Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex
from $139 at Estée Lauder
Loved by: Elizabeth Hurley
This Estée Lauder serum is a cult favourite for a reason. It is not only loved by celebrities, but by just about everyone who has tried it (the almost 16,000 five-star reviews attest to that).
It claims to have the power of seven serums in one, and targets multiple signs of aging. The serum works with the skin’s natural circadian rhythm — to protect during the day and repair at night — by incorporating their patented Tripeptide-32.
Sizes: 30ml, 50ml, 75ml
Key features:
- Dermatologist and ophthalmologist-tested

Cosmedix Purity Clean Exfoliating Cleanser
from $82 at Adore Beauty
Loved by: Victoria Beckham
The Cosmedix Purity Clean Exfoliating Cleanser is a celebrity favourite, and you’ll find that many expert facialists recommend it (including Posh Spice’s very own Aussie facialist Melanie Grant).
This lightweight, gel cleanser is lightly exfoliating thanks to the lactic acid. It also soothes and calms the skin with tea tree and aloe vera. While Cosmedix errs on the pricier side, it also doubles up as a purifying mask treatment — simply apply it undiluted to the skin for up to five minutes before rinsing off.
Size: 150ml
Key features:
- Suitable for all skin types
- Concentrated L-Lactic Acid for exfoliation
- Cruelty-free

Cetaphil Daily Facial Cleanser
from $16.99 at Priceline
Loved by: Julianne Moore

The Cetaphil cleanser is formulated for sensitive skin, although it will still work for all skin types. The blend of niacinamide, panthenol and glycerin helps to improve the skin’s moisture barrier and improve water retention.
Size: 236ml
Key features:
