Doctors Formula’s Caffeine Serum, £34.90
This powerful skin smoothing serum diminishes the visible signs of ageing, whilst smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
Containing 1% Caffeine, Ice Wine Elixir, Pro Vitamin B5 and Citric Acid AHA, this lightweight formula restores skin suppleness and reduces the appearance of dry, damaged skin.
Caffeine-infused skincare helps to reduce inflammation and redness, so complexions look more refined too.
Moreover, it absorbs quickly into the skin, so it’s also great for oily / combination skin types.
This is Silk Hair Curler, £32.99
Social media users may have seen the new craze for heat-free hair curling on TikTok – people are trying all kinds of methods to get bouncy, long-lasting curls, without heat damage.
This Is Silk’s 100% mulberry silk hair curler can be used on damp manes to help create lust-worthy waves without the heat damage.
The friction-free material helps to actively condition tresses with its amino acids, leaving it smooth and glossy whilst gradually curling locks.
Simply wrap damp hair around the band, fasten with silk scrunchies and leave to dry naturally while you relax, or sleep comfortably.

Acquire a fuller-looking pout without the sting with this hydrating lip oil from Catrice.
Containing four nourishing oils from avocado, coconut, jojoba and almond in combination with caring hyaluronic acid, this lip oil is the perfect partner for a radiant pout.
The nourishing Glossy Lip Oil with its shiny, soft oil texture lies softly on the lips and has the subtle scent of fresh mint.
The Power Full 5 Glossy Lip Oil is available in five different shades, which gently react to the
natural pH value of the lips to create an unique shade suited to your skintone.
MBH Nourishing Skin Oil, £14
This dual-purpose body oil is packed with luxurious plant oils to smooth and soothe the skin, increasing elasticity and moisture, helping to protect against stretch marks.
The specially formulated blend of deeply nourishing plant oils includes Baobab, Buriti, Murula and Rosehip Oils to build the skin’s strength and help keep it soft and supple so that it retains epidermal elasticity.
Its lightweight formula quickly absorbs into the skin without a greasy feeling, leaving your skin beautifully hydrated, nourished and glowing.
Soap and Glory Thirst Aid Aqua Gel, £14
This lightweight water gel formulation uses Hyaluronic Acid to not only give skin a vital boost of hydration for 24 hours, but also to help plump and condition your complexion.
This is perfect for oily / combination skin types that want fast hydration without the greasy aftermath.
Skin feels supple, silky smooth and plumper after the first use. A true winner for summer.
ARRAN Sense of Scotland After The Rain EDT, £40
This best-selling fragrance from Arran Sense of Scotland is a summer daydream.
Combining a sensual blend of lime, rose and sandalwood, After the Rain is perfectly balanced for everyday wear, including notes of citrus fruits and musky floral and earthier tones of sandalwood.
Moreover, it feels refreshingly light when spritzed onto skin and is an instant mood booster.
Sunescape Instant Self-Tan Mousse, £26
Boasting skin hydrating ingredients, this fool-hardy formula sidesteps the fake tan faux-pas and allows for a streak free application of natural colour.
Enriched with conditioning macadamia nut, avocado and coconut oils and added antioxidants from green tea, kakadu plum, vitamin E and grape seed extract, it helps to nourish, plump and protect the skin to ensure an even distribution of sun-kissed glow. Its violet base exchanges Fanta undertones for a rich olive hue, preventing any orange-induced disasters. The fast-drying mousse develops in minutes and deepens within 3-4 hours, wearing evenly without any dreaded patchiness.
Sensifirm Cellulite Device, £319
This groundbreaking device helps to firm the skin and reduce cellulite with just 10 minutes of treatment once a week.
Using a unique dual-action process, this device has electrodes that gently massage your skin, sending radio waves deep into the skin layers to activate collagen production and decrease the volume of adipocytes (fat cells).
The pain-free massage technique helps to break down fat cells and release toxins at the same time, resulting in firmer and tighter skin. Results are noticeable after using the device just a few times.
Mavala Flower Magic Nail Polish, £5.50
Swiss nailcare brand, Mavala, is providing a fiery burst of colour with its new Flower Magic collection, ideal for summer. These luminous and resolutely optimistic red-and-rose-coloured variations of shades deliver bold results and a shiny, chip-free finish. We love the statement hue Kingston, an eye-catching, spicy orange.
Verso Daily Glow, £45
This results-driven moisturiser is a must for those who want the potency of Retinol without the sting.
Eight times more effective than typical Retinol in the same dosage, this phenomenal formula harnesses all the collagen-boosting, wrinkle-plumping, skin-rejuvenating benefits of vitamin A – but with less chances of irritation.
In addition, Turmeric + Niacinamide combine the ideal blend of spot-fighting and brightening ingredients. It also includes SPF 30 and protects from UVA, UVB + HEV, to tackle long-term sun damage.
Skin looks luminous and radiant upon the first application, with the Daily Glow calling on a swathe of vitamins and faux mica to improve skin health and encourage a dewier appearance. Undoubtedly a hero product for summer.
Urtekram’s new Soft Wild Rose Conditioner, £5.99
For those looking for vibrant colour and improved hair manageability, Urtekram’s Soft Wild Rose conditioner delivers both.
The formula contains seakale and beetroot extracts that protect the colour and shine on colour-treated hair even with frequent styling and cleansing.
Meanwhile, softening coconut oil in organic quality tames the hair and improves hair manageability.
Hair feels notably softer and smells glorious after using, and knots are so much easier to brush through.
