For those of you that lead very busy lives, I know how difficult it is when walking around department stores on a quest to find life-changing beauty products. To save you time and energy, I have compiled my favourite Summer products that I quite frankly, could not live without. I want to help you transform your daily routine into a luxurious and wholly beneficial experience!

1.) Jorgobe – Hydrating Glow Serum

So this product is the most expensive, retailing at £40, yet it will be sure to last you a very long time! The serum is a nutrient-rich combination of botanical oils that aim to improve the elasticity of the skin and protect it against premature ageing. I would recommend this for those of you reading that are aged between 25-35. It is a very lightweight formula that is quickly on the skin and offers an instant hydration boost.

How to use:

  1. Apply in morning and night on clean skin
  2. Place 6-8 drops into the palm of your hand
  3. Gently rub your palms together to activate the serum
  4. Massage the serum into your face and neck in circular motions

2.) Herbal Dynamics – Smoothing Lip Mask

Firstly, is purple! I would buy this product simply because of the gorgeous colouring of it. It retails at £26 and is perfect for date night occasions when you want your lips to look luscious. Within the space of a few minutes of applying the mask, you get fuller-looking lips that are soft and moistured.

  1. Mist on freshly cleansed skin and pat into the skin

4.) Aromatherapy – Bath and Shower Oils

Aromatherapy is known for showcasing the therapeutic effects of natural oils. After being introduced to the brand last year while at a spa retreat, I first-hand witnessed the transformative effects of oils on the mind, body and skin. The oils are hand-blended in London and each oil has attributes for complimenting your specific needs.

For Morning Sleepyheads: introducing Morning Revive

It is a perfect start for the day as it has invigorating powers of grapefruit, rosemary and juniper essential oils help to awaken your senses

  2. Step into a warm bath or shower
  3. Support breathe bath and shower oil

For Stressed-out Workaholics: introducing Support Breathe

This oil is perfect for the colder months, when long haul trips are taking a toll or when work is causing you to feel under permanent stress. You need a time out to breathe. The oil has high concentrations of hand-blended pine, tea tree and eucalyptus essential oils which release soothing vapours to clear, ease heaviness and support jaded energy.

  2. Cupping hands to face and inhale three times
  3. Put 2-3 drops on a tissue and inhale

5.) Oh k! Duo Face Masks & Patchology – Wink & Kiss

These are in my opinion, the best face masks on the market. Oh K! is a Japanese make, the clay mask is ideal for those who want a detoxifying and cleansing experience. The bubble mask is quite a fun product as it has O2 bubbling action, which formulates after 10 minutes of applying. The bubbling helps to lift dirt and dead skin cells leaving your skin soft!

Patchology is my go-to Face Masks for all travel. The face masks do not contain too much liquid so they are not messy and ideal to slip into your hand luggage carry on (in a clear container of course!). The lip treatment is perfect for a pamper nights as it provides deep hydration, quick moisture, and soften your pout. The eye masks are my absolute favourite as they actually lift tired eyes and can transform your circles into a fresh 8-hour sleep you! Plus they are very cooling which can help aid anxiety.

6.) Bdk Parfums – Tubereuse Imperiale

It is always quite difficult to explain the scent of something but I have researched into the ingredients of this perfume and really want to try to convey the beautifully unique scent. The top notes are pink peppercorn and geranium of Egypt. The heart notes are tuberose of India, ylang-ylang of Comoros, sambac jasmine, iris and jasmine of Egypt. The base notes are cashmeran, sandalwood, incense of Somalia, vanilla of Madagascar, patchouli of Singapour and benzoin of Sumatra cypress. Buying a smaller sample can sometimes be the best thing to do when purchasing perfumes before fully committing.

Always buy products that do not test on animals!

7.) Perricone MD – Blue Plasma Cleansing Treatment

One of the best products for travel on the market as it does everything, even including removing makeup! The 2 in 1 no-rinse treatment deeply cleanses as it gently exfoliates and conditions. It leaves the skin plumped, more youthful-looking, giving you a softer complexion and it simultaneously unclogs pores from deep within.

How to use

  1. Saturate cotton pad and apply all over the face
  2. Follow with moisturizer
