Each month I’ll share the hero beauty products I love, not just the ones I’ve tried & tested, but the ones I really reach for time and time again.

A great serum is an essential step in my daily skincare routine, but you can’t be lazy with them. I was taught by A-List facialist Su-Man, that serums only really work if you ‘lock them in’, a bit like a sandwich. Apply your serum after cleansing and before moisturising to lock it in, this allows the active ingredients to properly penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin in order to fully reap all the replenishing and anti-aging benefits.
