Is there a quick way to improve my skin’s appearance?
If there’s one point to drive home regarding skincare, let it be this: skincare is about consistency and taking care. The time you put into fine-tuning a regimen that works for your skin usually reaps rewards of skin that looks bright, radiant and breaks out less. That being said, not everyone has time to commit to a routine every day and night. If you’re looking for a quick fix for your skin’s lacklustre state, try Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Boosting 5-Minute Facial ($100, thebay.com). This two-step system involves applying a self-foaming mask containing alpha hydroxy acids and protease enzymes to dissolve impurities in the skin that are contributing to a dull appearance. After a couple of minutes, rinse skin and then finish with the lipid-rich ceramide serum, which also contains skin-firming fruit extracts and soothing aloe vera. Radiant results for five minutes of effort!

Every week we take on your questions about makeup, skincare, hair and more and provide all the answers.

GREY MATTER: A roundup of silver hair–friendly product picks »

Warm weather brings many great things with it (think: sunshine! cocktails! pedicures!) but also increases the chances of a slick hairstyle quickly turning into a frizzy mess. Humidity relaxes the hair cuticle, making it more likely to expand into Einstein-worthy proportions. No need to worry though! Just like the earlier-than-anticipated warm temperatures, we’re ahead of the game with a rundown of five of the best anti-frizz hair products. From brand new creations to old favourites, we have you (and your hair) covered.
