\"CurrentBody<\/p>\n

CurrentBody LED Neck & D\u00e9colletage Perfector, \u20ac399, 99, currentbody.ie<\/p>\n

Necking It<\/p>\n

We\u2019re all trying to fix our flipping necks and this lil beaut I invested in myself. When used for 10 minutes daily, the CurrentBody LED Neck & D\u00e9colletage Perfector (\u20ac399, 99, currentbody.ie) targets wrinkles and improves plumpness in eight weeks. I bought mine on a recent trip to Terrie McEvoy\u2019s gorgeous Mantra store in Kildare Village. It has three different wavelengths to target the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis, so the red wavelength boosts collagen and reduces lines, the nir wavelength firms, tightens and energises the skin, and the deep nir targets the most pronounced signs of ageing. Does it work? Absolutely, but only if you use it consistently. Do not buy, use for a week and then forget all about it! (FYI: A friend of mine uses hers on her husband\u2019s head as well as it\u2019s apparently great for hair health too.)<\/p>\n

\"Laura<\/p>\n

Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Under Eye Setting Powder, \u20ac36, brownthomas.com<\/p>\n

Get Set<\/p>\n

Laura Mercier\u2019s setting powder is everyone\u2019s favourite, and now the Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Under Eye Setting Powder (\u20ac37.20, flannels.ie) has just launched and is equally fab. It comes in five colour-correcting shades for every skin tone to set, smooth and brighten with light-reflecting pearls. The fine powder has peach and pink pigments designed to colour-correct discolouration and darkness to awaken your eyes. If you\u2019ve never tried an undereye setting powder, this is the one to go for \u2013 you won\u2019t be disappointed.<\/p>\n

\"Glow<\/p>\n

Glow Recipe Toner Pads, \u20ac31.05, cultbeauty.com<\/p>\n

Go Glow<\/p>\n

Inspired by Korean skincare, there are three types of the new Glow Recipe Toner Pads (\u20ac31.05, cultbeauty.com). Whether your skin needs a detox, a glow boost or soothing recovery, these pads reset it in just five minutes. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, they\u2019re infused with fruit-powered actives that gently exfoliate, soothe and hydrate.<\/p>\n

I love how easy they are to use \u2013 it\u2019s all in a pad you just plonk on, rub around and throw in the bin and bingo, your skin looks brilliant!<\/p>\n

\"Eyra<\/p>\n

Eyra Restore Conditioner (\u20ac38, eyrahair.com)<\/p>\n

Eye Spy<\/p>\n

Some shampoos and conditioners can be too heavy, or just not right for your hair type. So, please say hello to the new Eyra Awaken Shampoo and Restore Conditioner (\u20ac38 each, eyrahair.com), which are focused on balance and lightness. Available in Fine, Medium and Thick options, it\u2019s formulated by blending botanical ingredients with modern science. It contains jojoba and castor oils alongside horsetail, seaweed, marshmallow, chamomile, and nettle to make your hair soft and give it a natural shine, without weighing it down.<\/p>\n

\"Dior<\/p>\n

Dior Mattifying Invisible UV Stick, \u20ac65, brownthomas.com<\/p>\n

Glow Forever<\/p>\n

I am a HUGE fan of the Dior Mattifying Invisible UV Stick (\u20ac65, brownthomas.com) which combines four filters for daily high SPF 50 protection against the harmful effects of UVB and UVA rays. Formulated with hyaluronic acid and a blurring powder, it mattifies, visibly refines skin texture, reduces the appearance of pores and comes in showstopping casing. <\/p>\n

Darlo Bounce Midsize Collection, \u20ac55, heydarlo.com<\/p>\n

Treat<\/p>\n

Curly Sue My daughter found these Darlo rollers online and begged me to get them for her. Now we both use them as they are the easiest way to get that bouncy, \u2018just-left-the-salon\u2019 finish at home with minimal effort. The Darlo Bounce Midsize Collection (\u20ac55, heydarlo.com) contain 12 rollers in two sizes in a bag.<\/p>\n

Trick<\/p>\n

Stick with it SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor and measures a sunscreen\u2019s ability to protect your skin from the sun\u2019s UV radiation. The thing is, your SPF is only as good as your reapplication and most of us forget that bit. The easiest trick I\u2019ve found is to swap your handbag lipstick for an SPF stick, as they glide over make-up without ruining it, mattify shine and top up your protection in seconds. Now you\u2019ve no excuses.<\/p>\n
