Amazon users praise 'holy grail' £14 rosemary oil that makes hair 'grow like crazy'
Beauty fans can't stop raving over the results that has left their locks "noticeable stronger and healthier." By now we've all heard about the benefits of using rosemary oil in our hair routine. From new growth to scalp protection, it's said to offer many benefits. With so many different bottles available to buy these days, it can be difficult to find one worth spending money on. Fortunately, Amazon shoppers have found one they say makes hair "grow like crazy." It's the Artnaturals Organic Rosemary Castor Hair Oil and Scalp Massager Kit. Boasting an incredible 4.5 rating overall, it will only set beauty enthusiasts back just £14.67. The particular kit is said to provide a "holistic approach" to hair and scalp care, with the "lightweight" blend of four different oils to create an elixir that doesn't just promote hair growth, but healthier-looking strands overall. It's main ingredient is, of course, rosemary oil for hair growth and scalp care, while castor oil helps to strengthen and moisturize. Meanwhile, olive oil offers nourishment and softness, while coconut oil offers hydration and conditioning. With all four combined in just one 118ml bottle, reviews have suggested that it is a "game changer" for dry, damaged hair, with some saying their tresses have "never looked so alive." The kit also comes complete with a scalp massager to boost blood circulation to the scalp, further supporting new growth, alongside gently cleansing and exfoliating the scalp, while also boosting a sense of wellbeing. Meanwhile, over at Lookfantastic, shoppers can get this Grow Gorgeous Healthy Scalp Duo, that offers a two-month treatment, for £39, down from £57, offering a 30 per cent discount. And Superdrug is offering a great value bundle with this Nature Spell Growth Complex Hair Growth Set that costs £29.99, and it comes complete with a shampoo, conditioner, mask, leave-in conditioner and hair oil. However, beauty buffs who have purchased the Artnaturals kit have branded it as a "holy grail" product, as it has "saved" dry, damaged hair in need of some TLC. One shopper who branded the oil a "miracle" praised: "I've been using this hair oil for a few weeks now, and I'm already seeing amazing results! "My hair feels noticeably stronger and healthier, and I'm starting to see new growth around my hairline. The oil is lightweight and doesn't leave any greasy residue, so it's easy to apply daily. "I also love that it doesn't have a strong scent, making it perfect for layering with other products. Highly recommend this if you're looking to strengthen your hair and promote growth!" A second five-star review read: "I love it sooo much. It is my holy grail, it saved my damaged hair and made it start growing like crazy. If u want hair repair I highly recommend this hair oil, it will save your hair in many many ways." It may be worth noting that the consistency of the oil might not be suitable for everyone, as one three-star review read: "Very greasy on the scalp and hair. Difficult to wash off." Beauty deal of the week YSL Black Opium remains an iconic perfume - and we know where to bag the newest edition for its cheapest price. The YSL BLack Opium Le Parfum offers a more vanilla-heavy fragrance that has been hailed as "intoxicating" in reviews, with a 50ml now half-price at Boots after being dropped from £115 to £57.50. Massive saving aside, it's the cheapest it can be bought for at the moment, as rival retailers Superdrug, Lookfantastic and The Perfume Shop still stock it at full-price. This interpretation of the iconic perfume was only launched in 2022, with its original floral gourmand fragrance still offering its famed notes that include pear accord, green mandarin, orange flower petals, jasmine sambac and cinnamon. However, the iconic coffee accord has been twisted with four different, yet still complimentary, notes of vanilla, which is said to be its most important ingredient, to create an "unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity." Meanwhile, the unique glossy bottle that has been crafted from a precious black stone, with its dazzling glitter emblem at the heart, eludes to the luxuriousness of the fragrance contained within. As for the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Boots shoppers wanting to take advantage of the half-price discount will be glad to hear it has amassed a 4.7 rating from thousands of customers who say it "lasts all day" and "literally turns heads" when it is worn. One five-star review read: "I love the fragrance. I used a lot the first time, not realising how intense it was. It lasts all day and continues to smell great. I literally turn heads when I wear it." Don't miss Boots' half-price discount on the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum (50ml) that is now £57.50, down from £115. Comparatively, another five-star review read: "This product is absolutely amazing! I was losing a lot of hair due to stress and I started using this 3x a week (minimum) I would normally leave on overnight and pop a silk bonnet on. Within 2 weeks I could see regrowth! And also leaves your hair feeling amazing once washed out to, not greasy. Highly recommend!" And someone else praising the results said: "Already seeing new growth around my hairline, and had also been helping improve the appearance of my dry, split ends. A little goes a long way with this product, so this bottle should last me ages!" Purchase the Artnaturals Organic Rosemary Castor Hair Oil and Scalp Massager Kit for £14.67 on Amazon.

‘Works like magic' line-smoothing face mask duo that ‘plumps wrinkles overnight'
I first heard about the incredible results of the overnight face mask set a few years ago from a fellow beauty editor – and shoppers also can't get enough of it A couple of key things influence me when thinking about buying beauty products: trusted reviews from friends, family or experts, and impressive before-and-after photos, especially when taken under clinical conditions. And that's exactly what I found with this line-smoothing overnight face mask duo. A former beauty colleague of mine – who certainly knows her skincare – once raved about how much she rated Medik8's H.E.O. Mask Optimal Ratio Moisturisation Two-Step Overnight Mask for the incredible effect it had on her skin in the morning. I've always remembered this, and recently came across it again while browsing the Medik8 website – and was also wowed by some of the customer reviews and before-and-after photos. This deeply hydrating two-step mask set, £60, is designed to be used as the last step in your evening skincare routine, and consists of a gel-textured mask, which you leave on to sink in, and and creamy one, which you then apply afterwards; both should be left on overnight, and a little goes a long way. The result come morning is 72 hours of hydration and moisture retention, plumper looking skin, and a visible reduction in fine lines, crepiness and flakiness. And the hundreds of shopper reviews seem to back this up, with almost all of them five-star ratings. One comment titled 'Works like magic' goes on to read: "Super-moisturising! I am really sad that I didn't find it earlier. You can really see the difference overnight, the skin is smooth and it looks younger as well because it is really moisturised, it gives better results than the night cream, and I am tempted to use it every day though it says that the product should only be used a couple of times a week. Must have for a dry skin with wrinkles!" "It feels luxurious on the skin and even plumps up wrinkles overnight," another fan agreed. "It's like a spa treatment at home!" A third long-time Medik8 fan wrote: "As with all the Medik8 products I've tried, this mask has done wonders for my skin. It plumps up and softens fine lines and wrinkles overnight so that now the experience of looking in the mirror first thing is a much happier one!" If you're looking to add a few more wrinkle-busting Medik8 products to your basket while you're browsing, the new Liquid Peptides Advanced MP serum, £79, has proven to be a huge hit since it launched earlier this year. You can read my full review here. And for masks that temporarily hydrate and cost a little less, you can't beat a sheet mask. These Biodance Bio Collagen-Real Deep Masks, £14.90 for four, are going viral at the moment, while Garnier does a great selection for just a few quid.
