While you spent most of December rummaging around preparing, sorting and wrapping for the season of goodwill, you quite possibly forgot to treat yourself.
But Total MK says it is ok to give the credit card an early year outing at the Sisley counter.
After all, the premium brand always delivers, and is unfaltering in its approach to supporting our skin and beauty regimes.
As you ease yourself into the new year, you would be best accompanied by Sisley's terrific Black Rose Cream Mask.
The fragrant, creamy consistency meets the skin with ease and sets about meeting its promise of giving instant youth - it works hard on signs of fatigue, giving way to energised, youthful skin.
If you are feeling flat, Sisley will plump you up, leaving a youthful look in its wake.
Black Rose, Padina Pavonica, Shea Butter and Pro-Vitamin B5 are among the luminosity restorers.
The mask can be used twice, or thrice, weekly. Simply apply to the face and neck and leave for 10 minutes or so, for a result that is calmed, improved and smoother.
Face up to fatigue and banish it with Sisley at your side.
> And for a splash of Sisley elegance that works all the time, invest in Eau du Soir, a fragrance that dances between citrus and floral.
It's as pretty as it is timeless, and housed in a bottle that is strong-looking, timeless and the stopper - 18-carat matte gold-plated - has been designed by award-winning Polish sculptor Bronislaw Krzysztof.
It is, just as it sounds, exquisite.
