Introducing your new-season heroes
WORDS: RHIANNON DERBYSHIRE
BEAUTY on a budget
Root refresher
Coordinating your workout schedule with your hair-wash days can be a bit of a minefield, but Batiste 24H Active Dry Shampoo, £4.59, Boots,is the ultimate solution. It’s specially designed to absorb sweat, so hair looks and smells wonderfully fresh.
Scalp saviour
Your scalp is the secret behind the success of your hair – it has a huge impact on growth and health. L’Oréal Paris Elvive Hydra Pure Oil Control Scalp Serum, £9.99, Superdrug, combats oily roots, leaving it clear, clean and balanced.
Scrubs up well
If you have dry, chapped lips, use a lip scrub on them before you reach for your favourite balm. It’ll buff away dead skin, which will smooth them and help the formula sink in better. Barry M Soufflé Lip Scrub, £4.99, barrym.com,is brilliant and comes in Sweet Candy and Strawberry Cheesecake flavours.
Calming cleanser
If you have dry or sensitive skin, Garnier Hyaluronic Aloe Cream Cleanser, £9.99, Boots,is ideal to use daily. It’s incredibly hydrating, because it has hyaluronic acid and aloe vera extracts in it, so the skin will feel soft and soothed, rather than tight.
Curb crow’s feet
This eye cream will leave skin around the eyes looking smoother and fresher, thanks to the trio of hydrators in the formula. Skin Proud Secure the Barrier Eye Cream, £14.95, iamproud.com,contains ceramides, squalane and vitamin E, plus caffeine to help reduce dark circles.
Lash lifter
E.l.f. Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, £7, elfcosmetics.co.uk, is a brilliant new mascara.
The silicone wand helps push the lashes up, while helping them look longer. It’s available in two shades of black – a softer and deeper tone – plus a brown one for a more natural look.
Hydration hit
No7’s new range that’s all about nourishing the skin, so it looks healthy, radiant and plump. We especially like
No7 Hydra Luminous+ Dual Phase Mask, £14.95, Boots, which blends hydrating hyaluronic acid with strengthening niacinamide.
