It is perfect for cleansing, soothing and smoothing. This super rich oil combines antioxidant rich raspberry plant stem cell extract and a smart complex of Omega rich oils 3,6 and 9.

Doubling up as a cleansing oil and a nourishing face oil, is the perfect skin-soother for wind-scorched faces.

Science of Skin Rescue No. One cream (£18.99) was developed for problem skin, an everyday moisturiser that is scientifically proven to improve the appearance of marks and scars caused by acne. Containing a naturally active green tea extract, EGCG, it works at a cellular level to do this in two different ways; firstly, by reducing the redness and secondly, by reducing the thickness. Together with other natural ingredients including anti-inflammatory magnolia bark, super moisturising microalgae and anti-oxidant vitamin E, this gentle but effective cream helps to give a calmer, clearer looking complexion day after day. Available from scienceofskin.
New from Romilly Wilde is the Sculpting Silver Facial Roller (£60). This compact silver ‘gem’ has multiple angled spherical heads that read the contours of the face perfectly, sculpting the jaw line, brow, forehead as well as the delicate eye orbital area to reduce puffiness. The unique cross-contour movement dramatically and powerfully massages the muscles around the face to tone, lift and energise which also stimulates circulation. The dinky size and weight make it easy to work with and feels very natural to use, fitting easily in your hand. The facial roller can be stored in the fridge for an extra ‘cool boost’ to reduce inflammation and puffiness for a brighter and more radiant complexion. Available now from romillywilde.
Dr. Hauschka are getting ready to launch their new Sun Care range which helps support the skin’s natural ability to protect itself from the sun, whilst also helping the skin recover after sun exposure. The range consists of: Tinted Face Sun Cream SPF 30 (£34) as well as giving a fresh, sun-kissed complexion it protects against UV radiation and prevents sun-induced skin ageing. The formulation with select medicinal plant extracts strengthens the skin, while the rich texture gently pampers and activates skin’s natural ability to retain moisture. Water resistant. Revitalising Mask (£39.50) Soothing and refreshing, the mask provides an even complexion and leaves the face and décolleté feeling toned and refined. Perfect for regulating and cooling skin that is prone to impurities and couperose, or that has been exposed to strong sunlight.

With regular use, it promotes a longer-lasting tan. Available May 2022 from drhauschka.
The latest launch from ZitSticka is Pore Vac (£30), an acid-rich clay mask for oily, congested skin. Key ingredients include Bentonite clay – renowned for its strong absorptive powers, this volcanic clay sucks up deep-rooted impurities; Kaolin clay – absorbs excess oil without parching the skin, eliminating impurities that build up in and around hair follicles; Apple cider vinegar – an antimicrobial that eases irritation and works with mineral-rich clays to unclog pores faster; Salicylic acid – a deep-diving BHA which gets deep inside pores to dislodge dirt and impurities; Sulphur – an antimicrobial that accelerates cell turnover and gets rid of impurities; AHAs – Lactic, tartaric and malic acids exfoliate the skin’s surface to smooth and retexturize; Niacinamide – soothes active breakouts and reduces redness and Jojoba – prevents over-drying and retains hydration even after the mask is rinsed off.

The Hair and Beauty Charity are still working to support those that need their help. They had over £250,000 donated from professional beauty expert, Caroline Hirons and the Beauty Backed campaign. They have funds available for those people who do need their help; ask them if you need support.
They are a small charity and have to prioritise assistance to those who need it most urgently. Priority will be given to households where only one adult (working within the industry) provides the only income to the household (e.g. if you live with your partner who will still receive an employed wage, priority will be given to single parent families whose only income is dependent on their hair/beauty industry wage). Visit their website for more information and to make an application.
