Powered by superfoods and perfected by science, top-selling US brand Youth To The People is an ecoconscious, philanthropic brand committed to harnessing nutrient-dense superfoods that have an impact on your skin’s health – and less of one on the environment. With carefully-crafted formulas made from antioxidant-rich leafy greens, as well as beneficial vitamins, every formula is also cruelty-free and 100 percent vegan. The Superfood Air-Whip Moisture Cream, £42, has a whipped gelcream texture with a combination of vitamins and hyaluronic acid to pep-up and hydrate dull, tired skin. youthtothepeople.com

Replacing the many products which have the same base and do the same thing, Lixirskin believe that there is no such thing as a product which is good for one bit of your skin and not another. A good formula, they think, should do it all, so they have delivered a minimalist set of multitasking heroes to make an instant difference without overloading your skin. Best product? Night Switch, £20–£28. There are four different types in the Night Switch range which target one metabolic pathway at a time – asking your skin to do one job at a time, and to do it well. Only use one at a time, then allow your skin to rest and reset before switching to another. Switching stimulates the skin to get better results. lixirskin.co.uk

Award-winning, powerful and sustainable, Circumference is a forward-thinking brand that takes responsibility for sparking change. From soil to skin, each potent, plant-derived active is harnessed without solvents or harsh chemicals and blended with safe, gentle synthetics to balance to your skin. Highly effective and bioactive, your skin can use every single nutrient contained in the formulas, meaning each ingredient is optimised for absorption, leading to happy, healthy skin. We love the Active Botanical Toner, £52, with mullein leaf extract to protect against environmental aggressors, cactus flower extract to soothe and moisturise and panthenol (vitamin B5), a powerful antioxidant and humectant that relieves inflammation and encourages collagen production. revolve.com
