Our team of reviewers evaluates numerous beauty products each month. This week, we have selected three standout launches that impressed our testers. Read on for our unbiased reviews.
Aestura Atobarrier 365 Cream
Product Claims: This South Korean skin barrier-boosting face cream promises up to 120 hours of hydration. It contains ceramides, a triple lipid complex, and capsule technology for time-release moisture.
Our Review: Our tester with ultra-dry skin found this cream to be deeply soothing. It formed an instant cocoon of hydration, calming dry, itchy areas. While it may be too rich for oily skin types, it is excellent for those with dryness or sensitivity. Price: $44 at Sephora.
Vasanti Sun's Up Tinted Mineral Sunscreen
Product Claims: A three-in-one mineral sunscreen with a light tint, offering broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. It includes black currant and peony extract to address dark spots and brighten skin.
Our Review: Our tester appreciated the lotion-like consistency and lack of white cast. The subtle tint evened skin tone and added radiance. This non-greasy formula is perfect for a no-makeup look with SPF protection. Price: $49 at vasanticosmetics.ca.
Shiseido Vital Perfection Uplifting and Firming Advanced Eye Cream
Product Claims: This eye cream claims to reduce wrinkles and sagging in one week. It features MicroVitalizer Technology with caffeine and chai hu extract, plus RetinolACE and hyaluronic acid.
Our Review: A tester in her late 60s used this cream daily for a month. A small amount hydrated the eye area effectively, and the ball massager enhanced application. She noticed smoother, firmer, more hydrated skin over time. Price: $122 at shiseido.ca.
