Whilst the Mini Pillow Talk Lip Kit is fresh to market with just five five-star reviews online, the brand's sought-after Pillow Talk Fair lipstick has earned an impressive 4.5 out of five stars from over 85 online reviews. One delighted customer commented: "Finally the colour I've been waiting for from Charlotte Tilbury. It's the perfect shade for my fair complexion and lovely and light without being concealer light, it has become my go to lipstick." Beauty deal of the week YSL Black Opium remains an iconic perfume - and we know where to bag the newest edition for its cheapest price. The YSL BLack Opium Le Parfum offers a more vanilla-heavy fragrance that has been hailed as "intoxicating" in reviews, with a 50ml now half-price at Boots after being dropped from £115 to £57.50. Massive saving aside, it's the cheapest it can be bought for at the moment, as rival retailers Superdrug, Lookfantastic and The Perfume Shop still stock it at full-price. This interpretation of the iconic perfume was only launched in 2022, with its original floral gourmand fragrance still offering its famed notes that include pear accord, green mandarin, orange flower petals, jasmine sambac and cinnamon. However, the iconic coffee accord has been twisted with four different, yet still complimentary, notes of vanilla, which is said to be its most important ingredient, to create an "unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity." Meanwhile, the unique glossy bottle that has been crafted from a precious black stone, with its dazzling glitter emblem at the heart, eludes to the luxuriousness of the fragrance contained within. As for the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Boots shoppers wanting to take advantage of the half-price discount will be glad to hear it has amassed a 4.7 rating from thousands of customers who say it "lasts all day" and "literally turns heads" when it is worn. One five-star review read: "I love the fragrance. I used a lot the first time, not realising how intense it was. It lasts all day and continues to smell great. I literally turn heads when I wear it." Don't miss Boots' half-price discount on the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum (50ml) that is now £57.50, down from £115. Another reviewer penned: "I didn't think this lipstick would suit me but, wow, once I'd applied it, I absolutely fell in love with it. It is a really natural nude-looking lip colour which suits any makeup look and I think it would also suit any skin tone! The packaging is also really sleek and luxurious. "Love this lipstick," someone else remarked. "It gives a lovely pinky/nude colour to my lips with a satin finish. It feels moisturising in my lips, and the colour lasted for over five hours. As usual, the packaging is very chic and classy." One shopper, however, gave the Mini Pillow Talk Lip Kit a lukewarm three-star rating, citing that the hue left them looking "washed out". Their review stated: "I bought this lipstick because the original pillow talk is not a cool shade and it doesn't suit me. "When I got it, it looked nothing like a cool pink shade. It was a creamier, lighter version of the original and it makes me look very washed out. This has been mentioned by others. Giving it a three, only because it feels nice on the lips." Conversely, another customer was thrilled with their new Charlotte Tilbury acquisition, sharing: "The Charlotte Tilbury pillow talk lipstick is a very luxurious brand to buy. "Firstly this colour is so gorgeous, subtle but vibrant at the same time. What I love the most about this product is the smell the lipstick has. It's got a gorgeous scent and it feels so moisturising on my lips. One of my favourite lipsticks to wear." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

'Lovely' three piece Color Wow bundle now less than £8 when shoppers do one thing
Bargain hunting beauty fans have spotted a way to get luxury hair care essentials for a fraction of their usual price with a clever deal stack. Color Wow has become a cult favourite for shoppers looking to keep their hair sleek and shiny no matter the weather, with the iconic Supernatural Spray winning awards and celebrity endorsements aplenty. For shoppers who haven't yet tried it, or want a travel friendly bundle for the summer, the Color Wow Dream Shine Travel Kit is usually priced at £32 but has been reduced to £25.60 at LookFantastic in the brand's huge summer sale. However, there's a way to get it for less than £8 when stacking deals from a money saving website. Deals website TopCashback offers a £15 signup bonus to anyone joining their site as a free member. Shoppers can then get a percentage back on all qualifying spends at thousands of retailers, including LookFantastic. This means TopCashback members who have never shopped at LookFantastic before can effectively snap it up for an impressive £7.40 after the cashback and bonus is paid. Meanwhile existing LookFantastic shoppers will get it for £9.53 after cashback. The set includes three travel-sized products that are compact enough to fit into carry-on luggage without causing any issues on international flights. There's a 75ml bottle of the Color Security Shampoo, enriched with a Japanese amino-fortified complex to minimise the risk of breakage and split ends. As the name implies, it's also safe for coloured hair. But it's not just shampoo in the kit; there's also a 50ml Chris Appleton Money Masque for a bit of holiday pampering. It contains a blend of blue sea kale and sea kelp to reduce visible hair damage while boosting shine levels. Naturally, the set also includes the brand's cult-classic Dream Coat Supernatural Spray in a 50ml travel bottle. This anti-humidity spray requires heat to activate but then shields hair against dullness, flyaways and heat styling while promoting a glass-like shine, reports OK! Travellers looking for a way to keep their tresses in tip-top condition while on holiday are spoiled for choice this summer with hair care kits. Arkive's Head In The Clouds Kit is currently on offer at Boots, currently down to £24. It features shampoo, conditioner, a hair mask and an oil for styling. Elsewhere, Olaplex is also offering a strengthening set for £21, but Color Wow is the only brand that includes their renowned spray in the set. Meanwhile, the Color Wow bundle boasts an impressive average rating of 4.85 out of 5, with the lowest rating being four stars. A shopper commented: "This set is fab, it's great for when you go on holiday and you don't want to take the big bottles. My fave is the Supernatural Spray, it leaves your hair like glass even when it is super humid. I use it all the time now and wouldn't go on holiday without it." Another wrote: "I bought this bundle to try out the shampoo and money mask before committing to full size products. I am already a fan of the Dreamcoat Spray and the other products did not disappoint! The money mask in particular left my hair feeling softer, smoother and healthier after just one use. Definitely worth investing in the full size product." However, as the set is travel-sized, it may not last as long for those with long and thick hair, as one shopper pointed out: "Lovely little kit for a holiday. I have thick hair so doesn't last very long. Products are lovely and make my hair feel soft and sleek." Shoppers can snap up the Color Wow Dream Shine Travel Kit from as little as £7.40 at LookFantastic when using TopCashback.

48p-a-day supplement 'changed my life' by cutting fatigue and stopping 'bloating'
The award-winning Gut Works supplement is currently on offer for 50% off, and customers said they have seen improvement in digestion and overall gut health wellness Gut health has become a hot topic in recent years for those seeking to enhance their overall wellness. It influences bodily functions and overall well-being, including digestion, immune response, and mental health. However, maintaining it through diet alone can be challenging for many, leading some to consider supplements for additional support. One such product is Gut Works, a daily supplement by Dr Vegan, designed to combat bloating, irregular bowel movements, and fatigue. The supplement boasts a potent formula and costs less than 50p per day. This affordable price is currently available as customers can save 50% on their first order with the brand using a special code. Typically priced at £28.99, applying the code GUT50 at checkout reduces the cost to £14.50, equating to just 48p per day. The code is exclusively for new customers and, while it cannot be combined with other discounts, it does offer substantial savings off the RRP, reported the Mirror. Dr Vegan Gut Works Supplements From £14.50 Dr Vegan Buy Now on Dr Vegan Product Description This award-winning supplement blends Psyllium Husk with six scientifically researched strains of live cultures, also known as 'probiotics', and prebiotics. With 50 billion CFU (colony forming units) packed into a single daily capsule, the supplement provides a significant bacterial boost to the digestive system. Maintaining a healthy gut and bowels is crucial for daily comfort and tackling IBS symptoms such as bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, excessive wind and gas, fatigue, reflux, poor sleep, among others. Gut Works offers a solution in the form of a small, daily delayed-release capsule designed to rebalance and repopulate the gut microbiome with active bacteria. While other supplement brands provide various formulations and bacterial strains, focusing more on specific symptoms and potentially at a higher cost, some individuals find swallowing capsules off-putting. For those seeking a liquid alternative, celebrities like Frankie Bridge and Georgia Toffolo have endorsed Symprove. Retailing at £22.99 for 500ml, it's available in an array of flavours including Pineapple or Strawberry and Raspberry. LookFantastic has slashed the price of MyProtein's Gut Gummies by 48%, bringing them down to £16.99. These chewable tablets offer a handy way to bolster digestive health, packed with one billion live cultures and 40mg of vitamin C. As for Dr Vegan's Gut Works, customer reviews are largely positive, boasting a 4.3-star rating based on over 300 reviews. Customers have reported a variety of benefits, from alleviated IBS symptoms and bloating to weight loss and enhanced mood. One satisfied customer, Joanne, shared: "IBS symptoms and life changed forever. I was advised by my gastroenterologist to look at this kind of product and he said if I took it every day without fail my symptoms would improve. I saw this product and decided to give it a go. He was right. I could not visit friends for dinner, had trouble on holiday and my social life was controlled by my stomach... not any more. Life changing." Conal chimed in: "Excellent product. My stomach feels less bloated and with a change of eating habits, I have started to lose weight. I will continue to take Gut Works from now on." Sheila also reported weight loss, stating: "I'm very impressed. My bloating has stopped/disappeared and I've lost 4lb." "Gut works is quite simply magic," wrote another thrilled user. "I had been suffering with IBS and tummy issues for years. Gut works has really changed my life. I didn't think anything could help me but Gut Works has. Thank you Dr Vegan." However, some users found the product less effective. It's crucial to bear in mind that gut health varies from person to person, and what proves miraculous for one might not yield the same results for another. One user expressed: "Didn't work for me. Easy tablet to swallow though and I liked that it was once a day. And, I've just received a lovely note from the company and they have refunded me." Another added: "Used this for 30 days. I'm not sure I noticed much change in my digestion or bloating. I was disappointed." However, the majority of customers have expressed their satisfaction. Another glowing five-star review stated: "Since taking Gut Works my tummy is so much better. Flatter and my trousers fit. I really haven't changed my diet, so it's all down to gut works." Customers can give the Gut Works supplements a go here and utilise the code GUT50 for a 50% discount on their initial order with Dr Vegan.

Shark's 'game-changing' £100 SmoothStyle hair tool now £49 in Amazon sale
The all-in-one heated brush is suitable for all hair types and can be used on wet and dry hair Shoppers looking for a handy styling tool that will dry, shape and smooth their hair all at the same time won't want to miss Amazon's current offer on the Shark SmoothStyle Heated Brush. Originally priced at £99.99, the online giant is offering a fabulous 51% discount for a limited time, bringing the cost down to £49.49. Amazon's offer is one of the cheapest around, beating Shark's sale price of £69.99 and both Boots and LookFantastic's retail price of £79.99. The handy styling tool is an all-in-one hot brush and comb that's suitable for all hair types. It can be used on wet and dry hair to create 'voluminous styles with a smooth, soft finish' while ensuring 'no heat damage'. The gadget offers three air temperatures on Wet Hair Mode, while the Dry Hair Mode will 'smooth, align and shape' the hair for a 'weightless bounce'. For those who try and make their hair last a few days before washing it again, the Shark SmoothStyle is perfect for refreshing locks between washes, with it smoothing out any creases. The heated brush has an integrated ceramic-coated comb that smooths dry hair with lower temperatures, resulting in a 'soft, bouncy, healthy-looking finish' when compared to traditional flat iron hair straighteners. Shoppers wanting to browse other hair styling tools may be interested in the ghd Rise Hot Brush that's currently on sale for £139, reduced from £179. This device has a 32mm barrel that 'creates 2x more volume that lasts all day long'. A more budget-friendly alternative is the Revolution Haircare Mega Blow Out Hot Air Brush Set that currently has a 30% discount at LookFantastic. Now priced at £34.99, this 'versatile' hair dryer and styling tool comes with six different attachments for endless looks. The Shark SmoothStyle Heated Brush has received an overall rating of 4.2 out of five from 490 Amazon customers. One impressed buyer commented: "This versatile styling tool is a game-changer… The hot air technology works well to tame frizz and add shine, and the three temperature settings cater to different hair types. "It's easy to use and perfect for quick touch-ups or full styling, though it might take some practice for beginners. Overall, a fantastic option for sleek, salon-quality results at home." Another delighted shopper shared: "Honestly the best hair tool I have used. I've had other very highly-rated brands that did a good job, but this is another level. The hairdryer in this brush is as powerful as my salon hairdryer and the brush barrel is large so you get the salon blow out effect. "I love the hot comb for days in between washes. My hair honestly looks and feels like I've been to the hairdresser every time I use it. Love, love, love. Easy to use and highly recommend." However, they did go on to note: "I will say it's a little heavier than other hot brushes, but the quality is outstanding. I might get a glove for when I use the comb part as it does get hot." Someone else was unfortunately disappointed with the weight of the Shark SmoothStyle Heated Brush, as the explained: "Although it seemed to have a good effect on my hair, the brush was so heavy I found it very difficult to use, so I returned it." In contrast, a five-star review reads: "I bought this when my last hot brush died. It works well on my fine hair. I use the low drier setting and it is enough for me. What I really like is the smoothing part. It saves me using straighteners - I've used only this since buying it to do my full hair treatment and it leaves my hair shiny. It is heavier than my last brush, but I got used to it very quickly."
