Your 10 most-bought beauty products in September
September 30th 2018
June’s been all about high temperatures, high humidity and the arrival of some highly anticipated launches - and your shopping carts have reflected that.
From peels for getting feet sandal-ready to leg makeup and lightweight workout wear, these are the beauty and fitness buys you’ve been stocking up most on this month.
Think of this texturising spray as sexy bedhead hair in a bottle. Great for adding edge to longer hair lengths, simply turn your head upside down and spray in to make a more polished ‘do look instantly more undone.
Offering stretch, style and substance, these high performance leggings offer a wealth of workout-boosting benefits at a surprisingly low price point. With antibacterial tech to keep them fresher for longer and subtle animal print panels along the sides, they’ll soon become your new summer workout staple.
If you’re irritation-prone, there’s a good chance that the thought of incorporating an exfoliating acid into your routine fills you with a certain level of trepidation. However, not all are off-limits. Try azelaic acid, advises aesthetic doctor, Dr David Jack. As well as being one of the least irritating acids, it also calms redness and reduces dryness. This fragrance-free pick from The Ordinary is particularly great in this regard.
If you’re worried about the heatwave wreaking havoc with your lipstick, this hard-working lip pencil’s for you. Providing a long-lasting undercoat to make your lip colour of choice last that much longer, it’s creamy, full coverage and comes with an in-built blending brush for a seamless finish.
For an SPF eye cream for sensitive eyes, look no further than this fragrance-free find from Clinique. Team with a pair of shades and your peepers will be ready for anything the summer throws at them.
Foot peels aren’t for the squeamish but boy, are they satisfying. Causing hard skin to shed before your eyes, this particular pick enriched with an apple based AHA leaves feet smooth and silky - just allow a few days though for it to work its magic.
This cooling and calming foundation is particularly great for those who have rosacea, thanks to its inclusion of inflammation fighting eperluin and salicylic acid. Its clever blurring gel-based pigment tech has proven a hit with us too.
A hairdryer in this heat? If the thought causes you to break out in a sweat, swap your blowdry for this air-dry essential instead. A favourite of hairdresser extraordinaire, Samantha Cusick, it leaves her hair frizz-free and super glossy too.
Cica creams are currently taking the skincare world by storm thanks to their ability to soothe and hydrate delicate and irritated skin types. This lightweight body version is a particular favourite of ours thanks to its fast absorbency and ability to take the edge off concerns such as eczema and psoriasis.
This scored an impressive 10/10 when we tested out body and leg makeup last month, and for just reason. Providing subtle glowing colour and coverage, it’s long-lasting and low maintenance to apply and wash off plus, its inclusion of shea butter and aloe vera leaves skin soft too.
