Lighten Your Load

Let’s face it: Battling dark spots is no one’s idea of fun. Make your skin-brightening step more pleasant by including the SKII GenOptics Pen ($190) in your beauty box. Super handy for travellers, the finger-thin device comes with a magnetic applicator that’s said to boost product absorption by delivering ingredients three times more effectively than applying with your fingers. Simply place the tip of the applicator on your trouble zone, gently push the nozzle to dispense the product, then blend into skin by rotating the applicator.
