These high-performance, easy-to-use toner pads are designed to brighten, firm and strengthen skin in one simple step. Set to redefine skin prep, they merge high-performance exfoliation with barrier-supporting innovation, delivering visible results without compromising skin health. £56, sephora.co.uk Sustainability HERO Kay Beauty has introduced its new Infinite Lip Pen, a sleek, highperformance lip colour designed to deliver the intensity of a liquid lipstick in a retractable stylo format. Created for bold, one-swipe payoff, the Infinite Lip Pen combines long-lasting pigment with a lightweight, comfortable feel. The transfer-proof formula glides on smoothly, delivering a soft-matte finish that stays in place without feathering, caking or dryness. Meanwhile, hyaluronic acid, olive squalane and jojoba oil keep lips nourished and hydrated throughout the day. Sounds like a bride’s dream to me! £15, spacenk.com/uk My Skin Feels highlights how innovative ingredient sourcing can help reduce waste while delivering effective, skinloving formulations. Its fascinating approach centres on rescued food ingredients, which would otherwise be discarded by the organic food industry. Through gentle fermentation and advanced processing, these by-products release antioxidants, amino acids and skinsoothing compounds that help hydrate, protect and balance the skin. With skincare formulas that are more than 99 per cent natural and designed for sensitive and eczema-prone skin, My Skin Feels demonstrates how beauty innovation can deliver results while reducing environmental impact.
