A TOUCH OF MAGIC

AHEAD? TEAM FEMALE GIVES THE THUMBS UP TO THESE FAB FINDS.

“Removing gel nail polish can

be annoying sometimes – not

to mention how crusty and

thin my nails can turn out after

it’s done. I’m glad I stumbled

upon this gem, which is packed

with nourishing ingredients like

cupuacu butter, white tea extract

and other restorative peptides to

keep my nails and cuticles healthy

and flake-free, so they won’t get

in the way whenever I decide

to change my nail colour.”

TEXT AND COORDINATION

KHUSHBOO BINWANI AND NABILA AZLAN

“I blame long hours in air-conditioned areas for the dry

patches on my skin. To spare myself from the discomfort, I

turn to this skin-quencher. With sweet almond oil to combat

dryness, this has proven to be great not just for my hands but

knees, elbows and feet too. It’s flowery goodness in a tube!”

BANDI ROSE VALLEY FLOWER VITA, RM47

“This nail polish shade is

the bomb and perfect for a

glam night out! It’s so eye-

catching that when I twist

and turn my fingers, the

shade – a turquoise to bronze

shimmering duo-chrome –

shows off a gorgeous sparkle.

But that’s not all cos this

handy pick offers high-shine

coverage in each mini bottle

while being vegan, and

gluten- and paraben-free!”

CIATÉ LONDON MINI PAINT POT

NAIL POLISH IN CYCLONE, RM37

“This nifty hand serum has made my skin
firmer while reducing fine lines, thanks to
its restoring combo of ribose and narcissus
extract. My favourite way to use it is to mix
it with my hand cream and massage it well
into my skin, nails and cuticles – it does
the trick in giving me smooth and even-
toned hands. Bonus: it comes with a
super-calming frankincense scent!”
NEAL’S YARD REMEDIES FRANKINCENSE
INTENSE HAND TREATMENT SERUM, RM259

“The best pick-me-up would
obviously have the best ingredients

• I knew this would be gold before
  I even used it, and I was right!
  Scanning through its ingredients,
  I love the combo of Persian acacia,
  buckwheat seed and lindera which
  has helped to tighten and moisturise
  my skin with restorative peptides.
  My hands are deeply in love!”
