Crystals can be used for a variety of reasons, such as clearing energy or as ornamental earth-grown chachki’s that help to set ‘a vibe’.

But one crystal use you may not have been aware of, is that many cutting-edge skin care formulations are now utilising these hunks of mineral to target real-life skin issues.

Don’t believe us? Gems like ruby, diamond and malachite are just some of the glam inclusions in these four skin-refining formulas that retexture, refresh and revitalise.

For a gleaming complexion that beams just as bright as the jewels responsible for your glow, here are some crystal-infused skin care picks:
