Dr Dennis Gross launches alternative to dermal fillers

You have heard of “Botox in a bottle”. Now, Dr Dennis Gross – a dermatologist-founded American skincare brand that was catapulted into the global limelight after the success of its Alpha Beta Peels – has come up with “fillers in a bottle”.

Its new DermInfusions Fill + Repair Serum is a needle-free alternative to injectable fillers that promises to banish fine lines and give crepey skin a firm boost.

This golden elixir is packed with not just one but four types of hyaluronic acid (to target different layers of the skin), niacinamide, ectoin and a complex of four peptides.

Using the unique MicroCelle Delivery system, which is said to reduce the size of the ingredients, the potent formula goes deeper into the skin without leaving any sticky residue.

Priced at $123, the DermInfusions Fill + Repair Serum is available exclusively at Sephora stores and via

Drunk Elephant’s eye serum gets a retinol boost

When it comes to anti-ageing creams, retinol is a good idea, even for the eyes. But, since the under-eye area is delicate, using the right retinol-infused eye product is imperative.

American beauty company Drunk Elephant has just launched the A-Shaba Eye Complex, a gentle serum with a 0.1 per cent dose of pure vegan retinol to improve skin’s elasticity and zap the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Formulated at a pH value of 5.5, which is the level of normal, healthy skin, this serum also contains 3 per cent caffeine to alleviate puffiness around the eyes, as well as copper peptides that are said to promote healthy collagen production and improve elasticity.

One pump, morning or night, around the eyes is all you need.

The Drunk Elephant A-Shaba Complex Eye Serum is priced at $98 and available at

and Sephora stores.
