Skincare

Best New Exfoliant

Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Active Blackheads Uprooting Scrub

Why it’s a winner: “I absolutely love thsi product, my sister bought it and i was guilty of trying it out, and havent regretted it since. ”¨it has dramatically reduced the number AND appearances of pimples and or black heads that i usually get, combined with the toner, smooth, dramatically less oily skin was just a major bonus. i love it for its extra affordable price as well, so i will continue to repurchase this!” – Tsuki

Best New Face Mask

Clinique Turnaround Instant Facial

Why it’s a winner: “Want glowing, fresh, vibrant skin in a hurry? Clinique’s Turnaround Instant Facial is my favourite choice. Applying this once a week was enough to keep my sensitive skin brightened, though it can be used 2-3 times weekly if desired. Applying a small amount over cleansed dry skin, I simply leave it on for 5minutes then using lukewarm water gently massage it’s granules over my face (avoiding eye area) and rinse off thoroughly. It works to exfoliate both physically while it sits on the skin and mechanically when massaged over the skin.” – goddesmagick

Best New Moisturiser – Day

Clinique Comfort on Call

Why it’s a winner: “I am a lover of Clinique and a victim of sensitive skin, so when BH announced the arrival of Comfort on Call, I was one VERY interested lady! I was so keen in fact, that I couldn’t wait for my sample to arrive so I headed to my nearest Clinique counter and spoke with the staff there. They were confident that this product would be ideal for my reactive skin and sent me home with a sample pot.” – jayne

Best New Moisturiser – Night

Trilogy AGE PROOF Replenishing Night Cream

Why it’s a winner: “This is worth the price not only for the wonderful natural ingredients that plump up the skin and make your skin feel just divine but the fact that it’s natural and is made in New Zealand, close to home. When you wake up in the morning skin is so smooth. Trilogy is a name to keep in mind, very worth every dollar.” – Gofton

Best New Age Management Product

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex

Why it’s a winner: “This high quality serum goes on so easily that you don’t have to apply very much – it spreads and soaks into the skin very quickly – I expect a full-sized bottle would last for ages. It’s non-greasy so I never, ever woke up with greasy skin problems and in fact, I could wear it during the day under my makeup without a problem. I generally suffer from an oily T-Zone so I have to watch what ‘rich’ products I use but with this Night Repair serum I had absolutely no problems at all.” – softness

Best New Spot Treatment

Neutrogena Rapid Clear Fight and Fade Spot Gel

Why it’s a winner: “After only a few days of use, I am delighted to report that my pimples are indeed disappearing quickly. What has surprised me most is that my heavily pigmented scars (lovely reminders of break-outs and sun exposure!!) are actually fading, as promised! I am so delighted that I have found something that truly works on my temperamental problem skin. I am getting faster results than I get from my more expensive lotions and potions.” – scentsation

Best New Eye Treatment

Mirenesse Power Lift Superstar Eye Serum

Why it’s a winner: “This is a great eye cream. It has a thick consistency but instantly absorbs into the skin. It really did iron out my fine lines. The packaging is brilliant – it’s a pump pack and one pump of the cream is the perfect amount for both eyes. Whilst this is expensive, it is worth every cent as it works and a little bit goes a long way and there is no wastage as the pump pack squirts out exactly the right amount.” – beautystar

Best New Wash/Cleanser

Neutrogena Wave Power Cleanser

Why it’s a winner: “I bought this a while back ago (obviously last year) and it was a great treat for my face. The vibrations gave a gentle massage to my face. I loved the foaming pads that they had provided, it made my skin smooth and silky feeling and on top of that my skin didn’t dry out after washing the product off my face.” – Nicoletmy

Best New Toner

Garnier Skin Naturals Pure Active Pimple Reducing Toner

Why it’s a winner: “This toner has got to be the best toner i’ve used thus far, its amazing. ”¨I cleanse my face and tone it with this wonder toner, and i find that my face doesnt turn into an oil slick after putting on my moisturiser. This is an achievement in itself, as i usually cleanse, tone and moisturise but i become oily, the only thing ive changed in my skin care regimen was the toner, and the difference was tremendous. One bottle lasts for a REALLY long time. ”¨So the price of th eproduct is REALLY worth the quality and how long the product lasts. Nice one Garnier!” – Tsuki
