Yes To Cucumbers

Cooling

Moisturizer

£9.99,

lookfantastic.com

Yes To claims that

this is the first-ever

natural moisturiser

to use this type

of metal rollerball

applicator. It might

not be everybody’s

cup of tea and the

product will still need

a bit of rubbing in

afterwards, but the

cold tip certainly

gives skin a wake-up

call. It also delivers

a quick massage

around the facial

contours.

Clarins Hydra-Essentiel
Cooling Gel
£37, clarins.com
Clarins has discovered that
our skin experiences up to
17 thermal shocks (sudden
changes in temperature)
a day, which can affect its
ability to maintain hydration
levels. Their answer is this airy, sorbet-like cream
containing a plant called the ‘leaf of life’, which triggers
the skin’s natural hydration systems.

Elemis Pro-

Collagen Insta-

Smooth Primer

£58, elemis.com

It’s tricky to

effectively apply

make-up on skin

that is hot, sweaty

or uneven in

texture. This new

primer provides

the perfect base

by creating a

cooling sensation

to smooth and

even out the skin

tone. The result is a

soft-focus, perfect

look that will make

your foundation

appear even

more flawless.

Darphin Hydraskin Cooling

Hydrating Stick

£25, darphin.co.uk

Ideal for instant cool-downs and

quick boosts to skin’s moisture levels

while out and about, this twist-up

stick is like skincare in ice lolly

form, with ingredients that

include water-rich plants and

hydration hero hyaluronic acid.

It will probably disrupt your

make-up, so it’s best saved for

bare-faced or beach days.

Sanctuary Spa Glacial

Splash Hydrating Mask

£12, Boots

This leave-on, gel-like

mask is moisturising

without any heaviness,

making it suitable for all

skin types, even those

prone to oiliness. Rich in

vitamins and minerals, it’s

like a drink of water for

dehydrated skin. We

recommend applying it

instead of your regular

night cream, once or

twice a week.

Skyn Iceland Hydro

Cool Brightening Face

Mask £30 for a pack of

three, feelunique.com

An easy way to apply a

cooling technology to the

whole face, this sheet

mask comes in two parts,

for the top and bottom

halves of your face,

ensuring a snug fit. It sticks

firmly to the skin and has a dry feel (nothing dripping

down into you collar here) and delivers a refreshing

burst of vitamin C to the skin, revealing a glowing,

perky complexion once it is peeled off.
