The aesthetics doctor hails her heroes from the German-made cult skin care collection
The beauty insider’s front-runner for tackling fine lines, wrinkles and inflammation, Dr. Barbara Sturm’s non-surgical age-defying solutions famously yield results that rival the invasive route. Here, she reveals the must-haves she can’t go a day without, proving why you should consider them staples too...
1.
Cleanser
“Gentle cleansing daily is essential to remove dirt, pollution, pathogens, oil and other irritation-triggering impurities from the skin. It also helps to prepare the skin to receive the active ingredients in your serums and moisturisers.”
The Low Down
- Foam formula gently removes makeup and other impurities
- Maintains skin’s delicate pH balance with soothing aloe vera, and fights ageing with purslane extract
- Ideal for all skin types, including sensitive
2.
Hyaluronic Serum
“My potent blend of molecular weighted hyaluronic acid serves as the ‘white t-shirt’ of my skin care line and is essential to my regimen. It provides fundamental hydration at both surface and deeper skin layers.”
The Low Down
- Low and high weighted hyaluronic acid molecules at optimum concentrations deliver multi-layered hydration
- Improves skin health and reduces the formation of dehydration-related wrinkles with daily use
- Acts as an additional moisture boost when layered under face cream
3.
The Good C Vitamin C Serum
“I developed The Good C in response to clients who wanted the radiance boosting effects of vitamin C in an optimum concentration, without damaging skin barrier function or causing sensitivity. My formulation combines the right chemistry of vitamin C with surrounding ingredient science to boost the skin, and provides antioxidant properties that protect from free radicals and daily environmental stress while combatting pigmentation. Regular usage results in a complexion that’s healthy-looking, fresh and radiant.”
The Low Down
- Three forms of vitamin C simultaneously address pigmentation, brighten skin tone and provide antioxidant protection
- Supports the formation of collagen for a youthful and firm appearance
- Zinc boosts vitamin absorption for superpowered results
4.
Face Cream
“Face Cream was the first product I developed. This cream seals and hydrates your skin while nourishing, protecting and reducing the visible signs of irritation with my potent anti-aging ingredients purslane and skullcap.”
The Low Down
- Cult moisturiser with multitasking powers
- Anti-ageing skullcap and purslane calm and reduce signs of irritation for lasting comfort
- Keeps skin firm and comfortable throughout the day, and optimally hydrated at night
5.
Sun Drops SPF 50
“My Sun Drops are a unique hybrid of sunscreen and skin care, marrying broad spectrum sunscreen ingredients with anti-aging and anti-oxidative ingredients that deal with the after effects of sun exposure.”
The Low Down
- Essential sun protection in lightweight serum form
- Multitasking formula prevents sun damage whilst warding off its ageing effects
- Anti-ageing benefits come courtesy of purslane, and antioxidant powerhouses cassia extract, vitamin E and beta-glucan go the extra mile for protection
