If you’re experiencing lockdown beauty troubles, here are some simple hacks to help you cope…
We’re nearly into the eighth week of the UK’s lockdown and salons remain closed: if you’re struggling with anything from root growth to dull skin, we can totally empathise.
Here are some handy hacks to help you get through the next few weeks…
Headscarves are a great way to cover untidy roots – and they’re sooo Instagrammable. Trawl eBay for bargains if you don’t already have a collection
To alleviate dry and chapped hands, stop wearing your rings for a few days – contact dermatitis (sometimes known as ‘ring rash’) can be exacerbated by increased hand-washing
High ponytails and topknots cover a multitude of sins, from split ends to growing-out layers

If you usually have your body hair waxed, you’re probably reaching for the razor right about now – to make the experience more successful, shave with shaving cream and a new, sharp razor, then use comforting aloe vera gel afterwards to prevent razor burn
If you’re struggling to look glam on video calls, invest in a pair of heavy rimmed glasses; all the celebs are it (see Gwyneth Paltrow and Demi Moore for details) – and you’ll save a fortune on highlighter!
If you’re stuck indoors, why not give your skin a sun-kissed look? Self-tan is way kinder to your skin than exposure to direct sunlight – and even if your golden glow is behind closed doors, it can still give you a wellbeing boost. Check out the self tan available on Beauty Flash
