I’m an easily influenced shopper, but these are the six products I don’t regret buying

Why we love it: It helps hair grow in no time

One of the very first products TikTok influenced me to buy was this hair oil. And sure enough, years later, it’s still one of the most important steps in my haircare routine. My hair has grown inches from simply using a few drops and massaging into my scalp once a week.

It also has me waking up to silky smooth locks the next day (after a wash), and with peace of mind that I’m doing what I can to help my hair grow.

Our rating: 9/10

Key features:

• Infused with Biotin
• Features more than 30 essential oils and extracts
• Rosemary scent

Why we love it: Repairs colour-damaged hair

Another haircare product I swear by is the K18 leave-in hair mask – recommended to me by my hairdresser after she took one look at my dyed and damaged locks and knew we had to act.

The mask activates within minutes after applying to damp hair and soaks up immediately for a lightweight feel. My hair already feels much healthier after using it for a few months.

Our rating: 8/10

Key features:

• Works on the molecular level to reverse hair damage in just 4 minutes
• Helps restore strength, softness, smoothness and bounce to hair

Why we love it: Leaves skin feeling soft and smooth

When I first heard of Snail Mucin as skincare, I was sceptical. However, after seeing all the reviews and hearing people rave about it, I knew I had to give it a chance. And I’m so glad I did.

It’s ultra-hydrating (perfect for dry skin) and absorbs right into the skin so you can go ahead with the next step in your skincare routine without feeling too heavy.

Our rating: 7/10

Key features:

• Helps damaged skin
• Helps improve skin elasticity
• Maintains hydration level all day long

Why we love it: The perfect lightweight sunscreen

As someone who is a little guilty of skipping sunscreen in my daily routine, I knew I had to find the right one to make it stick. Sure enough, this lightweight formula makes it easy to remember and apply every single day.

Unlike other sunscreens, it doesn’t leave your skin looking shiny afterwards or leave behind a white cast. La Roche-Posay, I dare say, is worth the hype.

Our rating: 7/10

Key features:

• SPF 50+
• Ultra-light invisible and non-shiny finish
• Suitable for sensitive skin

Why we love it: Leaves lashes fluffy and full of volume

Finding a mascara that gives you volume without the clumps is hard. But, after going through an entire tube of this one I can honestly say I’ve never had an issue. It adds instant volume to my lashes and leaves them looking fluffy all day long.

Plus, it’s easy to build and layer up without them looking crazy afterwards. Perfect if you’re someone who gets a little carried away (like me).
