This launch is yet another testament to Dermalogica’s commitment to advanced skincare. It’s a silky serum formulated with a unique blend of ingredients, each chosen for its ability to support and enhance skin collagen, the protein responsible for skin’s firmness and elasticity, that sadly decreases with age.

Dermalogica tackles this issue head-on, not only by promoting collagen production but also by ‘banking’ it, ensuring your skin remains plump and youthful for longer. It uniquely preserves and promotes skin’s collagen through key ingredients like Pro Collagen Amino Acids and Pink Carnation Flower Extract, which firm and lift the skin, while Arginine PCA and Wild Indigo Extract work to enhance collage and the skin’s resilience and luminosity. Ideal for use in both morning and evening routines, this serum is a crucial step towards maintaining a youthful complexion.

Industry favourite MERIT, launched a new blush this month that has got everyone swooning. A creamy tint made up of microfine pigment powders, it melds seamlessly into skin for natural, enduring finish. It’s buildable and free from acne-triggering ingredients, and enriched with Vitamin E to nurture the skin. We also love MERIT’s sustainability, with packaging made from 43% recycled plastic, and other elements designed to be recyclable, reusable, or compostable.

Jo Malone CBE, a name synonymous with fragrance innovation, has launched four new additions to the Jo Loves Fragrance Paintbrush collection. Perfect for travel, handbag essentials, and on-the-go fragrance top-ups, these paintbrushes offer a brilliantly innovative way to apply fragrance on the go.

The four scents are: Amber, Lime & Bergamot, a vibrantly fresh and warm blend of lime, patchouli, amber and cedarwood; Rose Petal 25 is an ode to the timeless elegance of roses, featuring Rose de Mai Absolute and Ambrette Seed for a romantic scent; Ebony & Cassis is a deeper, more opulent scent, combining Blackberries, Cassis, Nutmeg, and Cedarwood; lastly Golden Gardenia is a sophisticated and exotic scent of Gardenia Petals, Suede Cardamom, and Grey Woods.

MZ Skin’s latest launch, the Advanced Retinol Complex Serum, is a lightweight, yet powerful concentrate designed to offer three key benefits. Firstly, it supports cell turnover to enhance the natural process of skin cell renewal. This leads to fresher, more vibrant skin, reducing the appearance of aging signs like wrinkles and fine lines. Secondly, it protects against free radicals (known culprits in skin ageing) to act as a shield. Finally, it controls oil production, ensuring that your skin maintains a balanced, healthy look without excessive shine.

As the final highlight in our January beauty lineup, Skinny Tan’s new Body Glow Lotion is a standout product to banish the winter blues.

A daily gradual tanner, it has a gorgeously buttery formula, so offers a large hit of hydration, which is perfect for this time of year when skin is at its driest. But it also delivers a lovely, natural looking tan. We’ve found that it’s fairly foolproof and while it takes a tiny bit longer to sink in than other gradual tans, the moisturising benefits and lovely coconut fragrance make it a joy to use.
