Best beauty products to fake a facial

We’ve just come off arguably the busiest week in Hong Kong… Art Basel, Art Central and, well all the events every. single. night. So we’re sure your skin needs a bit of a pick-me-up. But since everyone’s schedules are busy, a much-needed R&R session can’t necessarily mean a scheduled facial. Fret not, there are a ton of products out there that can help you fake one. Whether it’s a face mask before bed or a cream that fakes eight hours of sleep – here are some of the best beauty products that will help you get that glow.

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream

There’s a reason this cream is called the “magic cream.” It was Charlotte Tilbury’s secret weapon backstage, and the first product she wanted to launch when she founded her eponymous makeup line. It’ll be much easier to get your hands on this cream now, with Charlotte Tilbury officially launching at Lane Crawford at the end of this month. 

La Colline Matrix R3 Mask

This new product is based off of the revolutionary Matrix R3, an anti-wrinkle solution based off of three dimensional tissue reconstruction. It plumps the skin in one-go, so if you have 10 minutes to spare, slap this on and look rejuvenated. 

Clé de Peau Beauté La Crème

Clé de Peau’s signature Cream is luxury in a jar. It features Illuminating Complex EX that is moisturizing and retexturizing, perfect for when your face needs a little boost. 

Dior Hydra Life Cooling Eye Gel

Dior’s new Sorbet Program for skincare features 83% natural ingredients, and this particular eye cream acts like an ice cube for tired eyes. With cooling hydration, it’s sure to wake you up… or at least make you look like you’re awake. Available on May 1. 

Guerlain Abeille Royale Queen Night Cream

Invigorating and revilatlising, this cream promises to make your skin glow after a night’s treatment. It features highly-concentrated royal jelly that reparative and energising, and users have reported revitalised, smoother and more radiant skin. Launches on April 15.
