BEAUTY BUYS

From skin and haircare to make-up and pampering body products, our extensive range of award-winning beauty brands has everything you need to look and feel your best. Here are some of our favourites

 

Skin deep

Getting your skincare right should be the first building block in any beauty routine. We’ve got a whole host of skincare brands, so finding the right product for your skin type is easy: we cover it all. From luxury brands such as Clinique and Ren to our very own Fresh Elements range, there’s something for every budget and need.

Start your routine by cleansing with Emma Hardie’s cult Moringa Cleansing Balm to melt away make-up and impurities. Next, revitalise and tighten with a toner – Fresh Elements Sunshine Tonic contains glycolic acid to brighten and illuminate your skin. Finish with a moisturiser: we like Ren’s Evercalm Day Cream, which soothes your skin and creates a barrier against pollution. If you want sun protection too, choose Clinique’s Moisture Surge SPF25. To give your skin a little extra love, use a special cream for night-time, such as a jar of our Apothecary Revive Overnight Recovery Cream.

Why not really treat yourself with our Beauty Discovery Edit? This carefully curated box of beauty goodies from brands such as Pixi, L’Occitane, Ren and Percy & Reed is worth £120, but costs just £25. Or, for the man in your life, discover our Grooming Edit.

The mane attraction

Keeping your crowning glory in perfect condition is never easy – it can be affected by stress and environmental factors (or even using hair straighteners too frequently). This is when you need to fire up the big guns and get your hands on our troubleshooting haircare buys to breathe life back into your locks.

Got dry, damaged or unruly hair? Treat with our Apothecary Nourish Shampoo, containing sweet almond milk, cedarwood and wheatgerm. Its thick and luxurious creamy lather will moisturise and restore damaged hair. If frizzy, flyaway hair is an issue, try the Dream Coat Supernatural Spray by Color Wow to transform your hair into the sleek tresses you’ve always craved. Simply spray onto damp hair and blow dry to activate its frizz-fighting qualities. And if you’ve got no time to wash or treat your hair, Living Proof’s dirt-busting dry shampoo is the go-to you need to transform limp, unwashed hair in serious need of TLC.

Kiss and make-up

Whether you have drawers packed with make-up or a pared-back collection that fits in one bag, everyone needs a few stalwarts in their cosmetic armoury to help them look and feel their best. These cult make-up heroes are few and far between, but when you find one that works for you, stock up and buy on repeat.

Say hello to Stila’s Stay All Day Liquid Liner: it’s easy to apply, it dries quickly and as the name suggests, it stays on all day. Finish off eyes with feathery, fan-shaped lashes using Benefit’s Fan Fest Mascara, which builds length and volume without flakes or clumps – farewell, costly extensions. If you love the idea of lipstick, but fancy something a little more subtle, try Clinique’s Almost Lipstick in Black Honey. It’s got an almost transparent, balm-like quality, giving a subtle hint of colour that enhances your lips’ natural shade. Our final pick is the iconic, multi-tasking Benetint by Benefit –sweep it over cheeks and lips for a barely-there youthful glow.

Body and soul

Beauty products that make you feel good as well as looking good are worth their weight in gold. Unwinding in a fragranced bath at the end of the day, soothing hard-working hands with indulgent hand cream such as L’Occitane’s Shea Butter and using aromas to boost or calm your mood are all great ways to pamper your mind as well as your body.

One of our all-time favourite indulgent buys is Nuxe’s Huile Prodigieuse Multipurpose Oil. Made from a cocktail of seven botanical oils, it can be used as a face, body or hair treatment – wherever you need help. Massage into skin to help improve the appearance of stretch marks or use as an intensive hair oil to nourish. And don’t forget, the best beauty treatment of all is a good night’s sleep – if you need a helping hand, use Deep Sleep Pillow Spray by This Works to lull you off to the land of Nod.
