Helen’s note

Help keep the eyes looking brighter by keeping the peri-orbital area hydrated and invest in a good eyebrow treatment which helps draw the attention up.

Eye & Lip Cream Firms & Hydrates

£45.50 15ml

One rich cream for the two areas that show tiredness first. Low-weight hyaluronic acid plumps instantly, kigelia firms and helps lighten shadows, rosehip oil repairs, and pre- and probiotics strengthen the barrier. High levels of aloe make it suitable for the most sensitive eyes, and unlike many lip balms it doesn’t leave lips needing more.

Not sure it’s right for your skin?Ask Helen. A real reply, from a real person.

How to use
DAY + NIGHT
Twice daily, divide a small pump between the index fingers. Smooth gently over upper lid and below eye in an outward direction. Apply remainder to the skin around the lips. Follow with preferred moisturiser.

The routine

Where this fits

Step 1Cleanse

Never strip. Even oily skin needs a cleanser that leaves it comfortable. If you feel tight afterwards, it’s the wrong one.

Step 2Balance

Mists, toners and probiotics settle skin after cleansing, so everything that follows works harder.

Shop balance →
Step 3Treat

Your targeted serums. Layer thinnest to thickest, and keep vitamin A for the evening.

Step 4Protect

Daily SPF, every single day. The most effective anti-ageing step there is.
