Launching just this month, this divine little brand is the newest kid on the beauty block. But don’t let age fool you, because Lustre Co is already making major headlines with these oh-so pretty eye masks.  Loaded with collagen, 24k nano gold and a signature shimmer you won’t find anywhere else, these little weapons are your go-to for nipping tired, dark circled eyes in the bud, to give your skin the glow it truly deserves. 

La Mer The Body Refiner

Feel like your body needs a little TLC? This luxurious treatment is just what the doctor ordered this winter. Infused with over two carats (!!!) of pure diamond powder, this multi-action cream formula polishes away dead, dull skin cells to reveal softer, smoother skin. Want to get your supple-summer skin back? This is your golden ticket.

For those who refuse to believe we’ve actually got another TWO MONTHS left of this weather, this delectably salty scent will sort you out in a pinch. The unique aroma of salty beaches, dry herbs, trees and diftwood mingle with pine to create this coastal mix that’s totally, 100 percent appropriate for spritzing 365 days a year.

The highly anticipated 10th edition to funny IT-girl Zoë Foster Blake’s skin care line is finally here and boy oh boy, are we happy about it. Jammed with lush butters and powerful antioxidants to keep your hands and cuticles deliciously nourished, but devoid of greasiness, Super Handy deserves a place in your bag, on your desk and in your heart.

Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat White

Are you a fan of YSL’s Touche Éclat? Well, the brand just upgraded their formula to a never before-seen pigment: white. Just like using white eyeliner to open up and widen your eyes, this white highlighter takes that concept to the next level, allowing you to achieve this brightening effect on your cheeks, brow bone and lips. An intense shot of light thanks to the click of a pen to define and boost my facial features? Oh, yes please.
