Best For: Boosting Hydration
Brimming with minerals, this silky emulsion is like a drink for thirsty skin. Lightweight in texture, it absorbs fast and can be applied post-cleanse for a speedy hit of hydration.

Once it has settled, you'll find your complexion feels smooth and supple — ideal for seamless make-up application. A great addition to any skincare routine.

Magic Pole Mascara 2X Long & Curl, £12.95 | Holika Holika
Best For: A Dramatic Curl
Created with something called a ’Memory Curl Polymer’ and ’Volume Powder’, this mascara creates bold and long-lasting, dramatic lashes. The wand is made up of tightly packed bristles to ensure a smooth and even application, plus the ball top is ideal for perfecting that fluttered finish on the outermost lashes or separating any clumped-together lash hairs. Although the formula packs a punch, it’s still suitable for those with sensitive, tear-prone eyes.
