If you thought I was impressed at the ordering stage, let me tell you, when I received my products and saw my name typed across each one, I was suitably excited. Appearances aside, the products themselves didn’t disappoint either.

For one month so far, I’ve been following the All-Star Set routine. It includes GREEN BAE Cleansing Gel, £25, COME CLEAN Cleansing Oil, £28, TO BE CLEAR Exfoliant Mask, £52, TONIC OH! Treatment Lotion, £48, SEVENLY DELIGHT Brightening Concentrated Serum, £65, and DAY HACK Matte Moisturiser, £55.

What I love the most is that the texture of each product sits on or seeps into my skin like it’s been thirsty for it my whole life. You don’t need to use much of each product as they spread well. I had to really discipline myself to follow the steps every day, and although I’ve not been able to magic away my hyperpigmentation just yet, I’ve really noticed that the texture of my skin feels much more even and though winter is perhaps the most challenging time to trial new products (particularly serums with active ingredients and acids if your skin tends to dry or flake) I’ve not been disappointed.
