   Eve Lom Moisturiser

   Moisturizing on the go is essential no matter where you travel to, especially if you want to stay make-up free for the journey (it’s always good to travel without a full face!).

   The UVA and UVB filters in this luxurious Eve Lom Moisturizer boost your skin’s radiance and hydration levels, while effortlessly protecting against free radicals and environmental damage. Lactic Acid brightens and refines texture, to help give you a more radiant, more energized, younger-looking complexion. And of course, it’s SPF 15 for light protection.
