BIODERMA Sensibio H2O
“The BIODERMA Sensibio H2O would have to be one of my all-time favourite products! It was the very first micellar water I tried and the one I keep going back to time and time again. It’s not only gentle enough on my sensitive but it removes all traces of makeup without affecting my skin in any way. It’s one of those products that makes me panic when I’m nearing the end of the bottle, so I always have two or three backups ready to go!” – bh’s Aja
Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser
“It took me a good few years to find a face cleanser that was gentle on my skin without causing irritation or breakouts. This one by Cetaphil is an absolute treat in providing glowing skin without stripping any oils. The cleanser also comes in a travel size bottle that is mess free.” – bh’s Issy
M.A.C Studio Fix Fluid SPF15
“My all-time favourite product has been M.A.C Studio Fix Fluid SPF15. It is by far the best full-coverage, long-wear foundation I have ever used and blends effortlessly to create a flawless complexion. I started using this product more than 10 years ago and have never found another foundation that compares!” – bh’s Sam
NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser
“Even though all those BB and CC creams have created a huge hype in the last decade, my go-to base is still the NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser ($66, mecca.com.au). It has a great light-to-medium coverage, and gives my skin a radiant glow – especially on days where I’m looking less than perfect.” – bh’s Tina
Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm
“I have been using the Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm for years! It keeps my lips very hydrated and smooth, and it’s all natural too which is a bonus!” – bh’s Vanessa
Lucas Papaw Ointment
“Lucas Papaw Ointment ($6, priceline.com.au)! When I was in high school every girl (and I mean all 1,200 or so of us) carried the iconic red tube in our top blazer pockets; plus, in Canberra winter it was ESSENTIAL. I still carry a tube with me everywhere today and feel nervous if I don’t have any on me.” – bh’s Zoe
Sunday Riley Good Genes All-In-One Lactic Acid Treatment
“Sunday Riley Good Genes All-In-One Lactic Acid Treatment ($154, mecca.com.au) – After having this highly recommended to me by a fellow beauty editor, I took the plunge and bought it – and I’m so glad I did because this treatment does everything for my skin! I apply it every morning as a serum and the anti-ageing lactic acid exfoliates and plumps my skin, leaving it visibly brighter and smoother. Any little lines that are starting to develop are banished almost instantly and my uneven skin tone looks so much more balanced. I’ve even noticed less breakouts. LOVE!” – bh’s Kate
Jo Malone London Peony & Blush Suede Cologne
“One beauty product I’ve used almost every day for years is Jo Malone London Peony & Blush Suede Cologne. I’m really sensitive to scents so I struggle to find perfumes that I can tolerate, but I’ve gone through bottles of this one – it’s light, fruity and a little bit sweet without being overbearing, and always makes me feel good as soon as a spray it on! It also looks beautiful on the bathroom shelf.” – bh’s Beth
Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-In-Place Makeup SPF 10
“Ever since I first discovered Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-In-Place Makeup SPF 10, I’ve been hooked. It stays flawless all day, gives the BEST coverage and has never caused my skin to breakout. It’s been my HG for years!” – bh’s Sophie
Dermalogica PreCleanse
“I have been using this product for years and LOVE it! At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what cleanser I use I find nothing removes my makeup as well as it does when I use this product. It is an absolute must in any beauty routine and for any skin type. And a little bit goes a long way.” – bh’s Bianca
Johnson’s Daily Essentials Night Pampering Facial Cleansing Wipes
“I’ve been using these wipes since before I can remember. They were my first skincare-related beauty buy in my early teens, and I’ve never looked back. I love the way they feel on my skin – the cool, soothing sensation I get when I wipe my face on a hot day is the best feeling in the world. Mix that with soft, clean skin and you can’t beat it. I’ve tried other wipes, but nothing cleans off the day and makes me feel as fresh as the Johnson’s wipes.” – bh’s Astrid
Bumble and Bumble Prêt-à-Powder
I love the Bumble and Bumble Prêt-à-Powder ($39, mecca.com.au). A friend bought this for me a couple of years ago and now it’s one of my staples. I have a travel size that I always have in my makeup bag, it’s an all-in-one hair powder that adds volume and texture. This means I get to wash my hair less often, which is a serious bonus!” – bh’s Nadine
Dermalogica Skin Smoothing Cream
“For the past 20 years, I have been using the same moisturiser day and night. Of course working in the industry I have tried hundreds of products, however, I always go back to my faithful Skin Smoothing Cream. My skin is super sensitive and easily irritated and this is the one product I can trust to calm and soothe my skin while fighting off the signs of age. My skin is also dry & dehydrated and this incredible moisturiser instantly nourishes and hydrates. The cream is not too heavy and not too light and leaves me with a dewy complexion.” – bh’s Bree
The Body Shop Vitamin E Overnight Serum-in-Oil
“This is literally a wonder product. It nourishes the skin while you sleep so that in the morning it’s plump and evenly toned. Even when I’ve been swayed to try different night oils for a few months, I always return to this. It’s an absolute winner.” – bh’s Georgie
