ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm in 'Black Cherry' (deluxe size; 20g): Use daily as a cleanser. Warm an almond-sized amount into the skin, massaging with light circular movements, loosening the balm into an oil. Moisten fingertips and continue to massage so that the oil emulsifies into a milk. Rinse with water or remove with a cleansing cloth.

Sunday Riley C.E.O. 15% Vitamin C Brightening Serum (deluxe size; 8ml): After cleansing, apply to dry skin and gently massage into face and neck.

Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant (travel size; 30ml): Lightly soak a cotton pad and gently apply over the entire face and neck, including the eye area (avoid lash line and eyelids). Do not rinse. At first, apply every other day and note skin's response. Then use up to twice daily. For daytime, follow with a broad spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater.

BIOEFFECT EGF Serum (full size; 15ml): For PM use. Apply 2-4 drops to cleansed skin and massage until fully absorbed. Follow with moisturiser.

Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer (travel size; 10ml): Pump 1-2 shot(s) of primer on the back of your hand. Blend a thin layer onto clean skin before make up application. Allow formula one minute to fully absorb to activate grip for all-day hold. Layer foundation and other make up on top for smoother application that lasts all day, or wear alone for fresh-faced, glassy skin.

Danessa Myricks Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder Flushed in 'Rose 'N' Brunch' (deluxe size; 3g): Swirl your fingers or a brush into the colour, then press onto your cheeks and lips. Finally, tap and blend to create a flush effect. Repeat as many times as you like to build colour.
