Big news in beauty

• Recently chatting to French Vogue Hailey Beiber revealed her love for Weleda’s Skin Food range. “I love the Weleda Skin Food [range]. It’s so creamy and rich, so you only need a little tiny bit in the areas where I feel like I get a little bit more dry under my makeup. For me, that’s around the nose, that’s under the eyes. My eyes are really sensitive, especially when I sleep. They tear up and get irritated. So I feel like this actually helps me a lot with that. It’s so juicy and dewy”. And her Weleda love is amongst famous company with Emily Ratajkowski also recently sharing her beauty secrets involved using the thick Weleda Skin Food Moisturiser. 
• Swisse have recently revealed the launch of an exciting new product range. But what makes this launch so notable is its commitment to overthrow the  pimple to person power dynamic. Co-developed with dermatologist this latest skincare range works to rebalance and renew acne prone skin.
• ICYMI: Dermal Therapy’s Overnight Lip Repair has sold out again! This iconic mask that is clinically proven to give you visibly softer, hydrated plumper lips in eight hours has sold out twice in eight weeks! If you ever see it on the shelf, grab it!

Antipodes Baptise Water Gel Moisturiser

This water gel moisturiser has just nabbed the runner up spot for the Best New Zealand Homegrown Product in our 2023 Best in Beauty Awards. And if you’ve been living under a rock the past few months, it’s worth noting that water gel moisturisers are all the rage, as they’re perfect for a heavy hit of hydration but still offer a lightweight feel.
