The innisfree product that sells 13 bottles every minute

Packed with amino acids and minerals, this lightweight yet nourishing serum works to replenish the optimal moisture level, wrapping skin in comfort for a smooth, glowing complexion.
After decades of cultivating its organic own green tea field on Jeju Island, today regarded among the best in the world, innisfree spent years researching every possible way green tea could benefit the skin. Methods were then refined to capture each part’s potent essence, from seed to root, to stem to leaf. The research team studied 2,401 green tea varieties, developing ‘Beauty Green Tea’. This beauty ingredient features a deeper and healthier colour. Compared to original green tea, it’s rich with amino acids and has outstanding hydrating abilities.
Weleda partners with Victoria Beckham AW20

For #VBAW20, Weleda’s Wellbeing Zone backstage encouraged models to take time out to enjoy a therapeutic hand massage courtesy of Weleda Wellbeing Advisors. With acupressure points all over the hands, the therapeutic effects of this holistic mini massage, which helps relieve tension and promote relaxation, makes it the ultimate express treatment for backstage, calming the mind and soothing the senses.
Weleda’s team used Skin Food Light for its nourishing formula which combines organic sunflower oil with skin-calming extracts of wild pansy, chamomile and calendula. This lotion is inspired by the formula for the original Weleda Skin Food, with the familiar clean, uplifting fragrance, but more suited to on-the-go moisturisation, soaking in quickly to leave skin instantly nourished and smooth without any residue.
