4. Cleansing solution

When massaged into dry skin, this oil cleanser dissolves makeup and dirt in an instant. Add some water to emulsify the product and then wash it away. We guarantee that if you've never tried an oil-based cleanser, you'll be amazed by how clean and fresh (not greasy!) your skin feels afterwards.

5. Smooth skin

This full-body product (think everything from hair to skin to nails) is a problem-solving wonder. It's 100 percent argan oil and packed with nutrient-rich antioxidants and essential fatty acids that help strengthen and hydrate skin. We love the glow it gives our arms and legs.

Sometimes we're so trend obsessed (shape, colour, nail art galore) we forget about the basics, like caring for our cuticles. Protect on the regular with this strengthening treatment. Just paint it on like a regular polish.
