Clean Beauty Gift Guide: The Hydration Honey

Skin needs water to keep hydrated and healthy, but the silly season elevates this desire to new heights. The request for this year’s Christmas beauty gifts? Dewy, fresh skin, all day, every day – plumped and primed, not parched. Not too much to ask, is it? Fortunately, we have a cool glass of water on standby, in the form of our hydration heroes.

Glow Vitamin C Daily Serum with Plant Hyaluronic Acid 30ml

Hyaluronic acid skincare is the gold standard in hydration, and it makes an appearance in this Vitamin C-enriched serum that helps cultivate a luminous, dewy appearance, with or without makeup. Hyaluronic acid holds up to 1000 times its weight in water to hydrate cells from the inside out. The light-wear gel serum gets even more moisture-boosting abilities from brightening antioxidant compound Vinanza® Grape & Kiwi, clinically shown to reduce moisture loss (New Zealand Extracts, 2012).

The perfect gift for: All skin types, especially dull and lacklustre skin.
