Get pampered this Christmas
ORBIS=U ENCORE
Japanese skincare brand Orbis has come up with a new line of anti-ageing products that promise soft, bouncy and moist skin, thanks to a formula that regenerates enzymes and does not damage the DNA.
The ORBIS=U Encore products are oil-free. The ingredients include restorative-type protein, Heat Shock Protein, to repair enzymes damaged by ultraviolet rays, and D.N.A. Hibis Extract for stimulating the body's DNA for healthy enzymes.
There are three products in the line: ORBIS=U Encore Lotion to be used after facial wash, ORBIS=U Encore Day Milk for day moisturising and ORBIS=U Encore Night Creamy Gel for night moisturising. They retail for $67, $65 and $73 respectively, and can be found at all ORBIS stores and counters.

The products include some of Kiehl's most loved items, such as Creme de Corps, Ultra Facial Cream and Calendula Herbal-Extract Toner.

MERRY GIFTMAS
Who says Christmas presents have to be expensive?
Watsons has rolled out items for every occasion, such as office gift-exchanges, secret Santa gifts and self-pampering presents.
