MASTER THE AT-HOME FACIAL

Missed another appointment? We’ve all been there... With busy work weeks and back-to-back outings social plans, it’s no wonder that facial has been pushed to the bottom of your to-do list. Life hack: swap out the search for a last-minute slot and master the art of an at-home facial. Zen, incoming... 

Perfect for times when your skin is calling for a bit more TLC, Sunday Riley’s Good Genes range might just make you delete your aesthetician’s number once and pore all. We bet you’re wondering why you’d ever do such a thing? Allow us to explain... Backed by science-powered formulas that are balanced by botanicals, Sunday Riley’s everyday skin care essentials work to keep your complexion in tip-top shape. Think: daily dews designed to maintain your glow in-between visits. 

Wearing many hats (or lab coats, shall we say?), the Good Genes Glycolic Acid Treatment is formulated to minimise the look of sun damage, dark spots and plump super-fine lines. The star of the show? Glycolic acid molecules that team together to target pore-clogging foes and gently exfoliate the skin to reveal radiance beneath. All you need is a mirror, some scene-setting mood music and a pump of this featherlight blend of prickly pear extract, lemongrass extract and lactic acid for a touch of brightness.
