3 Hyaluronic Acid Skincare Products to Combat Winter Skin
The winter season can cause fine lines to become more noticeable due to the skins exposure to severe temperatures, central heating and dehydration. These common skin concerns are a major reason why hyaluronic acid is an essential skincare ingredient.
Hyaluronic acids powerful and scientifically proven, anti-ageing properties not only work to comfort the skin, but also provide an even base for makeup application!
Borghese Esfoliante Delicato Gentle Cleanser and Exfoliant ($27 at Borghese.com) The Ultra-mild cleanser accelerates surface cell turnover with a natural Jojoba exfoliant that does away with dull skin to reveal a soft, smooth and re- texturized appearance. Hyaluronic acid provides an antioxidant defense against environmental assaults resulting in a luminous and altogether fresh appearance.
Arbonne RE9 Advanced® Intensive Renewal Serum ($62 at Arbonne.com) This vegan-certified, collagen-supporting day time formula is infused with concentrated antioxidants, botanicals and peptides that work synergistically to protect the skin’s surface from future signs of aging. Hyaluronic acid provides hydration that improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Borghese Acqua Ristorativo Hydrating Concentrate ($92 at Borghese.com): This night time formula is infused with a botanically-derived Cell Leaf Culture and two marine-derivatives which work in tandem with the Hyaluronic Acid to attract and bind moisture leaving skin softened and supple.

Nairobi, the New Milan- Introducing The Ministry of Tomorrow
Nairobi, The New Milan
Kibera slum tailors compete with top couture brands as Ministry of Tomorrow debuts premier luxury vegan unisex bag collection
The Ministry of Tomorrow (MOT) announced today the debut of its premier luxury, vegan, unisex, bag collection.
MOT’s flagship production facility located in Nairobi, Kenya just outside of Kibera, Kenya’s largest slum, is Africa’s newest fashion house.
The company recruited highly skilled tailors who reside in Kibera and offered them fare wage jobs to work with high quality sustainable materials including; Italian and Japanese animal free leather, 100% certified organic and fair trade cotton from India and low impact dyes accepted for use with organic textiles.
After several years of perfecting design, production and eco-material sourcing, MOTs Nairobi factory produces luxury bags that are on par with Milan’s notables but with a new twist.
“We design and produce eco-luxury bags for a new audience of conscious consumers. Social, environmental and animal rights activism is at the core of our brand. Our bags are produced with respect for the earth and care for animals and the people who are involved at each step of the production” said Julian Prolman, founder and president of the Ministry of Tomorrow.
MOT launched its classic collection with four original designs that include; a portfolio, briefcase, cross-body and a backpack that are available in two elegant vegan black leather options. The bags are masterfully crafted with a minimalist exterior and a wild Afro-funk Maasai warrior mask pattern interior.
The new collection retails from $395 to $895 and can be purchased online directly from the company at www.ministryoftomorrow.com
“We have a new story for the fashion world. This is more than fashion, it’s an awakening, a new way of doing business that empowers people and protects animals and the planet” said Prolman.
