L’OCCITANE Reine Blanche Brightening Cream, $85.

We’re mad fans of this beautiful French range which always contains the highest quality ingredients housed in the most delightful packaging. Frankly, we would live in the store if we could. This particular moisturiser is especially lovely. It helps brighten the complexion and to even out skin tone – perfect for Australian skins many of which have seen too much sun (including ours). It also helps the skin recover its natural translucency, while leaving it comfortable, smooth and hydrated.
