Beauty for the Beast



Cleansing

Jose Eisenberg Facial Cleansing Gel $225 per 150ml (SaSa)
★★★★✩
• A refreshing facial cleansing gel for guys who don’t want too much fuss

Toner

Suisse Programme Soothing & Purifying Toner $248 per 150ml (SaSa)
★★★★✩
• Smells a little bit too fruity
• Can actually pass for a facial mist as it is perfect for a hot day when you’re craving a quick cool-down

   


Anti-ageing

Spaziouomo Anti-age Relaxing Cream $360 per 50ml (SaSa)
★★★★✩
• Hydration-wise, this is not really top-notch stuff

• Non-sticky

   

Eye Cream

Spaziouomo Anti-stress Eye Contour Cream $336 per 15ml (SaSa)
★★★★★
