The Out-of-this-world Buy: Lancome Renergie Multi-lift Ultra Full Spectrum Anti-ageing Cream

The name says it all. Using what the brand calls “multi-tension technology”, this cream ($195) is said to penetrate the protein network across all five layers of skin to lift it from the inside out. What’s less obvious is the clever approach behind it. The brand tapped on European space agencies for advice because, well, who knows better about the effects of gravity? Bonus: The moisturiser also promises to help prevent the formation of dark spots by reducing the production of melanin. – MSY
