Love's all very well, but Bliss says what you really need right now is gloves. Dry, chapped hands can sink into Bliss' polymer gel-lined blue gloves ($440), which contain softening agents such as jojoba oil and vitamin E. Apply a rich hand cream, slip on the gloves and leave on for 20 minutes (or, for dry hands, overnight). To keep the gloves clean, turn them inside out, wipe them down with a wet sponge and lay them flat to dry. They can be used up to 50 times. Bliss also has softening socks ($440) that create a film around the feet 'creating an instant moisture barrier' to help alleviate dry skin. Both are available from Lane Crawford Pacific Place and Times Square.
Madina has introduced its Lip Lock Duo ($180) for spring summer. Its two formulas are designed to 'work in synergy' with one, double-ended applicator. Apply the creamy colour, wait about two minutes, then apply the top coat to seal for full, glossy lips. Available from Joyce Beauty.
