One of skincare’s buzziest ingredients at the moment, PDRN has now reached the high street. If you want to give it a go, £8 is an affordable entry point. Seamless under make-up, it works under the surface to boost cellular repair and breath life back into your skin, giving it a renewed bounce.

For A Glass-Like Glow

Collagen Jelly Cream, £18.90 | Medicube

Viral on social media for a reason, this K-beauty favourite is perfect for reviving dull skin. The unique jelly texture is unlike any other moisturiser we’ve tried – so cushiony and comforting. Powered by a potent cocktail of hydrolysed collagen, niacinamide and squalane, this sinks in like a dream and leaves your skin looking glassy and feeling touchably soft.

For A Soft, Supple Feel

Prime Forever Transformative Gel-Oil-Milk Cleanser, £19.95 | No7

New by No7, this milky cleanser has really impressed us. Formulated with the brand’s exclusive Glaciology technology, it uses peptides and antioxidants to create a smoother, plumper surface and shift daily grime, leaving your complexion supple and glowing. Massage into dry or damp skin and you’ll feel the formula transform from a silky gel-oil into a gentle milk.

For Easy Depuffing

Pack Of 5 No.9 Nad Collagen Under Eye Patches, £14 | Numbuzin

Another K-beauty hero, these NAD+-powered eye patches work hard. Whereas many simply create a satisfying, cooling sensation, these properly depuff and make you look more alive – a godsend before a special event. We also love that when you leave them on for long enough, the patches themselves shrink in size, so you can really tell your skin has soaked up all the moisture.

For Smoothing Fine Lines

Retinol 1% in Squalane Serum, £9 | The Ordinary

Designed to treat fine lines and wrinkles, this affordable serum is a great entry-point for retinol novices. The formula is gentle and you can really feel the slip of the squalane when you massage it in. As well as targeting texture, it also works to speed up cell turnover so skin appears noticeably brighter.

For All-Day Protection

Total Effects Anti-Ageing 7in1 Day Moisturiser With SPF15, £20 | Olay

This classic daily moisturiser really goes the distance. Supercharged with vitamins, the hardworking formula works on multiple levels, from restoring glow and evening out tone to reducing the appearance of pores. Plus, it contains SPF30, so you’re protected against damaging UV rays.
