Beauty buys always make for a brilliant gift suggestion. Sure, we all have favourite products upon which we rely. Still, there’s nothing quite like receiving that new cult eye shadow palette that you couldn’t justify buying for yourself or unboxing a gift set of the high-end shampoo and conditioner that make your hair look salon styled. Whether you’re shopping for your mum, your sister, your best friend, your work wife, your niece, whomever, we’ve done the hard work for you.

After months of having little choice but to do all of our shopping online, we were keen to find out which beauty products have been selling on ASOS like hot cakes. We know that skincare has been one of the best-performing beauty categories throughout 2020, but we were eager to discover which buys—be they makeup, bodycare, haircare, or skincare—were most sought after, particularly somewhere like ASOS, which is well stocked with both affordable and high-end brands alike. And now, we have the answer.  We consulted our friends at ASOS HQ to find out what the best-selling ASOS beauty products have been this year. Scroll below to see them for yourself, and if you haven’t already tried them, we suggest adding them to your next order.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are lo...

My eyelashes have lived a life of neglect, they’ve been forgotten, cast aside and treated with a significant amount of unbothered-ness. I’ve never had long lashes, they’re very fine and almost baby hair like and I’m actually, not that concerned as that’s why we have false lashes.  I wear said lashes on a daily basis, hence my natural lash neglect. But, as I’ve been going a bit more low-key of late, wearing a full set of fluffy lashes for a video call at 9am is a bit much, even for me.  So, I’ve been diligently dusting off my mascaras and found a Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler aka one of the best in the game. I used it and was so impressed by how much lift and curl it gave my lashes. Clearly my lashes aren’t the problem, I just ...

As a daily false lash-wearer, I’ve been waiting for a moment like this. A moment filled with innovation, possibility and change. Slightly dramatic, but alas, there’s not much excitement happening in this product category.  We have eyelashes, we have glue and then there might be the occasional nifty application tool, but that’s it. That’s our lot. Honestly, my eyelids were craving some newness, especially as we’re in the age of the face covering.  Eylure aka the lash pros, seemingly heard my pleas as they’ve just launched the most exciting lash product I’ve seen in the 10 years I’ve been wearing lashes for.  Are you ready for this? Eylure Line & Lash (£10) is an eyeliner and wait for it… a lash glue. An ...

Well, it coats just as well as it separates and volumises as well as it lengthens. You won’t need an eyelash curler, as it gives lashes a natural curl, and thanks to the nifty brush, every lash will be covered. The formula is buildable, so you can go for a natural look or add more coats for greater volume without it looking spidery (unless that’s your thing).  As it excels at lifting lashes without the fibres dropping down, it’s a must for sensitive eyes, too.  Maybelline clearly knows a thing or two about mascaras, so here are some of its other affordable buys.

Now, when it comes to beauty advent calendars, you fall into one of two camps—either you prefer to keep the contents of each drawer a complete surprise, or you insist on knowing exactly what to expect to find inside before you buy. Should you identify with the latter, you’ll be pleased to hear we’ve procured the full list below. A word of caution, however; once you see exactly what the £215 Liberty beauty advent calendar will get you, you’ll struggle to find an excuse not to treat yourself (or a very lucky someone) to it. Diptyque Baies Mini Scented Candle 70g (Full Size) Venn Age-reversing All in One Concentrate 20ml Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream 50ml Malin+Goetz Meadowfoam Balm 30ml Noble Isle Fireside Body Lotion 50ml & Fireside Shower Bath & Shower Gel 50ml (Full ...

But then I actually saw them in the flesh and got touchy, feely, and all of my preconceptions went straight out of the window. The Colour Sticks appear at first to be multi-purpose sticks ideal for creative types that like to paint their faces like true artists, however when you get up close and personal with them, they are so much more. Sure you can use them as creative crayons, but you can also utilise them in a much more wearable way, too. Of course, there is the odd bright, electric shade, but the majority are seriously wearable. Think browns, nudes and pinks that can be worn day or night, making them the perfect makeup choice for those, like me, who don’t want to spend too much time on their faces in the morning. Simply pick your shade, scribble over lids, dab onto cheeks and blot ont...

If you’ve ever had someone say to your face, “You look tired,” you know how irksome and annoying it can be. The phrase might seem well-meaning and empathetic, but I already feel exhausted, so I don’t need extra confirmation from an outside source. Yeah, I’m tired. What are you going to do about it? If it doesn’t involve tucking me into bed and allowing me to forget everything on my to-do list, I don’t want to hear it! While the best solution for “looking tired” is to get more sleep, it’s not doable all the time. You might have to stay up late working on a big project for work. You might have a case of insomnia. And, you know, we all have those nights where we find ourselves losing track of time as we scroll through Insta...

Let’s start with the shades themselves. Spice, a mid-toned beige, is a wonderfully deep and warming nude. Pose, a more mauvey nude, has a strong ’90s vibe to it without feeling dated. For those who prefer a hint of colour, Pop is the perfect cherry red, and Pout offers up a pale coral pink pigment suited perfectly to no-makeup makeup days. There’s no doubt that there’s something for everyone.  The packaging is every bit as chic as you’d expect, too. Housed in a super-slim but substantial and weighty case, patterned with the now-iconic VB Beauty tortoiseshell design, it’s the sort of lipstick you want to have out on the table at dinner. However, the most impressive thing, of course, is the formula itself. Deliciously buttery, ultranourishing, and impressively pigme...

They’re the feature that helps to define the face but also the most challenging to get right. Of course, I’m talking about eyebrows. Since we still find ourselves donning masks for much of the time, with our eyes and brows serving as our most prominent beauty markers, never before has shaping, sculpting, and filling our eyebrows been such a priority. But as I’ve already noted, it’s all too easy to make a mess of them—just one pluck can be the difference between perfectly symmetrical and mismatched brows. Then, of course, there are products to consider. With pencils and brushes and pens and gels and pomades all at our disposal, finding the best eyebrow products for you is no small feat, which is why I’ve called in some reinforcements. I spok...

Most beauty advent calendars tend to sell out within hours of their release, so it makes sense that brands are now providing us with information on the covetable beauty buy well in advance of the on-sale date; and that’s precisely what happened this week when our inboxes started to fill with imagery and press releases from some of our favourite brands, each pertaining to their beauty advent calendar offering. With so many to choose from, we decided to make it easier for you to find the perfect beauty advent calendar to treat yourself to by listing them all in one place.  Laying everything out, from release dates to product worths, keep scrolling to discover the best beauty advent calendars this year has to offer.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Onli...
