Precious Possesions

SHINE LIKE A DIAMOND 

“Diamond infused products help in smooth­ening, suppleness of the skin texture, and correcting the ion balance,” says Dr Sachin Dhawan, senior consultant, dermatology, Fortis Memorial Research Institute. Diamond powder is especially beneficial in exfoliation, getting rid of dead skin and leaving it feeling soft. We love the Diamond Infused 24k Gold Serum by Forever Flawless that restores skin elasticity and targets signs of premature aging, while the finest diamond particles scrub dead cells away brightening the complexion.

HEART OF GOLD

Gold is known for it’s calming, firming, tightening properties, and smoothening fine lines. The two most popular 24k gold infused skin serums are Dior’s L’Or de Le Vie L’Extrait and Guerlain’s L’or. Both when applied on bare skin work as skin enhancers and makeup primers by finishing out fine lines and tightening facial features.

GEMS OF LOVE

Sapphire benefits by toning the complexion and softening deep wrinkles, while properties of amethyst provide purification and detoxification. The combination of amethyst, sapphire and aquamarine prevent aging. Invest in Själ’s Saphir Concentrate, that’s deemed as a miracle potion. “Precious aquamarine encourages cell renewal, eliminating harmful effects of age. It helps in repairing, detoxing, rejuvenating, and refining the skin,” says Dr Varun Katyal, consultant dermatologist and cosmetologist, The Skin Centre, Delhi.

SET IN PLATINUM

“Platinum improves the skin’s receptiveness to vital nutrients, and keeps it hydrated. It maintains the skins electrical balance and adjusts to the transforming humidity levels. Platinum also combats aging and rejuvenates skin,” adds Dr Katyal. Try the La Praire and Bottega di Lunga Vita for these benefits.

PEARL WISDOM

Pearl powder in skin-products fights pigmentation and heals sun damage. This process leads to skin luminosity, which is something all brides-to-be look out for. We recommend La Mer’s Cleansing Foam that contains white pearl.
