And because we love a multi-tasker…. this one boasts the luminous finish of a foundation, the hydrating and anti-ageing ingredients of a serum and the pore-minimising feel of a primer. Three big ticks!

Was $70 Now $63.20
Why we love it: I picked up this beauty after reading this Mesoestetic Review article, and honestly, I’m so glad I did. After spending too many summers neglecting SPF (and I have the pigmentation to prove it), I’ve been on a mission to keep sun spots in check. This tinted sunscreen offers very high protection while helping regulate melanin synthesis for a preventative anti-spot effect.

Their micro-molecular size allows active ingredients to reach deeper layers of the skin for quicker results.The formula also contains 13 age-reversing peptides and micro-filler hyaluronic acid. It’s impressive stuff. Our team member - and resident Beauty Therapist - Jess wrote a great article breaking down the formula (and science) here.
L'Oreal Professional Metal Detox Masque
Why we love it: Dull, frizzy or damaged locks? Environmental aggressors like hard water, air pollution and metal-heavy products could be playing culprit.
L’Oreal’s Metal Detox range works diligently to improve hair texture and neutralise those pesky metal particles that are quietly accumulating in strands (and wreaking havoc).
Rich and lush, the treatment mask is powered by glicoamine to neutralise metals, boost shine, colour vibrancy and deeply nourish hair. After a month of use my hair feels stronger, silkier and oh-so smooth.
Aveda Shampure Nurturing Shampoo
Was $99 Now $74.25
Why we love it: Aveda never misses when it comes to aroma and this calming blend of 25 pure flower and plant essences makes wash day feel a little extra spa-like.
The formula is 95% naturally derived, silicone free and satisfyingly foamy. Abyssinian oil gives lightweight nourishment (without flattening the roots) for softer, squeaky-clean strands.
Best of all? These cult formulas are now available in a tidy 1L value bottle. Saving you money and time, all while reducing plastic waste. Litres cost 28% less per ml and use up to 28% less plastic. It's the ultimate win-win-win scenario.

Aloe vera keeps things soothed while vitamin E reinforces moisture levels so skin stays soft, supple and stress-free.
La Roche-Posay Hyalu B5 Serum
Was $100.95 Now $75.71
