With the wearing of masks on the rise, a focus on eyes and hair is set to be a huge summer trend
Face masks and coverings have become a common sight across the globe in the wake of COVID-19. More countries are making the wearing of masks in public places mandatory, and – while they are set to play a crucial role in the fight against the virus – the masks themselves are also becoming more glamorous and exciting (see Lady Gaga’s Instagram for evidence).
Unsurprisingly, as masks should be worn to cover the nose and lower half of the face, beauty fans are going to be paying much closer attention to their eyes, brows and hair during this time.
So get ready for the trend by stocking your beauty bag with some of these fabulous products:
New from Dermalogica, Age Smart Biolumin C Eye Serum is a supercharged eye serum that outsmarts visible premature skin ageing caused by daily eye movements and environmental stress to dramatically brighten and visibly firm. Providing a boost of Vitamin C it reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and hydrates and exfoliates for smooth, healthy-looking skin.
An eye treatment used by the actor Kristen Stewart and recommended by Elle Magazine, Dermalogica Total Eye Care is an advanced alpha hydroxy eye treatment cream to help protect and repair the delicate eye area while reducing the appearance of dark circles and lines. It helps to reduce puffiness, restore translucency and freshness to the eye area, and its optical light diffusers help to minimise dark circles.
Available in Dark and Light shades, Full Brow Cosmetics Brow Fibre is a quick and easy all-in-one product to colour, shape and fill brows for fabulous voluminous brows that stay in place all day.
A restorative hair masque for fine or damaged hair, L’Oreal Professionnel Pro Fiber Re-create Masque works to smooth and hydrate damaged hair from root to tip. A professionally formulated masque, damaged hair is left feeling stronger with long-lasting protection.
For a quick boost to the delicate eye area, Dermalogica Stress Positive Eye Lift firms the skin to help generate a lifting effect. It visibly de-puffs the under eye area, energises skin and helps restore the skin’s protective barrier. It also brightens the appearance of dark circles.
Are split ends a problem? GHD’s Advanced Split End Therapy is activated by the heat of your styler to help nourish and fortify damaged ends, leaving hair feeling sleek, smooth and shiny for up to 10 washes.
To firm, lift and shape the eye contours, Medik8’s award-winning Eyelift Peptides Firming Gel contains five age-defying peptides to help plump and smooth the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also includes an anti-ageing protein complex to nourish and increase collagen production around the eye, whilst decreasing puffiness.
If you want to create dramatic eyes, Beauty Blender’s Liner Designer is a “genius” triple-edged eyeliner guide. With a straight edge that is flexible and will stay in place when gently placed against the skin, it makes eyeliner application a breeze. The triangular guide assists in achieving symmetrically lined eyes with ease, devised to help create different angles and liner shapes.
Energise and lift your roots with Pureology Clean Volume Instant Levitation Mist. A refreshing menthol-infused volumising spray for fine hair, Pureology Clean Volume provides your strands with 24-hours of lift. Providing all-over body and fullness, it’s recommended for fine and colour treated hair.
If your thick hair needs taming, Shu Uemura’s Blow Dry Beautifier BB cream for Thick Hair is a multi-benefit blow-dry perfector to provide care and control. For a flawless and effortless look, with a nude effect, it primes the hair fiber, moisturises without heaviness, smoothes and softens, helps protect from blow dry heat and shapes/reshapes any look.
