I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a calming and artistic escape!" — Ally $7.99 Promising review: "I recently tried the Olay Super Serum Body Wash, and I am absolutely in love with it! The formula is incredibly hydrating, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth after every use. It lathers beautifully and has a lovely, light fragrance that isn't overpowering. After just a few uses, I noticed my skin looked more radiant and felt deeply moisturized. The addition of serums in the body wash is a game changer my skin feels nourished, and I no longer need to apply lotion right after showering. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a luxurious, skin-loving body wash!" — Darina $12.97 at Amazon Amazon Amazon The "Almost Lipsticks" are also well-known for working as a subtle lip and blush shade for a perfectly dewy, au naturelllll look!

My pores appear smaller, and my nose is smoother." — Sarah Cavasos $9.98 at Amazon Promising review: "The 'abrasive sponge when cold' or 'squishy when hot' is an awesome feature for the type of scrubbing you want to do.

This product really does work!" — GreenGoddess $9.99 at Amazon Amazon Amazon Promising review: "This automatic 1-inch ceramic curling iron has completely transformed my hair routine.

Portable." — Alex Bonick $39.99 at Amazon Promising review: "Really makes a difference. First overnight treatment I've used where my lips genuinely feel hydrated and plumper in the morning.

I saw these on TikTok and thought I'd give them a try and was not disappointed. I use this when I get out of the shower to really help scrub away and dead skin, and it does leave my face feeling smoother. It is a bit pricey but I feel like it did last me a while." — Emily Bianca $18 at Amazon Sayso is a woman-owned small business that specializes in the first-ever cocktail tea bag, perfect for cocktails and mocktails. Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical when I purchased, but these are actually fantastic. The taste is great and the bags make it incredibly easy to mix up what would otherwise be complex cocktails quickly and easily. I've had the spicy marg, espresso martini, and old fashioned versions, and while they aren't exactly the same as the original they are wonderful for making yourself a cocktail at home. Highly recommend." — Meredith $14.99 at Amazon Amazon Amazon Check out a TikTok of the Ninja Crispi Air Fryer System in action. Each air fryer comes with the "PowerPod," two containers (a 4-quart and a 6-quart), and lids. The PowerPod has auto-shutoff and four modes: Max Crisp, Bake, Air Fry, and Recrisp. The "feet" are heat-safe, so you can prop it on any surface without worrying! Promising review: "I got my Ninja Crisper today and reheated some stuffed bread with feta cheese and spinach, and it did a wonderful job. It was like it just came out of the oven the first time. Nice and crispy outside, but the inside heated just right. I love that the bottom glass can be covered with the lid it comes with. They come with a metal plate you can put in the glass bottom part, and it actually fits into the lid, so it doesn't get lost. The glass makes a difference in the taste, too. It is a great product and well worth it." — Jennifer $179.99 at Amazon Reviewers also use this as an easy detangler both for themselves and for their kiddos!

I tried 5 buys to get rid of my strawberry legs this summer, one was agonising and even turned me & my bath orange

WHATEVER your views on body hair may be, the majority of women try to remove it. In fact around 90% of women in the UK shave their legs, and as I'm too much of a wimp for waxing, I'm one of them. 7 7 But sensitive skin and shaving twice a week don't go well together and often I end up with strawberry legs I want to cover up anyway. It's an issue many people face and occurs when your hair follicles or pores are clogged with dirt, dead skin, bacteria or oil, which typically happens with shaving. But as we are set for a hot summer this year, I would like to get my legs out as much as possible. So I put five products to the test to see what would get rid of them so I can finally wear a skirt in confidence this summer. Venus Satin Care Women's Shaving Gel Sensitive Shaving Gel, £2 While most people swear by shaving foams for a smooth shave, I always find them to make my sensitive skin dry and itchy. Unfortunately, Venus' Satin Care shaving foam for sensitive skin, which is currently £2 was no different. While it did make shaving that bit more fun with all the foam, as soon as my legs were dry I wanted to scratch them and notice the dreaded red dots immediately. Rating 2/5 7 Fab Daily tests out the new face shaving product made popular on TikTok Veet Expert Miraculous Oil, £5.99 Like shaving foams, I find a lot of shaving oils have the opposite effect for my skin and tend to cause a reaction. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I didn't get the same reaction from the Veet Miraculous Oil. It was super moisturising and gave me a smooth shave, however, not as close to the skin as usual. I also used this after the shower and found it calmed down any red skin trying to make an appearance. Rating 3/5 Estrid Pre-Shave Treatment, £7.95 I tend to roll my eyes at the thought of a scrub actually exfoliating my legs, but I was pleasantly surprised with Estrid's Pre-shave Treatment. It had a light lather to it, and the beads worked well enough to get rid of any dead skin, making for a smooth shave. I stepped out of the shower and moisturised like I usually do and was happy to report I had no itching or red skin. Even the next day, my skin looked smooth, and there was no sight of strawberry skin. My only issue with the product is that it costs £7.95, which is pretty pricey considering how regularly I'd use it. Rating 4/5 7 Fabulous' £10 Fake Tan Test FINDING the perfect fake tan isn't easy. That's why Fabulous tested a number of fake tans which cost less than £10.. *If you click on a link in this boxout we will earn affiliate revenue Superdrug Solait Self Tan Mousse Medium - £4.79 (was £5.99) - Buy Now Tester: Abby Wilson, Senior Fabulous Digital Writer Review: "This product give a very natural looking tan and if you wanted something a bit bolder, I'd suggest leaving it on longer or choosing a darker shade. I'm impressed with the results, but now my entire room stinks of the stuff. If you're on a budget and want a tan for last-minute plans, I would say this is one to try. " bBold Dream Mousse Tan in Dark - £9.50 - Buy Now Tester: Josie O'Brien, Senior Fabulous Digital Writer Review: "The first thing that hit me about this tan was the 'juicy watermelon' scent - it's delicious. I was left with a natural bronze hue rather than orange glow. My only qualm is that the tan seemed to stick to my dry patches and accentuated 'strawberry skin' on my legs. I'm still adding this tan to my arsenal though - the smell, colour and texture are dreamy." St Moriz Professional Medium Tanning Mousse - £4.99 - Buy Now Tester: Kate Kulniece, Fabulous Writer Review: "Not only does St. Moriz mousse leave you with a gorgeous bronzed glow, but it also smells fabulous - think Piña Colada on a sunny beach. At first, I was a little bit sceptical cause I'm a gradual fake tan girlie, but this quick developing St. Moriz number may change it all." Sally Hansen Airbrush Legs Instant Tan Spray, £12.59 If you grew up in the 90s or early 2000s like me, then you know all about Sally Hansen's Airbrush Legs. It's essentially make-up for your body to cover up bruises and give skin a natural tone. I figured if I couldn't perfect the shaving routine, at least I could cover the strawberry skin, right? Well, I couldn't be more wrong. I estimated it might be messy to apply so did so in the bath, and once it was on my legs I was horrified to see it was fluorescent orange and had stained my bath. Even after it had been rubbed in, the shade did not get better and I found it stung like a b**tch despite it being applied hours after shaving. Rating 1/5 7 Bulldog Skincare Sensitive After Shave Balm, £5.49 My last try was a little rogue as it was technically a men's product for facial hair. However, I figured if the Bulldog Sensitive Aftershave Balm worked for the most sensitive skin on our body then it had to be good for the legs too And I'm pleased to report that my intuition was right. I went on with my usual shaving routine with shower gel and an African net and towel dried my legs before applying the aftershave to my legs. Not only did my legs feel super soft, there was no strawberry skin in sight. What made it even better is that it costs £5.49 and you only need a small amount so it while last forever. Rating 5/5 7
