The $620 price tag might make you do a double take, but products from the Parisian house of Sisley can generally cost as much as (or more than) a wallet.
The $620 price tag might make you do a double take, but products from the Parisian house of Sisley can generally cost as much as (or more than) a wallet. What’s more unexpected is what this reportedly does: give the appearance of wrinkle-free skin. As ambitious – audacious even – as that might sound, it has a meticulous, multi-layered approach to back it. For starters, it optimises skin’s collagen content in more ways than one. Nutrient-rich porcelain cacao extract, for example, is used to stimulate production that might otherwise be hampered by factors like stress, while soy peptide and blue algae yeast extract activate fi broblasts (these produce collagen in the dermis). The latter two ingredients also give skin a boost of hyaluronic acid, while white willow leaf, rosehip and iris extracts have a protective and strengthening effect. In short, this serum claims to regenerate, nourish and defend skin cells all at once. Sounds like a shot at a plump, silky complexion to us. – SK
THE NEW “EFFORTLESS CHIC”: THE EVOLVED SUN-KISSED LOOK
Take a cue from brands like Altuzarra (above) and Molly Goddard, and one-up your workday get-up with this look that says “I just got back from vacay” (even though that was almost a month ago). Less golden Barbie than a fresh, warm glow that doesn’t hide imperfections such as freckles, it’s an everyday-friendly – and modern – approach to beach babe beauty: Dust bronzer over cheekbones and nose lightly for a slight sunburnt effect, then apply a tinge of highlighter to the chin and forehead. Sea salt-sprayed locks optional, but to keep them business-appropriate, slick them back. – SK
