Editors' picks: must-have September Cathay Shop products
As the cooler autumnal temperatures begin to settle in, it’s hard to resist the call of the mountains – from short, easy hikes to hidden trails that offer a respite from the crowds. Before joining in on the fun, make sure you’re well equipped with hiking essentials. And while you're out enjoying the fresh air, don't forget that the drop in humidity can leave your skin dull, tight and sometimes itchy. That’s why it’s important to transition your skincare routine from summer to autumn with nourishing, moisturising goodies – all available on Cathay Shop .

These ingredients offer antioxidant benefits and help prevent water loss, improving your skin’s texture and reducing the appearance of fine lines and redness.
