EARLY OUTFITS: Looking for outfits in advance gives you plenty of time to find a formal outfit for your child. Renting a dress or suit is typically cheaper than buying new. You could try John Lewis rental, where dress hire starts at less than £30. Suit jacket are available from around £33.

Scour Facebook marketplace or Vinted and eBay. Search by brands and be specific as possible to find what you want. RAD RIDE: Arriving at the prom in a flash ride is all part of the experience. Try asking for a favour from any friends or family with a cool car to see if they'll play chauffeur. Book the Lux ride through taxi app Uber for another option. Only selected top cars such as Mercedes, BMW and Jaguars will come through the service. You can expect a ride that would usually cost around £10 to come in at around £30 instead when booked on the spot. Find a friend to refer you if you haven't used the app before and you'll save up to £5 your first five rides. GLAM UP: Getting hair and make-up done is a fun way to get ready for a prom. Why not watch a few make-up tutorials to try your hand at applying all the beauty essentials? Just get in a few practice sessions beforehand. Or on the day, head to a department store where make- up counters are often able to apply make-up professionally. Ask around at hairdressers if they need models for up-dos for a discounted service.

Here's why you should include peptides in your beauty routine ASAP
The Curator independently decides what topics and products we feature. When you purchase an item through our links, we may earn a commission. Promotions and products are subject to availability and retailer terms. Of all the buzzy skincare ingredients that promise a plump, glow-y visage–think collagen, vitamin C, hyaluronic acid–peptides are emerging as a standout for their multitasking magic. So, what exactly are peptides? In simple terms, they are short chains of amino acids–the building blocks of proteins like collagen and elastin–that help keep your skin firm and smooth. When applied topically, they send signals to your skin to kickstart its natural repair processes, boosting collagen production and reinforcing the skin barrier. Translation: fewer fine lines, improved texture and a complexion that looks a little more alive–all thanks to one hero ingredient. Even better–peptides are now making waves in hair care, too, promoting growth and strength via microcirculation. Story continues below advertisement If peptides haven't yet found a spot in your routine, consider this your cue. Ahead, eight peptide-infused beauty picks that deserve a spot on your vanity.

I don't know what will. Not only is this case drop-dead gorgeous, but it also protects your phone from scratches, falls, and bumps. L'Oreal's Lumi Glotion — this illuminating moisturizer enhances your skin's natural glow with its shimmering color tint so you can achieve that ~sun-kissed~ look without having to roast in the heat for hours. Reviewers say it's just like the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops — and maybe even better! Holographic nail polish that'll make your nails shine almost as bright as you. It may not be gel polish, but reviewers swear it lasts a reaaally long time and say it's even better than OPI and Essie! Or a top-rated set of jelly gel nail polishes because getting a gel mani-pedi every other week isn't too kind on your wallet. Luckily for you (and your hard-earned money), reviewers say these give salon-quality nails. If you think about it, buying all the DIY materials basically costs the same as visiting a nail salon ONCE — boom, logic. OR!!! Glamnetic press-on nails if you love getting a full set, but those numbers have really been adding up (*cries in a $20 tip*). These press-ons look super-duper natural, are extremely durable, and last two weeks! They also come in so many cute designs that, let's be honest, most salons can't even perfect. After using these, reviewers say they'll never go back to the salon again! A pair of cherry earrings because cherries are arguably the most aesthetically pleasing fruit and deserve to be shown off. Plus, reviewers love how lightweight and comfortable these are, so you can wear 'em all day, every day! And a cherry bag charm — IMHO, loving anything cherry-related is a character trait and you should be proud of it. This adorable little charm is very similar to the $95 Coach one and, according to reviewers, feels good quality with a nice weight to it — just at a much more affordable price. You can clip it to your handbag or keys and make life a little more ~cheery~. A pair of lightweight legging-style joggers perfect for lounging around, running any casual activity because they're just that comfy. They feature two pockets to store your phone, wallet, and keys, and reviewers can't help but compare them to Lululemon's Align joggers. And a cropped tank with padding that looks EXACTLY like the Lululemon Align tank top — I'm actually shook! It has the same neckline *and* removable padding, and it's won over 29,000+ 5-star reviewers with its comfort and support. Essence's Lash Princess mascara that enhances your beautiful lashes with its cone-shaped fiber brush — with such dramatic (+ clump-free) results, you won't need extensions or falsies ever again. Reviewers swear it delivers the same (if not better) results as name-brand mascaras for less than $5 — the 261,000+ 5-star ratings don't lie! A set of mini cheese boards so each one of your guests can have their own charcuterie board during wine night. A pair of constellation tassel earrings that'll be the *star* of your outfit. You can also take off the fringe backs when you want a little less ~bling bling~. A vintage-inspired crescent bag because who isn't a sucker for anything vintage. Don't be fooled by its size — one reviewer said it was able to hold their phone, wallet, and lip gloss! And a sophisticated laptop tote bag that is very versatile so you can strut in style and have everything you need at the same time. A spandex-blend slip maxi dress because wouldn't it be nice to look dressy but stay comfy at the same time? Thanks to this Skims lookalike, you can! Reviewers *love* how the material is just as soft as that brand's, and some even say it's better! An Ikea bag coin purse that's just absolutely iconic. Forget the LV or Gucci wallet, this is really all you'll ever need. A moisturizing TirTir milk toner if your skin needs a little hydration boost before moisturizing or putting on makeup. It's formulated with chamomile, which reduces redness and irritation, and rice bran extracts to help even skin tone and enhance brightness. And the bestselling Tirtir foundation — if you've been looking for a foundation that doesn't crack, cake, or crease, you can stop your search because this bb is the one! It lasts up to 72 hours, provides buildable coverage, and conceals redness, blemishes, and dark circles. Plus, the hibiscus and red propolis extracts enhance skin elasticity, aka giving you that desirable "glass skin" effect. A vintage-inspired bustier that features a V-cut hem and gorgeous neckline. It comes in so many different eye-catching colors, so good luck trying to choose just one! A layered necklace set to take any outfit from drab to fab. They're also perfect for stacking since they come separated, so you can add on other pieces, too! Reviewers rave about the quality at this price and say they don't tarnish. Or an initial necklace that's just plain adorable. If you're looking for a subtle, everyday piece of jewelry, my friend, this is for you. Kahi Wrinkle Bounce Hydrating Multi-Balm if you crave that "post-shower feeling" and ✨ glow ✨. This K-beauty product deserves a spot in your arsenal ASAP because it combines the power of lip balm, eye cream, primer, and MORE — what?! Its salmon complex and collagen formula helps reduce fine lines and can keep your skin hydrated for 48 hours. OK, fine, I've convinced myself to buy one. A set of cowboy straw toppers that'll make you want to belt out "workin' 9 to 5 🤠" because that's what you do every. single. day. You totally deserve to treat yourself to these hats that help protect the tip of your straw from germs. A pack of 18 pearly hair barrettes to add some bling bling to your hair and give your 'fit an elegant touch. 18 clips for less than $10? What a steal! A floral maxi dress that's just drop. dead. gorgeous. With such an adorable print and elegant hem, don't be surprised when you start getting tons of compliments as you stroll around the vineyard minding your own business — it's just that stunning. A kit containing 600 nail art charms so you don't have to spend $5 per sticker at the salon. Instead, you can jazz your nails up with pearls, bows, and more without spending a pretty penny! A duck tote bag that's so honkin' cute and worthy of being your everyday bag. It's big enough to fit your laptop and tablet or even to go grocery shopping with. Plus, the straps are adjustable so you can tailor it to your desired length! A painless, mint-flavored teeth-whitening pen to help remove years of staining, and it takes only 30 seconds to apply! Plus, they won't cause sensitivity like other options (*cough* Crest Whitestrips) can. Your teeth will become so white, you'll never want to stop smiling — c'mon, show off those all-natural veneers. A cocktail ring set that'll probably strike up so much conversation because it's just plain gorgeous, shiny, jaw-dropping, bling-bling — shall I keep going? Nyx Brow Glue so you can sculpt your arches to craft your desired shape, volume, and texture. From natural to feathered brows, you can achieve anything with this baby. It doesn't get tacky or flaky like other glues *and* holds up well against sweat! A spray bottle of quick-dry hair and body glitter capable of turning you into a fairy princess because you'll be ✨ shimmering ✨ from head to toe. Reviewers also love that it washes off easily — which, for glitter, is basically unheard of.

We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · If you're ready to hear "you look absolutely fab" or "oooh, that's adorable," all the time, then you have come to the right place. 1. A glossy phone case with wavy edges, stunning flowers, and a gorgeous pearl-like finish. If this doesn't make you scream, "OMG, that's absolutely delightful and I need it now!" I don't know what will. Not only is this case drop-dead gorgeous, but it also protects your phone from scratches, falls, and bumps. See it on TikTok! Promising reviews: "Love the floral detail on this case. The iridescent color is beautiful and I loved the scallop trim! Phone is easy to grip, the buttons are easy to access, and overall this is a fun floral case. 🌸" — Rmarie "I drop my phone ALL the time, and this case truly has surprised me in being protective! I would say I actually drop my phone LESS now because the material of the case isn't as slippery as some, and it also has the waves on the side to act as extra grips for your fingers. The color and design are gorgeous! I probably get more compliments on this case than any other phone case I have ever purchased." — Sarah Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 11 colors and 17 sizes for iPhone; also available for Samsung Galaxy 24 and 24 Ultra). 2. L'Oreal's Lumi Glotion — this illuminating moisturizer enhances your skin's natural glow with its shimmering color tint so you can achieve that ~sun-kissed~ look. Reviewers say it's just like the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops — and maybe even better! Check out a TikTok of it in action! Promising review:"This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I apply after moisturizer and makeup, highlighting under my eyes and brow bones. Not too sparkly, just makes me look like I've had enough coffee. Seems to last through hot and sweaty Florida days, so that's a plus. I've tried other luminizers, and for me they are usually too sparkly or weirdly colored. I tried an $$ Glossier one that remained strangely sticky the whole time it was on my skin. I will purchase again!" — DLW Get it from Amazon for $13.95 (available in five shades). 3. Holographic nail polish that'll make your nails shine almost as bright as you. It may not be gel polish, but reviewers swear it lasts a reaaally long time and say it's even better than OPI and Essie! After looking at all these reviewer photos, I'm so tempted to add every color to my cart. Promising review: "I don't know who I was kidding when I intended to start doing my own nails except once a month because I could save $. Once I found the brand ILNP that actually stays on my nails very well and lasts a long time, I decided to explore colors AND shades. I used to only by OPI, but this brand IS BETTER and the color choices are endless. So much for savings. I have 7 bottles so far, 3 on the way, and about 5 on the shopping list - all in the past month! 🤷🏻♀️🤣" — Tara Anderson Get it from Amazon for $12.50 (available in a variety of colors and in multipacks) 4. Or a top-rated set of jelly gel nail polishes because getting a gel mani-pedi every other week isn't too kind on your wallet. Luckily for you (and your hard-earned money), reviewers say these give salon-quality nails. If you think about it, buying all the DIY materials basically costs the same as visiting a nail salon ONCE — boom, logic. The set includes six polishes. If you don't have a curing UV lamp, be sure to grab one! You can also buy a set of base and top coats if needed. Promising reviews:"My new favorite polish. I recently started doing my nails at home and this set has been my go-to for my last four sets. Gives just enough color with one or two coats and still a little transparent. Love them!" — JazzieBee "This nail polish is absolutely stunning! It gives the perfect glossy, jelly, shiny pink. I've gotten so many compliments on my nails using these colors. I love them!" — Max_C Get it from Amazon for $9.49+ (available in various color sets and in individual colors) 5. OR!!! Glamnetic press-on nails if you love getting a full set, but those numbers have really been adding up (*cries in a $20 tip*). These press-ons look super-duper natural, are extremely durable, and last two weeks! They also come in so many cute designs that, let's be honest, most salons can't even perfect. After using these, reviewers say they'll never go back to the salon again! Each kit comes with 30 size-inclusive nails, nail glue, an alcohol pad, a cuticle pusher, and a nail file! Each design and color have specific nail shapes and lengths! Promising review: "These are the best press-on nails I've ever used. They are thicker than other press-ons and feel exactly like a professional full set. I don't know if the strength difference is in the thickness of their nails or in their glue but I don't feel the need to baby them like I do with other press-ons. Because I'm confident in their strength, I'm able to function with them the same way I would when I'd wear a gel set from the salon. I followed the application directions as well as tips I gathered from others and I've had zero nails pop off on me. I picked my nail sizes out, pushed my cuticles back, swiped each nail with the alcohol wipe, brushed the glue on the nail and on my actual nail (bought their brush-on glue separately), and applied the nails right before going to bed. I also filed the nails down right after application to give myself coffin-shapes as opposed to claw-shapes. Super easy and they look and feel fantastic." — Alisha Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in so many different colors and designs) 6. A pair of cherry earrings because cherries are arguably the most aesthetically pleasing fruit and deserve to be shown off. Plus, reviewers love how lightweight and comfortable these are, so you can wear 'em all day, every day! Amazon Promising review: "I have sensitive ears and only wear light earrings. These are light, were fine in my ears, and I got so many compliments. I adore them! Highly suggest!" — Emily J. Fuller Get two pairs from Amazon for $7.99. 7. And a cherry bag charm — IMHO, loving anything cherry-related is a character trait and you should be proud of it. This adorable little charm is very similar to the $95 Coach one and, according to reviewers, feels good quality with a nice weight to it — just at a much more affordable price. You can clip it to your handbag or keys and make life a little more ~cheery~. You can see a similar one in this TikTok! Promising review: "I was really debating buying the $95 one but figured I spent enough on the bag, so I decided to just get a replica for the cherry. I'm so glad I did! It looks almost exactly like it except for the slight change in hardware color. The quality seems great, and it looks sturdy. I love it! It really gives the bag an extra nice touch." — Oriana Pineda Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 8. A pair of lightweight legging-style joggers perfect for lounging around, running any casual activity because they're just that comfy. They feature two pockets to store your phone, wallet, and keys, and reviewers can't help but compare them to Lululemon's Align joggers. Promising review: "I have purchased these in pretty much every color and wear them year round. They are true to size and so super comfortable! The colors are beautiful and the fabric is buttery soft. Though I like them in the spring summer and fall, they also keep me warm in the winter due to the nature of the fabric. They are not transparent and don't feel heavy. They are just like Lululemon joggers! I love these pants!!" — Jennifer Bahr Get it from Amazon for $27.54 (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and 25 colors). 9. And a cropped tank with padding that looks EXACTLY like the Lululemon Align tank top — I'm actually shook! It has the same neckline *and* removable padding, and it's won over 29,000+ 5-star reviewers with its comfort and support. I bought a few of the Lululemon ones and after discovering this version... I'm absolutely devastated LOL. Promising review: "The quality is phenomenal and the support and padding provides smooth coverage and great shape. These look just like the Lulu ones. I like a more generous fit, so I went up a size, but if you're going for more of a sports bra type fit, go with usual size. So impressed! I want this in more colors." — Courtney R. Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in 29 colors and women's sizes XS–3XL). 10. Essence's Lash Princess mascara that enhances your beautiful lashes with its cone-shaped fiber brush — with such dramatic (+ clump-free) results, you won't need extensions or falsies ever again. Reviewers swear it delivers the same (if not better) results as name-brand mascaras for less than $5 — the 261,000+ 5-star ratings don't lie! Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say about it: "Hello, that is my face above, because I bought into the hype of all the 5-star reviews and now I will never look back!! Putting it on is like giving my eyelashes butterfly wings. It doesn't get clumpy, it stays put ALL the livelong day no matter how much you sweat, and you can apply it on very lightly if you don't want it to look so dramatic, or continue applying for longer lashes each time." Promising review: "Saw this product on TikTok and thought it would be expensive looking at the results they got. I am beyond amazed with how my lashes look after about two coats. For around $5 you couldn't ask for a better mascara! I will be buying this same one when I run out. I was not expecting to like it as much as I do! No complaints." — Kd Get it from Amazon for $4.99 (available in two styles and in a three-pack). 11. A set of mini cheese boards so each one of your guests can have their own charcuterie board during wine night. Promising review: "What I like about this product: You can literally make any food look fancy if you were to put it on the slate. Six slates in a set means this is perfect for tapas and sushi presentation or any sort of dry appetizer, cheese, etc. The list goes on and on to wherever your imagination leads. You can write down and label each slate with the chalk that comes in the set. For example, you can label what kind of cheese it is on the slate. You can also write down whose creation it was if you were to have a sushi making party like I did. I don't have a single thing I don't like about this. All I can say is this is a really good purchase. Don't be hesitant. JUST BUY IT. YOU WILL LOVE IT!!" — I Tried & Reviewed It Get six boards and three pieces of chalk from Amazon for $24.74. 12. A pair of constellation tassel earrings that'll be the *star* of your outfit. You can also take off the fringe backs when you want a little less ~bling bling~. Amazon, Promising review: "These are absolutely beautiful and clever, with the post being falling stars. The stud sits comfortably and is lovely. Not gaudy or tacky in the least. I'm thrilled with them — and the price? If you are charmed by the picture, you won't be disappointed! They're beautiful!" — Amyss Get them from Amazon for $9.98 (available in two colors). 13. A vintage-inspired crescent bag because who isn't a sucker for anything vintage. Don't be fooled by its size — one reviewer said it was able to hold their phone, wallet, and lip gloss! Amazon Promising review: "I love the bag. I needed something that was everyday wearable and fit my phone, keys, wallet, and lip product. I carry any extra items in my diaper bag. This bag is great; super Y2K, and goes with a lot of my clothes. I recommend. I would buy it in brown too!" — Brynn Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 15 colors). 14. And a sophisticated laptop tote bag that is very versatile so you can strut in style and have everything you need at the same time. Promising review: "It's much more spacious than it looks. It's very sleek and stylish. I use it as my work bag, and I find that it looks professional and has enough space for all of my stuff. I carry a laptop, pencil case, two books, makeup bag, water bottle, wallet, lotion, phone and laptop charger, and other small miscellaneous objects. Still plenty of space. And when you see carry it, it doesn't feel bulky or cumbersome. The bag does sag a bit after use. But has held up to wear and tear. I would recommend." — Su Get it from Amazon for $34.86+ (available in nine styles). 15. A spandex-blend slip maxi dress because wouldn't it be nice to look dressy but stay comfy at the same time? Thanks to this Skims lookalike, you can! Reviewers *love* how the material is just as soft as that brand's, and some even say it's better! Reviewers agree that if you want it fitted, size down. Promising reviews: "I saw this girl wearing this exact style of dress with a Skims tag on the back, and honestly, it made me so grateful that I purchased this dress instead. It looks exactly like the Skims version, and I could be biased, but the material of this dress looked better than the Skims one. If you want it to be a little snug, I would definitely recommend sizing down one size from your normal size. So freaking comfortable and made out of thick material." — Kaitlyn "This was purchased to add to my summer dresses. I recently bought one in brown and loved it. So I had to get it in this purple /lavender color. Material's just as good and thick, all while being formfitting and going to my ankles. It's still breathable and I could move around without worrying about anything coming loose. I love that even though it was a lighter color, you couldn't see what I was wearing underneath. Perfect. I receive compliments all the time in this dress, even from toddlers. Even they know a great look when they see it. Haha. 😊" — Roxi Roxx Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in women's sizes XXS–XL and 10 colors). 16. An Ikea bag coin purse that's just absolutely iconic. Forget the LV or Gucci wallet, this is really all you'll ever need. Amazon, 17. A moisturizing TirTir milk toner if your skin needs a little hydration boost before moisturizing or putting on makeup. It's formulated with chamomile, which reduces redness and irritation, and rice bran extracts to help even skin tone and enhance brightness. Psst…It's also alcohol-free, paraben-free, and fragrance-free, making it perfect for even the most sensitive of skin. Promising reviews: "For a toner, this is SO hydrating and just heavenly. It's perfect for makeup prep as it has just a tad of tackiness right after applying. Goes on under my serums and moisturizer perfectly and I've noticed a huge difference in my skin. I saw it recommended by a YouTuber and tried it and it's now a daily use for me, which is rare because I have very sensitive, acne-prone skin and I'm very picky about skincare. I can't recommend this enough, truly." — Amazon Customer "One of my favorite finds from watching TikTok videos. Definitely worth the hype. Feels amazing on the skin. I keep it in the fridge!!" — VickyT Get it from Amazon for $13+ (available in two sizes and a lighter version). 18. And the bestselling Tirtir foundation — if you've been looking for a foundation that doesn't crack, cake, or crease, you can stop your search because this bb is the one! It lasts up to 72 hours, provides buildable coverage, and conceals redness, blemishes, and dark circles. Plus, the hibiscus and red propolis extracts enhance skin elasticity, aka giving you that desirable "glass skin" effect. Check out a TikToker applying the foundation. Promising review: "I'm absolutely in love! The 21N Ivory shade perfectly matches my skin tone and gives me a flawless, glass-like finish. The coverage is buildable, so I can go from a light, natural look to full coverage as needed. It's lightweight and lasts all day without feeling heavy or cakey. The semi-matte finish keeps my skin looking fresh and radiant. Plus, the compact packaging is perfect for on-the-go touch-ups. If you're after a high-quality foundation that delivers, this one is a must-try!" — great p Get it from Amazon for $15+ (available in two sizes and 40 shades). 19. A vintage-inspired bustier that features a V-cut hem and gorgeous neckline. It comes in so many different eye-catching colors, so good luck trying to choose just one! Promising review:"I purchased this corset after watching a TikTok video of another mid-sized girl talking about it. It did not disappoint! It fits nicely, I got lots of compliments on it! Someone else pointed out to me that the fabric looks expensive and just like another bustier listed on PrettyLittleThing for over twice the price." — Elizabeth Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in women's sizes 00–16 and 12 colors). 20.

The pearls are snuggly placed on the very sturdy pins. I have no concerns about the pearls popping off. Also, I have curly hair, but through some weird trickery, I have never had a hair get snagged in between the pearls. I was fully prepared to have to suffer at the end of the night by ripping these out of my head and sacrificing a few strands, but I still have not had to!" — Brianna De Armas Get it from Amazon for $8.97. 25.

Promising review:"I bought this on a whim when I saw someone review it on TikTok. After using it several times over the course of a week, I immediately noticed the difference in the color of my teeth. I'm a smoker and a heavy coffee drinker. I'm finding that this product will be a lifesaver in terms of what my smile looks like. I would definitely recommend!!" — Mully Get a two-pack from Amazon for $18.95 (also available in larger pack sizes). 29. A cocktail ring set that'll probably strike up so much conversation because it's just plain gorgeous, shiny, jaw-dropping, bling-bling — shall I keep going? You can also break the two up and wear them separately! Promising review: "First let me say I LOVE THIS RING!!!! I wear it all the time. I've been wearing it for over a month now and in the beginning I tried to take it off when doing dishes, showering, and washing my hands. After about two weeks I just decided to leave it on and it has been fine. I never take it off, the ring is true to size. It's not too thin or thick, feels great on, and it is durable. The only con is that the stones can sometimes look cloudy. Other than that I love it couldn't be happier, it's great for the price and I am very pleased." — tracy k revels Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four colors). 30. Nyx Brow Glue so you can sculpt your arches to craft your desired shape, volume, and texture. From natural to feathered brows, you can achieve anything with this baby. It doesn't get tacky or flaky like other glues *and* holds up well against sweat! Promising reviews:"For forever, I would use hair spray to hold my eyebrows, and throughout the day, I would sweat through it, and it wouldn't last. This product is awesome; I've had it on my brows for a 9-hour shift, and they are still in place! Also, I'm glad to say it doesn't dry and get flaky, nor does it feel uncomfortable on the skin. I use brow powder, and this does NOT affect the look of the powder, nor does it smudge it. I will FOREVER buy this product." — Shelby "The Boy Brow from Glossier was my ride-or-die eyebrow product for years, but the tubes are so small, and they raised the price, so I could no longer justify it. This brow glue is the closest thing I've found to Boy Brow, and it's half the price! Will definitely repurchase." — Alex Get it from Amazon for $9.97 (available in six shades, including clear, and combo packs). 31. A spray bottle of quick-dry hair and body glitter capable of turning you into a fairy princess because you'll be ✨ shimmering ✨ from head to toe. Reviewers also love that it washes off easily — which, for glitter, is basically unheard of. Promising review: "I have used this product for almost a year now. I use it on my hair and body. It makes everything smell good and everything sparkle. I use it when I have a work shift, and girls night out, a trip to the pool. I do have blonde hair so I have to spray more than my friends with darker hair for it to show up. But hands down smells amazing, and the glitter is so cute." — Avery linhart Get it from Amazon for $3.99+ (available in four shades and two-packs).

Kendall Jenner's go-to £6 highlighter hailed as 'holy grail' for a summer glow
There's no denying that Kendall Jenner always looks radiant and glowing. If you want to find out one of her beauty secrets, then we know the product she swears by - and it can be bought for under £6. As an ambassador for high street brand L'Oréal Paris, the 29-year-old supermodel often uses its products in her own routine. One of them she has previously raved over is the Lumi Glotion that gives a "glowy" and "dewy" finish. The viral highlighter, which is also loved by influencers and celebrity makeup artists, can be bought on Amazon for just £5.99 with a Prime membership. Even without Amazon Prime it's still affordable at just £12.79, making it a budget-friendly celeb must-have. Read more: Aldi confirms return date of sell-out hair styler similar to Dyson for under £60 Read more: Amazon users bag 'lush' £25 Sol de Janeiro travel set that 'smells like summer' Available in four skin shades from fair to deep, this glow lotion has been infused with shea butter and glycerine to keep your skin hydrated for 24 hours. Not just ideal for the face, as it can also be used to give your body a bit of a glow as well. The "lightweight" formula has been infused with luminous pearls to enhance your skin's natural glow, allowing it to be used on its own for a quick, fresh natural glow, or as a primer for your foundation. It can also be used as a highlighter or bronzer to define the high points of your face. By mixing a light and bronze shade on specific areas such as your cheekbones and nose, you can achieve a 'sculpted' appearance. It's not just Kendall that's a fan, as the L'Oréal Paris Lumi Glotion has achieved a 4.5 rating based on thousands of Amazon reviews, as other beauty fans hail it as their "holy grail" that even they want to "gatekeep" from others. A delighted shopper said: "This is now part of my everyday makeup routine. It's like filter over the skin. Gives a healthy glow with minimal effort." A second review read: " Beautiful glow . Wear alone or under make up and doesn't pill. It's similar to the Hollywood filter. I'm a medium skin tone and bought the shade deep to bronze up for the summer. You can also use as a highlighter. I love it." Someone else praised: "Have repurchased this twice and will definitely repurchase when I'm out! This is my holy grail for glow as it's dewy and sits perfectly under AND over makeup. "I have combination skin and use Weleda Skin Food Light as well as SPF and it doesn't pill on my skin at all and gives the most glorious glow that will definitely grab compliments!" And another enthusiastic review read: This product is heaven sent. Can I gate keep this product? The shine and hydration that this product provides, I am in love!! "I use this daily as my no make up look as it has a subtle tint but just makes the skin glow . It is going to be a repeat purchase!" One reviewer did advise that the product left a "sticky" texture, saying: "This would be so nice if it didn't leave a sticky surface. It feels like it's not finished and like you need to go over it with a sponge/beauty blender. But it does leave a lovely finish, maybe if you like the make up look and use setting powder after it would be perfect!" Purchase the L'Oréal Paris Lumi Glotion for £5.99 (with Prime) or £12.79 (without Prime) here . To achieve a "better than filter" glow, then Rimmel's Multi Tasker Better Than Filters (30ml) , priced at £12.99 at Boots, acts as a skin primer, highlighter and glow booster. Alternatively, another product to achieve a subtle glow and hydration is the e.l.f. Halo Glow Liquid Filter (31.5ml) that is available to buy for £15 from Superdrug.
