New beauty editor-approved buys worthy of your time and money

Need to cheat sleep this party season? Meet Vinoperfect Radiance Serum – packed with so much good stuff, including Caudalie’s patented Viniferine (62 times more effective than vitamin C at evening out the complexion). Use it to help prevent and correct dark spots and unlock insanely dewy, glowing skin. Apply three drops to the face, neck and décolleté, AM and PM – post-cleanse, pre-moisturiser.

Cold, isn’t it? So far, so winter – but, before you stock up on snuggly snoods and haute hats, did you know that not all head warmers are created equal? To keep warm minus the frizz, flatness and general ‘meh’ of hat hair, follow these three easy steps: 

1. To minimise post-hat flatness, prep with volumising styling products (like these), making sure hair is 100% dry.
2. Pop a zero-static, frizz-proofing spray in your bag (and if you do want restyle, think water-soluble paste, rather than wax). 
3. Choose cotton and/or cashmere hats – your lid will thank you for it. 

Famous for its chameleon-like ability to suit all skin tones – and yet look different on everyone – Clinique Almost Lipstick has dropped in a new shade, Pink Honey – and the world is excited. Just check out this five-star rave review. 

Like its sister shade, the cult classic Black Honey, Clinique Almost Lipstick Pink Honey is emollient-rich, fuss-free and very forgiving (you don’t need a mirror to apply). Not quite a lipstick, nor a gloss – it’s more of a buildable balm, delivering a sheer slip of colour that’ll enhance your natural lip tone in a swipe or two.

You could kick-start a healthy new habit in the new year and stay two steps ahead with a bath salt here or a body butter there. Me? I’ll be adding magnesium into my wind-down routine. It’s said to promote recovery after intense workouts (and work days), to refresh sluggish skin, awaken your senses, help to calm busy minds and even supercharge your shower. Yes, please. These are my top three.
