While you may know KORRES for their extraordinary Lip Butters, you should also know that they make equally exceptional skin and body care products. I have selected three of my favorite skincare products for the warmer months of the year, and I love them so much that I just had to share them with you.
KORRES Pomegranate Cleansing & Make Up Removing Wipes For Oily And Combination Skin ($15.00 for 25 wipes from KORRES and Sephora): These wipes are perfect for wiping away sweat, impurities and excess dirt from your face before you reapply your sunscreen during your fun in the sun during the spring and summer! While these pre-saturated wipes are perfect for oily and combination skin, they are also well-suited for all skin types.
According to KORRES,
The highly-effective Korres Pomegranate Cleansing & Make Up Removing Wipes remove dirt, makeup, and oil from face and eyes. Great for all skin types especially oily and combination, each pre-saturated wipe eliminates impurities, tightens pores, and offers antioxidant protection.

KORRES Wild Rose Brightening 24-Hour Moisturizer ($38.00 for 1.35 oz. from KORRES, Skin Store, Beautylish and Sephora): This ultra-luxe brightening moisturizer is lightweight, fast absorbing and deeply moisturizing. Formulated for all skin types, this Vitamin C-based face cream offers sustained moisture for an impressive length of time, and it noticeably brightens the skin. It leaves skin soft, smooth, hydrated and luminous. It has a faint, very pleasant rose aroma, but it does fade soon after it is absorbed into the skin. This fantastic moisturizer just so happens to double as a seriously effective primer that increases the longevity of your foundation wear-time, and gives skin a dewy finish.According to KORRES,
Wild Rose 24-Hour Moisturising and Brightening Cream was the first skincare formula developed by George and Lena Korres in 1996 at the KORRES homeopathic pharmacy in Athens, Greece.
This Wild Rose moisturizer is formulated with a range of natural ingredients that moisturize and brighten the complexion. Wild rose oil, a natural source of vitamin C, helps repair the look of fine lines and skin discolorations, while imperata-cylindrica extract, derived from a desert plant, helps to provide continuous all-day hydration by helping to regulate the skin’s equilibrium.

KORRES Pomegranate Balancing Cream-Gel Moisturiser ($34.00 for 1.35 oz. from KORRES, Skin Store, Beautylish and Sephora): I must preface what's to follow by stating that I have an unmitigated obsession with this cream-gel moisturizer. It is formulated for oily to combination skin types, and is a delight when used on my normal/combination skin. It boasts an antioxidant-rich, nourishing formula that is very lightweight and fast absorbing, and it immediately delivers serious hydration. It effectively balances the skin without drying it out, and it leaves skin with a natural, semi-matte finish. The aroma is a light fruity floral that I find utterly delectable. This is the perfect daily moisturizer for the warm-weather, and if you have combination to oily-skin it is a great choice, period! I like to add a little to my foundations to transform them into tinted moisturizers, and its cream-gel texture acts as a built-in primer.
