October’s Best High-Street Beauty Launches
Gaia Perfume
£24 | Nobody's Child
Inspired by Gaia – Greek goddess of Earth – this fragrance from Nobody’s Child’s debut beauty line feels suitably autumnal. Combining moss and vetiver with a soft, woody depth, the result is verdant and lush. The blend has a cosiness to it, without verging into sleepy. If you’re looking to switch up your scent, this affordable option is a nice way to nod to the new season.

Magnetic Nights First Row Stick Blush
£16.99 | KIKO Cosmetics
We’re a sucker for a cream blush but especially when the autumnal change in temperature can leave skin looking dull. From Kiko’s Magnetic Nights collection, this blush is cleverly designed to hug the contours of your face. Swipe over the apples of the cheeks and blend slightly upwards for a flattering, lifted effect.

Vitamin C Radiance Face Cream
£12.50 | Q+A
Skin experts swear by vitamin C moisturiser for its ability to brighten and protect against environmental aggressors. Q+A combines the powerful antioxidant with centella asiatica, a herb that boosts the skin’s natural production of hyaluronic acid, resulting in a plumper, bouncier complexion.

The Ultimate Detangler Plant Brush
£17 | Tangle Teezer
A favourite among the LGs, the latest addition to Tangle Teezer’s eco-conscious range is perfect for brushing through knots. Featuring the same two-tiered teeth design as its Ultimate model, you get the same smooth, glossy results, only it’s created from 85% bioplastic, which is derived from sustainably sourced castor beans. Keep it in your bag for an impromptu hair refresh.

Underlash Refill Kit
£8 | Eylure
If you want to add noticeable length to your lashes without going to the bother of extensions, try these from Eylure’s new Underlash range. They’re essentially tiny clusters that adhere close to your natural lash line so you can build your own custom look – they’re also subtler and more forgiving than a classic strip lash. Focus on the outer corner to enhance your eye shape.

Pick 'N' Mix Air™ Flexi Air Styler Starter Kit
£169.99 | Mark Hill
We love a beauty gadget, and this multipurpose styler by Mark Hill is seriously hardworking. Designed to streamline your hair routine, it combines a dryer, curler and hot brush into one single tool. It’s surprisingly easy to use – in particular, the hot brush attachment helps revitalise flat hair, adding targeted volume at the root. You can even twist the handle around to help you reach the back of your head.
