Glastonbury bound? Here are the beauty essentials to pack
But with the UK's biggest (and arguably best) festival around the corner, it's about time to start editing your beauty bag down to the real ride-or-dies - the things that will keep you going - and glowing when your bathing access is more wet-wipe than waterfall shower.
If time is short, no problem. Here are my picks.
Whether it's blazing hot. British drizzle or back-to-back clouds, SPF is a must. Opt for those that won't slide off by 3pm, even if you're dancing really hard. Ultra Violette Supreme Screen Hydrating Facial Skinscreen SPF50, (£34,spacenk.com) is one of my faves; super-light, it doesn't pill under makeup.
Top up as the day goes on with Garnier Vitamin C Over Makeup UV SPF50 Mist, (£12.99, Boots.com) Featherweight, it brightens tired skin.
Kopari Sunglaze Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen SPF30, (£35, cultbeauty.co.uk) meanwhile, is a shimmering, hydrating, coconut-infused beauty that delivers supple, gleaming festival-worthy limbs. And remember nothing ruins the fun like burnt lips, so don't forget your Ultrasun Lip Protection SPF50 (£8, cultbeauty.co.uk).
This year I discovered Lisa Eldridge's Seamless Skin Enhancing Tint, (£37, lisaeldridge.com) a self-proclaimed ' Fresh, luminous and light coverage tint in a feel-good formula made of 78% skincare ingredients.' Not only is it pocket-friendly, but it is also packed with superlative skincare, plus looks and feels like your own skin - but better. Delivering plump-ness but also support, it is supple, but not slippery. I don't even need to powder . Heaven! Clarin's Skin Illusion Tinted Moisturiser SPF25, (£45, clarins.co.uk) is another trusty option.
I'm more than a little captivated by Prada's Dimension Eyeshadow in Poetry, (£67, boots.com). The payoff is mega and I love the metal foil effect of that pink. If you can't wear sparkle at Glastonbury, where can you? Charlotte Tilbury's new Unreal Blush Healthy Glow Sticks, (£30, charlottetilbury.com) are great multitaskers. I wear mine not just on my cheeks, but my lips and eyelids too. Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky High Waterproof Mascara, (£12.99, lookfantastic.com) is a total winner for festivals. Last but not least, makeup artist Francesca Abrahamovitch told me about ONE/SIZE On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray (£15 at sephora.co.uk) and I have loved it ever since. It holds make up in place like a dream, keeping it looking fresher for longer.
We're not washing our hair at Glasto are we? Typebea G5 3-in-1 Dry Shampoo (£26, Typebea.com) refreshes roots and strands without a whiff of residue, but also incorporates a host of clever scalp-nurturing actives. Hair by Sam Mcknight Lazy Girl Dry Shampoo (£24, sammcknight.com) is another great option, and smells like a dream. When it comes to festival styling, keep things simple. Hershesons Air Dry Spray with UV Protection, (£18.00, hershesons.com) enhances your natural texture without salt, crunch or stickiness and now comes with built-in UV protection to guard against colour fade and sun damage. Just don't forget your Tangle Teaser! (£15, tangleteaser.com)
Your thirsty festival skin will love hot new South Korean import Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb, (£32, Beautybay.com). With hyaluronic acid and niacinamide, it can revitalise even the most lacklustre, dehydrated faces fast.
When it's 3am and you're in a tent, wet wipes are the way to go. Waterwipes, (£2.99, superdrug.com) are plant-based, plastic free and suitable for even the most sensitive skin. Soak them in Bioderma's mini Sensibio H2O Cleansing Micellar Water, (£6.50, lookfantastic.com) to remove glitter and waterproof makeup.
Between 24/7 dancing, warm pints of lager and queues for the water taps, festival dehydration is real. Hot new Aussie import Swiish Recharge Hydration + Electrolytes, (£20 for 20, swiish.com) is formulated for hydration and recovery, working to replenish lost electrolytes fast. Tip one of these cute little sachets into your water bottle daily and pretend it's wellness, not survival.

No Other Band Is Soaring On The Charts Like Fleetwood Mac
For most legacy acts, one compilation of greatest hits is usually enough, and only the biggest names from decades past can keep such a project on the charts for years. For Fleetwood Mac, however, one is not enough. The group regularly sees multiple collections — including proper studio albums — living on the same tallies, as fans in countries like the United States and the United Kingdom (where several members hail from) continue to stream and buy the act's music in huge numbers. This frame, Fleetwood Mac comes close to managing an incredible show of popularity, as two of its most popular titles both rise on one of the U.K.'s most competitive charts. Two Albums Fleetwood Mac Albums Near the Top 10 Fleetwood Mac fills two spaces on the Official Albums chart, which ranks the most consumed full-lengths and EPs in the nation. The band — which hasn't released a new album in more than two decades — nearly claims two of the top 10 biggest sets in one of the world's largest music markets at the same time. 50 Years – Don't Stop rises from No. 7 to No. 5, while Rumours sits not far behind at No. 11. Had that classic climbed just one space higher, the Grammy-winning outfit would have achieved a feat even many of today's most successful stars have never managed. 50 Years – Don't Stop Holds as Top Five Win 50 Years – Don't Stop has been Fleetwood Mac's go-to compilation for years, often hovering close to or inside the top 10 on multiple rankings. This frame, it appears on just two lists, but it's a top five success on both. In addition to the Official Albums chart, the collection also holds at No. 4 on the Official Albums Streaming tally. Rumours Climbs on Six Separate Tallies Rumours, meanwhile, can be found on half a dozen tallies in the U.K. The project, which launched Fleetwood Mac into the stratosphere decades ago and remains one of the bestselling full-lengths of all time, climbs on all six lists this week, ranking as both a top seller and a powerful streamer. Greatest Hits Returns to Multiple Sales Charts Fleetwood Mac manages a trio of charting releases in the U.K., as its Greatest Hits compilation — which is separate from 50 Years – Don't Stop — appears on three tallies. While it doesn't reach the Official Albums chart, the title does return to multiple sales-focused lists at the same time, proving that interest in the band's catalog extends far beyond its most famous compilation.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex shared an update on their partnership with Netflix after it was reported that their previous deal wouldn't be renewedNEED TO KNOW Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have made a new announcement about their partnership with Netflix The news comes after it was reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex wouldn't renew their $100 million contract with Netflix after it expires in September The couple signed the reported multi-year deal with the streamer in 2020Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's relationship with Netflix will continue. On August 11, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced with Netflix that they are extending their creative partnership through Archewell Productions with a multi-year, first look deal for film and television projects. 'We're proud to extend our partnership with Netflix and expand our work together to include the As ever brand," Meghan said in a statement. "My husband and I feel inspired by our partners who work closely with us and our Archewell Productions team to create thoughtful content across genres that resonates globally, and celebrates our shared vision.' Bela Bajaria, Netflix's Chief Content Officer, said: 'Harry and Meghan are influential voices whose stories resonate with audiences everywhere. The response to their work speaks for itself — Harry & Meghan gave viewers an intimate look into their lives and quickly became one of our most-watched documentary series. More recently, fans have been inspired by With Love, Meghan, with products from the new As ever line consistently selling out in record time. We're excited to continue our partnership with Archewell Productions and to entertain our members together.' Meghan's brand, developed in partnership with Netflix, will continue expanding into new product categories. The Duchess of Sussex also revealed that the second season of her show will premiere later this month, with a holiday special, With Love, Meghan: holiday Celebration, set to premiere in December. "This December, join Meghan in Montecito for a magical holiday celebration. Together, friends and family deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts, and share lots of laughs – with simple how-tos to follow at home. It's a holiday wonder with warmth, tradition, and a generous dose of joy," the release stated. Another project, Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within, was also announced, and will debut on Netflix later this year. "In the heart of Uganda's Masaka region, where the shadows of the HIV/AIDS crisis linger, a small orphanage becomes a beacon of hope. Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within goes beyond the viral videos to reveal a vibrant, one-of-a-kind community where orphaned children transform hardship into joy, dancing their way toward healing, belonging, and the promise of a brighter future," the statement continued. And despite reports to the contrary, the couple's adaptation of the bestselling novel, Meet Me at the Lake, is still in the works. "Archewell Productions is in active development on additional projects with Netflix that span a variety of content genres, including the feature adaptation of the bestselling novel by Carley Fortune, Meet Me At The Lake. This romantic drama follows a decade-spanning love story that begins with a chance encounter and a broken promise," the release stated. The update comes after it was widely reported last month that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's $100 deal with Netflix would not be renewed when it expires in September. A Hollywood insider told PEOPLE at the time that the multi-year production agreement won't be extended, reflecting a broader shift in Netflix's business strategy. The streaming service has been moving away from multi-project agreements and similarly transitioned a deal with former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama's Higher Ground production company. The couple's 2022 docuseries Harry & Meghan remains Netflix's most-watched documentary debut to date. The pair also produced Live to Lead (2022), Heart of Invictus (2023) and Polo (2024). Earlier this year, the Duchess of Sussex hosted and executive produced the first season of her lifestyle series, With Love, Meghan. The solo show, filmed in their town of Montecito, California, featured Meghan hosting friends like Mindy Kaling as she shared her cooking, entertaining and lifestyle tips and tricks. Meghan launched her lifestyle brand, As ever, alongside the series, and Netflix is a partner in the brand.

"We love José so much," Meghan said as she revealed the upcoming appearance at the TIME100 Summit in April. "I've been fortunate to have the people that I want on the show… I've been really lucky. We have a great, great lineup." Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

Joe Jonas' Ex Sophie Turner Reacts to Being Mom-Shamed
Sophie Turner, Joe Jonas' ex, has clapped back at those commenting on her parenting. This follows Turner sharing pictures from a night out at an Oasis concert, which led to some criticism. However, the actress did not let it slide and responded sharply. Sophie Turner reacts to backlash about her parenting style Sophie Turner, who shares two daughters with ex-husband Joe Jonas, recently became the focus of online criticism after posting a carousel of photos from an Oasis concert. The pictures show Turner enjoying the night: laughing with friends, posing for the camera, kissing a cardboard cutout of Liam Gallagher, and sporting a laid-back look in denim and a bucket hat. She captioned the post, 'Bucket hats & beers…. That'll do me.' While plenty of followers praised her night out, one commenter decided to take a swipe. They wrote, 'Lmfao I think she has forgotten that she has two kids.' Turner replied sharply, 'Ah I'm so sorry sometimes I forget some people can't think for themselves. So…. Get this….There's this crazy thing called shared custody. Maybe, just maybe, they were with their dad that day.' The response quickly spread across social media, with many chiming in to defend her. (via Entertainment Weekly) Previously, the Emmy-nominated actress has been candid about how deeply criticism of her parenting affects her. In a 2024 interview with British Vogue, she reflected on the intense media attention during her divorce, particularly tabloid claims that portrayed her as a partier. Turner said, 'It hurt because I really do completely torture myself over every move I make as a mother — mum guilt is so real! I just kept having to say to myself, 'None of this is true. You are a good mum, and you've never been a partier.'' Turner and Jonas married in 2019 and went through a very public split in 2023, when the latter filed for divorce in Florida. Their separation was finalized in September 2024, exactly one year later, after they reached a custody agreement. Originally reported by Disheeta Maheshwari on Mandatory.
