I have to say, after delving into the world of cosmeceuticals, I’m a little bit addicted now!
Here’s a few of the products I can’t live without!
ASPECT GOLD Probiotic Sleep Mask ($55)
This probiotic rich sleep mask is a must for bedside table now!
It’s luxuriously rich, soothing, and give an unbelievable boost of hydration, all while you are sleeping!
My skin felt deeply nourished and it calmed down some of the uneven tone in my cheeks while sorting out the dry skin around the base of my nose.
I also noticed a difference in my forehead, after my second child I often get some discoloration there when I have too much sun and its hard to find a products that works on this discolouration – ASPECT’s sleep mask defiantly helped!
Its all helped clear up some blemishes on my 13 year-olds t-zone and was gentle enough for her skin too.
PCA SKIN Perfecting Neck and Décolleté ($110)
This is one product I never want to run out of!
Since turning 40 one of the things I notice the most about my changing skin and body is the skin on my chest. And I have to say; I don’t really like it… Its defiantly one of those signs of ageing and no doubt caused from too much sun, not enough sunscreen, and not enough moisture there too!
I notice it the most when I wake up in the morning, but applying Perfecting Neck and décolleté really does improve my skins moisture levels, and its appearance.
This product is designed to strengthen the fragile skin on your chest to minimise the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, skin discolouration, and redness, and I have to say I can really notice a difference.
ASPECT GOLD Eye Cream ($129)
A good eye cream can make the world of difference and this is one damn good eye cream!
Its rich in fatty acids to nourish, different triptides to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and dipeptide to battle puffiness.
I love it! It’s my go-to daytime eye cream and the first thing I apply in the morning.
Note to self – tub is nearly empty, be sure to order some more!!
ASPECT GOLD Envirostat SPF 50 ($26)
I really struggle to find a sunscreen that doesn’t cause breakouts in my t-zone and thank God, this one doesn’t! Maybe if I’d applied if years ago on my chest to protect from our crazy Australian sun, I wouldn’t need that neck and décolleté perfecting cream so much!
ASPECT GOLD Sheer Hydration Oil Free Moisturiser ($84)
I love this lightweight, hardworking moisturiser. It absorbs beautifully, smells divine, and makes my shin look smooth and even.
Plus, it’s packed full of ingredients that help the skin protect against free radicals and fights the visible signs of ageing – it’s a win-win!
