'Easy to use' heated rollers that give 'long lasting curls' now £38 in limited time deal
When it comes to hair styling, there are a wide range of tools you can use to get your hair to transform from pin straight to volumised curls. While a curling wand or even a pair of straighteners can do the trick, there is a different level of bounce that can be achieved with a roller.
Now while traditional rollers may initially be fiddly to put in, once they are in place you can go about the rest of your day and quickly whip them out before you head out of the door. However, this may not be the most helpful solution for curling your hair if you don't have enough time to sit around in the morning to apply them.
For those in need of a quick solution, Remington's PROluxe Heated Hair Rollers claim to be able to set curls in only five minutes. Normally retailing for £59.99, Amazon shoppers can now grab this handy hair styling gadget for £38 in a limited time deal.
Equipped with 20 velvet flocked rollers for full curl coverage - eight medium (25mm) and 12 large (32mm) - Remington's Heated Roller set has been designed to leave your hair kink-free after styling. In order to make sure not a single curl falls out of place, the rollers feature grip technology to make taming your hair a peaceful process.
Delivered with a handy compact case, this device doesn't just store the rollers, it also heats them up whilst placed inside. Perfect for those in a rush, the case will heat the rollers up in just 90 seconds and they will then only take five minutes for the curls to set.

Product Description
Each of the rollers comes with a clip to hold the curl in place, which is also heated up by Remington's intelligent OptiHeat technology. For the best results, users should place the large rollers on the top sections of your hair.
Alternatively, Argos has dropped the price of the BaByliss Thermo-Ceramic Heated Hair Rollers. Normally retailing for £60, shoppers can now grab it for £50 along with a three year warranty. Featuring 20 ceramic-infused rollers in three different sizes, shoppers can create a range of different hair styles.
On the other hand, if shoppers would prefer to stick with a curling wand, Amazon shoppers have been raving over the TYMO CURLPRO Automatic Rotating Curling Iron. Retailing for £62.99, all users need to do is place a section of their hair into the device and it will automatically curl your hair with its anti-scald design.
Back to the Remington Heated Rollers, Amazon shoppers have awarded them a 4.4 star rating, with over 1,000 people buying the device in the last 30 days.
One delighted shopper wrote: "I absolutely love these Remington heated rollers. They heat up fast, are easy to use, and give my hair great volume and long-lasting curls. The clips hold well without leaving dents, and the compact case makes storage simple.
"I'd recommend leaving them in your hair for an hour for the best results even though the instruction sheet mentions 5 minutes. Definitely a good buy."
With another five-star reviewer adding: "Love these heated rollers really do work to give curl and bounce in hair highly recommend."
However, one shopper admitted to finding the rollers difficult to use at first, writing: "These are a great set of heated rollers and I found they were fairly easy to use for my shoulder length hair, the only issue that is a little tricky is getting used to putting them back in the right way with the clips on.
"Having said that I quickly got used to it and the fact the clips heat up is a great feature."
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.
With another person also adding: "The only thing I would say is I have really thick hair and so 20 rollers just isn't enough to do my whole head, but I can imagine if you have thinner hair it's perfect."
Despite this, one top reviewer gushed: "WOW - I have never been so delighted by an amazon purchase !!! My rubbish hair is now fantastic! They heat up quickly, they're easy to use, I LOVE them!!!"
With a sixth customer commenting: "100 per cent buy, I got this for Christmas and it's amazing. The curls come out amazing. I would recommend looking up TikToks on how to use it before you use it."

'Superb' magnetic charger that is a 'must have' for Oasis concert gets £100 slash
'This sleek and compact power bank is perfect for carrying with you wherever you go.' One essential device to have on hand, especially if you are travelling or going to late night events, is a portable charger. Able to give your smartphone a much needed battery boost at a moment's notice, these chargers easily become your everyday companion. However, one issue that comes with a variety of power banks is that many require a long cable to connect with your phone. This can quickly become a hassle if you end up getting tangled in the wire and not being able to easily use your tech device. In order to combat this, many brands have now come out with magnetic chargers which are compatible with a variety of smartphones on the market, including Samsung and iPhone. These seamlessly attach to the back of your phone so you can continue having a free range of movement. One popular charger we found that won't break the bank is currently reduced on Amazon. Normally retailing for £129.99, shoppers can now buy the Matast Magnetic Charger for £28.49. This is ideal for events such as concerts as shoppers can easily capture their favourite songs without worrying about losing any battery. For example, those who were lucky enough to get their hands on some highly sought after Oasis tickets may want to consider bringing a portable charger with them to help store what may be once in a lifetime memories. The Manchester duo kicked off their highly anticipated reunion tour on July 4 in Cardiff and are set to entertain Scottish fans in Murrayfield Stadium in three sold out shows on August 8, 9 and 12. With the setlist featuring fan favourites such as Morning Glory, Champagne Supernova and Wonderwall, fans won't want to miss a single moment. To lend a helping hand, this magnetic charger can support wireless charging of up to 15W, and is said to give a 45 per cent power boost to an iPhone 15 in just 35 minutes. Alternatively, shoppers can connect their devices with a USB-C cable to match with a wider variety of devices, including tablets and Bluetooth headphones. Shoppers will also have added piece of mind with this charger as it comes with a digital display that shows the battery remaining in the power bank. With an impressive 10,000mAh battery built-in, many shoppers have raved over getting multiple charges out of the nifty power bank. Matast Magnetic Charger £129.99 £28.49 Amazon Buy Now Product Description Another popular magnetic charger on Amazon is the Azmuth Mag-Safe Power Bank. Dropped down from £34.99 to £27.99, shoppers can choose between either a black or blue device to best match their phone's aesthetic. Along with a display to show the power remaining, the device can charge up to five devices at once. Alternatively, Argos is selling the Juice 5000mAh Magnetic Slim Portable Power Bank for £24.99. Featuring a slim design, this device features a 15W magnetic ring and a 20W USB-C port to make a quick power boost easily accessible. However, this device does have a smaller battery than the other power banks. Back to the Matast Magnetic Charger, Amazon shoppers have awarded this handy device a 4.7 star rating, with over 1,000 people purchasing the nifty piece of tech in the last 30 days. One shopper praised: "Great magnetic power bank for my iPhone! It attaches securely, charges efficiently, and the battery life is impressive. Easy to carry and super practical for daily use." With another five-star reviewer adding: "This wireless charger is superb for travelling because it is easily portable and one does not need any cable. I have used it for two days in my trip to Turkey and it was really fast charging and its battery life is good. Highly recommended." However, one shopper was less pleased with the charger, writing: "Doesn't charge that fast how they said on the description and it doesn't work properly but good quality of product its feel premium." While another person noted about Android devices: "Charges my phone just fine. My one issue is the shape of the product. For a Samsung S24, most cases will come with a lip next to the camera lenses, which prevents the product from coming in full contact with the charging bit. It still works, but likely not as well as it's supposed to." Despite this, a top reviewer wrote: "This sleek and compact power bank is perfect for carrying with you wherever you go. I love its wireless capability, which means you don't have to worry about remembering your cables. Another great feature is that it automatically turns off when not in use, conserving energy. "The LED indicator is incredibly useful, as it shows you exactly how much charge is left—unlike my old one, where I was always guessing! Plus, it offers fast charging, making it a must-have for anyone constantly on the move." To buy the Matast Magnetic Charger, click HERE. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Samsung Galaxy phone gets even cheaper as it falls below £250
The Samsung Galaxy model has three main camera sensors, AI-powered zoom, a big battery and plenty of storage Samsung is renowned for some of the industry's high-performance phones on the market, look at the Galaxy S25 Ultra or its newest Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7. These come with a high cost, often reaching as much as £1,000 each, leaving some shoppers scouring for cheaper alternatives. Fortunately, Samsung has an offering for those of us who are more budget-conscious. The Galaxy A26, which hit the market in March 2025, was launched at a price of £299. And now Amazon is offering an ever cheaper price. In a new sale, the Prime retailer has slashed £50 off the price for a limited period. This means that customers can now bag a perfectly capable brand new Samsung Galaxy phone for £249, a price which is matched at the Samsung store too. Despite being at the budget end of the range, it still retains many features from Samsung's pricier models. For starters, it boasts three main camera sensors, including an ultra-wide, normal wide, and macro camera. While it doesn't have a telephoto zoom, it can use AI to zoom in up to 10x. Additionally, it offers a decent amount of storage for all photographic memories. With 256GB, it provides double the base storage capacity of an iPhone 16. Add to this six years of guaranteed software updates, and buyers can be confident that this Samsung device will serve them well for a considerable time. While it may not have as powerful a processor as the top-end Galaxy S25 models, it strikes a great balance for those looking to save a bit of money. Amazon is currently offering some top-notch budget smartphones, including the quirky Nothing Phone (3A), which sports a unique design on the back and is up for grabs at just £289. For those looking to spend even less, the HONOR X6c could be an option, discounted to £89.99 from its usual price of £129.99. It boasts a 120Hz display and a hefty 5300mAh battery. The Samsung Galaxy A26 has a 4.3-star rating on Amazon. One satisfied customer commented: "Great phone at a good price, good looking and nice clear screen." Another happy buyer remarked: "Surprisingly good for the price. It's a fair sized phone with a good camera and screen considering how cheap it is. Highly recommend." Yet another added: "I have used it for several days but I am very happy with the performance. Battery lasts all day with heavy usage, light weight." Some users, however, did report disappointing battery life despite its large capacity. As one person said: "Good phone - nothing out of the ordinary though. Battery runs out quickly."
