If summer has your skin feeling dry and dehydrated, this set of ten hyaluronic acid vials could be your saviour. Used as part of a ten day course, the powerfully hydrating serum will help to quench your skin’s thirst and boost moisture levels.

Everyone can benefit from taking a vitamin C supplement – the ingredient famously helps to boost your immune system, improve energy levels, and support healthy skin. This particular blend contains 1000mg of pure vitamin C – the equivalent of 15 oranges.

Blush is big news for summer 2023 and there’s nothing we love more than a cream blush formula – they’re easy to apply, blend beautifully, and give skin a healthy, natural-looking flush. These wands contain a powerfully pigmented formula, so a little goes a long way and the tube will last you for months.

A soft, creamy lip liner should be an essential in every makeup bag. This formula is particularly impressive because it’s waterproof and stays put for hours.

The Beauty Crop is one of our favourite Tik-Tok famous brands, so you can pretty much guarantee that this product will go viral. A sheer but buildable liquid bronzer, this is perfect both for adding warmth to skin and sculpting the contours of the face.

So far 2023 has been a great year for sunscreens – gone are the days when SPFs were thick, chalky, greasy, and clogged pores or left a white cast on skin. This new sunscreen launch from e.l.f. melts into skin and doesn’t leave a hint of residue. Thanks to glycerin and meadowfoam seed oil, it keeps skin hydrated and glowy, as well as protected.

Right on time for all your festival eye makeup looks, this selection of water-activated eyeliners is a must-have for your on-the-go makeup bag.

As pigmented as a lipstick but as hydrating as a lip balm, this lip cream combines the benefits of both. Lips are left nourished and plump, with a soft matte finish.

Adding a microfibre hair towel to your routine is a seriously gamechanging move. Not only will your hair dry faster, but it will dry without damage, frizz, and flyaways.

Bold, bright eye makeup is what About Face do best and their latest creamy eyeshadow formula is majorly impressive. Expect powerful pigment and a shimmery, pearlescent finish.

If you’re considering dyeing your hair, this clarifying shampoo is the perfect way to prep. It helps to exfoliate the scalp and remove residue, buildup, and oil, creating a clean canvas so that colour applies evenly.

Drawing upon the calming properties of lavender, chamomile, and orange, this travel-sized destressing oil is perfect for keeping in your bag for moments of calm on the go.

When we first heard that one of our favourite MUAs, Katie Jane Hughes, was collabing with Spectrum on a face and eye brush set we knew the brushes would be an instant sell-out. Fortunately, the brushes are now available individually so you can pick and choose to fill in the gaps in your collection.

Foreo made a name for itself as a go-to brand for beauty tech – cleansing brushes, microcurrent devices, and IPL hair removal are just a few of the gadgets they offer – so we know that their new skincare collection is going to be impressive. This rich jelly mask is perfect for soothing and moisturising stressed skin.

Inspired by golden hour, this highlighter adds warmth and radiance to skin – basically acting as blusher, bronzer, and highlighter in one to give skin a sunkissed finish.
