Lisa Snowdon-loved 'genuinely impressive' hair loss serum is now on sale
Stress, hormonal fluctuations, postnatal recovery, dietary habits, or even wearing tight hairstyles can all lead to hair thinning and loss, irrespective of one's age. While half of women will encounter this at some point in their lives, losing between 50 and 100 strands of hair daily is deemed normal.
However, for those experiencing more pronounced hair loss, characterised by an increase in hair left on the brush, a widening parting, or bald patches, it can often lead to a decline in self-esteem.
NIOXIN, a brand that has received considerable acclaim for its anti-hair loss products, is endorsed by model and Celebrity Masterchef star Lisa Snowdon, who has openly shared her own experiences with hair loss. In honour of Hair Loss Awareness month, the brand is currently running a promotion on Lookfantastic, which reduces its Anti-Hair Loss Serum Hair Growth Serum for Thinning Hair to £46 from £57.50.

The NIOXIN Anti-Hair Loss Serum Hair Growth Serum is a leave-in serum formulated to minimise the risk of breakage and hair fall. According to Lookfantastic, beauty aficionados who have tried this product have witnessed 'astonishing' results in as little as eight weeks, with 93% of participants in a clinical study experiencing improved hair anchorage.
The serum, recommended for use alongside the brand's shampoo and conditioner, is loaded with hair follicle-stimulating caffeine, lauric acid, and niacinamide. The concoction aims to nourish and safeguard the scalp, thereby fostering ideal conditions for healthy hair growth, reports Chronicle Live.
Promising denser, more robust hair from the first use, the serum necessitates 15 pumps massaged into the scalp (on either dry or wet hair) and should not be rinsed out.
This NIOXIN product rivals the likes of brands such as UKLASH and Skin + Me, whose hair regrowth products have received rave reviews from beauty buffs and celebrities alike. UKLASH's Hair Growth Serum costs a little less at £40 for a one-time purchase and uses active ingredients like AnaGain™ (Pea Sprout Extract), Phytic Acid, and Turmeric to 'revitalise and stimulate hair growth' at the scalp.
Skin + Me's The Drops for hair growth are an even more affordable option, currently on sale for £14.99 down from £34.99. With major results reported in three to six months with consistent use, the Skin + Me formula claims to 'reverse loss', 'stop thinning' and 'restore density' with its scientifically proven active ingredients.
The NIOXIN serum, endorsed by Lisa Snowdon as a 'game changer' for thinning hair, has been met with stellar feedback from customers. A top-rated review on Lookfantastic's site enthuses: "I've been using Nioxin Anti-Hair Loss Serum for a few weeks, and I'm pretty impressed. The serum is easy to apply. Just pump once on your palm and spread. It doesn't feel greasy or heavy on my scalp.
"I've noticed a slight improvement in the thickness of my hair, I have little baldness on my side head, and it seems to be growing back in that area where it was thinning. It doesn't have a strong smell, which I like.
"While it's still early to tell if it'll completely stop hair loss, I've seen some positive changes, and I feel more confident about my hair's health. Worth trying it."
Another satisfied customer shared their experience, saying: "I have been using the Nioxin Anti-Hair Loss Serum Growth Serum for thinning hair for a few months now, and I am genuinely impressed with the results. Initially, I was sceptical about trying another product for hair thinning, but this serum has exceeded my expectations."
They continued: "Over time, my hair has begun to feel thicker, and I'm even noticing some regrowth in areas that were visibly thinning. I also appreciate that the serum has a pleasant, subtle scent, unlike many other treatments I've tried.
"It's now a staple in my hair care routine, and I highly recommend it to anyone dealing with thinning hair or looking to improve their scalp health. Nioxin has truly delivered with this product, and I feel much more confident about my hair than I have in years.
"I've been using this for about eight months now, and the amount of hair that I shed now in comparison to before is crazy," said another. "It does help with my excess shedding, and also my hairline is looking a bit fuller in the patches that were thinning. I think consistency is key with this."
A different buyer emphasised how they noticed changes within just seven days, noting: "The best hair growth serum for hair! I could see results after weeks of using it. You have to be consistent with the product, but it's working well. Great value. Highly recommend".
Whilst countless shoppers enjoyed favourable results, some have struggled with progress, with one person explaining: "Have used it a few times, not seen any difference yet, will persevere for longer, isn't making my hair any worse so will just keep going for a while yet."
A separate reviewer commented on the NIOXIN treatment: "Very great product! Since I began using this system, my hair loss has slowed down considerably. When using the shampoo with the conditioner and the serum, it has certainly contributed to the health and thickness of my hair."

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. "My skin has never felt so soft and hydrated, and the softness lasts all day," commented one purchaser. For a more budget-friendly option, there's the Vichy Mineral 89 100H Rich Cream. 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.

This Morning's Lisa Snowdon loves hair serum for thinning hair that's a 'staple'

While it's something 50% of women will experience in their life, a relatively normal amount to shed is between 50 to 100 hairs per day. But for those for whom hair loss is a little more than this, showcased in more hair in the hairbrush, parting becoming wider and more bald spots, this byproduct can often leave a person lacking in confidence. One brand that has received a lot of love for its anti-hair loss products, including model and Celebrity Masterchef star Lisa Snowdon - who's been open about her own hair loss journey - is NIOXIN. The 4.7 star rated Anti Hair Loss Serum Hair Growth Serum for Thinning Hair retails at £57.50 and can be shopped from Lookfantastic.
