THE PANEL<br />

OUR TEAM PUTS PRODUCTS TO THE TEST TO SEE IF<br />

THEY LIVE UP TO THEIR PROMISES.<br />

Skincare System<br />

superfoods and some with a natural<br />

System helps to replenish skin with vital<br />

hydrating nourishment, for a healthy,<br />

outdoor-fresh glow. The vegan-friendly<br />

50-SOMETHING #SEACHANGER<br />

Makes my skin feel so soft! These<br />

products are so luxurious.<br />

Best aspect? Plant-based superfoods<br />

– love it.<br />

I wish… there wasn’t so much<br />

plastic involved and there was an<br />

SPF in the day moisturiser; it is<br />

summer after all.<br />

Results? My skin did feel noticeably<br />

smoother and clearer, even if it was<br />

a little dry at first. It felt like I was<br />

piling oils on my skin for the first few<br />

days, but as my skin adjusted the<br />

products started to really work.<br />

With ingredients such as broccoli,<br />

chia seed oil, daikon radish and prebiotics,<br />

you feel you’re on the right<br />

track before you flip a lid.<br />

Best aspect? The pre-biotic gel<br />

cleanser. Applied to dry skin (then<br />

washed off), you know the product<br />

is going where it should.<br />

I wish… Sun protection was part<br />

of the package – as, with my skin<br />

confidence, make-up free weekends<br />

are frequent.<br />

Results? I was concerned the facial<br />

oil would lead to congestion, but<br />

instead I think this four-product<br />

skincare range has helped me to<br />

discover true skin balance.<br />

Love this range – like having a<br />

‘green goddess’ facial every day.<br />

Best aspect? The gentle awakening<br />

to evocative botanical scents as I<br />

massaged the cleanser into my skin.<br />

I wish… I was better at scheduling<br />

the evening cleanse and moisturise<br />

routine. And an exfoliator would<br />

be the icing on the (vegan) cake.<br />

Results? These gorgeous natural<br />

products deeply cleanse and<br />

plump the skin to a degree<br />

normally reserved for salon<br />

treatments. My skin surface has<br />

appreciably improved.<br />
