Hydrate and Refresh Your Skin

The UK’s fluctuating weather can often leave skin feeling dull and dry, but you can combat this by revitalising your face with a hydrating serum or refreshing facial mist. 

Ingredients to look out for are hyaluronic acid and vitamin C as they help retain moisture and boost brightness. Keep a facial mist handy for an on-the-go pick-me-up. Quick spritzes throughout the daycan help keep your skin looking fresh. 

Boost Your Hair Volume

If you’re struggling with fine hair or just want to add a bit more body, several products can help. 

Of course, a weekly bouncy blow-dry looks great, but an at-home treatment is much more achievablefor most. Hair thickeners for men and women have become increasingly popular, with just a few sprays providing a quick solution to limp hair. 

Focus volumising products on damp roots to create an instant lift. Style as usual, and you’ll see a significant difference in fullness and bounce. 

Brighten Your Eyes

Many struggle with the appearance of dark circles and puffiness caused by stress and a lack of sleep. To tackle this common concern, try under-eye patches or a cooling eye gel to brighten the under-eye area. 

You can also achieve a more awake and youthful look with cooling rollers, which have similar benefits to a lymphatic massage. Pop them in the fridge overnight, and gently roll under them your eyes in the morning to settle puffiness. For an extra boost, apply nude or white eyeliner to your waterline. 

Define Your Brows

Your eyebrows frame your face, and maintaining their shape and colour can make a significant difference. Not all of us are blessed with naturally full brows, so using a pencil or gel product can enhance their appearance.

Brush your eyebrows upwards to find the natural shape, then fill in any sparse gaps with light, feathery strokes. To ensure they last all day, set them in place with a clear or tinted brow gel. This simple step creates a more structured and refined look. 

Instant Lip and Cheek Tint

A flush of colour brightens your face instantly. Multi-purpose lip and cheek tints have been around for quite some time. But their popularity has risen in recent years with the ‘no-makeup makeup’ look trending across all social media, encouraging many brands to perfect their own tints. 

Dab a small amount on the apples of your cheeks and blend with your fingers for a healthy, radiant glow. Apply the same tint to your lips for an effortlessly glam look. This is a quick and easy way to add warmth and vitality to your appearance.
