Merit x Erdem The Retrospect Soap Trio

They say: A limited-edition trio of three mini-fragranced hand soaps that smell like Merit’s signature Retrospect scent. The release is part of a broader collaboration collection that includes a Signature Lip Trio and a winter makeup set.

We say: This partnership is a pretty fashion-beauty crossover. We love the moody shades available in the makeup, but we were immediately taken with this stylish mini soap set. The scented soaps present the perfect fall bathroom update. Who said hand washing can’t be chic?

Reversa Collagenique Body Cream

They say: A body cream from the Canadian brand Reversa that features dipeptide carnosine to combat aging due to oxidative stress, along with two per cent niacin amide to stimulate epidermal lipids, and a green algae extract to stimulate collagen for firmer, more toned skin.

We say: “Look at my arms!” our tester, a woman in her 70s declared, after using this product twice daily for one week. The non-greasy body cream left skin looking smooth, hydrated and noticeably more “youthful,” she reports. It’s a game changer for dry skin and crepe-y areas.

Byoma Bio Collagen Radiance Facial Mask

They say: A peel-off mask with an innovative texture. Featuring a tri-ceramide complex, along with cica and astaxanthin to soothe and calm skin. The peel-off mask produces the appearance of firmer, hydrated and more bouncy skin.

We say: Believe the hype. Social media fell hard for this peel-off mask, which goes from a pink goo texture to a nearly-clear film that you peel off to remove. Our tester found the product produced a glass skin-like glow after use. It packs a big boost of moisture and shine. We found it to be the perfect post-flight salve for dehydrated skin in need of some bounce.
