New foundation from Laura Mercier
Sweat resistant and 15 hours of wear? That’s exactly what we need and Laura Mercier is all set to deliver in September. The Flawless Fusion Ultra-Longwear Foundation, although full coverage, is said to have a weightless formula that feels like a second skin. The Laura Mercier Flawless Fusion Ultra-Longwear Foundation will be priced at Dh221.

Skinade comes to UAE
Can we drink our way to better skin? A UK brand says we can. Skinade is a drink that is said to increase collagen in the bloodstream, which in turn increases the body’s production of hyaluronic acid, which is an important part of skin hydration. It has no artificial colours and is naturally flavoured with peach and mangosteen. Skinade prices start from Dh800 for a 30-day supply and are available from Iwona Specialty Clinic, Sansaya Cosmetic Surgery and Dental Clinic, Euromed Medical Center, Rose Arbaji and Kalm Holistic Beauty.
Halal skincare
Safi Rania Gold, a halal-certified skincare brand from Malaysia, has launched in the UAE. My first question is, ‘are other skincare brands not halal’? There’s some food for thought.
The range is alcohol and gelatin-free, which might be of interest to people who are particular about avoiding them. The line-up of products includes a cream cleanser, facial scrub, a youthful gold essence and serum, among others. Safi Rania Gold products are available at all Carrefour stores in the UAE.
