THE EDITOR'S SECRET

When looking your best is part of the job description, the all-round, all-day serum Augustman's Editor turns to is Suntory Varon

- JONATHAN HO 

IT’S A COMMON REFRAIN that an Editor’s day job is done at night. During the working hours, I’m attending events and meeting brand managers, either catching the newsworthy or discussing projects. After hours, is when the writing and editing work happens. Suffice it to say, I keep long hours and inadequate sleep tends to raise your cortisol levels. This hormone triggers inflammation, which breaks down the proteins that keep your skin smooth and glowing, and it can also make your skin more prone to acne and more sensitive to allergic reactions. With a full schedule and a job that requires you to look and feel your best, where can an Editor turn? Suntory Varon.

A lotion, serum and cream, Suntory’s new facial product is a three-in-one men’s skincare essential that takes the guesswork out of skincare for busy individuals. Harnessing a water-in-oil-in-water emulsion technology with extracts from whisky barrel wood and oolong tea, Suntory Varon is my go-to essential for laying on the foundation of skincare before I apply sunscreen and head out the door.
