NIVEA CLAY FRESH DEEP CLEANSING SHOWER
These new, affordable shower washes from skincare brand Nivea contain kaolin clay, which pulls impurities from your pores and exfoliates the skin, too. There are three varieties in the range – floral Hibiscus & White Sage, calming aromatic Blue Agave & Lavender and refreshing Ginger & Basil. Non-drying, they leave skin soft and scented. £2, nationwide
BALANCEME TRI-MOLECULAR HYALURONIC SERUM
Whilst much skincare with hyaluronic acid (HA) contains only one type of ‘heavy molecule’ HA, which can’t penetrate the skin, this hydrating powerhouse of a serum contains multiple weights of HA – which are said to get deep beneath the skin’s surface, helping to reduce fine lines. As an aside, its essential oils derived from flowers smell divine. £30, balanceme.co.uk
NO7 HYDRALUMINOUS MOISTURISING FOUNDATION
Offering medium coverage, with a delicate blend of pearl powders that reflect the light, this new formula also contains an antioxidant complex that includes mulberry, ginseng and Vitamin E, which can help skin fight pollution. Vitamin C helps even out skin tone for the long term too. £15, Boots.com
DR ORGANIC MICELLAR CLEANSING WATERS
These smart no-mess cleansers are safe to use on the eyes as well as the face and do a thorough job of wiping away make-up and impurities without leaving your skin feeling taut or itchy afterwards. They come in two varieties. Choose from Aloe Vera for skin that’s prone to dryness or Manuka Honey water for sensitive skin. £5.99 from Holland & Barrett
VICHY CAPITAL SOLEIL BEACH PROTECT FRESH HYDRATING MILK, £19, AND ANTI-DEHYDRATION SPRAY
Vichy’s new Beach Protect range not only protects skin from the sun, it also helps combat dehydration and resist saly and chlorine damage (hello sea water and the swimming pool!). Comprised of a Fresh Hydrating Milk (lightweight and leaving definitely no white hue) and an Anti-Dehydration Spray with hyaluronic acid. Leaving no sticky mess – it’s suncare like it’s not there. We like! £18.50, nationwide
