The Luxe Beauty Edit: August 2020

For our beauty edit this month, we have been looking out for the perfect luxury products to help you achieve the perfect complexion! Whether you are looking for a new skincare product or finding ways to smooth your skin’s appearance in this hot summer season, we have found a selection of products to add to your collection! 

There is no dispute that the key to achieving the perfect complexion is having a consistent skincare routine. Starting with the basic ‘Cleanse, Tone, Moisturise’, I don’t think you would meet a makeup artist, beauty influencer or expert who does not maintain a strict skincare regime.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a luxe beauty edit without some of our top fragrance pieces for the month! See our top choices for Skin, Makeup to smooth your complexion, nourishing hair care and stunning scents below…
