One of the (privileged) occupational hazards of working for a fashion magazine is navigating the continual influx of beauty new releases that find their way across our desks. Some are trending, some are timeless, and some are touting to be the next big thing. Naturally, not every product lives up to the hype (at least not in our experience) and only a select few make it into our editors’ daily regimens. From splurge products worth every cent, to the go-to facials and the tried-and-true essentials we can’t travel without, over the next few weeks, we reveal each team member’s GOAT beauty products they’d happily repurchase time and time again. Better beauty buying, everyone.

CREATIVE DIRECTOR
My all-time skincare favourite is…
Drunk Elephant Glycolic Night Serum — can always rely on it if I need my skin to look it’s best.
The last beauty-related thing I do before bed is…
Embodyme oil. Luxurious and nourishing.
My splurge product is…
Maison Francis Kurkdjian Baccarat Rouge 540 Eau de Parfum. I swooned after this scent for years before purchasing.
I never travel without…
By Terry Brightening CC Serum — perfect to wear on its own or to tint your foundation. It’s all I wore in Europe.
My current obsessions are…
Surrounding myself with beautiful smelling things. Right now that’s the Aesop Istros Aromatique Room Spray, Byredo Summer Rain candle and freshly cut freesias.
The most affordable/practical product I’ve ever owned is…
Weleda Skin Food — a godsend when my skin needs extra TLC.
In my make-up bag, I always have…
Brow gel and blush. Right now I’m using Bored Brows Styling Wax and Chantecaille Cheek Gelée.
My go-to lip liner is…
Kevyn Aucoin Unforgettable Lip Definer in Carnal.
My favourite beauty treatment to treat myself to is…
Oxygen Facial from Skintopia and lymphatic drainage.
