Stay glamorous at any ageAs we age, our skin becomes more fragile, thinner and less radiant, leaving many women looking washed out. The L’Oréal Paris Age Perfect Golden Age range has been specifically formulated for very mature skin to restore natural rosy skin tone and help fight sagging. Enriched with peony polyphenols, the formula stimulates the top layer of the skin to help restore skin density and to revive its rosy color for radiant, more beautiful skin every day. The line includes day and night creams (NIS 120 each), eye cream (NIS 120) and serum (NIS 120). The secret ingredient is neo-calcium, known for its strengthening qualities that in regular use will improve the density of the skin cells resulting in more supple and young-looking skin.Premium for lessIsrael’s premium Dead Sea cosmetics brand Minus 417 (-417) is offering their excellent products at reduced prices until the end of December. Choose from Rehabilitating Mud Mask (NIS 285 instead of NIS 380), Night Vegan Beauty Cream (NIS 160 instead of NIS 210), Serum with Hyaluronic Acid and Olive Oil (NIS 185 instead of NIS 120) and more. Grab it while you can!New skin for the New YearExtending its most iconic line, Clinique added recently Moisture Surge Intense, a 72-hour lipid replenishing hydration that is even better than its predecessors. Providing skin with intensive hydration in a rich gel texture, the new formula promises to continue hydrating the skin for 72 hours. The new cream helps strengthen the skin’s natural barrier and enrich the content of lipids in the skin. The result: a radiant and velvety skin. The new technology, ‘Auto-Replenishing Lipid-Filler’ with caffeine, helps trigger skin’s own rehydration system. Hyaluronic Acid fragments and Activated Aloe Water plump skin with moisture. A super-holding matrix of humectants and polymers help reduce water loss and seal in moisture. A great gift for the New Year. For normal to dry skin, use morning and evening on clean skin or as instant hydrating mask. NIS 145 for 50 ml. and NIS 90 for 30 ml. www.clinique.co.ilFollow the fuller trendFull, thick eyebrows are part of the new look in recent years and those with thinner, pale eyebrows trying to adjust may find it difficult. On the one hand, you can always opt for the radical change and have them “tattooed’ in a beauty salon, or use a permanent coloring kit, much like dying your hair, but less radical solutions are what I prefer and Maybelline New York has just introduced a new brow pencil that could be the solution for people like me. The new “Brow Extensions” pencil has thin fibers that help create a natural-looking thicker brow in an instant. Love it. Choose a shade closer to your natural hair color for perfectly shaped brows. NIS 40.Pamper your beardBeards are in again and most younger men now seem to have them. Gillette introduced a new line – King C. – products that help men shape and pamper their facial hair. King C.

NIS 149.90Squeeze it outBaracke Tahini launched their excellent Tahini in a squeezable bottle a few months ago and it instantly became a hit – and for good reasons. Anyone who makes tahini at home knows how difficult it is to get the out the tahini once it gets hard. In the squeezable bottle this problem is solved and you can use the tahini until the end with ease. The new addition to the collection is whole-grain tahini with added za’atar. The color is slightly darker than regular and the flavor is great. Just add water, some salt and lots of lemon juice.
