A drawer full of beauty products? That’s so last year. But a smoother and fresher you, with just a few staples? Hello...
OK: either you already own a Cetaphil product or you’ve been eyeing one up.
No matter if you’re a total skincare newbie or an aficionado going back to basics, this is the definition of simple but effective.
“The first thing most people with sensitive skin do is ditch their skincare products and use water only. This neither cleans the skin effectively, nor does it treat any possible underlying causes of skin issue,” explains Dr Alia Ahmed, Cetaphil’s consultant dermatologist.
Designed to cleanse and hydrate, this gentle formula is hypoallergenic, soap-free and approved by the British Skin Foundation. It’s suitable for daily use on the face and body for normal to dry skin and all ages.
“Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser contains ingredients like niacinamide, panthenol and glycerin, which improve hydration,” says Dr Ahmed.1
So, whether you’re taking off a full night’s face or introducing the tween in your life to skincare (no, they don’t need retinol or that £30 eye cream) you can rest assured that a fresh-feeling complexion is on the cards.
For best results, cleanse without water. Apply liberally and gently massage into the skin, then remove the excess with a cloth. Follow with the Cetaphil Moisturising Cream for a practically effortless morning and evening routine.
How does your hairdresser give you the best wash of all time? Well, their expertise comes into it – but a thorough hose down of your scalp helps too.
If your hair feels congested and ‘product-y’ even after a wash, this ultra-purifying shampoo could be the way to go.
Salicylic acid helps to gently exfoliate the scalp, budging product buildup and excess oil, while oil-absorbing oatmeal helps bring that super-clean feeling.2,3
Use as you would your normal shampoo – massage into wet hair and scalp, then rinse thoroughly. Follow up with Q+A Clarifying Conditioner for extra sleekness.
And right on cue: the Clarifying Shampoo’s perfect partner, this conditioner smooths hair without weighing it down, leaving it feeling moisturised and fresh.
Use on hair that could do with extra shine but is prone to feeling gunky with lots of product.
Like the shampoo, it’s expertly blended with salicylic acid (usually seen in skincare, but it’s making a splash in hair too). Oatmeal soothes stressed-out scalps and balancing prebiotics give your delicate skin microbiome some extra goodness.
Apply to the length of your hair and massage in. Leave for one to three minutes before rinsing out.
Is your hair on the Noughty list? Maybe it’s a little dull or (gasp) you’ve gone too hard with the straighteners.
It’s not too late to turn things around! Those wanting extra shine and heat protection can count on Let’s Bond, an intense leave-in treatment with an Amino Complex designed to help nurture your hair’s delicate bonds.
Massage through freshly washed, damp hair (preferably after using Let’s Bond Shampoo and Conditioner). Do not rinse. Style as normal and enjoy the shine.
Colouring and styling don't have to mean a lifetime of frazzled hair – it just needs proper protection. With the right care, you can be a little bit Noughty...
Want to make the swap to natural deodorant? Or maybe you’re still in the stinky trenches with your current brand.
For pits that are a little fussy, treat them to this heavenly coconut, almond and vanilla starter pack. Not only is the pink pebble-shaped case gorgeous, but it’s yours for life – when you’ve finished your deodorant, pop in a refill and go again.
You might have spotted Fussy on Dragons’ Den, and it’s only been up from there. They promise 24-hour protection and no white marks – just a holiday-smelling, probiotic deodorant that lasts up to eight weeks.
Want to switch your scents up? No problem: you can also pick Cloud Nine, a luxurious white cotton and vetiver blend, or the invigorating Tropic Tonic with lime, basil and mandarin.
OK, ‘acids’ and ‘gentle skincare’ don’t sound like they belong together. But if you know, you know.
Say goodbye to scratchy sugar scrubs and perfumed pore-cloggers. Three acids share the spotlight in this 2-in-1 moisturiser, designed to gently exfoliate the face and body.
Salicylic acid, mandelic acid and gluconolactone leave skin feeling renewed and clean on the daily. It’s specially formulated to reduce roughness, whether you’re tackling ‘strawberry legs’ or you just want a fresher face every day.
Rather than scratchy physical exfoliators, the acid trio shifts dead skin build-up and helps nourish the fragile skin barrier. Shea butter, panthenol (a form of vitamin B5) and gluconolactone condition the skin for ultimate silkiness from top to toe.
Apply to the face and body after cleansing, preferably with the Cetaphil Gentle Exfoliating Salicylic Acid Cleanser. Gentle enough for daily use.
Are you ready for this jelly? Sorry, we had to.
We left crunchy, scrunchy waves in 2010... but we’ve entered the rebirth of the curly girl, this time with glossy, defined coils.
Noughty’s Hello Curl Scrunching Jelly offers shaping, body and medium hold to your natural hair pattern, alongside a blend of vitamin and mineral-rich sea botanicals including sea fennel and conditioning Irish moss.4
Coat damp curls with the jelly from lengths to ends. Scrunch dry with a diffuser or leave to air dry.
Never sticky and always shiny, it’s a must for a put-together look. Be ready in minutes, feel your best and give your hair a treat for good behaviour.
The final say
Whether you’re globetrotting this summer – or just grabbing sun between meetings – you can do it feeling more radiant than ever. Here’s to a quick upgrade...
