BUYERS' PICKS: THE FACE + BODY ROUNDUP

By Ayis Stephen-Diver, 1 April 2024

The Face + Body buyers are our go-to beauty experts, so of course we had to get their take on the hottest just-dropped products. Every base is covered here, from skincare sets (that you can save on) to iconic makeup items that’ll level up your routine. Without further ado, here's some new items for your bag!

INCA, SENIOR ASSISTANT BUYER

Caudalie The Brightening Edit - 28% Saving, £52

'The Caudalie Vinoperfect Serum will always be a staple in my skincare routine. It offers glowing, plump and healthy-looking skin in a bottle. This set also allows you to try the brightening eye cream and moisturiser for the price of the serum. If you've seen this on your FYP, this is another co-sign!'

CARRIE, SENIOR ASSISTANT BUYER

Revolution Skin Silk Serum Foundation, £11

'This foundation's been amazing as I change up my makeup routine from my winter variant to my spring one, as it's really lightweight for sunnier days. This makes it the perfect everyday foundation and it gives the most gorgeous glow-from-within effect to the skin!'

AIMEE, ASSISTANT BUYER

OUAI Hair Gloss 177ml, £30

'This has become a haircare essential for me; not only does it make my hair look super glossy and add a nice lustre, it's really good for damaged hair. I think the rice water and hyaluronic acid do wonders to lock in moisture and keep your hair looking and feeling fab.'

NATASHA, SENIOR ASSISTANT BUYER

Charlotte Tilbury Magic Hydrator Mist, £35

'I'm in love with this mist from Charlotte Tilbury! It can be used morning or evening, or you can spray it on the go. I like to spritz on top of my makeup because during the day you can lose a lot of moisture – it's v refreshing and leaves your skin feeling glowy and hydrated.'

EMMA, ESTABLISHED BUYER

Huda Beauty Faux Filler Gloss- Honey, £17.50

'I was patiently waiting for Huda Beauty to finally release a gloss and it was absolutely worth the wait! It has a nourishing, high-shine formula that isn't sticky and it pairs perfectly with the Huda Beauty Lip Contour 2.0 liner to give the illusion of a fuller pout.'

FRANKIE, BUYER

The INKEY List x ASOS Exclusive Plump & Glow Skincare Set - 42% Saving, £24

'If you've never tried The INKEY List's skincare products before, this bundle is a great entrée. You're saving 42% which is massive, and it includes all the bestsellers from the brand like the Hyaluronic Acid Serum, Oat Cleansing Balm and Tripeptide Plumping Balm.'

MAC Macximal Matte Lipstick- Velvet Teddy, £25

'MAC's matte lipsticks are nothing short of iconic, especially the Velvet Teddy shade. I can use it for any makeup look, from everyday soft glam to a smoky party vibe. It has up to 12 hours of wear too, so I don't even need to top it up!'
