35 Trendy Beauty Products That Actually Work
Cosrx's Snail Mucin Repairing Essence reviewers love for the extra boost of hydration it gives their skin, helping clear up acne, inflammation, peeling, fine lines, and even eczema! Stop being ~sluggish~ about investing in your skincare routine and get this on your face. Fast. Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream formulated with cupuaçu butter, coconut oil, and açai oil to give your skin a powerful dose of hydration. It'll also wake up and temporarily tighten your skin with the same stuff you use to become awake and alert for the That's right, our skin enjoys the stuff as much as the rest of us. This smells like vanilla and caramel, which means it's basically a latte for your skin. Delicious. Gold Bond's firming neck and chest cream — whether you've noticed your neck skin practically hanging on for dear life thanks to that darn gravitational pull or find your décolletage creased in the center from side sleeping, the glycerin and aloe in this formula can give that delicate skin some much-needed hydration, while the salicylic acid can gently exfoliate dead skin cells. Reviewers say patience is worth it with this one, so give your body time to soak it all in and enjoy those results! Cerave eye repair cream, which is cooked up with their famous blend of ceramides (a skincare "secret sauce" if you will) and a healthy dose of hyaluronic acid to boost hydration and niacinamide to help tighten and brighten the appearance of skin. If you're revitalizing your skincare routine, add this to the mix and reduce the appearance of dark circles, under-eye puffiness, *and* fine lines. ~Eye~ love to see it. A paraben-free self-tanner with a mousse texture so you can apply the product evenly (unlike thicker lotions that leave distinct lines behind). Use this if you'd rather not look like you spent all winter hibernating in a cave. A retinol body lotion — sure, retinol is great for your face, but there's a whole *body* of skin it can help out! This particularly dreamy, creamy formula helps promote skin cell turnover using retinol, while the ferulic acid firms skin to promote natural skin tightening. Lumify Eye Drops, because having irritated red eyes is one of those frustrating conditions that is always awkward to explain away. No, I wasn't crying. My eyes are that. This redness-reducing eye drop uses brimonidine tartrate to whiten your eyes for up to eight hours. (And the review photos are suuuper satisfying — with over 27,000 reviewers shouting "5 stars!") A 4-in-1 makeup pencil (Live Tinted's Huestick Corrector) for your eyes, lips, and cheeks. First, use this before applying foundation to neutralize dark circles. Once that foundation is on you can reapply this as a buildable lip color, eyeshadow, or blush. I love LOVE a makeup product that does it all. The Face Shop's facial foaming cleanser formulated with rice water to help brighten, cleanse, moisturize, and remove your makeup all at once. If you like the idea of having *one* skincare product that does it belongs in your bathroom. A MySmile teeth whitening kit — an enamel-safe system designed specifically for sensitive teeth that claims to brighten your smile up to 10 shades with consistent use. Go ahead, get dentist-worthy white teeth at a fraction of the cost. I dare you. P.S. The kit uses carbamide peroxide gel and a waterproof LED light to brighten your smile in zippy quick 10-minute sessions. Save *so much* time and money by doing this at home! A bottle of Bio-Oil, beloved by many a skin-having human, made with a powerful blend of moisturizing oils and vitamins that'll aid in fadin' scars you'd rather have bippity-boppity-boop off your body. A root touchup powder great for folks with fine hair who would like the appearance of a fuller hairline *and* for anyone who wants to take longer breaks between coloring appointments. This includes a sponge for applying the powder — just rub it directly onto your hair. I learned about this product when looking for solutions for postpartum hair loss and was awed that this had over 18,000 5-star reviews. Sold. A Denman Hair Brush designed with bristles specifically spaced to detangle and shape curls that may otherwise feel frazzled and look undefined. Hit the snooze button and save time in the mornings with this brush by your side. A hyaluronic acid serum — this can save your dry skin thanks to its *intense* hydrating properties that improve a dry complexion's softness, smoothness, and ability to retain moisture. I feel soothed just thinking about it. Cicapair Tiger Grass Color Correcting Treatment to help you embrace color theory with confidence. Take it from someone with skin the color of printer paper — nothing helps reduce redness better than a touch of green! This lightly tinted cream is designed to combat that blotchy redness while protecting your skin from the sun with a useful daily SPF 50. A Revlon volcanic stone face roller that'll absorb excess oil on your face as you swipe it away *without* ruining your makeup. Now that this exists, there's no better product to have in your bag when the summer sun brings back your extra oily skin. Oil blotting sheets WISH they were this sexy. Keep your makeup looking great all day with this OG TikTok beauty sensation. Catrice "Instant Awake" Under Eye Brightener (made with a *chef's kiss* mix of hydraulic acid and shea butter) which became a knockout success once reviewers started raving en mass about the product's instant invisible coverage. If you're looking for quick and easy results that suggest you don't even require come to the right brightener. Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil with the most impressive review photos I've seen in my little life! Reviewers swear up and down over how well this erases blackheads and sebaceous filaments. Use this as the first step of your cleansing routine, and then just rinse with water. Watch your blackheads disappear so quickly that they won't even have a chance to say goodbye. Aww, sad. A set of collagen-infused forehead patches for folks looking to improve their skin's elasticity with a *chef's kiss* hydrating formula. The mix of aloe, collagen, and vitamin E is a true treat for sun-damaged, dry, and aging skin. Whether you throw these on before bed and let your skin soak up that silky goodness for a full eight hours or simply have an hour to spare in the a.m. — these are designed for great results on your schedule. An E.l.f. Camo Liquid Blush — a blendable and buildable blush (say that five times fast) with a lightweight formula and a powerful pigment. If you've worked hard on your glass skin technique, finish off your routine with a blush that's dewy and glossy to stay looking as smooth as glass. A brilliant biotin shampoo (with over 34,000 5-star reviews!!) so you can enjoy the feeling of fuller hair and a nourished scalp. This is sulfate-free and won't give your hair greasy, heavy buildup *but* the biotin can strengthen your strands. The one-two punch of this particular shampoo comes from the added rosemary and coconut oil — which both stimulate and moisturize the scalp aiding in overall hair health. Good Molecules Yerba Mate Wake Up Eye Gel that'll be beloved by people who drink up yerba mate like it's water from the actual fountain of youth. And that's not the only powerful ingredient this gel has to offer! It also boasts three unique forms of hyaluronic acid to moisturize and revitalize the skin under your eyes. There are no dark circles here, my dear! An eye primer with an easy-as-pie application process, just use your ring finger to apply a pea-sized amount of the product onto clean, dry eyelids. After 30 seconds, it should be dry and ready for your makeup! This stuff is heaven-sent for anyone who spends way too much time on their smokey eye to have it sweat off the minute they hit the dance floor. Maybelline's Fit Me Matte foundation — this liquid, oil-free foundation is sure to satisfy folks with oily skin as it covers pores and creates a smooth base *without* irritating your skin. BTW, this product is available in a whopping 40 SHADES, so it's got your face covered. Literally. A 10% niacinamide serum for folks who fill their medicine cabinet with the very best K-beauty has to offer. This includes 4% tranexamic acid and 2% arbutin for super smooth skin. With consistent use, you'll notice your skin looking smooth and dewey. And if you, like me, prefer fragrance-free — this non-sticky and non-scented formula is for you! A vegan ingrown hair oil sure to save the day (and your bikini line) if shaving on sensitive parts of your body leads to inflammation and breakouts that are more bothersome than the hair was. Not only does it address that inflammation, but the spiffy mix of jojoba and grapeseed oil moisturizes and softens your skin to keep it nourished. Swimsuit season, here we come! Speaking of breakouts, Butt Acne Treatment Cream is gonna be a great addition to the (rear) end of your beauty routine. This is designed for all skin types with a clean tea tree oil to help prevent breakouts, get rid of bacteria, and clear up folliculitis. A bottle of Elizavecca hair treatment which, like Olaplex, has repairing properties like collagen and protein extracts to aid in hair health. Apply this after you shampoo, let it sit for 5 minutes (where you can race through a shave or a song in the shower — you do you), and then rinse it out. Stronger hair care, here we come! Bio-Collagen's Real Deep sheet mask so you can treat yourself to a rejuvenating facial while you sleep. The mix of hydrating hyaluronic acid, pore-minimizing collagen, and probiotics work together while you're resting to protect and heal your skin from the inside out. And don't worry about your pillowcase. This product is a professional. It's transfer-resistant — no mess included. Lottabody's Coconut Oil Foaming Curl Mousse worth getting into your haircare kit before summer humidity starts its attack on our curls again this year. If you want voluminous curls without a hint of frizz, then this is the mousse for you! A nail concealer with a brilliant blend of biotin and keratin to save your nails from yourself — years of acrylics and gel manicures were murder on your cuticles. Get yourself a nail polish that nourishes! Plus, If you like a clean, uniform look, you're sure to love the sheer hint of pink color this has. E.l.f. Halo Glow Liquid Filter for achieving the same dewy no makeup-makeup effect of Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter (but at a price that doesn't make you sweat). This also has a healthy dose of hydrating hyaluronic acid your skin is gonna be glad to drink in every day. And E.l.f's Lash Xtndr Tubing Mascara so you can finally have the thick, full lashes you've dreamed of, even if your flimsy natural lashes hardly hold up standard mascaras. This uses a unique "tubing" formula that boasts being smudge-free. And if you have fragile lashes? This can easily wipe clean! It's also available in *brown* which is a huge deal for folks with warm hair colors and blonde lashes, as it doesn't clash with your natural coloring (speaking for my own red-headed self here). A RobeCurls heatless hair curler — this satin-covered rod is designed to curl your hair while you sleep, and it's damage-free! Skip the heat tools and just wrap damp hair around the plush curler at night. Then FALL ASLEEP, and it'll do the rest. Wake up, pull this outta your hair, and enjoy your blowout-worthy bouncy curls. A tattoo aftercare salve that'll make both colored and monochrome tattoos look out-of-this-world lovely. This soothes, protects, and enhances the look of your ink, both fresh and faded.

51 Products You Won't Just "Normal" Like, You'll *Reallllllllyyyy* Like
A set of breathable seamless thongs specifically loved by several reviewers who "never wear" thongs and "hate" thongs. Folks say these are comfortable all day *and* claim they're comparable to (and even better than!) brands like Skims and Victoria's Secret. I'm sold. Like, literally. Buying now. A stunning minimizer bra with the power to basically give you a surgery-free breast reduction with some ultimate seduction. The comfortable sheer mesh and lace details are oh-so-sexy that, despite the impressive results when worn under shirts, you may find yourself too distracted looking at your gorgeous shelf (oops, I mean, self) to wanna put clothes on over it. Reviewers rave about the bra's ability to support breasts while minimizing bulk without the awkward separating and squishing that often result from lesser bras. A Cup Cozy Pillow that'll stay upright beside you on the sofa and keep your remotes, snacks, and drinks at the ready while your friends spend precious moments during your movie marathon getting up and trotting around the place in search of sustenance — the fools! A set of limited edition wildflower Band-Aids — I don't care how old you are, if your Band-Aids are cute, your cuts and scrapes hurt less and heal faster. I don't know the science behind it, but it's definitely sound. And this flexible fabric floral collection? It's sure to work twice as well. Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream formulated with cupuaçu butter, coconut oil, and açai oil to give your skin a powerful dose of hydration. It'll also wake up and temporarily tighten your skin with the same stuff you use to become awake and alert for the That's right, our skin enjoys the stuff as much as the rest of us. This smells like vanilla and caramel, which means it's basically a latte for your skin. Delicious. A Java Sock that'll do the two most important things for your beloved iced coffees ( drinks. I know people drink other drinks!) 1) It'll keep that caramel almond milk cold brew cold for ages — hours, according to reviewers — and 2) It'll keep your drink from sweating into your cupholder or all over your desk. It's a cruel twist of fate that iced coffee sweats as much as we do in the spring and summer. A seat gap filler to save your phone, keys, and french fries from certain doom. This simple stuffer has over 50,000 5-star reviews, so feel free to just gift this to your friends after you get one yourself. It's clearly a hit! SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes with a clinical strength formula that'll last up to seven days (!!!) for folks who get seasonal depression whenever the sun has them sweatin' it for no good reason. A Denman Hair Brush designed with bristles specifically spaced to detangle and shape curls that may otherwise feel frazzled and look undefined. Hit the snooze button and save time in the mornings with this brush by your side. A "dog bed for humans" — this perfectly plush piece of furniture is made for dog people who want to be *dog* people. Your friends (and their pets) are gonna be begging you to scoot over and make room. A set of Mellanni extra soft cooling bedsheets reviewers say feel like sleeping at a luxurious hotel. If you've found falling asleep a chore because of tossing, turning, and *sweating* at night then treat yourself to these cult-favorite sheets!

One side is a classic cotton and the other side has an ~Arc-Chill~ fabric that's literally cool to the touch. Ahem, cool.

If you find yourself waking up to flip to the cool side of the pillow over and over at night, the time has come to get these in your life. Sleep well! A personalized book stamp that'll have all your book club buddies oohing and awwing over your impressive library. Plus, they'll never forget when they borrow a book from *you* ever again! A cult-fave supportive seamless compressive bodysuit for budget-focused consumers who love *everything* about the similar Skims version, aside from the price. And at a price this nice, you should probably get more than one. It's for the best. A travel brush with a hidden compartment sure to be looked upon with envy by your overpacked travel buddies as they desperately try to find some open space on the counter of your hotel bathroom. Trying to fit seven people in two rooms has not worked out as well as your bachelorette party thought it would. But hey, *you've* got a brush with enough room for toothpaste and tampons! You're doing great. A set of "wine wands" for cheap-box-wine-loving fiends who don't want their boozy gossip nights turning into hungover mornings. Simply swish these in a glass of wine, and in three minutes, those pesky sulfates and histamines will be removed. They've become hangover-free drinks thanks to these real-life magic wands. A paper incense tin to add a little pocket-sized luxury to your life. Inside the wrapped tin is a decorative paper envelope filled with 48 teeny tiny incense papers. To use, clip one piece of paper to the tin and wait as it burns (for about 5 minutes). After that, the soothing smell should fill your space for up to a few hours. A fruit tart cat bed with removable fruits and a cushioned crust that'll make your friends ~berry~ jealous of your cat (your REAL best friend). A Y2K-inspired cargo mini skirt for anyone whose heart strings are directly tied to bottoms with a drawstring (ahhh, the comfort!).

A timeless tennis bracelet made with 14K gold plated cubic zirconia that's sure to look like you put down some serious $$$ on Swarovski, which can stay our little secret. A bottle of *extra strength* Lee Beauty Callus Remover for tackling the gnarliest of cracked calluses using a formula that's both powerful and protective of extra aching skin. The reviewer below recommends this for runners, as it's able to manage painful calluses without taking away from the added protection they provide for active feet. A pack of wall plant clips (a whopping SIXTY of them, in fact) sure to delight pothos-lovers who have vines wrapped around every nook and cranny of their living room, just waiting for the day when they can spread out around the room. These gentle clips are paint-safe and sticky on the back, so you can display vines without using nails or aesthetic-killing clips. An exfoliating mitten lots of folks love for preventing ingrown hairs, reducing KP, and smoothing out their skin before applying tanning lotion. I personally love using an exfoliating mitt in the summer after a day covered in sunscreen and sand. There's no better way to get rid of that goop! A refillable roll-on sponge sunscreen applicator sure to make putting on sunscreen (both on your kids *and* on yourself) less of a chore. This goes on fast and blends in easily – no mess required! Families and other folks who look like *dweebs* slathering on sunscreen are sure to look at your quick application with envy. A pair of reusable silicone nipple covers designed for all the summer dresses that feel like they're ruined by a bra. And I mean *summer* dresses — these are totally waterproof, so go ahead and enjoy the heat! There will be no need to ~sweat it~ in these. A jar of The Pink Stuff (the internet's favorite cleaning product) that'll clean everything from pots and pans to blotches in your bathtub. Move over firefighters, I want a calendar of THIS sexy stuff and its shiny results. Cerave eye repair cream, which is cooked up with their famous blend of ceramides (a skincare "secret sauce" if you will) and a healthy dose of hyaluronic acid to boost hydration and niacinamide to help tighten and brighten the appearance of skin. If you're revitalizing your skincare routine, add this to the mix and reduce the appearance of dark circles, under-eye puffiness, *and* fine lines. ~Eye~ love to see it. A jealousy-inducing Melissa & Doug ice cream counter — it'll be tons of fun to play ice cream shop with your kids, for sure, but they *always* get to be the ice cream maker! When is it gonna be YOUR turn to scoop the ice cream cones?! It looks so fun! A bag of citrusy Liquid I.V. Hydration packets, with three times the electrolytes of a typical sports drink, great for packing on long hikes, recovering after a run, and keeping close during long days strolling in the sun. Honestly, you may just wanna keep these in your bag 24/7. An oscillating tower fan that has six speeds (we're talkin' up to 24 feet per second velocity), three modes, and a surprisingly quiet design despite its power. One reviewer nicknamed this "THE GLACIER" and gushed about it being "better than your air conditioner." If you're intimidated by installing an A.C. in your fourth-floor gonna be a big fan of this gadget. Anua Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil with the most impressive review photos I've seen in my little life! Reviewers swear up and down over how well this erases blackheads and sebaceous filaments. Use this as the first step of your cleansing routine, and then just rinse with water. Watch your blackheads disappear so quickly they won't even have a chance to say goodbye. Aww, sad. A versatile veggie chopper that'll help you prep (and cleanup!) with speed that feels simply nonsensical. The interchangeable blades just pop out, then you'll just throw them right into the dishwasher! A tennis skort with a dreamy four-way stretch and moisture-wicking material for folks who spend the summer desperate to find outfits that won't be drenched in sweat at the end of the day. This precious piece has chic side slits, a high-rise waistband, and two hidden pockets. When I tell you I'm buying this in every color and wearing it all summer me (I already own it in black). A portable air compressor so small and mighty it seems like something Mary Poppins would whip out of her magic carpet bag. If your tire deflates somewhere inconvenient, this thing is gonna be the roadside nanny you didn't know you needed. It has a real-time pressure monitor to inflate flat car and bike tires on the go. It even has a built-in LED light you can use at night and boasts a one-minute inflation, so you don't have to worry about being stuck on the side of the road too long. A Bio-Oil, beloved by many a skin-having human, made with a powerful blend of moisturizing oils and vitamins that'll aid in fadin' scars you'd rather have bippity-boppity-boop off your body. A TBH *too* nice Tineco 2-in-1 cordless vacuum and mop created to both vacuum and mop at the same time. Unlike our old dummy mops, this robot has a separate tank that stores the dirty water, and it retains 90% of the stuff, so your floors will be clean and dry in just minutes. A set of Wonder Hangers so you can stack outfits, categories, or even *colors* of clothes with a vertical system, using up closet space in the most efficient (and A-type-friendly) way possible. A tomato table lamp, which is less than half the cost of the Urban Outfitter's version (which is always sold out), and reviewers think it's even better! This is sure to ~produce~ some smiles from everyone who sits in your living room! A ChomChom pet hair remover roller that'll pick up fur and lock it inside the roller so that cleanup is a breeze and it doesn't lose its effectiveness with heavy use.

This gadget has bristles that retract so you can sweep away all the pet hair you just brushed right into the trash. Or your knitting you're into crafts. A cruelty-free butter gloss for shiny (and not sticky!) lips. This silky-smooth formula is available in all sorts of shades (from clear to bright red) so go ahead — get a collection. A bedside bassinet to place right beside you, keeping your little one safe and snug *and* keeping them at arm's reach during late night falling back asleep easier on everyone. A high pressure rainfall showerhead with a stainless-steel finish that's sleek and a rainwater feature that's gonna be ooh-so-soothing. A pack of stain-removing, nontoxic cleaning cups to clean out your Keurig's innards once your coffee starts tasting a little less bold and a little more bleh. A nongreasy hair wax stick with a whopping 29,000 5-star reviews — a lightweight solution for anyone who wants smooth edges and slick buns that'll last all dang day. COSRX's Snail Mucin Repairing Essence formulated with a shocking (aaand effective) 96% snail sludge that's harvested in a *100%* ethical and environmentally friendly way. Don't be ~sluggish~ about this stuff, reviewers say it's great for adding hydration and giving your skin a lil' life! A scrunchie/towel hybrid that can help your hair dry faster without any heat tools! Reviewers love this as a shower-and-go solution when they have to leave the house with wet hair.

This soothes, protects, and enhances the look of your ink, both fresh and faded.

Get a free Sol de Janeiro tote bag with exclusive Space NK bundle worth over £45
This £45 Sol de Janeiro gift set comes with cult-fave minis and a beach-ready tote you'll use all summer, thanks to an exclusive bundle from Space NK Nothing screams summer more than a Sol de Janeiro body mist and Bum Bum cream, and now with an exclusive Space NK gift set, you can grab both of these items, plus a mini body oil and canvas tote bag. The set in question is the Sol de Janeiro The Sol Tote + Body Essentials, priced at £45. And what's included is: 1x Canvas Mini Bag, 1x Brazilian Bum Bum Cream 50ml, 1x Firmeza Body Oil 12ml, 1x Cheirosa 62 Perfume Mist 90ml. The price alone of the Cheirosa Mist and Bum Bum cream would equal to just under £45, so you're essentially getting the minitarure tote bag (which is adorable by the way) plus a miniature body oil for no extra cost. And it's not the only bargain bundle we've spotted this week. Murad's Retinol Heroes Set, usually £142, is now available for £63.90 for a limited time in a LookFantastic offer. While Next's limited-edition Father's Day Beauty Box, worth £88, is packed with premium self-care essentials from brands like Percy & Reed, Rituals, Aromatherapy Associates and more for £22. So what exactly is the scent of the body mist in Sol de Janeiro's set? It's number 62, a rich and sweet blend of pistachio, jasmine, and salted caramel, which the brand says is supposed to transport you to a hot, sunny day on the glorious coast of Rio. The cult-favourite Bum Bum Cream ('boom boom' in Brazil!) is also included in this summer set. Packed with guaraná, cupuaçu butter, coconut and açaí oils, it hydrates deeply while helping skin feel firmer and super soft. And like the Cheirosa mist, the scent is a dreamy mix of pistachio, salted caramel and vanilla. It's literally a holiday in a tub. Plus if you're a new customer to Space NK, you can actually nab this summer-ready set for £36 by using the code FIRST20 at checkout for 20% off your order.

'I saved £170 on holiday toiletries bagging £220 worth of beauty for £50'
Heading off on holiday soon, shopping writer Lucy Addicott found a way to sort her summer skincare and makeup for a fraction of the price For me, stocking up on summer-ready skincare and makeup is all part of the fun of going on holiday, but after navigating paying for flights, travel insurance and luggage fees, it can soon start to add up. With SPF, after-sun and moisturiser on my must-have list, I found an impressive way to bag all these items and more, saving £170. OK! Beauty Box, a beauty subscription service, have just launched a one-off summer beauty box packed with goodies worth over £220. Having received mine in the post, I was delighted to discover it contains 12 products, with eight of them being full sized. The box is priced at £49.99, so after a quick calculation, each item essentially comes in at £4.16 each. When you consider that just one of the products (the Mudmasky Glow-Up Cleanser) costs £40 alone, you're effectively getting ten products for free. And, if you can save money off your toiletries, that means more in the budget for cocktails, right? This beauty box is filled with products from stand-out brands including Bondi Sands, Trinny London, Hello Sunday and more, but the first item that caught my eye had to be the Nuxe multi-purpose dry oil for your face, body and oil. The travel size bottle is the ideal size for taking away as a little goes a long way. It leaves your skin with the most glorious shimmer and as it smells lovely and floral, it doubles up as a body scent, too. I would warn however that the applicator is a little tricky to use so be careful to not overpour and waste any of the product. Speaking of summery scents, the Bondi Sands Body Moisturiser enriched with vitamin E and jojoba has a tropical rum fragrance. I was a little wary at first that I might end up smelling too much like a Pina Colada, but the lotion has a subtle pineapple scent which is really pleasant. I personally use a gradual tan and the moisturiser has been specifically formulated to help prolong the life of your tan and be self-tan friendly. If you don't use self-tanner, it is still a hydrating, lightweight moisturiser that leaves skin smooth and radiant. If you're a fan of the summery scent from the best-loved Sol de Janiero Brazilian Bum Bum Cream, shoppers can find it included in the LookFantastic The Summer Heroes Edit. The box is worth more than £150, retailing for £45, and includes items from ESPA, Eucerin, Iconic London, Caudalie and more. Next up in the OK! Summer Beauty Box are two makeup products that work wonderfully in union - Trinny London's Golden Glow Bronzer and the Bellapierre All Eyes On You Eyeshadow Palette. Both are worth £25 individually, so the subscription is worth getting for just these two items alone, and they are ideal for a golden goddess summer beauty look. I applied the bronzer across my nose, forehead and the tops of my cheekbones and it gave me a sun-kissed finish. The eyeshadow quad allowed me to create a bronzed, smokey eye look, however, I could have done with a pale brown matte shade in the selection. I was pleasantly surprised to find removing the glitter eyeshadow quick and easy. Worth £20, the Hello Sunday The Take-Out One Invisible Sun Stick SPF30 really intrigued me as I'd never used a clear sunscreen product before. While I'm yet to test it out in high temperatures, I did pop it on for a sunny day in the UK and it felt lightweight and non-sticky. It'll be perfect for topping up areas prone to burning on holiday, such as the tops of shoulders and on the face. What's inside the OK! Summer Beauty Box?

Inside, expect delights from brands such as No7, Estee Lauder and Philip Kingsley. I would have liked to see a lip product in the OK! Beauty Box, however, I found the variation of products you receive meant I could stock up on most of my summer beauty essentials such as SPF, after-sun, moisturiser, body glow and more, in one. Each product felt really luxurious to use, so even testing them out at home I felt like I was already on holiday. With my travel toiletries bag now packed with Trinny London, Bondi Sands and Nuxe for less than £50, I feel ready to jet off in style.
