December Beauty Products

Every year, thousands of new beauty products hit the market with brands hoping they’ll find their way onto our bathroom shelves and into our make-up bags.

Faced with so many tubes, tubs, bottles and lipstick bullets promising to transform how we look and feel, it can be hard to sort the goods from the duds

1. BareMinerals Strength and Length Serum-infused Mascara, £23

You may be confused by the wand of this mascara, which looks a bit like a venus flytrap plant, but once you get the hang of it, trust us, you’ll never look back. First, you use the inner bristles to coat your lashes, then the outer bristles to lengthen and separate, and do your lower lashes. The vegan formula is also enhanced with strengthening serum to give you fuller-looking lashes over time


2. 3ina The Longwear Lipstick 270, £14.95

A highly-pigmented but non-drying matte lipstick is hard to find, but this liquid formula covers all the bases. Lightweight and long-lasting, it’s available in 16 shades.


3. Typology Targeted Blemish Serum 2% Salicylic Acid + 1% Zinc, £19.80

During this, the year of face masks and, subsequently, the dreaded ‘maskne’, salicylic acid has become a daily essential for many. The beta hydroxy acid penetrates deep into the skin, dissolving the debris that clogs pores and produces spots, and helps to dry out existing acne.

Containing 2% salicylic (the maximum allowed), this light serum is easy to apply – smooth over problem areas nightly, so it gets to work while you sleep.


4. Wishful Clean Genie Cleansing Butter, £31, Boots

The first cleanser from beauty mogul Huda Kattan’s skincare line Wishful, Clean Genie is the ideal make-up remover, the creamy balm melting away even the most stubborn mascara and rinsing off to leave your skin feeling clean and soft.
