CHANEL
Le Lift Crème Yeux
They say: A new eye cream addition to the popular Le Lift collection, this formula features botanical alfalfa concentrate to moisturize skin. The smooth, “melt-away texture” of the formula is gentle on eyes, enveloping skin in a soft “veil.” Suitable for sensitive skin.
We say: The texture of this cream is a bit like a balm, so not only does a little go a long way, but it also smooths easily onto skin with a super-soft feel. Our tester applied this product in the evening and felt it left her eye area feeling more soft and appearing more bright and moisturized.

Fenty Beauty
Snap Shadows
They say: A collection of mix-and-match eyeshadow palettes that can be snapped together to create a two-for-one palette. The individual palettes, which are available in eight curated colour ways, each feature six hues.
We say: Our tester enjoyed the idea of being able to combine two palettes into one small, portable case, yielding 12 shadow shades. The formulas apply smoothly and provide a nice does of colour (matte and shimmery) and sparkle. She enjoyed the glittery shades, which are fun to use as accent colours for day and all-over lid options for a bold evening look.

Reversa
Retin[A]list Cream
They say: A skincare cream from the Canadian brand Reversa that features 0.3 per cent pure retinol “encapsulated in biodegradable microspheres for a controlled release during the day.” The retinol is combined with an antioxidant and a Tasmanian berry to soothe skin and provide “anti-inflammatory properties.”
We say: Our tester tried this in the evening, as directed. The pump dispenser and lotion consistency make application easy and mess-free. The scent-free product absorbs well and isn’t heavy. The product left no irritation and our tester reported her skin “looked smooth” with use.
