I'm a beauty writer and these are Kiehl's best-selling products
Shoppers who feel their beauty shelf could do with a seasonal refresh, now is a good time to invest in some much-loved products. Cult skincare brand Kiehl's, known for its best-sellers, is a great place to start.
What's more, the retailer is offering three freebies when customers spend over £70. Meanwhile, those who spend more than £80 will get an additional denim pouch. Simply add code: HISTREAT at checkout to get the offer.
Whether beauty fans are loyal to the brand's classics or just keen to try something new, Kiehl's covers everything from hydrating creams to vitamin-packed serums and TikTok-famous cleansers.
Elsewhere, LookFantastic is selling the recently launched Golden Lift Tightening Serum from Lancaster, a brand which Princess Grace Kelly was reportedly a fan of. At £93, the product aims to improve skin elasticity in as little as two weeks, whilst helping reduce wrinkles and pigmentation within a month.
Medik8 just launched its C-Tetra Advanced Vitamin C Gel-Serum with Phyto Exosomes. Costing £69 for 30ml the new release is described as a high-performance, age-defying vitamin C serum by the brand, promising results in just seven days.
For those keen to shop Kiehl's, the Ultra Facial Cream, £37 for 50ml, is certainly worth a go. Designed to deliver up to 72 hours of hydration, this popular facial cream contains 4.5% squalane, glacial glycoprotein and pro-ceramides.
It's said to have a lightweight, non-greasy texture. One happy reviewer said: "I've been using this cream for six or seven months, and I believe it's minimising my fine lines and wrinkles. You don't need a lot to feel the softness melting into your skin."
A second fan added: "My face is smooth and hydrated instantly. I recommend this product if you have dry skin like mine."
Although most reviews are positive, some customers weren't satisfied with their purchase. One said: "An average product, the cream does not absorb well in my skin, and thus not helpful."
Another Kiehl's bestseller is the Midnight Recovery Concentrate, retailing at £50 for 30ml. This beloved anti-ageing formula has been enriched with lipid-rich seed, flower oils and blant botanicals, to visibly reduce fine lines, refines skin texture and boost radiance in one sleep.
More than 4,340 Kiehl's fans have given the Midnight Recovery oil a five-star rating. One 52-year-old skincare buff said in a review: "I've used the Midnight Recovery Oil pretty regularly for years and notice a difference when I use it consistently. Skin looks more youthful and fine lines don't seem as noticeable."
Yet, not all shoppers were impressed, with one writing: "Don't really get what all the fuss is about. Okay product, doesn't really do anything noticeable to my skin"
Customers wanting to pay less than full price can head over to Kiehl's 40% off selection, which includes some of the brand's most iconic formulas. Here shoppers can find incredible deals on best-selling products and curated gift sets, making it a brilliant opportunity to grab a thoughtful present for a skincare-obsessed friend.

Medik8 cream users say 'irons out lines' hailed 'best moisturiser ever tried'
The Medik8 Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream is a bestseller for the brand and is perfect for adding to any summer skincare routine Medik8 stands as one of the market's top skincare brands, accommodating every skin type and requirement. Among its top-selling products is the Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream, making it an ideal addition to a summer skincare regimen. Priced at £48, this intensely moisturising formula provides hydration for up to 100 hours whilst maintaining a lightweight feel. Shoppers can purchase it from Space NK and Cult Beauty as well. The cream works both morning and evening, delivering a replenished, supple and radiant complexion, reports Essex Live. It also supports the skin barrier and microbiome, which are essential components of healthy skin. For amplified results, pair it with the £59 C-Tetra Luxe from Medik8. Yoga app for over 35s that helps with 'weight loss and heart health' is 61% off Sabrina Carpenter's go-to blush that 'blends out beautifully' and 'lasts all day' The moisturiser boasts a 4.9 rating from 1,594 reviews. One delighted customer shared: "My skin has been transformed, it really works on the deeper layers. My skin looks and feels softer, more supple and so plump." Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream Product Description A third reviewer noted: "I can confidently say it's one of the best moisturisers I've ever tried, the texture is rich yet lightweight, absorbing beautifully into the skin without feeling greasy or heavy. It provides intense hydration while leaving my skin feeling soft, smooth, and perfectly balanced." There has been very minimal criticism of the product, but some were left unimpressed by the results: "A few days after of use day and night I didn't feel my skin more hydrated and actually felt the product wasn't really absorbing and was rather just sitting on top of it. It is also quite sticky in my opinion." As an alternative, you might consider the Clinique Moisture Surge 100H Auto-Replenishing Hydrator, available for £42 at Boots. Packed with a combination of vitamins C and E, it works to combat daily moisture-sapping elements. The product enjoys a 4.7 rating from 789 reviews.

Currently £19.60 at LookFantastic, it promises to deliver up to 100 hours of skin-quenching hydration whilst visibly plumping, smoothing and brightening. More than 120 reviewers have awarded it an average rating of 4.6: "It has a rich creamy texture but is absorbed really quickly when applied so does not leave your skin feeling sticky. It irons out the fine lines around my eyes and leaves my face feeling constantly hydrated." Shoppers can get the £48 Medik8 Total Moisture Daily Facial Cream from Medik8, Space NK or Cult Beauty.

I was turned away by three Spanish hospitals 'because I'm British'
A British holidaymaker revealed her 'holiday from hell' after being turned away from three hospitals in Spain whilst suffering from an extreme bout of travellers diarrhoea. Kay, who regularly shares her globe-trotting adventures as a 'military wife' on TikTok, took to the platform earlier this month to recount her nightmare experience. In a series of clips posted to her account @kayholsav, the traveller described how she was largely confined to her room at the Marylanza hotel in Tenerife after developing an upset stomach from eating a salad she claimed was 'washed with tap water.' Traveller's diarrhoea, often referred to as 'holiday tummy,' is a common ailment for holidaymakers staying in areas with poor sanitation and hygiene. It is often caused by consuming contaminated food or tap water that may contain harmful bacteria, viruses, or parasites. In one video, she laid bare the grim details of her illness, admitting she'd 'rather be dragged through a bush backwards' than have to endure a similar experience. She said: 'I arrived on the Friday, had dinner at the hotel, and from then on I cannot physically keep anything in my system. We are now on Sunday, and I still physically cannot keep anything in my system.' The content creator reiterated that she follows a vegetarian diet and had only consumed fresh vegetables and pizza at the four-star TUI resort, and had also avoided the tap water. The content creator (pictured at a private hospital in Tenerife) reiterated that she follows a vegetarian diet and had only consumed fresh vegetables and pizza at the four-star TUI resort, and had also avoided the tap water Kay added that her symptoms were so extreme that a doctor had to be called out to her hotel room, which had cost her €100. She vented her frustration as she explained the doctor had warned that she was approximately two days away from being admitted into hospital. However, in a follow-up clip, she later claims she was turned away from three local hospitals on the popular island because she was an English tourist. In an accompanying comment, she says: 'The issue wasn't just the language barrier they were incredibly dismissive and honestly came across as quite racist. It felt like they just didn't want to help. 'That's exactly why we always get private travel insurance now private clinics actually treat you with respect and cater to all nationalities, not just locals. Luckily I ended up at the right hospital.' After admitting herself to a private facility, she shared in another video the treatments she'd received, such as an IV drip, fluids, antibiotics. Though she admitted her ordeal was the 'scariest experience of her life,' Kay went on to make a full recovery, and expressed her gratitude for the 'amazing' staff at the hospital. She said: 'Bless them - they didn't understand me, nor did I them, but they did their best. In a follow-up clip , she later claimed she was turned away from three local hospitals on the popular island because she was an English tourist 'I had severe dehydration and I had a bad stomach infection. They sent me home with antibiotics, probiotics and other stuff for my stomach.' Dozens of viewers flocked to Kay's page to share similar experiences of food poisoning in Spain and abroad. One person declared: 'I never ever ever will eat salad abroad for this you think they wash it in bottle water??' Another said: 'This happened to me in Benidorm!! I went for 10 days and was sick for 7 days, couldn't leave my room and couldn't get off the toilet. I feel so sorry for you girl, it's hell.' A third wrote: 'This happened me this year in Majorca, be careful, I'd bacterial stomach infection on return contaminated water (which I didn't drink) sometimes can b from the icecubes in drinks.' Regarding her negative experience with local hospitals, one person said: 'Everyone gets treated like this at public hospitals even Spanish residents, unfortunately doctors are pretty miserable in state hospitals due to long work hours and mediocre salaries.' Another wrote: 'The Insurance company usually has a list of hospitals they will accept. They want you to use the GHIC card and go to a public hospital. I had to do this in Mainland Spain this June.' The Daily Mail has reached out to TUI and the Marylanza Hotel for further comment. Dozens of viewers flocked to Kay's page to share similar experiences of food poisoning in Spain and abroad It comes after a flight attendant revealed the flight from Edinburgh to Alicante has the worst passengers. The staff shared a harrowing story of an altercation that took place at 30,000 feet – declaring it the most traumatic flight of her career. It involved three groups on stag dos – outnumbering the four members of cabin crew. 'It was just absolute chaos, they were screaming,' 32-year-old Kristina Galvydyte told The Telegraph. 'Imagine a night out in any British town at midnight on a Friday. It was like that.'

'Underwear I bought from TikTok melted into my skin leaving second degree burns'
Molly-May Watson had to rip the TikTok shop underwear off her body when it burned onto her skin. Despite being rushed to hospital she was only given £10 in compensation A woman has been left with second degree burns after shapewear she purchased on TikTok shop "melted" into her skin. Molly-May Watson, 27, bought the £8.57 "Spanx-like" shorts in May 2024 through a seller called MOONGIRL-UK on the social media app. She wore them for the first time under a dress while attending a baby shower, for her sister on July 27, 2024 and thought a bee had flown into her dress after she 'felt this burning' on her upper right thigh. Rushing to the bathroom to see what had happened, Molly-May was forced to rip her shorts off after she says the elastane stretchy material had "melted" into her skin. She attended A&E at St Thomas' Hospital, London, the following day where she was told she could be "scarred for life". After complaining to TikTok Shop through the help function on the app, she says she was given just a £10 coupon as compensation. Molly-May, an executive assistant, from Kennington, south London, said: "I felt this burning on my upper bum cheek and side of my leg. She said: "For some reason I thought a bee had got into my dress. I went to the toilet to see what the hell was going on. The shorts had melted into my leg. "So I've had to rip them off and I've been left with first and second degree burns. I'm unable to walk properly at the moment. The hospital where I went said I could be scarred for life at this point." Molly-May had only worn the shorts once before briefly, to try them on and make sure they fit, before her sister's baby shower. After taking them off and getting through the rest of the event in pain Molly-May attended hospital the following day to get checked over. "I thought 'I'll just leave it' but it was agonising and had gotten worse," she said. I had to go to A&E on the Monday and had to be treated in the urgent treatment centre for burns. "I've been bandaged up ever since. They confirmed it's definitely a burn and that's what happened. They said 'it's strange, we don't really know if it's a heat burn or a chemical reaction'." Molly-May added: "I now can't find the seller on Google - which makes me think it wasn't legit in the first place. I sent TikTok Shop a message with pics of all the burns and the melted shorts and said 'this is what happened'. I spoke to an agent and said they'd need to pass it on to a specialist team. I sent another chaser message. 'They came back to me and said, 'We can refund you and give you a £10 coupon.' I said 'I don't feel comfortable accepting a coupon from you to be honest'. I'll never be shopping from that shop again. It's insulting. They said, 'Unfortunately nothing we can do'.! "When I've been talking to friends and people at work and stuff, they've told me they've bought similar things and said 'we felt really irritated'. It's just made me overly aware now. You think 'that's a nice little bargain' but it could leave you like me scarred for life. 'Any sort of budget or third party sellers I won't ever order from them again. I'm starting to scar already from some bits of the burn'. Molly-May has had to work from home whilst she recovers, and has been advised to attend the doctors if she sees any changes. TikTok confirmed the listing and seller page was removed from the platform in June last year. A spokesperson said TikTok has already responded and given compensation to the buyer after the complaint.
