## Cheat Code: Founder’s Edit 



### £125 (Worth £204) 



  

## Why We Love It 



 

If your beauty routine calls for products that work hard without taking up too much time, try the Founder’s Edit. The rave-reviewed Radiate Beauty Balm creates a fresh, healthy-looking base in seconds, while the Iconoclast Eyeshadow Palette removes any decision fatigue, offering six wearable neutrals that can be dialled up or down depending on the occasion. A sweep of Highlighter adds effortless luminosity, while Lash Sophisticate Mascara creates the kind of definition that makes you look instantly more awake. Finally, we’re always here for a clever multi-tasker, and the brand’s bestselling AM/PM Chameleon really earns its keep, adapting to the unique pH of your lips to create the most flattering, natural-looking shade.

## Cheat Code 



### Off Duty Edit, £85 (Worth £131) 



  

## Why We Love It 



 

For those who prefer a more pared-back approach, the Off Duty Edit proves that less really can be more. Built around the brand’s cult Radiate Beauty Balm, it delivers a breathable, second-skin finish, while the 5Secs Express Lip &amp; Cheek Tint adds a natural flush of colour in exactly the places you need it. Lash Sophisticate Mascara opens up the eyes with just a few swipes, making it ideal for busy mornings, post-gym touch-ups and everything in between. Unfussy and instinctive to apply, it’s the kind of edit that slots seamlessly into everyday life, whether you’re commuting, travelling or merely looking to streamline your routine.
