The brilliant prime radiance serum 30 sachets for Dhs1,748 Noble Panacea Noble Panacea is the absolute holy grail in skincare routine. The brand is completely clean and sustainable with gorgeous packaging and single use sachets which can be recycled. My favourite thing about it though is the efficacy. The serum regenerates skin and gives it a vitality and radiance that I haven’t found in any other serum. Push play power matte lip pigment Dhs145 Nars I love liquid matte lipsticks but struggle to find ones that don’t dry out my lips. This Nars red lipstick is the perfect shade for almost every skin tone and comes with a very precise applicator that ensures you get that perfect pout. Absolute renewable balm Dhs1,673 Noble Panacea This night cream is great for dry and sensitive skin. It works overnight to unleash potent ingredients and stimulate cellular renewal, so you wake up every morning with plump, hydrated and bright skin. Vanish Concealer Dhs190 Hourglass I tend not to wear much makeup on a daily basis but when I do, this concealer does the job, especially if I’ve not had much sleep. It is quite pigmented but looks quite natural. The Noir 100ml for Dhs1,155 Le Labo Anyone who knows me knows that this scent is one I refuse to part with. Le Labo makes bold scents which have a more contemporary flair to them, so it’s quite user friendly for both day and night.

OI hair butter Dhs140 Davines All of Davines’ products are great but this one stands out by nourishing my hair, making it less frizzy and adding a softness. I have fine hair, but this doesn’t weigh it down, plus, it smells great.

Hand cream vanilla orange peel Dhs95 Grown Alchemist With all the sanitiser I’ve been using, this hand cream has been a lifesaver. It’s lightweight and moisturises without being greasy. I tend to touch my hair quite a lot and finding a good hand cream that doesn’t transfer can be quite tricky. Skin filter powder Dhs225 The Nue Co. I’m a complete skincare junkie and have come to realise that good skin starts from within. This brand is organic and sustainable. I started using it a while ago and will soon be launching it at The Edit because it’s so effective.

CRYOpress Dhs750 001 Skincare Inspired by cryotherapy, this is an ice massage roller that is great for lymphatic drainage and boosts your skin with oxygen and toxin drainage. I suffer from a lot of allergies and this helps. It comes with a flash serum that brightens my skin too. Pro supreme restructure firming boosting cream Dhs405 FaceGym This tool changed my skincare routine. It delivers electrical pulses to my face to stimulate the muscles and the results I’ve seen have been incredible. It feels a bit uncomfortable initially but is easy to use once you get the hang of it.
