Amazon cuts 25% off 'game changing' hair mask that is 'better than K18 and Olaplex'
If your dry, damaged hair is in need of some repair, there are a couple of to-brands many will recommend. Two that come to mind will be Olaplex and K18.
Like many professional names, they can often be almost as pricey as a trip to the salon itself. Which leads many beauty buffs to look for any alternatives that deliver similar results on a budget.
One that is said to be "better than" both the big names is the L'Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Molecular Leave-In Hair Mask. With over 2,000 reviews on Amazon, this treatment is said to "repair two years of damage in just one use."
It's also currently enjoying a 25 percent discount with the delivery firm, as a 100ml bottle is now £23.30, down from £31. Considering rival retailer Boots still stocks it at full price, this is a deal you won't want to miss.
L'Oreal Paris' Molecular Leave-in Hair Mask works to restore strength and elasticity to your hair by rebuilding your mane's molecular structure. It does so by injecting a peptides bonder and five amino acids into the fibre of your hair, leaving it stronger, healthier and shinier.
It also won't weigh your hair down, as it boasts a "lightweight" and "fast absorbing" texture. The results apparently speak for themselves, as the haircare firm says that it can provide up to 97 percent more strength.
Your don't need to worry about any further damage being caused on your delicate mane during styling, as the treatment also provides heat protection up to 230C.
Singled out as an 'Amazon Choice' product with a 4.5 rating, impressed beauty fans have raved over the Absolut Repair Molecular Leave-In Hair Mask, praising it as a "game changer" that fixed their hair in "one application."

Someone else impressed with the results wrote: "Best I've ever used. Better than top branded stuff like k18 or olaplex."
Another Amazon review read: "Super soft and hydrating makes my hair feel like I been to the hairdressers. Would highly recommend."

Anas Sarwar is right to say Scots want treatment, not apologies when it comes to the NHS
Anas Sarwar is right to say Scots want treatment, not apologies, when it comes to the NHS. One in six people are currently stuck on a waiting list of some kind, a dire insight into the challenges that continue to plague our health service years after the Covid pandemic. Outpatient waiting times only worsen, with more than 5000 Scots left waiting more than two years for some procedures. The First Minister again apologised when pressed on the matter at Holyrood yesterday, something that is becoming a regular occurrence. But it's action, not words, that patients need. The SNP government points to the fact that a record £21billion will be spent on the NHS in Scotland this year. But it's how that money is spent that counts. Chucking money at problems will not make them go away. It won't solve staff retention issues when nurses report feeling burned out and overworked. There is also no denying Scotland, like the rest of the UK, is still living with the intolerable burden of the pandemic. Health chiefs are warning of the risks of measles after more cases were recorded in Scotland in the first five months of the year than all of 2024. Too many adults have bought in to internet conspiracies in recent years about the safety of vaccinations. Two years ago there was just one case of measles in Scotland but last year that rose to 24 laboratory-confirmed cases. It is vital every child receives every vaccination they are entitled to. We can all play our part in getting the NHS back on track. Getting vaccinated is part of that national effort. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Old bill blunders rack up huge bill Police bosses will no doubt be lobbying for greater resources the next time Scottish Government budgets are being set, with a strong case for a bigger slice of the pie. More frontline cops are certainly needed to combat Scotland's youth violence epidemic. And officers are currently engaged in a massive operation to nail the culprits responsible for the recent war between crime gangs. So it is frustrating that the force has shipped out £18million in compensation claims in the last six years. That money could have been spent on frontline officers, new equipment or community outreach programmes. Instead, it has been paid out to members of the public and former officers after a variety of blunders. If Chief Constable Jo Farrell wants more public cash, she has to make sure her force stops making so many mistakes.

Scot who smoked while watching dad die of lung cancer backs calls for 'smoke free' Scotland
"I realised then that if I didn't stop smoking, I would end up in the same position as my dad" A Scot who took up smoking at the age of just 13 - and continued despite watching his dad die from lung cancer - has backed calls for Scotland to become "smoke-free". Gower Tan took up the habit while he was still at school. And he is now campaigning for an end to the harms caused by tobacco, and supporting the Tobacco and Vapes Bill. This afternoon MSPs voted to back UK legislation which aims to create a "smoke-free generation", with a minister hailing it as a "landmark" law. The Tobacco and Vapes Bill is UK-wide legislation which would create a 'smoke-free generation' by banning tobacco products for anyone born after January 1, 2009. It would also bring in restrictions on the advertising and sale of vapes, as well as reviewing the packaging of e-cigarettes. Gower was among the campaigners gathered at the Scottish Parliament. The 55-year-old, of Glasgow, supports a team of dedicated Cancer Research UK volunteers in Scotland who have been campaigning for an end to tobacco harms, Glasgow Live reports. He said: "It wasn't long after taking up smoking as a teenager that I realised I was smoking not through choice but addiction. I wanted to quit not long after I started. But it was incredibly difficult. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.

"I was only able to do so in the end at the age of 40 and with the expert help of a smoking cessation service. Even as I watched dad die from his lung cancer, without thinking, I stepped out into the garden and lit up a cigarette. "I realised then that if I didn't stop smoking, I would end up in the same position as my dad – dying from lung cancer. I was scared my children would have to go through the same thing, to watch me die from lung cancer. Despite repeated attempts, I couldn't quit." Gower's dad Michael, who grew up in Glasgow, also started smoking as a young teenager at Kelvinside Academy. He sadly died at the age of 66. Gower recalled: "I can still picture the thick haze of smoke in our living room. I can see the stacks of cigarette cards dad would collect with every purchase piled up in rubber bands in our dining room sideboard. "I would also go on to collect the cards inserted in each packet of cigarettes I smoked. Trapped in a toxic loyalty scheme, I'd swap the cards in for household items, including two silver candle holders I gifted to my mum. "The irony is I was also trading in years of my life. Secretly smoking in the garden, I knew things needed to change. I was no longer the fit, sporty kid I used to be. "A common cold would knock me out for weeks. Worse still, my children Olivia and Will were old enough to start piecing together my habit. "Anyone who has grappled with addiction will understand that the years which followed were far from easy. What came next was a constant battle: gum, patches, pills, a hypnotherapy session that was over before it began. "My brother later recommended a stop smoking service, which I put off again and again, until years of denial resulted in a 30 second call that changed my life. The hardest part was picking up the phone." Almost 15 years on from quitting smoking, Gower is dedicated to campaigning for an end to the harms caused by tobacco. Today's debate and vote in the Scottish Parliament will pave the way for legal cigarette sales to be phased out for good. Gower said: "When I look back to the day my dad died, I no longer feel guilt. It was the spark – not just of that cigarette, but of my journey to quit. That moment spurred me to cut ties with a product that was stripping away my health. "Our politicians now have the chance to protect the nation's health – and raising the age of sale for tobacco would help do just that. This historic legislation will mean that my children's children will never be able to legally be sold cigarettes. "When it comes to saving lives and making avoidable deaths like my dad's a distant memory, we can't afford complacency. If we've got the chance to stub out smoking for good, we must take it." Once the Bill has completed its journey through the House of Lords and receives Royal Assent, it can become law in Scotland. Following the vote Gower said: "What a gift for future generations".

Haribo urgently recalls popular family sweets found to contain cannabis
Multiple members of a family, alongside several other people, reportedly felt unwell after eating the sweets. Haribo has had to recall one of its popular bags of sweets. The decision was made after the treats were found to contain traces of cannabis. It has been reported that multiple members of one family, alongside several other people, became unwell after consuming the confectionary giant's 1kg pack of Haribo Happy Cola F!ZZ. The BBC reports that a spokesperson for the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA) said that some of the consumers had reported "dizziness" after eating the sweets. The agency further told the Dutch broadcaster SBS6 that "samples were taken and cannabis was found in them". Packs affected by the recall are sold only within the Netherlands and feature a best before date of January 2026. According to reports, only three packs were found to be contaminated, but Haribo has chosen to recall all of its stock as a "precaution." As of writing, it is said to be unclear how many people have become unwell since eating the sweets, while Dutch media reports that the police were investigating how they managed to be contaminated with traces of cannabis. A further statement has urged shoppers not to consume the sweets, as the affected packs "can lead to health complaints, such as dizziness, when consumed." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

It's not been determined whether the Haribo sweets that were contaminated were genuine or a counterfeit product, although the confectionary firm is said to be taking the incident "very seriously", adding that its customers safety was its highest priority. According to Haribo, the recall of its 1kg bags of Happy Cola F!ZZ affects only the Netherlands, with no other regions impacted. Other Haribo products are also said to be safe to consume. In UK recall news, we have reported that Iceland has had to pull a popular bakery item after it was found to contain an ingredient that had not been declared on the packaging. The frozen food supermarket's Daily Bakery 4 Sub Rolls, with the best before date of June 2, 2025, were found to contain barley, making them unsafe to eat for anyone with an allergy or intolerance to gluten. Iceland's full recall notice read: "We are taking the precautionary measure of recalling the date code of the above product as it may contain undeclared barley and therefore poses a potential risk to people with an allergy or intolerance to barley. "Only the best before date in this notice is affected."
