Meghan Markle-loved make-up brand drops ‘game-changer' concealer that reduces crow's feet
Back when Meghan Markle's personal Instagram account was first revamped, earlier this year, the Duchess listed some of her favourite beauty buys – and we all quickly took notes. One of them was RMS Beauty Luminizer, a subtle cream highlighter that's a bestseller and popular with celebrities – and now the brand has dropped a new product that we bet might also get the royal seal of approval.
RMS Beauty has just launched its Revitalize Hydra Concealer, £34, at Space NK and Cult Beauty, a creamy, medium coverage liquid cover-up that's packed with skincare ingredients – and some impressive claims and early customer reviews to boot.
Available in 26 shades, RMS's Revitalize Hydra Concealer contains ingredients such as eyebright, a 'Revital-Eyes complex' and Tightenyl, a plant-based retinol alternative. The result, RMS says, is nourished, smoother-looking skin over time as well as dark circles instantly covered, with the brand reporting that testers reported a visible reduction in the appearance of fine lines and crow's feet after using this for 30 days.
It's the customer reviews on the US RMS website, however, that are even more impressive, with plenty of shoppers with what you could call mature skin praising how lovely it is it use:
"At 53, I want a concealer that works with my skin – not against it. This clean beauty gem hits all the right notes: great coverage, a perfect skin match (thanks to the RMS team), and it stays put all day," one user wrote. "I always prep and moisturize my skin first (non-negotiable at this age!), and this concealer layers beautifully over it – no pilling, no weird texture. And it plays so well with other make-up."
" Revitalize Hydra Concealer was a game changer," another review reads. "It applies flawlessly and stays on all day. I am 63, and actually makes the skin look younger. It gives a glow without being shiny. Feels like more than a concealer – feels like treatment. This is a product I will not be without. The applicator was so thoughtfully designed, with pinpoint accuracy and just the perfect amount of product distributed."
Our beauty editor Laura has also tried this, and says, "This really is a very creamy formula – it doesn't look or feel cakey at all under the eyes – and the little brush applicator is so much better than traditional doe-foot ones. The colours are perfect, too. Apart from a tiny bit of settling in fine lines at the end of the day, it's pretty much foolproof."
This is backed up by one three-star review on the RMS website that reads: "It goes on nicely and has good coverage, but it absolutely does crease, they all do. I feel like it made my fine lines look like big wrinkles by midday," suggesting that it's nearly impossible to find a concealer that is hydrating yet doesn't crease at all (you normally have to pick one or the other).
If hydrating if the main thing you're looking for from your concealer then you might also like Fenty Beauty We'Re Even Hydrating Longwear Concealer, £25, whereas if it's full coverage and longevity you're after, not much beats Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Concealer (try the travel-size tube for £19 first).

'Taking husband's surname has left me the butt of jokes but I wouldn't change it'
Laura Wood from Stockport was unsure about whether or not she wanted to take her now-husband's Danny's surname when they got married after her friends had mocked her possible name for years A bride has gone viral and left people cracking up after taking her husband's unusual surname, which has left some people asking if it's actually real. Laura Wood tied the knot with her husband in July 2025, after 14 years together. The couple first met at university in Preston and have been inseparable ever since. Like many future brides, Laura was left facing a decision that she had to make ahead of their big day. The topic of whether or not to take her husband 's had left Laura the butt of jokes among friends for years as Danny's surname meant she'd become Mrs Laura Large. For the years while Laura was dating Danny, her friends had joked for years about double-barrelled alternatives such as 'Large-Wood' or 'Wood-Large'. At the time, Laura was working a 9-to-5 graphic design job and worried that signing off emails as 'Laura Large' might not be taken seriously. Now self-employed as a nail technician and living in Stockport, the 32-year-old rarely uses her full name. When the day came to make a decision, she saw no reason not to embrace her new and unique name. 'I used to find the idea of taking his name quite funny,' Laura told What's The Jam. 'It felt surreal because us getting married was a way off, so it just felt like a joke."'I'm only 4ft 11in, which makes the Large name funnier," she added. She went on to say: "When we did get married, I wasn't sure if I was going to change it on social media, but I thought, sod it, I'll do it for the plot." The couple got engaged in 2021 on their 10-year anniversary during a staycation in Bath. On the big day on 4 July, the pair celebrated their ceremony at Stockport Town Hall before hiring a big red vintage bus to take 70 guests to Manchester city Laura later posted a video on TikTok revealing her new surname, the clip went viral – with 34,000 people reacting to it. Among the 1,400 comments were some people who said it reminded them of The Large Family, a popular children's book series by Jill Murphy featuring a family of elephants. And the commenters weren't the only ones who had made the connection as Laura's sister gifted her the books on the morning of her wedding. While it's becoming more popular for husbands to take their wives' names after getting married, Laura explained that this hadn't really been something they'd wanted to do. She said: "When we were looking at all the options, Danny said he really likes his surname. And he's the only boy in his family, so he wanted to carry the name on. I also knew we wanted to have the same name for our kids." Although she admits 'Laura Large' still doesn't feel just right yet, the name is growing on who recently launched the podcast, Nails and Yap, said: 'I'm quite headstrong, and if I didn't want the name, I wouldn't have taken it. I haven't felt any pressure to do it. "It feels nice having the same name – it's like having a connection and makes us feel closer."

For the outing, Jodie looked effortlessly chic in a structured aqua blue blazer adorned with gold buttons. She teamed the stylish blazer with a classic black top and light blue slim-fit denim jeans.

He completed his look with a pair of white Nike trainers as he beamed alongside his mum. Beauty retailer Space NK opened its huge new West End flagship store on Oxford Street on Thursday, in the space once occupied by Philip Green's store. The 4,600 sq ft superstore at 214 Oxford Circus is the company's biggest outlet yet. The store, set on one floor, will feature Space NK's new 'beauty experience concept' and stock its entire range of luxury beauty and skincare brands. Space NK previously promised the London flagship would allow customers 'to explore the very best that beauty has to offer.' Chief Executive Andy Lightfoot told Cosmetics Business earlier this year: 'With our active customer base now reaching two million and our growth continually outperforming the market at over 30%, 'We saw that now was the time to answer our customers' demand for a true flagship in the West End. 'Oxford Street is one of the preeminent shopping destinations in the world, and 214 Oxford Circus in particular is an iconic store. An iconic location for our new central London flagship store. He added: 'The mission with our flagship to push boundaries once again on what can be achieved with an instore shopping experience – and another page in the story of Space NK, as well celebrate 30 years a leading British beauty retailer.' Space NK was founded in 1991 by entrepreneur Nicky Kinnaird, whose initials gave the company its name, with its first store opening in Covent Garden in 1993. It is now owned by investor Manzanita Capital. In May last year, Sky News reported the chain was exploring a sale and had appointed investment bankers to manage the process, valuing it between $374 million and $500 million.

Cult favourite setting spray sparks backlash as it quietly changes it's formula
Beauty fans were less than impressed when they learned that cult-favourite setting spray by Urban Decay was quietly reformulated - and the beauty breakup appears to be riddled with drama There's no doubt about it, the Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray reached cult status not long after it's launch. For the past 15 years, the setting spray - which rivals against Charlotte Tilbury's viral Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray and Elf's Power Grip Dewy Setting Spray - has kept its promise in keeping your makeup waterproof, smudge-proof, fadeproof, crackproof and transfer-resistant. As a long-time fan of the product (I've cycled through about three bottles of this stuff) I can confidently say it's one of the best on the market. But fans like me were left in shock after the announcement that the setting spray had been reformulated. The news came from Skindinavia, a brand many had never even heard of before. In an Instagram statement, they revealed that they had 'proudly made the All Nighter Setting Spray since 2010… but sadly, Urban Decay and its parent company L'Oréal have chosen to end their partnership with Skindinavia.' It comes as Meghan Markle's 'incredible' £26 skin-glowing collagen cream is on sale for £17. According to Allue, Skindinavia's founder and president, Allen Goldman, developed the formula and obtained the patent for it back in the mid-2000s, intent of selling it through his brand, but the product struggled to take off. He explained that he built a rapport with Urban Decay through networking events and agreed to license the formula to the brand, which soon resulted in All Nighter in 2010 and was met with massive success. The Mirror reached out to Skindinavia and Urban Decay for comment. A spokesperson for Urban Decay said: "We've kept everything our community loved about the original but made it even better. The product has an upgraded up to 24-hour wear, a fresh new scent and three different finishes. It's about improved performance, now with extra perks. We're excited to share this next chapter with our fans and can't wait for them to experience the future of makeup setting sprays."

Goldman told The Mirror that he wanted to ensure the customer is "always treated with respect" explaining that they "deserve to know they are what they paid for." He added that, from the situation, he's learned that "integrity, kindness and loyalty matters." Following what has been deemed the biggest beauty breakup of 2025, fans of the All Nighter setting spray have been left in disarray. One wrote: "Daaaaaaamn, RIP All Nighter: A True Legend. A Bonafide Icon. Probably my longest make-up relationship," while another added: "No!!! I was just talking about this yesterday how it just doesn't do it anymore. Something changed with it after Covid times.". Some have pledged allegiance to the original formula, sharing that they've pivoted to Skindinavia to keep up with the original product. Skindinavia are a US-based brand that specialise in micro-fine sprays geared for long-wear makeup. "The only setting spray that has seen me through EVERY SINGLE dance job in every climate. Last summer was dancing for Ricky Martin in Europe in 100 degree heat and that MAKEUP STAYED IN PLACE BBY. I'm going where this product is going lol," one commenter posted on Instagram. "Your bridal spray got me through my wedding in a peak Indian summer with 89% humidity. I will never leave you," a second added. If you're planning to stick with Urban Decay, good for you. But if the news has turned your head, you can buy the Skindinavia Bridal Makeup Finishing Spray here or shop four alternatives that could prove to be just as good for a fraction of the price. NYX The Face Glue Setting Spray, £8.99 The NYX The Face Glue Setting Spray has obscure reviews on TikTok for its insane hold that keeps your makeup locked in place without leaving a sticky film. It's transfer resistant and waterproof, and is made with film formers and Maple Syrup, which are known for their gripping properties. VIEVE Invisiveil Setting Spray, £28 Vieve is a woman-owned brand you should get to know, especially since their Invisiveil Setting Spray Setting Spray has over 660 five star reviews. Dubbed the spray that actually works, VIEVE's setting spray locks makeup in place for up to 16 hours, offers a true-to-finish formula, is hydrating and transfer-proof. Milani Make It Last Setting Spray, £14.50 Milani's Make It Last Setting Spray is a two-in-one and works as a primer and a setting spray, lending it's powers to prepping your skin before applying makeup and keeping it locked in place for up to 24 hours after. It's long-wearing, provides a natural finish and reduces the appearance of imperfections with a couple of spritzes. ONE/SIZE On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray, £32 Patrick Starrr's ONE/SIZE On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray is already a viral favourite online and it's no surprise why. The aerosol spray is lightweight, non-sticky and sets your makeup with next-level hold for up to 16 hours.
