INDULGENT WELLNESS RETREATS AT PELICAN HILL

Our idea of self-care has nothing to do with monastic surroundings and a vow of silence. Fortunately, The Resort at Pelican Hill, a Forbes Travel Guide five-star hotel, shares this view. Their new wellness retreats feature activities like a guided walk along Crystal Cove Beach, sunrise yoga overlooking the Pacific, aqua mat classes in the Coliseum Pool (one of the largest circular pools in the world), lessons in aromatherapy essential oil blending, one-on-one transformation coaching sessions and lots of time in the spa for services that include Coastal Renewal, Espresso Detoxifier and Zen Awakening. And, when it’s time to sleep, guests will retire to their posh bungalow with a private terrace, warming fireplace, deep-soaking tub and customized in-room wellness amenities. (Packages start at $1,540 per person for three days and two nights or $2,385 for four days and three nights.) :: pelicanhill.com

ONE, TWO, THREE: SKINCARE DONE!

Unlike other made-in-Korea skincare lines that require layering a multitude of products, the vegan Sigi Skin, newly available in the U.S., takes a minimalist approach. Launched in 2018, the brand has only three hardworking products. The jelly-like Kaleanser Face Wash ($38) contains kale and soy extracts to gently remove the day’s makeup and dirt. Pink Nectar Eye Cream ($62) doubles as a hydrating lip mask and boasts five different kinds of hyaluronic acid, along with peach extract, lavender and rosemary oils and nutrients like Vitamin E and niacinamide. Morning Glow Physical Sunscreen ($58) manages the trick of formulating zinc oxide and titanium dioxide into a light whipped texture that leaves behind no white residue. With fatty acids that include avocado and acai extracts, it can take the place of a moisturizer. :: sigiskin.com

A NEW WAY TO PUMP UP THE VOLUME

Not ready to commit to salon eyelash extensions but love the idea of waking up with a fluttery fringe? Enter Moitié, lashes that last for about 10 days, take just minutes to apply (with practice, that is), and will stay curled and lush through workouts, showers, swims and even a good cry over the latest season of “This Is Us.” Choose from natural, light glam or full glam extensions in silk or mink. (Trust us, “natural” will be glam enough for most.) Each kit contains three sets of eyelashes, tweezers, priming glue, removable gel and collagen eye patches. ($99 for silk, $159 for mink):: moitiecosmetics.com

YOUR READY-FOR-FALL FOUNDATION

Charlotte Tilbury’s new Airbrush Flawless Foundation ($44) is making its debut just when many of us are ready to swap summer’s dewy tinted moisturizers for something a bit more substantial. The finish is matte and the coverage full, yet the base still feels weightless on the skin, thanks to something called Magic MossCellTec No. 1 that provides a surge of long-lasting hydration. With 44 shades covering four overtones (fair, medium, tan and deep) and three undertones (cool, neutral and warm), you’ll want to visit a makeup counter to find the perfect match for your skin. And keep your blending brush or sponge nearby when you apply at home. The foundation sets into the skin almost instantly so you’ll want to buff it out straight away. :: charlottetilbury.com
