A daily hit of the most stupendously brilliant things to land on the beauty desk. This is survival of the fittest

A pot of Oskia’s micro-exfoliating balm is a permanent fixture in my bathroom and this Renaissance Mask is set to join it for when my skin needs a boost. The luxurious whipped gel smells deliciously of Turkish Delight and is packed with pretty much every wonder ingredient you could wish for, from fruit AHAs to papaya enzymes and lactic acid.

It looks peachy in the heavy glass jar and the mask turns white as you massage it into your skin so you can see if you’ve missed any bits. Dead cells are banished, new ones are gently coaxed into regenerating and the result is soft skin and a glowy, bright complexion that makes you look like you’ve just had a facial.
