Byonik Concur Face Mist
Known for its cutting-edge facials, Byonik now has skin products to use at home—or on the go. The Concur Face Mist is like a speed-treatment in a bottle. Not only does it refresh the face, cooling it down, but it also has an anti-ageing formula and protects the skin from pollution and environmental damage. Simply mist it all over the face and neckline for immediate effects.
Travelling can take its toll on the face, and these High Energy Pure Collage Eye-Pads, also from Byonik, target the delicate eye area and reduce the first signs of jet lag.

They work to reduce puffiness—the first signs of days on the road—minimise fine lines and reduce the signs of tiredness.

Skipping the buzz—and the calories – has gotten much more enjoyable. Even in the past six months, the non-alcoholic wine space has improved dramatically, with new offerings showing surprising complexity. My list this year includes a couple of debuts and some old favorites. I’ve noted how these beverages were made – some start with fermented grapes – actual wine—then use complex chemistry to remove the alcohol. These might hew closer to a traditional wine to many palates. Then there are beverages that use a mixture of teas, juices, spices or other elements to give the experience of wine – mouthfeel, complex nose and palate. These alternatives are generally not meant to emulate a particular varietal, but rather give the drinker a pleasing adult beverage to enjoy in situations where you’d normally drink wine. Here are this year’s top picks.
