Deeper Sleep Body Oil

£42 | Oskia

Dry, weathered skin is no match for this silky, nourishing body oil. Not only does it leave your limbs supple and glowing, the scent — a restorative, soothing blend of lavender, oud and frankincense — whisks you away into a state of deep calm. Massage it in after a long soak and you’ll be drifting off in no time.

Lola At Coat Check Candle

£54 | Discothéque

Cult brand Discothèque knows a good time. Flamboyant and unapologetic, there’s no room here for wallflower scents. ‘Lola At Coat Check’, one of its most beloved fragrances, is now available in candle form — and you won’t want to miss it. Creamy and enigmatic with a softly-spiced depth, this is such a brilliant outlier if you’re not into the traditional, slightly overdone, autumn scents.

TheraFace Mask Glo

£299 | TheraBody

Created by leading wellness-tech brand Therabody, this new LED mask is a cut above. Fitted with 504 lights, it caters to all manner of skin concerns, including acne, fine lines and dullness. Unlike some other designs out there, this properly covers the chin and jawline, so you get the full 360° treatment. It’s also cordless, so you’re free to move about and reap the benefits with minimal disruption. And when you have more time on your hands, try the scalp setting – the gentle vibrations are so soothing, especially after a long day.

Ethereal Eyes Eyeshadow Palette

£66 | Makeup By Mario

Hear us out — whether or not you need another palette is neither here nor there. What we will say is this: party season is fast approaching and the best palettes tick all the boxes, not only delivering major drama, but also featuring shades that feel wearable enough for every day. Spanning everything from pearlescent shimmers to soft-suede mattes, if you’re looking to treat yourself, this won’t disappoint. 

Available at SEPHORA.CO.UK


FacialPro Glow Glow-Boosting At-Home Facial System

£299.99 | Shark

Known for its high-tech tools, Shark’s depuffing launch has our attention. Promising to give you that coveted post-facial glow from home, this is one to know if you’re looking for maximum benefits. Alternating between the hot and cold temperature settings to shift fluid and soothe tired eyes is one of our favourite ways to use it – but it also has a pore vacuum attachment to clear congestion.

Beautiful Things Mask

£38 | Davines

A quality mask makes a world of difference to dull hair but if you’re short on time, you can still achieve decent results with a fast-acting formula. This recent launch by Italian label Davines is a case in point. Rather than the traditional rinse-off format, this milky leave-on mask gets to work straight away, using vegan collagen and baobab extract to restore shine and give your hair a newfound, touchable softness.

The Triple Shot Interchangeable Blow-Dryer Brush

$190 | Drybar

If you’re not yet on the hot brush hype, let us tempt you. First, forget everything you thought you knew about the category — the modern versions are powerful and far more sophisticated than their bulky predecessors. Take Drybar’s The Triple Shot. Seriously versatile, it actually minimises frizz thanks to the ionic technology, getting you one step closer to a smooth, salon-grade finish. It takes a little getting used to, but once you get the knack, you’ll be rushing to convert your friends.

Solo Shadow

£23 | Merit

If you’re looking for a one-and-done eyeshadow to take you from desk to dinner, this is just the ticket. Merit has expanded its much-loved cream eyeshadow line to include some wearable shimmers and we’re hooked. Luminous and pretty, these add instant dimension to your lids, creating a subtle, cool-girl sheen. Our current obsession is ‘Sartorial’, an earthy, flattering bronze. Take it all over the lid for easy impact and smudge along the lower lash line for added definition. 

Available at MERITBEAUTY.COM

Mask Fit Red Foundation

£23 | TirTir

K-beauty favourite TirTir is back with another base product, and this liquid foundation is actually inspired by the luminosity of the viral Red Cushion. Like so many Korean make-up products, this is full of skin-friendly ingredients – think astaxanthin and red hibiscus – to give your complexion that extra boost. Radiant and natural-looking, this is the key to a healthy, second-skin finish – so needed at this time of year. 

Available at SEPHORA.CO.UK

Lets Get Plump Plumping Lip Gloss

£10 | Marks & Spencer

Tingling lip plumpers were all the rage back in the day, and this new M&S lip launch is giving us all the nostalgia. Formulated with capsicum chilli extract, it gets to work quickly, creating noticeable, but still realistic-looking, volume and a glossy, high-shine finish. Plus, at just £10 it won’t break the bank. 

Available at MARKSANDSPENCER.COM


Éclat Cristalline Cheek Light

£72.80 (was £91) | Chantecaille

Creams and liquids are everywhere right now but you can’t beat a powder for superior staying power. From Chantecaille’s Holiday collection, this champagne-hued blush is gorgeous and would easily double up as a highlighter. Full of pearlescent pigment, this gives you a certified glow-boost, in a grown-up way. Swipe on the tops of the cheekbones with an angled brush for a flattering shimmer.

Available at SPACENK.COM

Foaming Rice Deep Cleanser

£13.99 | Byoma

New from high-street hero Byoma, this is a great affordable option for oily types craving the satisfaction of a foam. Whereas some formulas can overstrip the skin, leaving it tight and dry, this hits the sweet spot. Powered by rice extract and the brand’s signature barrier lipid complex, it transforms into a creamy lather, while still retaining that feeling of comfort and balance. 

Available at CULTBEAUTY.CO.UK

Skin Renewing Retinol Serum

£20.30 (was £29) | CeraVe

If you’ve previously shied away from the vitamin A category, fearing the dreaded purge stage, this could be your solution. Budget label CeraVe is known for catering to those with sensitive skin and this novice-friendly retinol is no exception. Add it into your evening routine gradually and build up the frequency. It has a certain gentle power, so you can be sure you’re in safe hands with this formula. 

Available at BOOTS.COM


Rose With Insect Eau De Parfum

£160 | Perfumer H

For an under-the-radar scent, you can’t beat Perfumer H, brainchild of fragrance innovator Lyn Harris. The new drop is modern, unexpected and perfect for after-hours. Softly sexy, this combines lush rose with peach, neroli and earthy oak moss to add that wet, slightly vegetal quality. As far as non-traditional roses go, this is one of our current favourites.

Afterglow Lip Oil

£21.60 (was £27) | NARS

Now the temperature is beginning to drop, the weather can wreak havoc on your lips. If you’re after something that will keep yours hydrated and pillowy-soft, but still add a sheer wash of colour, this is what we’re reaching for. Full of all-important omegas and vitamins, the latest addition from NARS replenishes lost moisture and cushions your lips in a silky, nourishing layer. For a hint of shimmer, keep an eye out for ‘Orgasm’, otherwise there are four flattering shades to choose from. 

Available at NARSCOSMETICS.CO.UK

Lash Lift Tubing Mascara

£26 | Blink Brow Bar

One of the most common complaints around tubing mascara is that it can be difficult to achieve that proper, wide-awake look. Promising lasting lift, this new formula by Blink Brow Bar is one to try if you like a fresh, curly effect. It’s also brilliant for separation thanks to the fine comb-style wand. Better still, you know you can rely on it to stay in place.
