SPRING is springing all around us at long last with longer days and shorter nights, and nature responding in new coats of fresh foliage and plenty of early morning birdsong.

It’s time to shake off and cleanse away the dull days of winter with a fresh inspiration in skincare, and Brown Thomas has what is needed in powerful, refreshing ingredients to set the season right. Trending on top of a stable of powerful skincare rescue remedies are retinol and peptides, each leading in its own way to luminous and brighter skin.

Retinol is a powerful anti-ageing ingredient that does far more than smooth fine lines: this top-trending treatment is also known to improve acne, dark spots, dullness and enlarged pores, and Brown Thomas has it in Charlotte Tilbury’s Sustainable Edit Magic Eye rescue, priced at €59. Professional Beauty Magazine’s Lollie Hancock said last year that the trend for retinol-based products was trending, and all indications are that it hasn’t slowed down: “The research by retail discount site Hey Discount found the ingredient to be the most popular trend based on TikTok views, Google searches and Instagram hashtags.”

It’s the season of big events, and the more outdoors, the merrier. Brown Thomas in stores across Ireland and online at https://www.brownthomas.com/ stocks Lancôme’s HPN 300-peptide cream, a little pot of essential collagen-producing moisturiser for €109. Peptides are popping up in cleansers and serums as well as moisturisers and claim to offer a more youthful complexion for plumped and luminous skin.

“Peptides are powerful signalling molecules found throughout the body including the skin, where they are involved in many different physiological processes to maintain health,” No7 Skincare Scientific Advisor Dr Mike Bell told the Boots Beauty Trend Report. “They are powerful communicators which essentially ‘talk’ to skin cells, telling them to initiate repair and increase their production of important structural proteins.”
