skin perfectIs your complexion suffering from the effects of overindulgence over the festive season? If not, then count yourself lucky—most of us suffer the consequences of rich food and drink with at least a few trophy pimples. Besides increasing your daily intake of water to detox the system (great for knocking the socks off spots), try using Cellex-C’s ingenious Skin Perfecting Pen, £19. Easy to use, thanks to a rollerball applicator, this skin saver contains a nourishing cocktail of skin-healing ingredients, including Olive Leaf, Rosemary, Lavender, Thyme, Eucalyptus and Peppermint extracts with Zinc and Hyaluronic Acid. We found it tingled a little when first applied (which means it's working!), but with continued use it really helped to zap even the most persistent of pimples into oblivion!
