Volume Dry Texture Spray Jumbo, £20 | Verb
This texturising spray is designed to lift hair that just needs a little extra something. We love the way it adds a bit of grit to clean hair for better body and bounce. We recommend spraying it into the lengths to create beachy texture or nearer to the roots to add body.

This double-sided stick is ideal for busy people on the go. One end is designed to contour, while the other highlights and lifts. Formulated with a creamy consistency, it’s the product to use if you want to give underpainting a go – a technique where you apply contour and highlight underneath foundation instead of on top.
