2009, is the 10-year anniversary of Chanel’s Précision skincare range, which has always drawn on the scientific expertise of both dermatology (tick) and cosmetology (big tick!). The skincare line continues to grow in popularity every year, as its skincare solutions target three key areas: scientific research, listening to women’s needs, and of course, luxury - for absolute pleasure.

The four latest ranges to be added to the Précision line are Sublimage and Ultra Correction, which both focus on targeting wrinkles and loss of firmness in the skin, Hydramax for intense moisturisation and White Essentiel, aimed at Asian women in particular who want to even out their skin tone for a flawless look.

For a limited time you can purchase the Sumblimage Luxury Voyage Set for $460. Not only are the products great, I adore the packaging. In true Chanel style, it is understated and elegant to the point where I wonder if I might just leave the products in the original box and position it on my bathroom counter for decoration for the next few years. But alas, the great pull of feminine, decadent products is too overwhelming, to my skin’s delight.

If you’re still not convinced that you deserve to splurge on such beautiful skincare, then perhaps you need the wise words of Mademoiselle Chanel herself: “The more feminine a woman, the stronger she is”. That’s justification enough for me - just don’t show your partner the credit card bill!
