Kim always dreamed of having her own skincare range, and even with years of experience in the New York beauty industry she never found a truly unique, pure and natural ingredient that provided effective results.

Until she moved to the Netherlands for love.

Her partner, a fourth generation tulip farmer, provided a beautiful yet simple ingredient to enrich her skincare concept – his globally renowned award-winning royal tulips.

So, what skincare benefits do tulips actually possess? A lot. They promote cellular growth (tulips are one of the only flowers that continue to grow after being cut!), are rich in amino acids, boost collagen through plant hormone found in the flower and act as a natural humectant. (After all, a tulip can hold up to its entire body weight in water.) All of these botanical powers translate to softer, smoother and glowingly hydrated skin.

If you use a lot of acids, retinols, exfoliants, you might want to look into this moisturizer by Labco. It's the Biome Boost Cream. It adds a lot of hydration, but it also repopulates and balances the skin microbiome. I don't have any products like this, so I'm really excited to see if it helps balance out my skin in between peels and retinol uses. It also strengthens and protects the skin barrier, so I'll be using this under makeup as well just to protect my skin from all the layers that I put on it. As a makeup artist, I'm always in makeup, so I'm really excited to use this for the next few weeks. And so far, I do like the texture a lot, and it smells like jasmine tea, so this is kind of like a home spa treatment, if you ask me.

If you're exfoliating your skin using tretinoin, retinol, or any other exfoliating acid, or your skin is just irritated or going through it at the moment, you're going to want to have a cream like this one on hand. This is the Labco's Biome Boost Cream. This has prebiotics and probiotics plus collagen. If you didn't know, pre and probiotics help to rebalance the skin and restore your skin's microbiome, while collagen helps to keep signs of aging at bay, which we all love that. I'm all for some anti-aging. It has a rich and creamy texture, but it still feels lightweight on the skin. You can see that even goes on so clear. And it just melts into the skin, giving it all this hydration. It has a very light and clean scent, so nothing to worry about there. But you can see how that just makes the skin look so much better, and it feels good. If you're dealing with any tightness or irritation, this is going to help to soothe it. So if your skin's in need of some help right now, or it gets easily irritated, this is definitely one to reach for.
