TypeBea launches 25% off sale this Hair Loss Awareness Month
Hair Loss Awareness Month runs throughout August, and aims to raise awareness around hair loss, the causes, and its impact on individuals.
To mark the occasion TYPEBEA – co-founded by Rita Ora and Anna Lahey – has launched 25% off sitewide, which is music to our ears.
For years I have battled with Trichotillomania and will regularly pull out strands of hair for hours on end, only to find a puddle of hair by my side. I have found other mechanisms to curb this 'anxiety tick', but it has made me conscious of sparse patches along my hairline.
I have tried almost every lotion and potion, and supplement, but nothing has been as effective in causing visible hair growth than TypeBea's G1 Overnight Peptide Serum. Anyone who speaks to me, or asks for my hair tips, it's this serum.
This lightweight serum is fast-absorbing, lightweight on the scalp and non-greasy. It has been formulated with baicapil and peptides that are gentle on the skin but work to support healthy hair growth, hair density and combat hair loss. BUY NOW FOR £32.35 (WAS £43)
The G1 serum is lightweight on my scalp, and non-greasy, so I can apply a few drops on the targeted area morning or night without having to restyle my hair, which is a rare feature.
The serum is an innovative formulation because it is a pH balancing formula and can be applied on clean or dirty hair and it will still be effective. Whereas, other hair growth serums I have tried have to be applied to clean hair, which is then left looking greasy after applying a serum.
It is also fast absorbing, which is why you aren't left with that sticky residue after applying a few drops of the serum on your hair.
The serum contains Baicapil, which is the key ingredient to stimulate hair growth, improve hair density and combat hair loss. It has also been made without sulphates, silicones and parabens, so it is gentle on all hair and scalp types.
It is also super simple to use, just drop 1ml of the product via the pipette onto the targeted area and massage in. That's it. More Trending
It's effective, it's gentle, and it's now even more affordable now it's on sale for £32.35. However, if you are an avid fan you can opt for TYPEBEA's subscribe and save option. Shoppers can select a 14-day or 90-day subscription, all of which will be reduced by 15% so you will never be without the serum.
TYPEBEA also recommends using alongside other products, and I have tried the Growth shampoo and conditioner, which equally impressed me in leaving my hair ultra clean.
The Growth Shampoo can be purchased separately for £17.25 down from £23, or as a duo alongside the matching G3 Growth Conditioner. Alternatively, shop the full four-piece set, aka The Growth Routine Kit, which includes the G1 Overnight Boosting Peptide Serum, G2 Strength and Length Shampoo, G3 Strength and Length Conditioner, as well as G4 Hydra-Gloss Treatment for £77.63 reduced from £103.50.
The discount is automatically applied at the checkout, so all you have to do is add your favourites to your virtual basket.

Man, 60, gave himself rare condition after going to ChatGPT for diet advice
A man gave himself a psychological condition after turning to ChatGPT for medical advice. The unnamed man, 60, told doctors he was trying to eliminate table salt from his diet, having read about its negative effects. Chatting with the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, he decided to eliminate salt, also known as sodium chloride, from his diet completely. He conducted a 'personal experiment' by replacing it with sodium bromide, used in the early 20th century to make sedatives, that he had purchased online. The man, who had no psychiatric history, was taken to the hospital after becoming convinced his neighbour had poisoned him. A report of the man's case, detailed in the Annals of Internal Medicine, said the patient developed bromism, caused by overexposure to bromide. The study said: 'In the first 24 hours of admission, he expressed increasing paranoia and auditory and visual hallucinations, which, after attempting to escape, resulted in an involuntary psychiatric hold for grave disability.' He also suffered insomnia, fatigue, muscle coordination issues and excessive thirst, his doctors noted. Medics treated the man's condition and discharged him a few weeks later. The article authors said it is unclear what advice the virtual assistant gave the man, as they cannot access his chat log. When they asked the app what salt should be replaced with, bromide was among the recommendations. The bot did note that 'context matters', though did not provide a health warning 'as we presume a medical professional would do', the authors wrote. When Metro did the same today, bromide is no longer included and instead includes an 'Important Safety Note: Avoid Toxic Alternatives'. The advice reads: 'A recent medical case made headlines: a man replaced salt with sodium bromide, based on advice from ChatGPT, which led to bromism – a rare and dangerous condition (causing paranoia, psychosis, insomnia, skin issues). He required hospitalisation. 'Bottom line: Never use unverified, off‑label substances like sodium bromide as salt substitutes. Always rely on safe, reputable options and seek medical guidance when in doubt.' Sodium chloride has been linked to negative health effects, such as raised blood pressure, but health experts stress it is part of a balanced diet. According to the UK Health Security Agency, bromide is used in water sanitisers for pools and spas. Low-level exposure is unlikely to cause adverse health effects. People are increasingly using ChatGPT and other AI-powered chatbots for day-to-day advice, from writing emails to planning their monthly budgets. About one in six Americans have sought medical advice from ChatGPT, according to a recent survey. In the UK, one in five GPs use AI tools. Studies have shown that ChatGPT can offer incorrect health advice, sometimes citing medical reports that do not exist. The report authors concluded: 'While it is a tool with much potential to provide a bridge between scientists and the nonacademic population, AI also carries the risk for promulgating decontextualised information. More Trending 'It is highly unlikely that a medical expert would have mentioned sodium bromide when faced with a patient looking for a viable substitute for sodium chloride.' The tech start-up, which owns ChatGPT, OpenAI, notes in its service terms that the communication tool is not intended for use in diagnosing or treating a health condition. The company's terms of use state: 'You should not rely on Output from our Services as a sole source of truth or factual information, or as a substitute for professional advice.'

Byoma launches new Blemish range to target breakouts for all ages
Metro 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 BYOMA first launched in 2022, and ever since it has gone from strength to strength. There are numerous products I have tried, tested and adored. But the new six-piece Blemish range from Byoma has blown my socks off. In recent years I have been plagued with hormonal breakouts, more so than I did when I was a teenager – who would have thought it? I have tried so many products and home remedies, even supplements to help beat the breakouts bubbling under the skin when Auntie Flo comes knocking, but nothing quite gets rid of them for good. Even if the redness and whitehead disappears, it often leaves a raised lump, or redness I can't shift, only for it to reappear a few weeks later with vengeance. I have my best friend's wedding approaching, and I'm a bridesmaid, so I have been more conscious of my skin than ever. Unsurprisingly, my skin has decided to have a flare up, and I have erupted in more boils and red bumps on my face than I care to admit. Thankfully, BYOMA sent me its new Blemish range ahead of its official release in Boots stores, and it's making quite the impact on my skin already. The six-part range includes face and body products, but I have mainly been testing the face products of late in the hope I'll get a clear complexion once again. Spoiler: In three days I've noticed a huge difference already. It's commonplace for blemish busting products to be quite drying on the skin, or burn as it hits the spot. But not BYOMA. This collection has been formulated to treat the breakouts, clear those blemishes, but without compromising the skin barrier, or stripping my skin of its moisture. Not only is this rare, but it's essential considering this is designed for all ages and sensitivities. Instead, BYOMA has patented its Clearamide Complex with salicylic acid to treat those blemishes, but strengthen the skin's barrier, which can be the cause for some breakouts. I cleanse morning and night, sometimes even twice in the evening, but this doesn't stop a breakout. Lately, I have been leaning on BYOMA's Clearing Cleanser to remove the dirt and grime lingering on my skin, and to unclog congested pores in the morning and evening. Unlike other toners I have tried over the years, BYOMA's Redness Relief Soothing Toner is super gentle on the skin. Interestingly, it is a spray rather than a liquid formula that needs to be applied sparingly to a cotton pad and swept across the face. This toner is ultra gentle, in fact I'd say it's more like a face mist. For the more aggressive breakouts on my skin, I have applied the Blemish Clearing Paste directly to those areas to minimise the redness, and treat that specific spot by pulling out its impurities. It applies like a clay mask, and leaves behind a chalky texture that is slightly coloured, so I would recommend applying at night. Though wait until it has dried to put your head on the pillow. Just like the toner, this product doesn't sting or cause my breakout to react like other spot treatments, which can leave my skin more inflamed. More Trending The moisturiser is also a dream to apply. If I didn't know any better I would assume it was like any other lightweight, oil-free moisturiser to hydrate my skin. However, it is packed with skin-loving and acne-busting ingredients that help to nourish the skin, repair the skin barrier, and minimise any pigmentation. Every item in the collection is super affordable, as it ranges from £9.99 to £14.99. The best part is this collection is suitable for all ages, so whether you are a teen having a breakout or an adult, this range offers gentle yet effective solutions. Formulated with 25 salicyclic acid, bakuchiol, green tea extract and allantoin, which combine to provide a potent treatment to reduce excess sebum on the skin that can contribute to clogged pores and breakouts, as well as combat post-blemish marks. Green tea extract is the key ingredient to calm stressed and inflamed skin. It is a milky texture that blends into the skin and is not drying. BUY NOW FOR £12.99 This toner comes in a fine mist spray form, which is unlike other toners and more like a face mist – just more has been formulated using panthenol, heartleaf extract, BYOMA's signature Clearamide Complex and chamomile extract. Not only does it treat breakouts, but it also hydrates and soothes the skin. It has also been claimed to improve the skin barrier by 60% within one hour. BUY NOW FOR £12.99 I love a spot treatment, especially when I want to double down on a particular area and target a specific aggressive breakout, which this paste is great for. It contains salicylic acid, Kaolin Clay, as well as Camphor and Kojic Kaolin Clay works to extract the impurities to treat the spot's source, while salicylic acid also helps to unclog pores. It has been clinically proven to decrease redness in 30 minutes, and the size of spots in 24 hours, which I can attest to. An aggressive spot on my cheek was visibly reduced in size and soreness when I left this on overnight. BUY NOW FOR £9.99 My skin always needs a moisturiser to keep it hydrated, but one that is safe to wear in the daytime and nighttime without stinging or irritating my skin is a new level of innovation in my eyes. This formula is enriched with 1.5% salicylic acid, bakuchiol and Clearamide Complex. It is oil-free, lightweight in texture, easy to blend, and suitable for those with sensitive skin. BUY NOW FOR £13.99 For those who suffer with 'bacne', uneven skin tone or texture on your back, this body wash is a simple step in your beauty routine to treat it. The formula contains a prebiotic complex to soothe the skin barrier, as well as salicylic acid to reduce any active spots or post-blemish marks. BUY NOW FOR £13.99 Some are put off of wearing body lotion in fear it may clog their pores further, but that's the opposite effect of this body lotion. BYOMA has called on lipid-rich oils, including safflower, jojoba, and soybean to hydrate the skin, while salicylic acid targets the clogged pores. It is lightweight and non-greasy on the skin, but also fast absorbing so you can apply your clothes afterwards without feeling greasy.
