THE MANE EVENT Issy Chamberlain from CWM’s editorial team recently put Minimalist’s Maleic Bond Repair Complex (https://global.beminimalist.co, £11.99) to the test. She tells us, “This is the holy grail for those on a hair journey. Bonding treatments have skyrocketed in popularity over recent years, and this combo really meets the mark. Start with the serum, working its magic for up to an hour, then move onto the Maleic Bond Repair Complex 3.5% Shampoo (£11.99). Finish with a hair mask and you’ll leave the shower feeling like those women on the shampoo adverts! This combo is packed full of vitamins and do-good ingredients to take your hair from zero to hero.” Beauty editor Kelly Andrews rounds up the latest must-haves BUZZ Beauty ANTI-AGEING EXCELLENCE I had the opportunity to put Elizabeth Grant’s Collagen Re-Inforce range to the test along with the hero product, Supreme Essence of Torricleumn (www.elizabethgrantuk.com, £70) and wasn’t disappointed. I love the ultra-lightweight formula of the latter. My dry skin absorbs it in a heartbeat, and it provides an excellent hydrated base for the rest of my skincare. I often just apply it and go since it leaves my skin brightened and revitalised on its own. I’m not a fan of heavy formulas that sit on the skin and leave a greasy residue behind, so I love the Collagen Re-Inforce 3D Advanced Face Lift Day Cream (£56) and Night Cream (£65), which absorb quickly and leave behind a smooth, nourished feel. The Night Cream works overnight to firm and tighten the skin while restoring lost moisture, which makes it a winner for me. My skin literally breathes a sigh of relief! WIDE AWAKE Olivia Gibson from CWM’s editorial team tried out Image Skincare’s Vital C Hydrating Eye Recovery Gel (https://imageskincare.co.uk, £68). Here’s what she had to say: “After trying countless eye creams to tackle my tired, dark under-eyes with little success, I finally came across this gem. The lightweight, refreshing gel absorbs quickly and provides a burst of hydration, thanks to its antioxidant-rich formula. I apply it twice daily, morning and evening, and have noticed a visible improvement: the under-eye area appears brighter, more hydrated, and those fine lines are noticeably softened. It’s become an essential part of my skincare routine! 58
