HUBISLAB Premium Active Derma Glow 3X Eye Cream 30g

Every winter, it seems to happen to so many of us. Our foundation that looked flawless only weeks before starts to look patchy. Concealer suddenly seems to settle into fine lines we didn’t even know we had! And the powder that usually sets our makeup beautifully suddenly looks… cakey. But what’s changed? Especially when our trusted skincare and makeup routine hasn’t? Unfortunately, winter weather, dry wind, and indoor heating completely change the way our skin behaves and in turn, how our makeup sits on our skin too. Want to know why this is happening and, more importantly, how to fix it? Keep reading…   1. Your skin is drier or more dehydrated than you realise The mistake most people make is keeping the exact same skincare routine year-round without adjusting for the season (I have been guilty myself of this!) That lightweight gel moisturiser you so love, and that's perfect for humid summer months is likely not providing nearly enough hydration in winter, leaving skin parched and uneven by the time you reach for your foundation! Even if your skin doesn't feel particularly dry, winter almost always means less moisture in the skin. Cold air contains less humidity, while indoor heating draws even more moisture away from your complexion. As your skin becomes dehydrated, it loses some of its smooth, plump appearance, leaving foundation with tiny dry areas to cling to. That's why your makeup may suddenly look flaky around your nose, cheeks or forehead, despite using exactly the same products you did a few weeks ago. How to fix it Hydration starts with your skincare. Look for ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, marine hydrators, glycerin and ceramides that help both attract, replenish and retain moisture creating a smoother canvas for makeup application. Our top product picks Hubislab Moisture Max Hyaluron 65% Ampoule Featuring a whopping 65% hyaluronic acid complex, this ampoule is a hydration hero (literally) when it comes to your skin, attracting and locking in moisture, helping to plump fine dehydration lines, strengthen the skin barrier and leave your complexion looking smoother, fresher and more radiant. Lightweight and fast absorbing, it creates the perfect hydrated canvas for flawless makeup application. Vie Collection Mesoforce Hydra Revitalizing Cream Inspired by professional mesotherapy treatments, this intensely hydrating cream combines Ceramides 1, 3 & 6 II, Hyaluronic Acid, Phytosphingosine, Cholesterol, Provitamin B5 and Vitamins C & E to deeply replenish moisture while repairing and strengthening the skin barrier. The result? Skin that feels softer, smoother and more comfortable, with a plumper, healthier-looking complexion that's ready for makeup. Phytomer Hydrasea Thirst Relief Rehydrating Mask And intensive mask that quite literally feeds the skin with deep nourishment. You can literally feel your complexion tighten and plump in nearly and instant and the end result is youthfully restored skin.  2. Dry patches become much more obvious Dry, flaky patches under foundation are one of the most frustrating winter makeup issues, and the instinct to pile on more product to cover them almost always makes things worse! More foundation on a flaky patch just creates a more visible flaky patch! Winter slows down your skin's natural cell turnover, meaning dead skin cells accumulate more easily. These rough patches grab onto foundation, creating those tell-tale flaky areas that no amount of blending seems to fix. How to fix it Gentle exfoliation once or twice a week removes the dead skin cell buildup that creates those flaky patches in the first place, allowing skincare to absorb more effectively and giving your makeup a smoother surface to work with. Gentle exfoliating acids or enzyme exfoliants rather than harsh scrubs are ideal for winter, especially if your skin feels sensitive. Enzyme exfoliants dissolve dead cells without stripping the skin. Our top product picks Pevonia Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser If dry, flaky skin is causing your foundation to cling in all the wrong places, this gentle exfoliating cleanser is the perfect first step. Formulated with Jojoba Beads, Chamomile and Aloe Vera, it buffs away dull, flaky skin without irritation while soothing and hydrating the complexion. The result is skin that feels softer, smoother and perfectly prepped for makeup application. Phytomer Vegetal Exfoliant with Natural Enzymes If your foundation is catching on dry, flaky patches, this gentle enzyme exfoliant is a winter skincare essential! Formulated with Papain (Papaya Enzyme) to dissolve dead skin cells, together with Kaolin Clay, antioxidant Vitamin E and conditioning Laminaria Digitata (Brown Algae) Extract, it smooths rough texture without aggressive scrubbing. The result is softer, more refined skin and a beautifully even canvas that helps makeup glide on effortlessly. Tip: Also avoid setting dry areas with powder, powder on dry skin emphasises texture and dryness rather than concealing it. If you need to set your makeup, use powder only on the areas that genuinely need it (typically the T-zone) and leave drier areas untouched. And apply your foundation with a damp sponge. This temporarily softens and smooths the area, allowing foundation to sit far more evenly.   3. Your concealer looks patchy under your eyes Winter dehydration hits the under-eye area particularly hard (the skin here is the thinnest on the face and has almost no oil glands to help it retain moisture.) The result in winter is concealer that creases almost immediately, settles into fine lines and looks dry and cakey rather than bright and concealing. How to fix it Apply your eye cream first and give it a full minute to absorb before touching your concealer! Then apply a small amount of concealer with your ring finger (the gentlest of all your fingers) using a tapping rather than a rubbing motion. This prevents dragging the delicate skin and helps the product melt into the area rather than sitting on top of it. If creasing is a persistent problem, try applying a tiny amount of hydrating primer or even a dot of hyaluronic acid serum under your concealer before setting. Skip the powder under the eye entirely in winter, instead, gently press the concealer with your ring finger to set it naturally, which gives a more skin-like, less cakey finish. Our top product picks; Pevonia Age Correction Eye Contour This power repair eye contour gives tired, dehydrated eyes the burst of hydration they need! Deeply nourishing and decongesting thanks to its combination of marine collagen, hyaluronic acid, green tea and marine elastin, it firms and smooths skin while visibly reducing puffiness, dark circles and fine lines ELES Dual Action Concealer If your concealer has suddenly started settling into fine lines, this multi-tasking formula is well worth the switch. Infused with Peptides, Caffeine, vitamin C, vitamin e and Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, it hydrates and plumps the delicate eye area. It applies so smoothly (even when using your finger) and best of all no caking or sitting in your fine lines and wrinkles! What’s more light-reflecting pigments instantly brighten dark circles, leaving the under-eye area looking smoother, and fresher!  4. Your skin barrier needs extra support Your skin barrier is like your complexion's protective shield. During winter it works overtime defending against cold wind, low humidity and heated indoor environments. When that barrier becomes weakened, moisture escapes more easily and skin becomes rougher, tighter and often more sensitive. Makeup has a much harder time sitting smoothly on compromised skin. How to fix it Focus on repairing your barrier before trying to perfect your makeup. Ingredients such as ceramides, panthenol, squalane and nourishing botanical oils help restore comfort while improving the way foundation sits on the skin. Our top product picks Phytomer Douceur Intemporelle Restorative Shield Cream When winter leaves your skin feeling dry, tight or easily irritated, this comforting moisturiser helps restore calm and resilience. Formulated with Ceramides, Vitamin B5, Squalane and Shea Butter, it deeply nourishes while strengthening the skin barrier, reducing redness and helping protect against environmental stressors. Silky and luxurious without feeling heavy, it leaves skin feeling soothed, hydrated and beautifully comfortable. And if you are after a little (or should I say a lot of luxury) we can’t recommend enough the; Phytomer Perles Des Mers Longevity Cream If you're looking for the ultimate luxury winter moisturiser, this is it. Rich in Ceramides, Vitamin B3, bio-fermented marine micro-pearls, Chlorella, Brown Algae, Sea Lily and PHYTOMER's iconic Oligomer®, this indulgent balm-like cream combines intensive nourishment with barrier support to restore comfort, hydration, firmness and radiance all in one! It melts beautifully into the skin, leaving even the driest winter complexions looking smoother, healthier and beautifully revitalised. 5. You're rushing your skin prep This is one of the biggest mistakes people make. After applying your skincare, it's tempting to jump straight into foundation. But if your moisturiser or serum hasn't had time to absorb, makeup can slide around, pill or separate throughout the day. Equally, applying foundation onto skin that hasn't been moisturised enough can leave it looking flat and patchy almost immediately. How to fix it Allow your skincare to absorb for five to ten minutes before applying makeup. If your skin still feels tight, add another light layer of moisturiser rather than piling on more foundation.   6. You're skipping primer (or using the wrong one) If you're not using a primer this winter, now is the time to start! And if you are using one, it might be time to switch to a formula better suited to the season! Mattifying primers (brilliant in summer for controlling shine) can actually exacerbate dry patches in winter, drawing moisture away from already dehydrated skin and creating an even flakier base for foundation. What your skin needs instead is a hydrating, skin-conditioning primer that smooths the surface, fills in fine lines and creates a comfortable, plump base for makeup to adhere to. Product picks Retexture Crème Face Primer It’s a soothing, lightweight serum-like primer that protects, conditions, smooths and blurs imperfections, while deeply hydrating and calming the skin at the same time. It's enriched with aloe, chamomile, witch hazel and marigold, making it genuinely skin-caring rather than just a makeup step and in winter, that distinction matters enormously. Think of your primer as the bridge between your skincare and your makeup. Get this step right and everything that goes on top performs significantly better. If your skin is particularly dry, you may even find you need less foundation once your primer is doing its job properly. 7. Your foundation formula may need changing You’ve likely become loyal to your foundation, just as we do with our skincare but a matte or long-wear formula that performs beautifully during humid summer months may suddenly feel too drying during winter. For winter, it’s best to use a foundation with a satin or dewy finish rather than matte, as these are more forgiving on drier skin and less likely to emphasise texture. Formulas containing hydrating ingredients (again hyaluronic acid, glycerin, botanical oils) that actively moisturise the skin while you wear them, rather than sitting on top of it. Product picks ELES HD Mineral Satin Foundation SPF15 Infused with Hyaluronic Acid, Squalane, Green Tea and Marigold Extract, this lightweight mineral foundation helps keep skin comfortable and hydrated while delivering buildable coverage with a beautiful satin finish. Light-reflecting mineral pigments softly blur pores and imperfections, leaving your complexion looking smooth, fresh and naturally radiant all day. ELES Mineral Glow Skin Tint SPF15 Perfect for those who prefer a lighter, more natural finish, this mineral skin tint delivers sheer, buildable coverage with a healthy, dewy glow. Enriched with Hyaluronic Acid, Squalane, Glycerin and antioxidant-rich botanical extracts including Pomegranate, Sea Buckthorn, Kiwi and Cucumber, it hydrates and nourishes the skin while evening out the complexion. Mineral SPF15 provides everyday protection, making it the perfect choice when your winter skin needs a little extra moisture and radiance without feeling heavy. Both of our recommended foundations provide beautiful coverage while maintaining a more natural, radiant finish that's particularly flattering during the cooler months. That said, you don't necessarily need to replace your foundation altogether, you could just try and mix a drop of hydrating serum for a softer finish. If you find your usual foundation is still looking patchy despite good prep, try applying it with a damp beauty sponge rather than a brush. A damp sponge sheers out the product more evenly, deposits less into fine lines and dry patches, and gives a more natural, skin-like finish that's particularly flattering on winter skin.   8. Less really is more When your makeup doesn't look quite right, it's easy to keep adding more product. More foundation.More concealer.More powder. Unfortunately, every extra layer only emphasises texture, dryness and fine lines. Instead, focus on beautifully prepared skin and apply thin, lightweight layers where you actually need them. You'll often achieve a far more natural, youthful-looking result.   A few final winter makeup tips worth knowing Don't skip SPF. It feels counterintuitive in winter but UV exposure continues year-round and is one of the biggest drivers of the uneven, dull skin tone that makes foundation look worse. An SPF underneath your makeup is non-negotiable. Mist throughout the day. A hydrating facial mist spritzed over your finished makeup not only refreshes your look midday but adds a layer of hydration that helps everything sit better. Look for one with hyaluronic acid or rosewater rather than a setting spray, which can be drying. Less powder, more pressing. In winter, powder is your makeup's enemy. Use as little as possible, apply only where you genuinely need it, and press rather than sweep it on to avoid disturbing the layers underneath. Warm your products before applying. Cold foundation applied straight from a cool bathroom applies less evenly than product that's been warmed slightly between your fingertips first. A small thing that makes a noticeable difference.   If your makeup has suddenly started looking dry, patchy or cakey this winter, don't be too quick to replace every product in your makeup bag. More often than not, your skin is simply asking for a little extra care. By boosting hydration, supporting your skin barrier, gently exfoliating and taking a little more time with your skin prep, you'll create the smooth canvas your makeup needs to perform at its best!

If your skin suddenly feels tight, flaky, or just…uncomfortable the moment winter hits, it’s not just the change in season to blame! Cold air, indoor heating, and harsh winds can of course wreak havoc on our skin, but surprisingly, some of our everyday habits can make things so much worse! From using the wrong moisturiser to skipping SPF, these common mistakes can weaken our skin barrier and leave our complexion dehydrated, flaky and irritated! Keep reading as we reveal the 7 most common mistakes that could be drying out your skin this winter, and exactly how to fix them. Why is your skin so dry in winter? Before we get into the mistakes, it helps to understand what's actually happening to your skin when the temperature drops. Cold air holds significantly less moisture than warm air, which means every time you step outside in winter, the air is actively drawing hydration away from your skin. Step back inside and you're met with heating, which does exactly the same thing (just in a warmer environment). Add wind exposure, hot showers and the natural slowdown in oil production that cooler temperatures cause, and your skin's moisture barrier is under attack from almost every direction! The result is a barrier that becomes progressively more compromised and less able to hold onto water, more reactive to products, and slower to repair itself! Most of the mistakes below make this worse without people ever realising it.   7 mistakes you could be making Mistake 1: Your showers are too hot Who isn’t guilt of turning up the heat in that steamy shower when the weather is cold outside? It's one of the most understandable and of course common habits! Unfortunately, hot water strips the skin of its natural oils far more aggressively far more than we’d like to think, compromising your moisture barrier and leaving skin feeling tight and dry within minutes of stepping out. The fix: Turn the temperature down (yes of course that’s obviously but the difference from a hot, hot shower to a warm shower (still lovely of course) can make a significant difference, and better still try to keep showers to around five minutes. The as soon as you get out apply your body (and face) moisturiser within a few minutes while your skin is still slightly damp, this trick locks in the residual moisture rather than letting it evaporate. Try: Pevonia Preserve Body Moisturiser   This lightweight, yet deeply nourishing body cream is packed with soothing and repairing botanicals, Vitamins B, C and E, and Alpha Hydroxy Acids. Gently massage into skin and see how it instantly improves your skin’s texture! Wonderfully hydrating it locks in goodness, restoring elasticity and leaving skin silky-soft and radiant.   Mistake 2: You're using the same cleanser you use in summer You might well love your current cleanser, the faithful product you’ve been using for years, but a foaming or gel cleanser that works beautifully in summer can become too stripping in winter, particularly if your skin is already dry or your barrier is compromised. If your skin feels tight immediately after cleansing, your cleanser is very likely the culprit! The fix: Switch to a gentle, non-foaming cream or milk cleanser for the colder months. These cleanse effectively without disrupting the skin's natural oils, leaving your barrier intact and your skin comfortable rather than squeaky clean. If you're not ready to change your cleanser entirely, try using it only morning or night. Try: Pevonia Hydrating Cleanser Thanks to its outstanding combination of marine collagen, marine elastin, hyaluronic acid and glycerin, this nourishing, creamy textured cleanser thoroughly removes skin impurities and excess oil without any residue, all whilst helping to preserve your skin’s moisture too! Mistake 3: You're skipping the hydrating serum and going straight to moisturiser This is one of the most common mistakes we see and it means your moisturiser is working much harder than it needs to. Moisturisers are designed to seal in hydration (from your shower or serum), not magically create it from nowhere. Without a hydrating serum underneath, you're skipping the step that actually hydrates your skin (so your moisturiser has nothing to seal in.) The fix: Add a hydrating serum (ideally one containing hyaluronic acid) underneath your moisturiser, and apply it to slightly damp skin for the best results. This gives your moisturiser actual hydration to lock in, and the difference in how your skin feels throughout the day is usually immediate and noticeable. Try: Pevonia Hyaluronic Acid Hydra Serum The ultimate for seriously thirsty skin, this serum eliminates dryness almost instantly as it quite literally blasts even the most dehydrated of complexions with a surge of moisture, maintaining surface hydration throughout the day. By adding moisture back into your skin, this serum immediately boosts skin’s suppleness and combats ageing in multiple ways thanks to its skin-plumping properties.  Mistake 4: You've switched to a heavier moisturiser but your skin is still dry Reaching for a richer moisturiser when skin feels dry is the most logical response we know and in theory it’s what you should be doing since the lighter moisturisers we use in the summer is never usually enough, but if your skin barrier is already compromised, a heavy cream can sit on top of the skin rather than absorbing into it, making skin feel temporarily better without actually addressing the underlying dehydration. The fix: Look for a moisturiser that contains barrier-repairing ingredients like ceramides and fatty acids alongside your hydrating actives. These don't just add moisture they help rebuild the barrier so your skin can start retaining hydration on its own again. Layering a facial oil over your moisturiser at night is also a highly effective way to reduce overnight water loss and wake up with noticeably more comfortable skin. Try: Phytomer Nutritionelle Dry Skin Rescue Cream Salvation for even the most dry as a desert skin! This intense therapy cream infused with Ceramides (NP, AP, EOP) and a cocktail of marine and plant oils including organic glasswort, organic buckwheat, apricot kernel, shea butter and hydrafusion, provides immediate relief, comfort and visible improvement to dry skin. Say goodbye to tight, uncomfortable and parched skin and hello to a suppler, soft and visibly plumped complexion!   Mistake 5: You've stopped exfoliating, or you're doing it too often This one goes both ways. Some people avoid exfoliation entirely in winter because their skin feels sensitive, which allows a buildup of dead skin cells that prevents everything else in their routine from absorbing properly. Others over-exfoliate in an attempt to remove flaky, dry patches, which strips the barrier further and worsens the problem. The fix: Keep exfoliation in your routine but reduce frequency if needed, once a week is often enough in winter for most skin types. Choose a gentle chemical exfoliant over a physical scrub, as these dissolve dead cells without the physical friction that can aggravate already-sensitised skin. If your skin is particularly reactive, a low-concentration lactic acid is one of the gentlest options available and has the added benefit of drawing moisture into the skin as it exfoliates. Try: Phytomer Vegetal Exfoliant with Natural Enzymes This soft, yet highly effective exfoliant for even the most sensitive or rosacea prone skin, uses natural enzymes to encourage cell turnover without scrubbing or irritating skin. It’s a Phytomer global best-seller and for good reason! Mistake 6: You've stopped wearing SPF It's a deeply common misconception that SPF is only necessary in summer or on sunny days (even though you know I tell you to wear SPF daily come rain, hail or shine!). UV rays (particularly UVA rays, which are responsible for premature ageing and pigmentation) are present year-round, penetrate through cloud cover, and come through glass, which means your skin is exposed even when you're sitting near a window indoors (crazy right?) The fix: SPF doesn't stop at the end of summer. A broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every single morning is non-negotiable regardless of the season, and in winter it becomes even more important if you're using actives like retinol or acids that increase sun sensitivity. If the texture of your usual SPF feels too heavy in winter, look for a hydrating SPF that doubles as a moisturiser, it simplifies your routine and removes the barrier to using it consistently. Try: Hubislab Post Rays UV Protect Sun Block 50g SPF50 If you've ever skipped sunscreen because it feels heavy, greasy or leaves a white cast, this may change your mind. Hubislab's Post Rays UV Protect Sun Block combines broad-spectrum SPF50+ protection with a lightweight, breathable texture that absorbs quickly and leaves skin feeling comfortable all day. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and reactive skin, it also contains soothing botanical extracts and antioxidants to help calm, protect and support the skin barrier. The added tone-up effect gives skin a healthy, radiant finish, making it an excellent everyday sunscreen and makeup base. Mistake 7: You're drinking less water and not compensating topically Cold weather suppresses the sensation of thirst, which means most of us are mildly dehydrated throughout winter without realising it! Unfortunately, dehydration shows up in the skin quickly, increasing the appearance of fine lines, making skin look dull and flat, and making dry patches harder to shift no matter what you apply topically! The fix: Now you know this, make a conscious effort to maintain your water intake through winter even when you don't feel thirsty! If you simply can’t bring yourself to drink another glass of water, herbal teas are an excellent way to keep yourself hydrated!   Dry winter skin is extremely common but it's rarely inevitable. More often than not, a few small adjustments to your routine and habits make a significant difference without needing to overhaul everything at once. Start with the mistakes that sound most like yours, make one or two changes, and give your skin two to three weeks to respond before reassessing. I promise you’ll notice a significant difference!

Let’s be completely honest, by the time we hit our 40s and beyond, we do not have the time or the patience for a complicated 10-step skincare routine that delivers mediocre results. We want quality, we want advanced ingredients, and we want to see visible changes when we look in the mirror! Treating mature skin effectively isn't about throwing the strongest acid at our face or overloading our skin with trendy products filled with shallow promises! It’s about investing in formulas that firm, plump, and protect your skin barrier while supporting collagen production and long-term skin health. Keep reading for the youth boosting skincare we always recommend for women over 40.   The skincare ingredients women over 40 should actually be using Before we get into the products themselves, it’s important to understand the ingredients that genuinely make a visible difference to ageing skin. As we age, our skin naturally produces less collagen, loses elasticity and becomes drier, thinner and more reactive. The right active ingredients can dramatically improve hydration, firmness, brightness and overall skin health while helping skin look smoother, plumper and more radiant. These are the ingredients we believe are truly worth investing in when it comes to age-defying skincare: Exosomes – Help support skin renewal, repair and collagen production. Peptides – Support firmer, stronger-looking skin by encouraging collagen production. Retinol – The gold-standard anti-ageing ingredient for smoothing wrinkles and improving skin texture. Vitamin C – Brightens skin, boosts radiance and helps defend against free radical damage. Collagen – Helps improve skin firmness, hydration and elasticity. Hyaluronic Acid – Intensely hydrates and plumps the skin for a smoother, fresher appearance.   The anti-ageing products we always recommend\ The serums The investment: Hubislab MineExo Peptide Ampoule Why it’s worth it: This high-performance serum is a standout for anyone looking to restore, firm, and deeply hydrate their skin. Powered by Exosome Technology (one of the most talked-about innovations in advanced skincare right now!) It helps support skin renewal by improving the delivery of powerful actives where they are needed most. It delivers peptides, growth factors, and antioxidants deep into the skin to stimulate collagen, improve elasticity, soften the look of wrinkles and protect the skin barrier! Hyaluronic acid and hydrolyzed collagen deeply hydrate skin, while a powerhouse vitamin complex including retinol, vitamin C and vitamin E brightens and helps defend against free radical damage. “This serum gives the skin the most amount of plumping you can see the transformation before your very eyes. Skin feels hydrated and fine line disappear within days of using it.” – Shelley Veitch   The investment: Vie Collection Serum De Vie – High Performance Youth Concentrate Why it’s worth it: For those serious about combating the signs of ageing, this powerful, beautifully nourishing serum is a game-changer. Its advanced formula works at a cellular level to protect skin cells while targeting fine lines, wrinkles, loss of elasticity and hyperpigmentation, helping to restore a youthful, firm and smooth complexion. With its powerful blend of antioxidants, vitamin B3 and EGF-like peptides, it helps to stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity while niacinamide slows the transfer of melanin to key parts of the skin to fade the look of dark spots and age spots. It’s the ultimate weapon in your anti-ageing arsenal, believe me! “This is the best serum! I’m on my second bottle, I can see that my face improves a lot, more bright, healthy and firmer!” – Sarah M.    The moisturisers The investment: Vie Collection Time Control Deep Wrinkles Firming Rich Cream Why it’s worth it: This advanced corrective cream was created in conjunction with a respected Cosmetic Surgeon to help enhance the appearance of ageing skin and support the visible results of cosmetic procedures such as BotoxTM and fillers, while also offering a powerful non-invasive alternative for those wanting impressive anti-ageing results without interventions. Highly concentrated with advanced anti-ageing and nourishing ingredients including pro-collagen peptides, hyaluronic acid, EGF-like peptides, trace elements and minerals. It effectively helps to enhance skin elasticity, reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles and soothe the discomfort that thin and mature skin types can experience. You’ll notice immediate results as skin feels and appears smoother, softer and more supple and after continued use wrinkles are visibly filled and skin is noticeably firmer. Outstanding stuff! “I have been using this firming cream for a month now and I can honestly say it has reduced the appearance of even my deepest wrinkles! I was even asked if I’d had botox the other day! Winning!” – Anne K The investment: Pevonia’s Micro-Retinol Essential Moisturiser Why it’s worth it: If you invest in only one treatment for ageing skin, make it a high-quality retinol cream! When it comes to anti-ageing, retinol (vitamin A) remains the holy grail of skincare and one of the most important ingredients to incorporate into your routine, even if you have sensitive skin! Why? Because it tells sluggish skin cells to speed up their turnover, effectively smoothing out texture and fine lines from the inside out! The problem? Many people are afraid to use retinol because so many retinol products on the market are overly harsh leaving skin red, flaky, irritated and dehydrated which can actually make skin appear more aged and compromised! That’s exactly why Pevonia’s Micro-Retinol range stands out. Using an advanced stabilised delivery system, this next-generation formula delivers all the incredible benefits of Retinol while remaining beautifully hydrating, soothing and far gentler on the skin than traditional Retinol products! Formulated with Retinol, Vitamin C, Marine Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid and nourishing Squalane, this powerhouse moisturiser works to smooth fine lines, brighten uneven skin tone, deeply hydrate and restore firmness without the irritation commonly associated with Vitamin A products. It truly is the ultimate all-rounder for mature skin! “This is the most beautiful cream I have ever used; light texture, non greasy, non shiny. Changes in my skin are an increased smoothing of lines and crepe-skin areas, softening, hydrating and contouring, and reduced pigmentation. Some results were instantly visible and now after three weeks my skin just keeps improving. I am 60 and tried this after other brands became ineffective. Now my skin appears luminous and more refined. So, I am going to purchase the whole range. Its a surprise to see a brighter smoother complexion at my age.” – Annie The Investment: Pevonia Age Correction Marine Collagen Cream Why it’s worth it: To fight the structural slackness that happens as collagen levels naturally decline, your daily moisturiser needs to do heavy lifting! You need a lipid-rich formula that mimics the skin's natural proteins to bring back that signature "bounce” and boy does this cream deliver!

Infused with pure Marine Collagen, hyaluronic acid and deeply nourishing Squalane, it wraps dry, depleted skin in a velvety layer of hydration. It immediately plumps the appearance of fine lines, firms the skin structure, and protects against the free radicals that accelerate ageing. “I love this daily face cream....I use it morning and night! My skin looks and feels amazing. I'm 52 and am told constantly that I look so young...” – Linda And if your skin is on the more sensitive side… The investment: Phytomer Expert Youth Wrinkle Plumping Cream Why it’s worth it: If your skin has become increasingly reactive, dry or sensitised with age, this luxurious cream is an absolute standout. It delivers powerful anti-ageing benefits while remaining incredibly comforting and gentle on fragile skin. Formulated with marine biotechnology ingredients and advanced wrinkle-plumping actives, it deeply nourishes, smooths fine lines, restores softness and helps strengthen the skin barrier without irritation. “If you are looking for a beautiful nourishing moisturiser to help with fine lines and wrinkles while being soothing and nourishing for ageing, dry and sensitive skin, then give this a try! I highly recommend!” –  Sally W. The Masks The Investment: Vie Collection Mesoforce Hyaluronic Acid Vitamin Mask Why it’s worth it: For those days when your skin looks genuinely tired, dull, or lacking volume, a standard hydrating mask won't cut it.

It drenches the skin in a concentrated cocktail of Hyaluronic Acid and potent vitamins to instantly restore volume, deeply hydrate, and deliver a spectacular, lit-from-within glow that makes it look like you’ve just stepped out of a high-end skin clinic. “This product is amazing.

Infused with Marine Collagen, Hyaluronic Acid and deeply hydrating actives, it visibly plumps fine lines, restores softness and leaves skin looking smoother, firmer and more radiant after just one use.

Love the plump effect it leaves my skin looking too!” – Stacey Harrison The Eye Creams  The investment: Vie Collection Chrono Eyes Puffiness Dark Circles Wrinkle Cream Why it’s worth it: The eye area is often the first place ageing starts to show, and this powerhouse eye cream targets every concern at once, we are talking puffiness, dark circles, fine lines and loss of firmness!
