Supermodels Helena Christensen and Shalom Harlow are known for their glowing, age-defying skin. Now, they’ve finally spilled their secret: Votary.

Votary is a small-batch U.K. skin-care brand developed by makeup artist Arabella Preston. The vegan brand is focused on plant oils and botanicals that clean and care for your face, and their Intense Night Oil ($196) has drawn some big-name fans.

Helena Christensen, supermodel and former Miss Universe Denmark 1986, shared her love for the Intense Night Oil’s retinoid formula. “This is so cool and silky to apply, so it’s great for all skin types,” Christensen says. “It smooths the eye area, giving a real glow that you won’t get from moisturizer or cream.”

Shalom Harlow has been a household name in fashion and beauty since the 90s, and she relies on Votary products to retain her naturally glowing complexion. Just like Christensen, she uses the Intense Night Oil for its gentle retinoid formula. Harlow also turns to Votary’s Daily Apple toner ($24), which gently brightens and smooths with AHAs like malic and lactic acids.
