TikTok users will be familiar with the viral Caudalie Vinergetic C+ Instant Detox mask that supposedly draws out all the oil and gunk from the pores instantly. Simultaneously, Caudalie has quietly released a new Vinopure Purifying Mask that promises similar results. This fast-acting formula is an impurity magnet that reduces all types of acne, from blemishes and blackheads to enlarged pores, almost instantly.

Suitable for acne-prone skin, the mask is made with 99% of natural origin ingredients such as Green Clay and Zinc. The best blend of anti-acne ingredients are packed in this mask to tackle blemishes effectively.

It can be tricky finding a body scrub that's effective yet gentle enough for delicate, dry skin. Well, meeth's new Silky Body Scrub might be the one as it contains sea salt from Ako city in Japan instead of harsh synthetic crystals used by most other scrubs.

Besides being gentle on the skin and making it silky smooth, sea salt is also rich in minerals, rejuvenates the skin, and has an antibacterial effect. The scrub also contains rockweed which tones the skin and apricot seeds for whitening and acne prevention.

After scrubbing the skin, you can let it sit for a while as the natural ingredients in it, such as pear juice, red algae and ceramide, tightens and polishes the skin.

The latest addition to Glow Recipe's Plum family, this hyaluronic cream has a weightless, whipped texture and is now housed in the brand's first-ever refillable glass jar with refillable pods.

Every pod is made of 50% post-consumer recycled material and the jars are made to last, so you'll only have to purchase one glass jar for a lifetime.

This creamy moisturiser is formulated to balance oiliness and is clinically tested to significantly increase skin moisture immediately for up to 72 hours. Five weights of hyaluronic acid, polyglutamic acid, and a blend of three antioxidant-rich plum extracts deliver hydration that plumps the skin.

You've heard of facial AHAs for skin brightening and anti-ageing benefits, but your body also deserves some TLC with chemical exfoliants.

Drunk Elephant's new body lotion is formulated with a 10% AHAs - glycolic, tartaric, lactic and citric acids - to gently exfoliate the skin, making bumpy, dull and uneven areas more radiant and smooth. A mix of soothing plant oils, moisturising butters and barrier-supporting electrolytes go deep to moisturise dry, irritable skin.

It also goes beyond moisturising to strengthen and replenish a compromised skin barrier, boosting the production of vital natural moisturising factors like ceramides and cholesterol.
