Hello Sunday The Take-Out One Invisible Sun Stick SPF30 with Hyaluronic Acid
30g full-size, RRP £20
We all know that the British summertime weather can be unpredictable, but pop this handy SPF stick from top Australian sun care brand Hello Sunday in your handbag for easy sun protection application in a flash. It’s also super useful for easily missed spots such as noses, hairlines and around the edges of clothing.
The benefits:
-
Water and sweat-resistant formula has an invisible finish, which doesn’t transfer or stain clothes
-
Non-liquid broad-spectrum SPF30 protection against UVA/UVB rays
-
Hydrates, nourishes and improves firmness and elasticity in the skin without leaving residue on your skin or hair
How to use:
Apply generously to dry skin half an hour before sun exposure as the last step in your skincare routine before applying make-up. You won’t need to get your hands dirty as this travel-friendly SPF is non-liquid and can be directly swept onto your face and body for easy, mess-free application. We recommend five swipes over your face and reapply every two hours.
Gruum Solstråler After Sun Face Oil
30ml full-size, RRP £15
We all know that we should avoid getting sunburnt at all costs, but if, despite best efforts, your skin has seen a bit too much sun – or just feels more parched than usual – this face oil will help to soothe and repair it. It’s a 100% natural formula of nourishing plant oils that sink in easily and leave skin glowing.
The benefits:
-
Soothes and repairs sun-blushed skin after catching a few too many rays
-
Combats UV damage, speeds up wound healing and calms redness and sunburn
-
Promotes cell regeneration to diminish fine lines and wrinkles
How to use:
After sun exposure, cleanse your skin, removing any lingering SPF. Add a few drops to the palm of your hand or directly onto the affected area. Using your new Glow Core Gua Sha massage the oil into your skin until it’s fully absorbed.
For best results, apply immediately after showering or bathing, when your pores are clear and open.
Glowcore Gua Sha
Full-size, RRP £10.80
Using a gua sha is one of the easiest – and budget-friendly – ways to depuff the face, boost circulation and achieve more defined facial contours in just a few minutes a day, and it takes up so little space compared to many other tools. Use it after applying the grüum face oil for a mini facial at home.
The benefits:
-
Increases the absorption of skincare ingredients and lifts and firms skin
-
Promotes circulation, reduces inflammation and aids lymphatic drainage
-
Relaxing contouring massage relaxes tight muscles and helps you unwind
How to use:
The best time to use your Gua Sha is at the treat step in your skincare routine. This tool works great paired with the Gruum Solstråler After Sun Face Oil or your favourite serum.
To start, hold the Gua Sha so it touches the skin at a 35-45 degree angle (but it doesn’t have to be exact!) and apply light to medium pressure. Glide the Gua Sha in even upward and outward motions across your face and neck, repeating on both sides.
Top tip! Store your new Gua Sha in the fridge prior to use for an extra cooling effect to further reduce puffiness.

Amphora Aromatics Mint and Dead Sea Salts Deep Cleansing Face Mask
100ml full-size, RRP £14.40
The skin can produce more oil when the weather’s warm, potentially leading to blocked pores, and so this oil-absorbing clay mask is a must in summer if you’re prone to breakouts; I like to apply it just to my T-zone, where I’m prone to occasional blemishes. It’ll leave skin perfectly clean, and ready to absorb the maximum benefits from the rest of your skincare.

-
Deeply pore cleansing clay mask for acne-prone skin
-
Draws out impurities and helps balance oily complexions

Absorbs excess oil, helps hydrate soothe and tone the skin
