Winter beauty must-haves

Colour Burst

Maybelline The Elixir lip colour gives high-impact colour and a “glass shine” via a cushiony wand (shown, clockwise from top left, in Fuchsia Flourish, Raspberry Rhapsody, Signature Scarlet and Breath-taking Apricot; each $11, 5 mL). Almay Shadow Softies by Intense i-color is a hypoallergenic cream-to-powder eyeshadow formula (shown, clockwise from top, in Petal, Honeydew, Seafoam and Lilac; each $6, 2 g). Make Up For Ever HD Blush (centre; shown in #410, a universally flattering coral) delivers a natural flush via its melt-into-skin cream-powder texture ($31, 2.8 g).

Shine Boost

Infusium 23 Miracle Therapy Leave-In Treatment Serum for hair boasts vitamin-rich moringa seed oil in a light formula to help with tangling and breakage. ($9, 118 mL)

Perfume Free

Sure, Marcelle Ultra Gentle Cleansing Gel is ideal for removing face and eye make-up, but the mild soap – and sulfate-free cleanser is family friendly, too. It bears the seal of recognition of the Canadian Dermatology Association Skin Health Program. ($13, 350 mL)

Wrinkle Repair

Addressing wrinkles due to the loss of collagen and elastin, NeoStrata Youth Factor GF Total Regenerating Serum is an anti-aging peptide formula. Epidermal Growth Factor technology features crocus flower bulb extract. ($78, 30 mL)

Flex Style

MoroccanOil Molding Cream gives a matte finish to short hair or long layers, and nourishes with argan and olive oils. Emulsify a little in your palms and tousle away. ($28, 100 mL)

Non-Stick Spray

For that morning rush, St. Ives Fresh Hydration Lotion body moisturizer delivers a refreshing continuous spray, and feels light on the skin. It comes in three formulas: Soothing Oatmeal and Shea Butter; Naturally Indulgent Coconut Milk & Orchid Extract; and Energizing Citrus & Vitamin C. ($8, 184 g)
