Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dewy Flush Brightening Serum Blush

They say: A tinted cheek serum from Glow Recipe that features three per cent niacinamide, watermelon extract and jojoba oil-coated pigments to hydrate and plump while adding a ‘dewy flush’ of colour.

We say: In a word, these tinted blush sera are “awesome,” our testers report. The product is easy to apply thanks to the sponge-tip applicator.

Blended in with a compact-bristle brush, our tester found a few dots of product provided a nice, natural flush while additional layers gave a more dramatic pop of colour. This may be the blush product to sway non-blush fans thanks to its easy application and skin-plumping effect.

Briogeo New Dry Shampoo Puff

They say: A dry shampoo powder with a built-in puff for easy application. This finely milled formula is available in two options — translucent and dark — to work on all hair colours. The talc-free formula helps to absorb oil without drying out the scalp.

We say: This dry shampoo puff is perfect for an on-the-go hair refresh. Our tester found the tinted version worked really well to reduce the appearance of oil near the roots — without leaving any telltale white cast on strands. Plus, the petite packaging makes it a perfect addition to a purse or travel bag.

Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm. Handout/ (single use)

Naturium Phyto-Glow Lip Balm

They say: A lip balm available in tinted and non-tinted that features lip-nourishing ingredients such as shea, cupuaçu butter and plant-derived squalene.
