This year is the year to go beyond chocolates and roses – 2025 is all about gifting the coveted glow. With cutting-edge beauty innovations and advanced skincare breakthroughs from top brands like HydroPeptide, Teoxane, and GESKE, radiant and healthy skin becomes the ultimate expression of love – and whether you’re pampering yourself or someone special, these 5 highlights will be the gifts that keep on glowing throughout the year!
Teoxane 3D Lip, RRP £35
Did you know that kissing can sometimes lead to a drying effect on the lips? Lips have little to no protective layer, so whether it’s the wind, talking, eating, or kissing, they get stripped of moisture and need a hand. To make things worse, this area of the face has less collagen and elastin than the rest of the face, making wrinkles most quickly noticeable.
Teoxane’s hydrating and reparative 3D Lip Balm is designed to smooth, nourish, and plump. Infused with Hyaluronic Acid, Marine Collagen, Shea Butter, and Ceramide, its non-sticky, melt-in formula restores comfort to dry, chapped lips while a cooling applicator soothes sensitivity. Clinically tested, it delivers a 21% hydration boost, a 14% plumping effect, and a 38% reduction in lip roughness just 30 minutes after application. This is a handbag must-have this February and beyond.
