This month we’re loving H20 Plus skincare products.

Typically we like our cleanser rich and creamy, but when temperatures soar a gel cleanser can be delightfully refreshing. The H20 Plus Marine Cleansing Gel is an oil-free water-based gel that foams away makeup, oil and impurities and leaves behind a super fresh scent.

Also in this collection is the Face Oasis Hydrating Treatment , an oil free gel moisturizer that doubles as a hydrating mask. It’s a bummer there’s no SPF in this because it feels so cool and refreshing on the skin—perfect for the summer months.

Rounding out the regimen is the Night Oasis Oxygenating Rejuvenator , a night cream with ingredients like sea fennel, sea lettuce and wakame (sea kelp). Extremely light and hydrating, this night cream delivers fantastic results. After several days of use our skin felt (and looked) revitalized.

H20 Plus Oasis skincare line can be found at H20Plus.com and at the H20 Plus free-standing stores .

It’s no secret that our heart belongs to Chanel Sublimage Essential Regenerating Cream. We named it as our top product of 2007 and remain completely enamored with its ability to transform our skin.

Now, dear Makeup Bag readers, our favorite anti-aging cream has a partner in crime: SUBLIMAGE SÉRUM Essential Regenerating Concentrate.

With two times the Planifolia PFA of the cream along with the ultra-rich Planifolia concentrated water, this powerful serum delivers serious anti-aging benefits. Paired with the Sublimage Essential Regenerating Cream, our skin is beyond rejuvenized.

However, let us warn you, one must be serious about their anti-aging regime to consider this product. At $385 per ounce, it’s no bargain. (Unless, of course, you’re married to a tycoon or are willing to pay any price for radiant, youthful, even toned skin.)

SUBLIMAGE SÉRUM Essential Regenerating Concentrate is currently available at select department stores and online at Chanel.com.

As always, the promise of youthful skin captures us with Estée Lauder Re-Nutriv Ultimate Youth Creme.

This “youth prolonging” moisturizer, used both morning and night, has key ingredients like Resveratrate (Estée Lauder’s patent pending Youth Molecule that has shown to provide 6 times more protection from environmental damage causing skin to look and behave younger), South Sea Pearls and calming Red & Brown Algae.

As with most luxury skin creams, Re-Nutriv comes with a hefty price tag of $250—but considering it’s the Ultimate Youth Creme, that’s a steal.

It’s hard to tell in this photo, but hiding behind our jet lag, puffy eyes and crows feet is THE happiest skin we’ve had in a long time (and typically our skin is pretty happy).

The night before we snapped this self-portrait, Julia offered to share her sample of CHANEL Sublimage Essential Regenerating Cream with us. We should add here that we’re no stranger to the Sublimage line—we’ve been using the luxurious Sublimage Eye Cream for several months now (very sparingly, as we know the world will come to an end when we run out)—but for the LOVE OF OUR BEAUTY BLOGGING FRIENDS, why did we not know how miraculous this product is?!

Less than six hours after applying CHANEL Sublimage Essential Regenerating Cream, we awoke to skin so impossibly glorious, we assumed we were still asleep and in the midst of the best dream we’d had all year.

Before you excuse yourself to go throw up—let us just say one thing: The price tag of this cream will not deter us; we will sell a kidney before we go another day without it.

(Also, we just heard from our friends at Bergdorf Goodman that a serum is soon to be released. We may as well just schedule our harvesting surgery now!)
