Take a wonder ingredient that has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine and sprinkle its magic into make-up. This is what Bobbi Brown is doing with cordyceps. This anti-ageing, anti-inflammatory fungus is a key ingredient in its new Luxe Radiance Loose Powder, Intensive Serum Foundation SPF40PA++++ and Intensive Skin Serum Radiance Primer SPF25PA++. These hybrid beauty products – available at Bobbi Brown boutiques and department stores – are master multitaskers, thanks to their skin-loving properties.

This loose powder is said to set makeup for 24 hours and controls oil for eight hours. Its ultra-fine and light-reflecting recipe means your pores are less visible while balancing skin for a soft and radiant appearance.
