The Age Support Set
Gentle, not harsh - good for sensitive skin.
enzyme cleanser
Your face deserves a fresh, clean wipe every time. Don’t use the hand towel!!

I got this in an IPSY bag years ago and STILL buy it. It is so good for sensitive skin and very soothing.
Hey Honey Good Morning Silk Facial Serum 1oz
I use this daily, religiously. Such a multi-use product. Great as a base for makeup, mixed with foundation, or with a drop of bronzing cream… there are so many ways to use this. Gives a gorgeous glow and lasts all day.

Just second to Rhode's glazing milk, the highlight milk is the perfect summer addition to your makeup routine. Use as a highlighter or a base for summer makeup, or to give your face and body a light sunkissed shimmer.

My favourite mild facewash for days when I am not wearing makeup or want a gentle cleanse! Smells so good and leaves your skin feeling clean and silky, not stripped.

Use after doing your makeup and thorughout the day to give your skin a glow and to refresh your makeup.

For a luxury shower, the geranium leaf body cleanser is my go to. The scent is transformative.

I am not a huge mascara person but this one I love. It isn't clumpy and looks natural.

Skip the harsh towel drying and opt for these gentler and more absorbent towels.

An investment but one you won't regret. I have had mine for a few years and it's one of those things I can't imagine living without now. As someone who can't do a blowout if you paid me, this hair tool is SO user friendly.
