Inspired by the sea, New Zealand-made Obiqo utilises nutrient-rich sea kelp with botanicals in a range of beautiful, nourishing skincare.

The daily regime begins with Obiqo gentle face wash and gentle face scrub for a clean start. To tone and refresh, spritz face with Obiqo hydrating mist. Prepare skin for the day with Obiqo protective day cream with SPF15. And, at the end of the day, replenish skin with Obiqo restoring night cream, and, for the eye area, Obiqo smoothing eye cream.

Thread’s pick is the Intensive Facial Serum, a light-yet-rich hydrating serum that calms the skin as it goes on.

The formulation combines European marine anti-ageing extracts with New Zealand sea kelp, all sustainably harvested. Marine collagen moisturises and firms skin, marine elastin helps fight fine lines and wrinkles, and the minerals, vitamins and amino acids in sea kelp nourish skin.

Below: the Obiqo packaging in its marine teal green and white, with metal casing. Retail prices are: face wash $29.50, face scrub $39.50, toner $19.50, day cream $49.50, night cream $59.50, eye cream $49.50, serum $55.50. For more information and where to buy see www.obiqoskincare.com
