The BD team trial a new slew of skincare saviours.

I've been using Environ products for the past five years now after being recommended them by a friend at work. Being a beauty editor, I have to be rather promiscuous with my skincare – but I do always return home to Environ. The latest two products I've been trying from the brand are the Youth EssentiA Antioxidant Defence Crème and Youth EssentiA Vita-Peptide C-Quence Serum 1. Packed full of vitamins, antioxidants and peptides – there's nothing like an Environ product to get your skin looking its best. This duo hit counters just last month, but is sure to attract a cult following from skincare devotees. - Yelena
Sometimes I wonder if you really need to spend big dollars on skincare. Then something like the Guerlain Orchidée Impériale Gel Cream lands on my desk and I’m just blown away. The Gold Orchid Technology formulation is super revitalising, leaving my skin feeling refreshed and supple. I guess some things are worth spending more on (cheese and wine also being in that club) and skincare is definitely something I’m now willing to invest in. - Kelly
Whenever I use fake tan, my one complaint is that after a day or two my face looks a few shades lighter than my body. The Tuscan Tan® Facial Tanning Serum worked wonders at transforming my pale complexion into one with a warm golden glow, making my tan look natural. I applied it evenly across my entire face then washed the excess off my hands – simple! It develops even further over a few hours and left me looking instantly more luminous. - Laura
Just like Pokémon Go and Birkenstocks, there is a whole lot of hoopla surrounding rosehip oil. In an effort to silence the preachers I tried it for myself and accidentally joined the bandwagon. Rather like a superhero of the beauty world, there’s little that rosehip oil can’t do. Kosmea’s Certified Organic Rose Hip Oil is a pure extract of the seed – a super slick powerhouse of vitamins and antioxidants that tackles sun damage, fine lines, sensitivity, acne, and (most importantly for my case of winter face) a decent dose of hydration with every use. - Sarah
As a young lass, I want to prevent ageing but I don’t need the active ingredients that are in so many of the popular skincare options on the market. I absolutely ADORE the Rosehip Collagen Repair Serum by Essano as it’s full of beautiful natural ingredients that really work on my skin. On top of rosehip oil, the formula contains a lovely blend of blackberry leaf extract, jojoba oil, sunflower oil, and vitamins B3, B5, C and E – all of which create a smooth and dewy complexion. - Vanessa
