Sleeping pack:These new gel treatments are lighter than the greasy creams you've been slathering on in the evening, and they transform into water. You leave them on overnight and when you wake up, your skin will be more radiant and plumped.
Sheet mask:Just packed with active ingredients, this fabric mask (made from cotton or cellulose) is THE quick and easy solution. Pop it on your face and in just 10 to 15 minutes, it will treat problematic areas of the skin, ticking the hydration, radiance, skin tone, firmness and wrinkle-busting boxes.
Pore refiner:Visible pores giving you a complex? A pore refiner is a two-pronged treatment: a mask with a paste texture to control sebum production, and an exfoliant to reduce pores' size.
Filler: The new alternative to anti-wrinkle injections, these generally contain hyaluronic acid high in molecular weight, to smooth the epidermis and fill wrinkles and hollows.
Brightening creams:Usually containing arbutin or vitamin C, these creams treat the complexion globally while targeting redness, too.
Layering: Hot-footing it from Asia, this technique involves building up layers of skincare and make-up products to get the effect you want. The really great news is that beauty brands are now bringing out specific treatments to respond to this trend, so you can layer without getting overloaded.
GG cream: BB, CC, DD… the beauty world loves a double-letter moniker right now, and the latest is GG. Nothing to do with horses, this stands for Genius Glow and is an enhancer that gives a bronzed effect without self-tanning. Cue an instantly healthy glow without the heaviness of foundation.
Liquid care: Also known as cosmetic water, this new wave of treatments includes mists, gels and creams that are ultra-light and concentrated with water. It's like a hydration shot with added active ingredients.
Micro needling: This skincare treatment is performed with a small roller which has micro-needles that gently perforate the skin. Its purpose? To reactivate collagen production in the skin, boost the healing process and promote better penetration of any following skincare treatments.
Lip patch: The key to soft, smoother and plumper lips, a lip patch is a glycerine- and collagen-based gel mask; a fairly terrifyingly huge pair of candy pink lips; that you apply to your mush. You'll look a bit like a surrealist clown when wearing it, but the effects are worth it.
