Best collagen powders to buy in 2025 and the benefits explained by experts
This is a newer addition to Beauty Pie burgeoning line of supplements. The skincare-makeup membership label is known for bringing accessibly-priced products to the masses and when you subscribe for £59 for a year or £10 a month, this dietary add-on is just £32 - so makes it worthwhile.
This Chollagen follows the hugely popular Collagen Super Powder by placing hydrolysed marine collagen at its heart. But, for those who struggle with the unusual fishy taste that this ingredient may impart, you're in for a treat. It is combined with raw cacao powder, which is not only rich in antioxidants but puts a chocolatey twist on the daily consumption process. It makes it fun to slip into milk, coffee or mix into water - and there's the bonus of vitamin C and biotin too so you're looking after your skin, hair and nails. Follow suit in one of the fans of the product and pop it into your Hotel Chocolat The Velvetiser or add to your afternoon brew to satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling sickly.

I'm a beauty editor - this affordable skincare brand is the secret to your best skin ever
As a skincare-obsessed journalist, I'm often asked what beauty brands are worth the hype, and it's a difficult question to answer. The truth is I don't play favourites – right now, I've got both the £12 Oat Cleansing Balm from The Inkey List and the £86 Brightening Serum from Tatcha in my rotation. That said, if I could only use one beauty brand for the rest of my life, I'd probably choose Beauty Pie. Recognised by industry insiders for its members-only model, the brand cuts out the middlemen and retailer markups so it can offer really good products in high-quality but minimalist packaging at factory prices. Members pay an annual fee of either £29 or £59 and get access to so-called 'members' prices'. For example, a moisturiser that you'd typically pay £100 for from a high-end brand, only costs £34 for members at Beauty Pie. If you're not a member, you can still buy products but at a more premium price, so it's worth checking out the website. Below, I've listed some of my all-time favourite Beauty Pie products. The best products from Beauty Pie £30 Shop Super Healthy Skin Featherlight UVA/UVB SPF 50 Sunscreen + Primer £25 Shop No skincare routine is complete without sunscreen (ideally with an SPF 50+). This one is non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores, offers broad-spectrum protection, and doesn't feel claggy or heavy on the skin. Japanfusion Pure Transforming Cleanser £17 Shop An effective evening cleanse, this gel-to-oil-to-milk formula removes dirt, pollution and makeup without stripping the skin, and leaves it feeling clean and fresh. Double-Sided Organic Cleansing & Exfoliating Cloths £13 Shop Are you still using a traditional washcloth to remove your cleanser? Because these double-sided cloths (cotton and microfibre) are softer and gentler on the skin. Super Retinol + Vitamin C Night Renewal Moisturizer (1% Retinol Complex) £40 Shop Formulated with 1% encapsulated retinol to help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation, this is a great night-time moisturiser for those who have sensitive skin or are new to retinol. Awesome Bronze Gradual Self-Tanning Drops £21 Shop I'm not a big self-tan fan, but even my pale skin needs a little boost every now and then. I just mix a couple of these gradual self-tanning drops in with my moisturiser and night, and wake up with a natural glow. Superluminous Under-Eye Genius £24 Shop More of an under-eye brightener than a concealer, although you might find it covers up your dark circles, I like to pat it in with my ring fingertip. Wrap Star Tubing Mascara £17 Shop Le Smash Santal Eau De Parfum £60 Shop Reminiscent of Le Labo's bestselling Santal 33 (but not a dupe), it's a sexy scent with notes of creamy sandalwood, tonka bean, lavender and tea leaves that will earn you compliments. The Perfectly Puffy Silver Beauty Bag £40 Shop

Here's why I wouldn't recommend Beauty Pie's new LED face mask
If you like affordable, effective skincare (who doesn't?) then I have no doubt Beauty Pie is on your radar. For those not familiar with the retailer, Beauty Pie launched in 2016 with a goal of providing access to high-quality cosmetics without inflated prices. The platform offers its members everything from moisturisers to shower gels, all made by the same manufacturers as many luxury brands you know and love but at a lower price point by cutting out retail markups. As of 2023, the brand extended its UK product roster and jumped aboard the beauty tech bandwagon with the release of a C-wave LED face mask (from £120, Naturally, with competitor brands like Currentbody and Omnilux charging customers in excess of £300, skincare buffs across the nation flocked to get ahold of the seriously discounted device. In fact, one of the early stock releases sold out in less than two hours. Nearly two years on, the mask is back in stock and now – as a result of some regulation changes – it complies with both UK and US standards. The question is, is it really as good as the leading brands? Beauty Pie declared to users on Instagram that it's 'the exact same quality and irradiance level as the $300+ market-leading LED mask'. But, as someone who loves the Currentbody mask (my guess for the market-leading competitor), I wanted to see how Beauty Pie's alternative compared in practice. Keep reading for my honest review. How I tested Applying the mask to either freshly cleansed or moisturised (without SPF) skin, I used the Beauty Pie device over the course of four weeks. The general advice is that users should test for a minimum of four weeks, with consistent use (around three to five times a week) to see the best results. I used the mask daily and, based on my experience with the Currentbody mask and the Silk'n dual LED mask, hoped to see a positive change in my skin's texture, plumpness and fine lines. For context, I have oily, shine-prone skin and suffer with hormonal breakouts. In terms of fine lines, I'm 27 years old and haven't shown any major signs of ageing (yet!) but have noticed small developments in the crows feet, laughter lines and 'elevens' between my eyebrows. After daily treatments over an extended period with both the Currentbody and Silk'n masks, I saw a reduction in breakouts and blackheads, boosted skin elasticity and a smoother, less translucent complexion. So, let's see how Beauty Pie's iteration compared below. Why you can trust us As a beauty writer with more than five years of experience speaking to aestheticians and dermatologists, I've garnered quite the bit of know-how in the field of skin tech. What's more, I'm currently in the process of reviewing a total 15 LED light masks for The Independent 's wider product review. I've been testing the masks in excess of 16 weeks and am familiar with the designs, technology and skin results that a good LED mask will present.
