As well as feeling instantly cooling and soothing, the Hydrating After Sun has longer benefits too. It cleverly helps to maximise the bronzing effects of a day spent in the sun thanks to the natural tan accelerator Inositol. This is derived from the fruits of the Carob tree and has been shown to accelerate the tanning process and reduce tan fade by over 50 per cent.
I tried the new Hydrating After Sun formula for myself after a particularly hot week and can confirm it feels incredibly refreshing and cooling on the skin, so much so that this will become a firm staple on any trips this summer.
The peppermint scent is uplifting while the non-sticky formula leaves your skin feeling super soft, smooth and nourished - exactly what I needed after a very hot day spent in the sun.
While it feels instantly glorious on the skin thanks to the soothing combination of Lavender, Chamomile and Myrrh, these wonder ingredients also further encourage post-sun skin repair in the longer term too.
And as for the tan accelerator, this is obviously a huge plus for keeping hold of any colour I get this summer - great for keeping the post-holiday glow for longer.

The six biggest make-up mistakes that are making women over 50 look older, according to top beauty experts

Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - learn more I have a big birthday looming – no, not that one, not quite yet - but the one that nudges me into my 50th year. And, somehow, this feels significant. Perhaps it's not that surprising - the Chinese Medicine practitioner Katie Brindle told me that, for women, the landmark birthday is not 50, but 49, because according to TCM we move through life in seven year cycles – and the start of the eighth marks the beginning of our 'second spring'. I'm not sure I'm quite ready for that yet, but when I look over pictures from the last year I can definitely see any wisdom I may have accumulated thus far in life showing up far more than it ever did before. I've never had Botox, fillers and the rest and I haven't yet decided if I will, but like most of us, I wouldn't mind slowing the progress of time on my face. And I know that make-up can work magic – if it's done well. So, I decided to ask the experts about the most ageing make-up mistakes they see women making – and their fixes. Read on to learn how to roll back the years with a flick of your mascara wand… NEVER OVER-POWDER Frances Prescott, Make-up artist and founder of Tri Balm and Maeva Rae A common mistake is to over powder. Don't! For a gorgeous dewy finish, use a hybrid product combining make-up and skincare ingredients, like Katherine Daniels Pure Pigment Foundation Drops (£42 / 20ml which has a supple texture that doesn't cake. Or look for tinted moisturisers instead. Pure Pigment Foundation Drops £42 / 20ml Shop GET CLEVER WITH CONCEALER Sascha Jackson, lead make-up artist Stila One of the most common ageing mistakes is using concealer that's too light and applying too much of it. The key is to choose a shade close to your foundation—no more than half a shade lighter. If you're dealing with dark circles, apply a peach-toned corrector first to neutralise purple tones, then follow with a small amount of concealer to brighten. Use a soft, fluffy brush to apply concealer gently—especially under the eyes, where too much product can settle into fine lines. Gabriella Elio, Make-up artist and founder of Sweed Beauty Women who are peri or menopausal, don't need to be afraid of blusher, but they (i)do(i) need to use it differently. Ignore the apples of your cheeks and apply to the top of your cheekbone instead, then blend down. Then put a flick of highlighter on top – you're focusing on lighting up your face at eye level. Blusher, like the Sweed Air Blush Cream (£28, used at the top of your cheeks replicates the fullness of lost fat pads. As we age, we all lose structure and fat – a swirl of blush creates the illusion of fullness, and youth! SOFTEN YOUR GO-TO SHADES Suzy Griffin Dunne, Make-up artist, founder of Hildun Beauty As we age, we need to reconsider not just the placement of make-up but also the textures of the products we are using. Generally, we need more hydration and creamier textures that are going to move with our faces instead of getting stuck in lines. Another important factor to consider when is that the colours we used to wear may be a little harsh, and we might need to soften those shades, perhaps changing our traditional black eyeliner to a brown. We have found this approach very popular with lots of our customers. In fact, we now have three shades in our ultra creamy brown eyeliner with a fourth launching later this year (£16, Award Winning Silk to Set Kajal Liner £16 Shop PLUMP UP LIPS LIKE A PRO Vincent Ford, Global Make-up artist When you apply your lip pencil or lipstick avoid taking the product all the way to the corners of the mouth. This pulls the mouth down and ages you. Instead only apply the lip colour to the centre of the lips and blend outwards, softly diffusing the colour. It will give the appearance of a fuller, more youthful mouth. Easy! OPEN EYES WITH A TOP LASHES TRICK Caroline Barnes, celebrity make-up artist Applying mascara to your top lashes only can really lift your eyes, especially if you use a mascara that dumps a lot of the product at the root of the lash because this creates a lovely invisible line that doesn't weigh the lid down. Try Elf Extender (£6.94, which has a really thin barrel that deposits the mascara very close to the lash, or Sweed mascara (£24, which deposits the mascara right to the roots of your lashes. Obviously you could open out your eyes by having mascara on the top and bottom lashes, but making it a little bit top heavy really does create a beautiful lift. Cosmetic Craving Eyeam Magnesium Butter, £25 for a 60g pot ( This brand is the brainchild of the Organic Pharmacy's Margo and her daughter Roxy, so I had high hopes – and I wasn't disappointed. After applying a good dollop to the soles of my feet I had a super deep sleep…Not surprising given that 5ML contains 200mg of magnesium. I felt so good afterwards that I've passed my pot on to a friend who has had trouble getting enough rest recently. I'll report back, but, at the very least, I know their feet will soon be sandal-ready. @katherine_spenley MAGNESIUM GLYMPHATIC SLEEPY BUTTER £25 Shop

Newly-engaged Emily Atack enjoys romantic getaway with fiancé Alistair Garner as the pair share a kiss while soaking up the sun in France

Newly engaged Emily Atack and her fiancé Alistair Garber have been enjoying a romantic getaway at the Midi-Pyrenees in France. And the actress, 35, who announced the hunk had popped the question on Friday, seems to be staying on cloud nine as she and Alistair continued to share a slew of snaps of their recent days away. In one image The Rivals star could be seen in fits of giggles as she sat next to her man, as the two shared a drink. Emily looked gorgeous in a denim dress, which she styled with a red patterned bandana that she wore in her hair. She accessorised with some funky bracelets and oversized sunglasses. In another snap, the actress was unable to wipe the smile off her face, as she beamed for the camera next to a pal, whilst flashing the diamond on her wedding finger. Emily looked relaxed as she went makeup free and showed off her sun kissed skin and wore her hair in a salty wet look, presumably from the pool. The couple, who welcomed son Barney in June 2024, looked happier than ever as a video on the carousel, showed the two of them blissfully unaware that anybody was watching and planting a huge kiss on each others lips. Emily who seemed to be laying the table, became distracted by the shirtless Alistair when the hunk planted a smooch on her. Another image showed the mum-of-one donning a white mini dress and brown sandals, looking ecstatic as she danced around the garden, her arms up in the air. In a final stunning shot, Emily opted for a floral maxi dress and wore a huge straw woven tote bag over her shoulder. She pinned her blonde locks into a low ponytail and looked out onto the stunning green landscape. Loving every moment of her rustic getaway, Emily gushed: 'I love you, I'm glad I exist' followed by a peach emoji. The actress has known Alistair for almost three decades as her mother is the sister of Alistair's stepmother Jane Garner. They were introduced after Emily's aunt started dating Alistair's father Stephen Garner in the early nighties before they got married in 1994. Writing in her 2019 autobiography Are We There Yet?, Emily gave clues as to why she's ended up in a relationship with Alistair, 38, because her cousins 'understand each other on a deep level.' She says: 'Cousins are the best invention since the Game Boy. They are basically 50 per cent sibling, 50 per cent mate. You look the same but different... 'You understand each other on a deep, deep, level and you have a smidgen more social etiquette towards them than your brother or sister... 'It makes me sad for my friends who don't have that relationship with their cousins, because mine were the best friends I ever had. They are still my best friends to this day.' Emily rarely comments on her private life but has now admitted that she feels as if she has 'won the lottery' with the little one, and added that she couldn't have gone through the 'difficult labour' with anyone but her partner. She told HELLO! magazine last year: 'I couldn't ask for a better partner and Al is the only person on this earth that I could have done this with. 'It was a very difficult birth and after 12 hours of labour I ended up having an emergency caesarean, but he was so calm.' Emily also described Alistair as her 'literal rock' and can not picture her life with anyone else. She added: 'All the cliches of life become true when you fall in love and have a baby. He's my rock, but he really, literally, is my rock; I couldn't do life with anyone else but him.' She explained that they had hoped to have a family of their own after a year of dating and discovered her pregnancy in November 2023 when she realised she had missed a period. She told The Times: '[Alistair] joked, "Let's buy a pregnancy test then" We did and I was pregnant. 'It was the happiest, most perfect day of my life. Not long afterwards, he packed all his stuff in a van in Manchester where he lived and arrived at my house.' The actress explained that shortly after this, they bought a house together and Barney conveniently arrived the day after they finished unpacking. Emily has a large number of cousins courtesy of the sprawling families of both her parents, actress Kate and singer father Keith Atack, who split in 2007. Alistair hails from her mother's side, being the stepson of Kate's sister Jane who married his father Stephen Garner, who passed away in the summer of 2023, leaving Emily devastated.

How I save over $600 on my 'recession nails' whilst still enjoying luxe manicures: POLISHED with Elise Wilson

Welcome to Polished with Elise Wilson, where FEMAIL's qualified makeup artist and hair stylist answers your questions, shares advice and trials the up-and-coming beauty and skincare trends so you don't have to. I simply do not care if this sounds vain, but I live my life by the saying, 'If you look good, you feel good'. In this economy, though? It's proving a little bit harder to look 'as good' as I once did because unfortunately, I am an adult, and I have to also pay a lot of bills. It does sadden me a bit that many of us are rethinking the little luxuries we used to take for granted, especially when it comes to our beauty treats. But for me, and I know I'm not alone, there's one small indulgence I've always found hard to give up, and that's getting my nails done. There's just something about a fresh mani that instantly makes you feel more polished, more put-together, and more like you've got your life in order… even when everything else around you is chaos. It's self-care, sure, but it's also confidence in a bottle. However, when I finally crunched the numbers, I realised my regular nail appointments were adding up to well over $1,600 a year. That's basically a designer handbag or a return flight to Europe, sitting there on my fingertips, chipping away (literally and financially) every two to three weeks. So instead of waving goodbye to the salon altogether, I got smarter. I started looking into ways to stretch out the time between visits, reduce the cost of each appointment, and even DIY it when needed - without sacrificing the glossy, groomed look I love. That's when I stumbled upon the term 'recession nails', and suddenly, it all made sense. The idea behind recession nails is simple; it's any type of manicure or nail maintenance that's designed to either cost less up front or save you money over time. It's the art of being a beauty budget queen by cutting back without feeling like you're missing out. Whether it's choosing colours that grow out better, opting for techniques that last longer, or having clever tools and tricks at home to maintain the look yourself, it's all about getting more bang for your buck. And in this financial climate, that's a beauty strategy I can get behind. So if you, like me, still want to treat yourself but don't want to be caught out when your bank statement hits your inbox, please read on. These are my tried-and-tested, money-saving mani hacks that'll keep your nails looking chic without sacrificing your savings. Get an updated Russian manicure I used to be the girl who'd roll into the salon every two weeks like clockwork, shelling out around $65 a pop for a fresh mani. But once I discovered the magic of the Russian manicure with BIAB (Builder in a Bottle), everything changed. This technique involves a super-detailed e-file cuticle clean (which is cleaner, neater, and way more precise), and the BIAB base gives your nails a beautiful, strong overlay that lasts. Yes, it's a little pricier upfront - mine costs $90 - but I only need to get it done once a month, instead of fortnightly. Do the maths, that's a saving of $610 a year. Not to mention, I've reclaimed my time and I'm no longer glued to a nail table every other weekend. Because seriously, who has the time. Schedule fill-ins instead of full sets If you're a fan of acrylics or gel extensions, you'll know how expensive those full sets can get. So, instead of starting from scratch each time, book in for fill-ins. Most salons offer them for significantly less than a fresh set, and they take half the time. Your nail tech will simply refill the regrowth area and reshape your nails. It's like a facelift for your fingertips without the big price tag. For a quick fix, keep press-on nails handy Gone are the days when press-on nails were flimsy bits of plastic from the $2 shop. Today's versions are gorgeous, and some even look identical to salon acrylics. Before I was getting my BIAB, I'd always keep a pack in my drawer at home and at work for last-minute plans or when I didn't have time to get to the salon. They take 10 minutes to apply (I even did mine on a one-hour flight to Byron Bay once), last up to a week when used with proper glue or sticky tabs, and come in every shape and colours imaginable. It's the ultimate emergency mani, and no appointment necessary. Stick to nude-coloured polish A classic nude manicure doesn't just look elegant, it's also a genius money-saving strategy. When your natural nails start to grow out, it's way less obvious with a soft pink, beige or sheer taupe. Bright colours and bold nail art might look cute at first, but they'll betray your budget efforts pretty quickly. There's a reason why 'princess nails', 'soap nails', and the 'quiet luxury' aesthetic are all over TikTok and Instagram right now. This isn't just about beauty trends, it's a sign of the times. As financial wellness expert Nicole Victoria put it in her recent viral clip: 'These trends don't just appear, they signal something deeper.' Translation? People are tightening their belts… but they still want to look polished doing it. Take supplements to boost healthy nail growth Qsilica Skin, Hair & Nails Capsules ($59), available at Chemist Warehouse If you want your mani to last longer and your nails to grow stronger, start from the inside out. A good supplement routine can make all the difference. Look for ingredients like silica, biotin, zinc and collagen, which are known to support nail strength and reduce breakage. It's a small investment that pays off, especially if it means your nails won't peel, snap, or crack before your next fill. Make your own cuticle oil – straight from your pantry Save money by making your own cuticle oil from pantry staples like jojoba, almond, coconut or even olive oil You know those tiny bottles of cuticle oil at the salon that cost as much as your actual manicure? Skip them. You can make your own using pantry staples like jojoba, almond, coconut or even olive oil. Just rub a drop into each cuticle every night before bed. Trust me your nails will stay hydrated, your mani will last longer, and your bank account will thank you. Use a high-quality top coat If you're going full DIY, do not skimp on the top coat. A good one will make even the most amateur mani last twice as long and save you the frustration of chips within 24 hours. Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Top Coat, $11.37 (on sale from ($18.95) My go-to is Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Top Coat ($18.95), it gives that ultra-glossy gel finish without the need for a UV lamp. Just pair it with your favourite polish and you're good to go. These little hacks have not only saved me hundreds of dollars a year, but they've also changed how I approach beauty in general. It's not about doing less, it's about doing it better. In the age of rising prices and economic uncertainty, 'recession nails' might just be the perfect combination of luxury and logic. Because honestly? Life's too short for bad nails - and way too expensive for bad budgeting.
