Inject life into tired skin with just a few drops of the Clarins Booster Energy, $65 (15 ml), in your favourite moisturiser. Containing ginseng extracts, this booster minimises dullness associated with fatigue, especially great when you’re sleep-deprived.

Specifically formulated for combination skin, the Aesop In Two Minds Facial Toner, $75 (200 ml), contains a blend of witch hazel, niacinamide and chamomile bud to soothe and balance skin. Oilier areas are refreshed while drier areas are hydrated without feeling heavy on skin.

Unlike the regular turmeric featured in some of the products in this list, the RE:ERTH Multi-targeted Elixir, $108 (30 ml), uses a rare white turmeric from the Kyushu region of Japan.

Often used as an Ayurvedic treatment, turmeric is valued for its ability to refine skin and improve the appearance of pigmentation and sun damage. The KORA Organics Turmeric Brightening & Exfoliating Mask, $68 (100 ml), brightens and promotes skin cell renewal for an overall radiant glow.

Developed by global makeup artist Isabelle Pain, the HERA Rosy-Satin Cream, $120 (50 ml), improves skin cell turnover to reveal healthier skin. Wrapping skin in a silky finish, makeup is able to glide on easily.

The iconic Clarins Double Serum, $170 (50 ml), underwent a reformulation last year with the addition of turmeric to its previous lineup of 20 natural plant extracts. Dual canisters within the bottle keep active ingredients efficacious until it’s dispensed.
