Icelandic Eye Relief Pen, €24, SKYN ICELAND
If you’re not getting enough sleep or drinking enough water, the skin around the around the eyes can be your fastest traitor. This telling area is subject to puffiness, wrinkles and dark circles, so you do need a specific skincare step to avoid these concerns. This nifty little pen contains a blend of soothing ingredients, including Flavagrum to increase circulation to lighten dark under-eye circles, rice peptides help preserve collagen and elastin to reduce the signs of ageing, orange peel to help reduce puffiness and cotton powder to act as a light-diffuser and brighten the entire eye area.
Face Precision Wax and Care, €12.49, Veet
As beauty buys go this is not a sexy one, but if you’re saddled with unwanted facial hair you’ll know that a good removal tool is an invaluable part of your beauty regime. Specially developed for facial hair removal, this tube lets you apply a precise amount of wax exactly where you need it – whether it’s your eyebrows, upper lip or chin that needs attention. It’s tricky the first time out, but with a little bit of practice this little gem will become a fixed part of your routine.
ck one summer, €40.60 for 100ml, Calvin Klein
The sun is out, so it’s the perfect time to put away your heavier winter perfumes and indulge in a light, fresh, sunny scent. ck one summer opens with bright, colorful citrus notes of frozen lime, grapefruit and melon. A cooling cocktail of white freesia and fresh cypress is mixed with an exotic tequila accord for an energetic vibe at the heart, while hydrating coconut water, cedarwood and crushed sugar linger for a long-lasting dry down. The iconic ck one bottle gets an update too, taking on a luminous blue, green and yellow tone that simply screams summer.
