Another cult favourite, this serum does it all. From hydrating and strengthening your skin barrier, to tackling fine lines, and uneven skin tone, it does it all! What makes this product so effective is the exclusive ingredient called Chronolux™ Power Signal Technology, which reduces multiple signs of ageing, while boosting your skin's natural ability for self-repair. Need we say anything more?

CosRX Advanced Snail Mucin Power Essence, ₹1,450

K-beauty and its innovations are known to all glass skin enthusiasts. Especially this holy grail snail mucin. Created from nutritious, low-stimulation filtered snail mucin, it is loaded with a slew of antioxidants that repair the skin barrier, and hydrate and illuminate the skin, which is evident after a single use. We see why this is a K-beauty fave!

Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Crush Cheirosa 62 Vanilla & Salted Caramel Perfume Mist, ₹4,000

This vanilla and salted caramel hair and body mist took TikTok by storm, much like its scent-sister—the Bum Bum Cream. The scent lasts all day, is safe for the hair, and feels like dessert in a bottle. With a surge in gourmand fragrances, who wouldn't want to smell like this summer treat?
