Glass & Gloss Megawatt Glow Pro-Facial, £65 | Beautybio
This is said to be the equivalent of 20 pro-grade facials in one jar, and I can believe it. Having (sadly) used it all up, I can confirm the results are impressive. One side features biodegradable nanodermabrasion crystals to gently exfoliate dead skin cells, while step two is powered by mineral-rich seawater and peptides to leave skin feeling smooth and supple. It won’t get rid of breakouts or uneven tone overnight, but it will help your skin look bouncier. A must-try before a night out or big event.

Honey Infused Lip Oil, £24 | Gisou
I’ve tried endless lip treatments over the years, but this has to be one of the best. At £35, it’s expensive, but it does so much more than just hydrate chapped lips. With a thin, glossy texture, it plumps them up and subtly enhances the look of them. Better still, it isn’t sticky and looks great on its own or layered on top of lipstick. Brimming with vitamins, minerals, amino acids and omegas, it’s indulgent, but so worth it.

Pro-Collagen Rose Facial Oil, £67 | Elemis
Being prone to sensitivities and breakouts, I’ve often steered clear of facial oils, but this one has converted me. Lightweight in texture with a matte – yet slightly dewy – dry down, it never feels too heavy or occlusive on your skin, just hydrating and soft. Using rose extract, sweet almond, coconut and jojoba oils, it brings dry, lacklustre skin back from the brink, while also giving it an instant luminosity. I like to warm it up in my hands and gently pat it onto my skin post-cleanse.

Hydrate & Calm CBD Gel Cream, £58 | Aurelia
Another product that’s great for sensitive skin types is this CBD Gel Cream from Aurelia. I got through this at lightning speed – the cool, gel-like texture immediately calmed my skin right down. Using CBD oil, hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, it’s a hydration hero, but you can also expect to see smoother, suppler skin and better glow. Bouncy in texture, it’s satisfying to apply and instantly absorbs into the skin with zero greasy or tacky residue left behind.

The Body Wash Eucalyptus, £25 | Nécessaire
There are plenty of good body washes around but few compare to the ones by Nécessaire. Full of buzzworthy ingredients – think omegas, vitamin E and niacinamide – they cleanse skin and sweep away dead cells. Better still, the eucalyptus scent is seriously soothing. Unlike some washes, it’s made from post-consumer recycled paperboard, so you never feel guilty throwing the bottle away if you get through it quickly, either.

Nail Polish in Fairy Tailor, £8.95 | Essie
If like me you love clean, healthy-looking nails, you’ll love the shade ‘Fairy Tailor’ from Essie. Similar to ‘Ballet Slippers’, it’s soft pink tone is the epitome of chic. The glossy finish is a bonus – expect a plump, gel-like finish, with or without a topcoat. I plan to stock up on several bottles now this one is finished.

05 Patchouli, £95 | Escentric Molecules
I will forever be a fan of Escentric Molecules’ 01 scent, but 05 is a nice twist on the classic – especially if you like your scents on the woody and warm side. With notes of amber, pine, musk and cashmere, it has a creamy, clean feel to it balanced by a green undertone. While it’s great for the cooler months, it works well in spring and summer too. It’s earnt me compliments every time I wear it, just like the original.

Brow Renew Enriched Clear Shaping Gel, £19.50 | Rose Inc
Everyone has raved about Rose Inc’s tinted brow gels, but it’s this clear one that really grabbed me. Using a waxy formula, it sets hairs firmly in place and holds them there all day, while the chunky brush gives hairs that fluffed-up finish I love. Ideal if your brows are already dark, this will keep them looking neat and tidy.

Smooth Body Oil, £30 | Mirror Water
There’s nothing I dislike in Estée Lalonde’s Mirror Water range, but this Body Oil is my top pick. Full of fatty acids and natural waxes, it softens and nourishes skin, soaking up dry patches and leaving behind visibly softer, healthier-looking limbs. It does all this without leaving behind any stickiness –something most body oils are guilt of. To help it absorb, massage it on post-shower while your skin is still warm. You’ll love the luxurious, silky feel.

Renaissance Body Treatment Milk, £45 | Oskia
A two-in-one, this lightweight body milk hydrates and exfoliates at the same time by combining in-built AHAs with retinol. That includes passionfruit, lemon, grape and pineapple, all of which gently break down dead cells or anything causing uneven skin tone. Plant oils, omega and shea butter deliver a burst of hydration but what I love most is the sheer texture that absorbs fast. A staple if you want to streamline your bodycare routine.

ACV Hair Rinse, £32 | dpHUE
If your hair is limp, dull or in need of a boost, it’s worth trying a cider vinegar rinse. This one from dpHUE is my new go-to. Using apple cider vinegar, it breaks down dirt and unnecessary product build-up on the scalp – the key is to leave it on for at least five minutes, so it has time to get to work. It never dries the hair out or strips it, as natural oils like argan and aloe vera protect colour and soothe brittle strands. My only bugbear is the nozzle which is hard to navigate – instead of applying it directly to the scalp as the brand recommend, I find pouring it into the hands first then massaging into the scalp works best.

Synchro Skin Self-Refreshing Tint, £35 | Shiseido
I’ve gone through several of these in the past – it’s a make-up bag staple for those wanting light, breathable coverage. The thin, fluid texture skims skin and provides just the right amount of colour to conceal issues like dark circles, spots and dullness – you get just a hint of your natural skin underneath which I love to see. It goes the distance too – using a specific technology that’s resistant to heat and humidity, expect it to last a day without sliding around, while ingredients like glycerine keep skin hydrated all day long. Despite its longevity, it’s not super matte, instead the finish makes skin look quenched and plumped.
