February 19, 2022 at 06:00AM When it comes to our body, time takes its toll on just about all of it. And although we know all too well what ageing does to our skin, when it comes to other areas of our beauty regimens, age is rarely factored in. From swapping in serums that tackle fine lines and wrinkles to acid treatments that work against age spots and pigmentation, products that cater to ageing skin seem to be everywhere. But what about our hair?It turns out that besides going grey, ageing can affect our hair in a number of ways. From thinning to dryness, the ways in which our hair deals with getting older means that as time goes by, we may need to change up our routine. And one of the most effective ways we can do that is by trying out…

February 19, 2022 at 06:00AM Black tailored trousers are the perfect example of how a classic item of clothing can be interpreted in countless ways yet remain versatile and timeless. One day, I might be in the mood for a more close-fitting silhouette to balance out a slouchy knit, while another will see me reaching for a dramatic wide-leg pair. This season, I have been on the hunt for the perfect pair of low-rise black trousers. Granted, I already own a classic cigarette pair from Cefinn and a very fun ‘70s-inspired flared pair from L'Agence, but I’ve been specifically looking for something in a slouchier, hip-skimming fit. Every style brings something different to the table. It appears as though fashion designers have clocked on to the power of black tailored trousers this season, with countless iterations making their way down the runways of the industry’s heavy hitters. Saint Laurent remained loyal to its polished cause,…

February 19, 2022 at 05:43AM There’s no doubt that 2021 was a turbulent year for our hair. We spent the first few months trying our hardest to manage our strands at home after going a really long time without a salon appointment. And when we finally did get the chance to sit down in front of a hairdresser, we had a whole lot of damage on our hands. Despite having big plans for our hair last year, in reality, we spent most of 2021 trying to get our strands fighting fit after many, many months of neglect. But as we ring in the New Year, we’re feeling pretty confident that 2022 will be the year for hair. To get some sort of idea of the sorts of hair trends that will be popular this year, we reached out to some of the top hairstylists in the game.So, whether…

February 19, 2022 at 04:36AM When it comes to my hair, I tend to fluctuate between two lengths: just above my shoulder or just above my boobs (both technical terms). Yet there always comes a time with both lengths when I start to feel like I want to either chop it all off and start again or indulge my inner Rapunzel and grow it out super long.Right about now, I’m at the “chopping it all off” stage, mainly down to the fact that I’m seeing cool, short hairstyles pretty much everywhere I look and the fact that I can’t get a haircut right now. Yes, short hair is definitely trending, and I want in. However, before I sprint to the salon, I think it’s best I start to garner some expert advice on potential styles.“Short hairstyles are on-trend at the moment,” confirmed Neil Barton, Goldwell ambassador and…

February 19, 2022 at 04:04AM I’m incredibly lucky that I get sent some of the most premium beauty products on the market to try out as part of my job. From £205 moisturisers to £109 facial steamers, I’ve had the chance to test some of the most luxurious formulations and beauty tools in the UK to find out what’s worth the hype. So does expensive always equal best? In a word, no. Despite having access to extravagant products and high-end beauty brands, there are tons of affordable options that rival their more expensive counterparts. In fact, there are plenty even the most experienced of beauty editors would struggle to differentiate between once applied to the skin.So whether you’re trying to stick to a budget or you just don’t want to spend excessively on a pricier counterpart when you don’t have to, here are 15 high-end products…
