In fact, it doesn’t even feel like you’re applying sun protection. It feels like you’re applying moisturizer ...

From the Beauty Closet

Guys. I full on got dumped Sunday night. After over a year of dating. On the phone. The night before a major midterm. Because I said I was bummed that he was 45 minutes late. Really. Can you believe that? 

Featuring Snowberry's New Radiance Face Serum. A natural Copper Peptide Serum that offers an alternative to many far more expensive serums - for all skin types and ages.

As New Zealand native Soraya Hendesi tells it, the rationale behind launching her own skincare brand was fairly simple. “I [was] horrified that some so-called ‘skincare’ can, over time, actually do more damage than good.” A trained cosmetologist, Hendesi was “determined to create something better.”

New Sensation

At the moment everyone is abuzz about Snowberry - a premium anti-aging skincare range that is made right here in New Zealand...A self-confessed perfectionist, founder Soraya Hendesi wasn't willing to hand over manufacturing to a third party and has instead opened a full-scale production plant in South Auckland. And she has a 22 hectare plantation of native vegetation in Northland, which is used to research other bio-active ingredients for her products.

Best New Skincare Range

While good manners might see them smile politely through a fair few bogus launches, beauty editors on the whole are a pretty jaded bunch. That's why it has been so impressive watching them rave about Snowberry the new home grown skincare range that blends the best of both natural resources and scientific innovation. No expense has been spared in creating this ultra-safe yet ultra luxurious range.

For a basic cleanser I wash with Snowberry Instant Deep Cleanser, and when I’m excessively dry, I get relief with the soothing facial massage oil.

This eye cream has a great quality-to-price ratio. An anti-aging eye cream that is effective on under-eye bags and dark circles. Key actives are Guanidine HCL and tripeptide-1, shown in clinical trials to activate and stimulate collagen and elastin. In summary, it does what it promises.

Anti-toxic

Modern skincare and natural ingredients are not mutually exclusive. The foundation of this anti-aging system is the serum. Stressed skin is to be repaired in a soft way, the origin of lines is to be reduced and natural collagen production will be activated: Intensive Renewal Face Serum Snowberry, 30 ml about 293 Euros.

“The beloved beauty brand from New Zealand, Snowberry has sailed stateside, landed at Henri Bendel and become an instant favourite. We can’t help but be smitten by these organic ingredients—created by cosmetician Soraya Hendesi, the line of anti-aging wonders is free from usual glut of chemical offenders like parabens, glycols and artificial colors. Instead, you’ll see healthful ingredients like babassu butter to moisturize and lingonberry to improve clarity in just a few short days.”

Snowberries remind Soraya Hendesi of pureness and youth. So it was quite obvious for the cosmetician to name her own product-line "Snowberry". The New Zealander renounces for her products harmful chemicals, artificial colours and animal testing. 15ml of the "Smoothing Eye Serum" cost about 94 Euros. Available amongst others in the Departmentstore Quartier 206 in Berlin and at Ludwig Beck in Munich.
