There is no shortage of hair products that can help smooth frizz, add shine, or make hair look fuller. But not many can say they do all three—especially long-term. A popular in-salon hair treatment, however, may be the key to all of the above, and then some: hair Botox. Don’t worry, it doesn’t involve needles. Similar to the way wrinkle reducers like Xeomin or Botox Cosmetic smooth fine lines on the skin for a few months, hair Botox acts as a semipermanent deep conditioner, smoothing…
Quick, convenient, and easy to use, patches are the new wellbeing product everyone’s suddenly interested in. Victoria Health, which stocks A-list acupuncturist Ross Barr’s patch range, says that his products are consistent bestsellers and, after being flagged on This Morning earlier this year, they continue to sell in the thousands. CBD brand Kloris were also surprised to see that their patches surpassed many of their other offerings catapulting them into the position of hero product. “The patch popularity is continuing to grow.…
Extensions are the easiest and quickest way to add major length to your hair, but that’s not all they do. They can also bulk up fine, flat hair and add colorful dimension, all while looking incredibly discreet. Seriously: The latest hair extensions are more natural looking than ever before. But like many things in the world of beauty, extensions can be as intimidating as they are enticing. From clip-ins and keratin bonds to microlinks and tape-ins, one of the hardest…

The question of how to get thicker hair is an all-too-common one for hairstylists. Upwards of 50 percent of women experience hair loss at some point in their lives, and that number has only increased in recent years: 22 percent of women reported dealing with hair loss after having COVID. Tackling hair loss is arguably the question most beauty experts hear most often—and there is no one right answer. From slapping on nourishing hair masks and scalp oils to popping hair-growth supplements and using thickening shampoos, most of us are willing…
Admittedly, there is nothing more tedious than having to take off your mascara or falsies after a night out, especially on a hot summer evening. For those of us who occasionally skip our nighttime skincare steps, accidentally waking up with remnants of mascara still on is unpleasant and uncomfortable, but what is the alternative?

One of the most essential steps in nail maintenance—aside from filing and polishing them to absolute perfection—is cuticle removal. Your cuticles exist to protect your nails from bacteria and infection, experts say. Whether your local salon technician uses a cutting tool and flick of the wrist to get the job done, or you prefer the precision of tiny scissors at home, a smooth nail bed is essential for a long-lasting polish finish—but is this step in the care process actually doing more harm than good? “I…
What makes a beauty product truly iconic? Perhaps it’s decades of unwavering popularity, or a backstory that unfolds like a fairytale. Associations with old Hollywood surely lend weight.

No5 is now 100 years old – well, 101 to be precise – and remains the…
Most trips to our favourite facialists result in a diagnosis of the dreaded dehydration. However much you look after your skin, it’s a common problem to be faced with. In fact, recent consumer research shows searches for “hydrating skincare” are up 86 per cent on last year. “Dehydrated skin is skin lacking water or that which has reduced ability to hold onto water, and it can feel tight, dry and, in more severe cases, you could see scaling and irritation,”…
Not all of us have the time to plan a proper Halloween costume like the Kardashians do, nor we have people to help us find inspiration… Even though Halloween is not widely celebrated, we still consider it an important day to do something different, other than the usual “home-work-home” routine.

Since October started, we have seen a few posts…
