EYE NEED IT
We don’t know what we love most about the new Smokey Eye Duo Kajal from Iconic London – the lusciously creamy formula, the versatility of its dual-ended kajal or its sheer staying power. Available in seven easy-to-blend shades, the kajal comes with both a chunky shadow-liner and a more precise liner to create party-perfect eyes in a flash.

Formulated by leading skin expert doctors to tackle inflammaging - inflammation which accelerates ageing - the revolutionary products utilise established and high performing ingredients alongside the powerhouse combo of sustainably sourced CBD and CBG. The brilliantly dynamic duo bring an abundance of benefits in reducing the signs of inflammaging to reverse ageing while boosting the overall health of the skin. We love the Super Defence Vitamin C Serum – providing daily protection against environmental stress like pollution, blue light and UV exposure, the innovative formula calms, hydrates and boosts the radiance of the skin while combating the signs of ageing.
FACE FACTS
We love Angela Langford’s deeply nourishing range of skin-loving formulas, and Balanced & Beautiful Face Oil is our latest crush. The luxurious mix of kiwi, rosehip and safflower is blended with omegas 3 and 6 to balance the skin; added cypress, bergamot and lemongrass clear blocked pores, while mandarin and frankincense tone and lift. Made by hand in Pembrokeshire, the British brand pours only the finest organic ingredients into its blends, while their personalised service allows you to target your specific skincare concerns. We recommend making this wonder oil a staple in your bridal beauty routine.

STAND TALL
The skin on your neck is as delicate as your eyelids but so often neglected – and, given the plunging gowns filling boutiques not to mention the rise of ‘tech neck’ due to increased technology use, it’s high time we lavished it with a little love. Step forward Inlight Beauty’s Neck Firming Serum, a new concentrated botanical serum complex to help firm, tone and protect the thinner skin of the neck and décolletage. Combining fresh notes of juniper and cypress with cacay oil rich in natural retinol, vitamin E and grapeseed oil, this 100% organic serum stimulates elastin and collagen.

We don’t know what we love most about Olverum’s new Body Polish: the soufflé-like texture, the deeply nourishing blend of essential oils or the calming scent. Perfect for a luxurious spa-like treat at home, the creamy blend gently exfoliates while deeply nourishing the skin, leaving your skin velvety and wedding-ready.
