My Reading Room
SULWHASOO ESSENTIAL FIRMING CREAM EX, $128.

This new and improved cream is said to strengthen the bond between cells and elastic fibres to give sagging skin or jowls a lift. Its creamy texture hydrates the skin and provides a non-greasy protective barrier while it firms.

CHANEL LE LIFT V-FLASH, $148.

Sounds miraculous, but we saw a slight lifting effect after just one application. The magic ingredient: an anti-ageing active that firms and smooths skin. It also has a vitamin B, C and E complex to boost luminosity.

DIOR PRESTIGE LA CREME TEXTURE LEGERE, $505.

A luxurious cream with Dior’s famous rose de Granville extract, this reduces the look of wrinkles and firms skin. With a matte finish that’s perfect for our climate, it has a breathable texture that keeps the skin hydrated while allowing perspiration to evaporate, so there’s no discomfort or stickiness.

My Reading Room
LA PRAIRIE SKIN CAVIAR ESSENCE-IN-LOTION, $400.

Talk about a fancy skin treat. This lotion is made with caviar water extracted via a steam distillation of caviar beads (most essencein- lotions use regular or spring water), and boasts lifting and firming benefits. We love the quick-absorbing formula and the powdery floral scent.
