Like most people, I love the summer months. I love that I don’t have to worry about bulky coats ruining my outfits, I love being able to be outside and actually enjoy it and, most of all, I love lapping up all of that vitamin D. However, that’s not to say that I don’t seriously struggle with the heat.  While the summer usually leaves my skin glowing and my hair subtly sun-kissed, withstanding the uncomfortable heat sometimes makes it feel like it’s not worth it. It makes me lethargic, agitated and flustered. On top of that, hot weather can really take its toll on our summer beauty routines, too. From melting foundation to sweat-inducing moisturisers, there’s nothing enjoyable about trying to beautify yourself in 25+ climes. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking...

However, while much of my collection comes from market stalls and independent shops that are difficult to trace back, my love of soaps has turned into a personal mission to uncover the best soaps out there. Along with candles, fancy hand soaps have become a default whenever I fancy treating myself to something I wouldn’t ordinarily buy, which I then use on rotation depending on the time of year, or a particular scent I’m pining for. Friends and family have also commented that they anticipate seeing which soap – be it a liquid or a bar – I’ll have sitting on my sink when they next visit. Over time, I’ve tried just about every soap out there and, of course, I have my favourites. So, whether you’re a fellow soap aficionado or you simply want to elevate your bathroom, scroll below to see the b...

Although it still remains ambiguous as to the exact products she plans to launch, five specific names were mentioned in the application: Buff Ryder, Instant Reset, Fat Water, Flash Nap & Hydra Vizor (we are SO intrigued). From recent videos posted on social media, it looks likely there will at least be a foamy cleanser, serum and moisturiser in the mix.  The other big piece of news we know, although it shouldn’t come as a surprise, is that Rihanna is planning on shaking up the game again with her products being aimed at both women and men. She’s even got ASAP Rocky and Lil Nas X starring in the launch campaign. Replying to a fan on twitter she said ‘Whoever told you skincare has a gender, LIED to you!’ Those shared bathroom cabinets are about to get a lot more streamlined and...

No. 5 has been the fragrance of choice for many celebrities over the years, the most iconic being Marilyn Monroe, who famously stated that she wore nothing to bed except for the scent. Fast forward to the present, and Victoria Beckham, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Eva Mendes, Nicole Kidman, Jessica Alba, Claudia Schiffer, and Celine Dion are all reportedly fans. French women can’t get enough of it either. Legendary actress Catherine Deneuve once loaned her prowess as the face of the fragrance; a covetable role which has, just this year, been passed onto the incredibly chic Marion Cotillard ahead of the perfume’s 100th birthday in 2021. Its impressive fanbase aside, Chanel No. 5’s status is also reflective of the perfume’s quality; a highly sophisticated blend of ...

If many years of being a beauty editor and interviewing some of the world’s most beautiful models has taught me one thing it’s this: Genetics count for a lot. So many times in my career have I sat down to quiz supermodels with buttery complexions, thick, luscious lengths and perfectly made-up faces on their beauty secrets and have come away with no real insights at all. Because the truth is, so much of it is down to genetics. In fact, one supermodel I spoke to a few years ago informed she simply washes her face with a splash of tap water in the morning and she’s good to go. More often than not, I would walk away feeling hard done by and wondering where I could be going wrong with my own beauty routine. It poses the question: How is it possible that all of these beautiful women th...

But first, when we discuss sustainable beauty products, what do we actually mean? Typically, the term is used to describe products using environmentally-friendly formulations, ethical production practices or packaging methods and, for sustainable cosmetic products in particular, the use of natural ingredients produced from renewable raw materials. Thankfully, finding these products is getting easier, thanks to a host of brands that are already pushing towards a more sustainable and greener planet.

There are significant perks to being a beauty editor. Getting to play with makeup all day is one, being privy to some of the most well-kept industry secrets is another. The most obvious, however, is the fact that we are constantly surrounded by the latest products. Whether it’s the latest serum or mascara, you better believe we’ve tried every last thing that we recommend out for ourselves. And it truly is a wonderful thing. Over the last few months, however, us beauty editors have found ourselves in a bit of a conundrum. You see, part of our job is receiving numerous parcels a day, each containing the latest products so that we can test them and review them for ourselves. And while this can be easily managed in an office environment where storage and recycling bins are a ple...

Hands up if you’re a fully-fledged member of the “hot cloth cleanser fan club.” I certainly am, and I’ll tell anyone who sits next to me long enough about my love for this cult beauty product. When I say cult, I really mean it. This year Liz Earle is celebrating 25 years of their hero product which sells every 15 seconds globally and has won over 130 industry awards. Being a brand’s best-selling product for so long certainly says something to its credit, but if you need any more persuasion let me fill you in on its wonders.  In the current beauty landscape where new product launches happen every day, we can all sometimes feel a little overwhelmed on which products to actually take the plunge with. As a result, tried and tested products can sometimes be overlooked...

Once upon a time, the Great British department store reigned supreme over the beauty industry. From the latest skincare innovations to some of the most luxe makeup that money could buy, if you were serious about beauty, a department store was always the first port of call. Though, over the years, as new brands began popping up left, right and centre, online beauty destinations grew ever more popular. One particular store, however, has managed to maintain its position as a beauty hotspot, in part due to it’s prominence not only on the high street but also as a sleek virtual destination.  In fact, we’d go as far as to say that John Lewis & Partners is fast becoming our beauty destination of choice. During the recent lockdown, the store’s online offering, that ranges...

I love glowing skin. I like my skin to have a bronze-looking glow all day long and any product that helps me achieve that while looking natural is an instant winner. And this product is just that. As far as ingredients go, it contains all the same skin-loving technology as the original formula to help support cell turnover and radiance. The main addition, however, is that the new Golden shade contains amber, bronze and white light-reflecting pearl to boost glow and radiance, and there is no pigment in there, so matching skin tone isn’t a worry. Any of the bronzy-looking colour that comes out of the tube is only a result of the pearl, meaning it disperses into a sheer, translucent veil. To tell you the truth, it really took for this formula to come my way to understand what it is that I dis...

The ingredient in question? Vitamin C. Also known as ascorbic acid, vitamin C might not be anything new, but it’s certainly a bit of a wonder ingredient if you aren’t already using it. Found naturally in wide range of fruit and vegetables, it’s essential to help maintain a healthy complexion by protecting your skin cells and promoting healing. As someone with acne-prone skin, I started using a vitamin C serum daily when a facialist advised me that vitamin C is a great ingredient to use if you’re looking to fade pigmentation or dark spots caused by old spots. But I was interested to find out what other benefits this ingredient has to offer. After all, since using it regularly, I’ve noticed that my scarring has diminished and my complexi...
