Rodan and Fields Total RF Serum

The serum to end all serums. From our favourite dermatologist brand Rodan + Fields has developed a game changing serum that targets all signs of ageing and delivers stronger, healthier, more resilient looking skin. 

Using a proprietary RF TriEnergy Complex, this serum brings together natural and scientific ingredients to improve skin’s ability to retain moisture and increase visible plump. RF TriEnergy Complex includes Sandalwood, for reduction of fine lines, Indian Kino Tree Extract for even tone and Omega 6 Fatty Acids for supple and plump skin. Simply use morning and night after cleansing and toning and you will see visible results almost immediately – with improvements again after a few days and then also months later. The serum seems to build in its potency over time, delivering supple skin.

This serum is the perfect product, and the packaging is clearly from the future picture perfect you.

The magic of acne-preventing silver technology pillows now available for vegans. 

Silvi have developed a Bamboo lyocell pillowcase and packed it full of the same anti-acne silver technology that’s in the amazing silk pillowcase. Good for the environment: bamboo uses 98% less water during the production process than cotton or silk, plus no chemicals or animals are used either. It’s a world first for a plant-based silk (and it does feel like silk) pillowcase treated with natural silver, clinically proven to eliminate 99.7% of acne-causing bacteria. The same Silvi pillowcase you already fell in love with, now vegan and more sustainable. 

On another, yet related, note you may have seen videos on social showing the bacteria on a normal, non-silvi pillow, and then the bacteria (or lack thereof) on a Silvi pillow. The Silvi silk and Silvi bamboo silk pillowcases repel bacteria so your face is spared a nightly battle with the previous weeks’ worth of gunk its collected from your face. NICE. Do your face a favour.
