STEP 1: CLEANSER
Orbis = U White Jelly Wash, $33.
I was wowed by how soft my skin felt after using this cleanser, which removes pore-clogging impurities to enhance the penetration of subsequent skincare.
STEP 2: ESSENCE
Guerlain Blanc de Perle White P.E.A.R.L. Rosy Whitening Essence, $203.
This evens out skin tone and brightens dark spots with cherry extracts and the brand’s P.E.A.R.L. Rosy White Complex. I loved how quickly the lightweight essence sank into skin.
STEP 3: CREAM
Albion Exage White Bright Dew Cream, $100.
This balm-like cream has blemish-lightening fruit extracts, and is enriched with candelilla wax to combat dryness and dehydration. I used it for two weeks and noticed a clearer, plumper visage.
STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES
Here’s what we love about the latest scents with this classic floral note.
Yves Saint Laurent Paris Premieres Roses 2016, $129. Notes of neroli and violet leaves give this rose fragrance a fresh and modern spin.
Narciso Rodriguez Narciso EDP Poudree, $150. Love musky, powdery scents? This woody white floral, with notes of Bulgarian rose, musk, jasmine and vetiver, smells at once delicate and sensual.
Bulgari Le Gemme Imperiali Desiria EDP, $534.Inspired by the rare violet jade, this scent is grown-up and glamorous with notes of rose, tuberose and magnolia. We’d reserve this for date nights and dressy events.
