Your ultimate skincare wardrobe

Skincare routines are a lot like workouts – there’s always the desire for faster, better, longer-lasting results. The latest complexion-boosting serums fulfil that perpetual yearning; think high-tech formulas designed to ramp up the performance of your existing skincare regime. From fortifying the skin’s barrier, speeding the cell’s metabolic functions to re-energizing skin tone, Dr. Barbara Sturm’s serums are your beauty regime’s biggest asset. Hyaluronic acid has become the shining star of the skincare world and Sturm’s cult Hyaluronic Serum is particularly good because it works on the surface to smooth out crepey texture, while also penetrating deeper to hydrate and help skin function better. For those looking to soothe skin, the Calming Serum makes for the perfect antidote to redness, while the power-packed Super Anti-Aging Serum softens fine lines, hydrates with hyaluronic acid and repairs damage thanks to its cocktail of antioxidants. Lastly, for extra skin support, Sturm’s Lifting Serum has been coined by some in the industry as ‘Spanx for the skin’, making it a must for plump, firm skin.

They’ve become the unsung hero of the skincare world, but masks can take a lacklustre complexion and transform it into dewy, ‘juicy’ skin with minimal effort. Dr. Barbara Sturm’s nourishing Face Mask does this and more. Its hero ingredient, purslane, works to actively stimulate your skin’s defence mechanism, protects against irritants and soothes sensitive skin that’s been exposed to sun or air conditioning. Sturm’s Clarifying Mask is a great option for those prone to blemishes – it is gentle enough to soothe sensitivity but tough on tackling redness and inflammation.

While the festive season may seem some time off, once you set eyes on Dr. Barbara Sturm’s Advent Calendar, you’ll be wanting the holidays to come early. Featuring Sturm’s cult, results-driven products in one truly covetable collection, it contains 22 deluxe-sized products and two full-sized products. With universal favorites such as Glow Drops and Enzyme Cleanser, as well as some new discoveries, the calendar collection will see your skin through the holidays and coax out bright, beautiful and healthy skin long into the New Year.
