If you’ve decided that 2023 is going to be the year you finally give your skin what it needs to stay youthful and radiant looking and kick those premature signs of aging into touch, then you could be forgiven for feeling completely overwhelmed by the sheer amount of choice on the market today.
From our favourite high-end department stores to those upmarket apothecaries, luxurious lotions and potions promising incredible results are just about everywhere you look – but with a long list of impressive-sounding ingredients on every bottle, how do you know which one is right for you?
The good news that it doesn’t have to be so confusing, and leading luxury skincare brand Faryal.co is a prime example of how keeping things simple can go a long way. Focusing on the finest natural ingredients that have been known for their nourishing and anti-aging benefits for centuries, this stylish newcomer to the high-end beauty market has been taking it by storm – and from its beautiful packaging for the impressive results on offer, it’s easy to see why.
Born of founder Faryal Memon’s own passion for personal care and wellbeing, the brand draws on her wealth of experience garnered from working in the field across Europe and Asia, and offers up a carefully curated selection of high-quality and cruelty-free products and fragrances, all manufactured under the Faryal brand.
Featuring only the very finest ingredients and fragrances, the range is ever-evolving, with each inclusion designed to help preserve and enhance natural beauty and leave you looking and feeling your very best. All products – which include anti-aging skincare, fragrances for men and women, and reed diffusers for the home – are formulated and handmade from natural ingredients right here in the UK, and undergo rigorous laboratory testing to ensure they are fully compliant.
Faryal’s passion for natural ingredients began at a young age, and she could regularly be found mixing up nourishing concoctions for skin and hair in her kitchen, inspired by her mother’s own love for organic products. Despite receiving encouraging feedback from sharing the family and friends with whom she shared them, at that point, it remained just a hobby, with Faryal going on to pursue a different path at college, where she completed a Bachelor’s in Hotel Management and Business Studies.
Afterwards, she began leading a jet-set lifestyle that took her to high-end luxury hotels across Europe and Asia – and it was whilst living and working in these plush environments that she developed a taste for the finer things in life when it came to beauty, falling in love with the high-end products used in the resorts’ opulent spas and health clubs.
Fast forward to today, and the Faryal.co brand is a name on everyone’s lips when it comes to luxury beauty, and Faryal herself has recently completed a comprehensive skincare course focusing on the improvement of skin tone and texture, boosting radiance and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, with plans to up-level her range even further.
But while excellent products like these play a key role when it comes to maintaining optimal skin health and that beautiful, radiant glow, Faryal believes that they aren’t the only contributing factor.
“I believe in a level of consistency in self-care, longevity and sustainability,” she says. “And for this reason, to obtain the excellent results that I would love for you to experience for yourself, I advise regular and consistent use of the Faryal.co product range. Anti-aging should be part of one’s skincare routine from age 20 and beyond.
“Cleansing morning and evening, with a cleanser designed for your specific skin type, and following up with a good toner and moisturer, is essential.
“Whilst it’s, of course, important to look after yourself from the outside, beauty and good health really do start from the inside, so exercising regularly and nourishing your body with natural foods full of vitamins and minerals is also really important when it comes to looking and feeling your best.”
Hero products in the Faryal.co ranges for men and women include the Anti-Aging serum – an essential addition to your daily skincare regime that is packed with nourishing ingredients like jojoba seed oil, argan kernel oil and rosehip fruit oil to stimulate regeneration of the epidermis and reduce the appearance of vertical wrinkles after only seven consistent days of use. It’s pretty impressive stuff, and it’s easy to see why it’s such a top seller – alongside the Age-Erasing Smoothing Eye Cream and Primer, which claims to instantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with the help of clever smoothing elasticisers.
When it comes to confidence, feeling as if you look your best is a large piece of the puzzle, but smelling incredible is just as important. A well-chosen scent has the power to positively impact upon your mood and will make a great first impression. The WudOud Eau de Parfum is a sensual and distinctive Arabian-inspired fragrance combining the essence of Brazilian agarwood, rosewood, cardamom, sandalwood and amber with vetiver and vanilla to great effect, and is available for both men and women.
Meanwhile, the Yasmine Eau de Parfum, designed especially for women is fresh, feminine and floral, exuding a sophisticated combination of heady gardenia, velvety jasmine and delicate violet, with a touch of sandalwood to give it a dreamy, romantic finish. And exclusively for men, the Iconic Eau de Parfum embodies the man who seeks to push his limits, balancing freshness and sensuality in a delightfully addictive fragrance, with notes of mandarin orange, neroli, pepper, cedar, amber and musk.
In Faryal’s ‘Home’ range, you can also find Wood Oud in a reed diffuser form, so if you can’t quite seem to get enough of it, then what more sophisticated way to fragrance your home could there be? Rosewood, sandalwood and cardamom are again key notes, combining flawlessly with vetiver, pepper and tonka bean. And the Citron Reed Diffuser, which exudes the zesty scent of sherbet with notes of mandarin orange and lime, is the perfect alternative if you’re looking for a fresh, vibrant and uplifting scent.
