Road Test
If you're not familiar with the brand, Dr. Spiller Biomimetic is the pioneer of Hydratain Emulsion Technology, which is, in essence, a formula which combines the best aspects of both water-based and oil-based creams. This technology contains a special molecule which forms a "net" over the skin, allowing a cream to feel light and fresh, and penetrate the skin, while providing long lasting hydration. Also, this technology delivers active ingredients to help plump the skin up, making it look younger, and there are products ideally suited to a range of skin concerns, including stress, which can happen when you travel. The Dr. Spiller First Class Kit is new to the market, containing handy travel sizes of essential skin care products, some of which contain Aloe Vera, one of my favourite skin care ingredients. They include its best-selling Aloe Vera Sensitive Cleansing milk, which gently cleans the skin, Sensitive Toner With Aloe, to restore the skin’s optimum pH level, and Aloe Vera Eye Repair Ampoule, designed to boost hydration levels and reduce signs of fatigue around the eyes. Wrapping up the lineup is Sanvita Gel, which soothes and calms skin which has been exposed to stress, and Sanvita Cream, which protects moisture levels and boosts antioxidant levels. I’ve used all of these products individually before and can vouch for each one. And when you buy this kit you will also get the bonus of them coming in a super cool cosmetic kit you can reuse. Even if you’re not travelling at the pointy end of the plane on your next holiday, your skin will at least look first class.
