1 Brow power

RefectoCil Oxidant Cream blends easily with the brand’s desired tint colours and can be used with Blonde Brow to achieve the on-trend bleached brow effect. This cream uses a 3% 10 volume hydrogen peroxide formulation, as higher concentrations are not safe for use on lashes and brows and are not permitted by EU regulations.

2 Clever cleansing

The I Am Me Cleansing Cream, created by spa consultant Mimmie Lancaster, is suitable for all skin types and offers effective gentle cleansing of the skin for daily use. It does not strip the skin and removes dead skin cells on the surface, thus stimulating cell regeneration in the lower layers. This cleanser contains aloe vera, cucumber extract and rosehip seed oil for hydration, with niacinamide to reduce enlarged pores and strengthen the skin.

3 Skinovage Assortment relaunched

Babor has relaunched its Skinovage age-preventing assortment that works synergistically to preserve the health and youthfulness of skin by protecting it from oxidative damage and efficiently supporting the skin barrier before the first wrinkles appear. Extracts from Alpine rose is the main base ingredient of the range, with marine polysaccharide as its complement.

4 Real revamp

The Optiphi Facial Cleanser has undergone a revamp to include niancinamide (vitamin B5) and lipohydroxy acid to reduce breakouts, promote the production of collagen and encourage cell-by-cell exfoliation, thus boosting skin health and appearance. It is formulated at pH 5.5 so as to restore balance. Suitable also as a shaving medium and eye make-up remover, it includes salicylic acid and calms the skin during exfoliation.

5 Vital vitamin

The Neostrata 15% Vitamin C + PHA Serum is a clinically proven formula that gently exfoliates for brighter, more radiant skin in just one week. Unlike most vitamin C serums, this multiaction formula blends clinically proven antioxidants plus exfoliating polyhydroxy acid to help diminish visible skin discoloration and protect against external environmental aggressors.

6 TLB develops skincare range

After 10 years of development, TLB (The Laser Beautique) has introduced its very first skincare range, which works both on the epidermis and the deep dermal layers. Founder Tzvia Hermann has successfully proven results of the range with TLB’s technology facials (i.e. ultrasound, RF, near IF, microneedling). With TLB Scientific Skincare, the skin barrier is strengthened and collagen and fibroblast production is stimulated. Clients’ skin undergoes ultrasoundscanning to show the ‘before and after’.

7 Textured product

From Lamelle Research Laboratories, the Correctives AHA Re-Texture Solution (available in a concentration of 5% AHA as well as 8% AHA) is an extremely effective yet very gentle way to shift dead, dry, superficial skin cells. Formulated for those with combination or oily skin, it reveals instantly smoother, brighter-looking, more evenly toned complexion. It also helps keep pores free of debris and excess oil.
