The latest launch of Aesop Lucent Facial Concentrate is a serum that can be used as a layering base, or a standalone hydrating formulation, guaranteed to help replenish and balance the skin. The lightweight serum is suitable for both combination and oily skin, which is perfect for Hong Kong’s hot and humid climate. There’s nothing worse that feeling greasy or sticky when out and about in the city where you’re always walking that fine line between sub-zero air-conditioning and the fetid heat of the subtropical city. A huge thumbs up for this little jar and dropper; there’s something self-soothing and dare-we-say medical about the dropper. It doesn’t seem like an exercise in vanity, more like a scientific approach to bolstering skin care.
Also, I can’t stress enough how good Aesop’s Exalted Eye-Serum is. A lightweight liquid catering to the delicate skin around the eye-area, gently massaging the dewy drops around has helped wake me up, and the list of vitamin-rich ingredients leaves tired skin nourished and balanced. In the alter of Aesop, am a firm believer.
You can buy the serum online here or #IRL in stores studded around Hong Kong.
