BEAUTY SPOT

New products and launches to get excited about

The mane event

Ballinteer-born hairdresser to the stars Andrew Fitzsimons has taken his 20 years of experience in the industry (he’s only 32, but he dropped out at 13), creating Kardashian cover shoots, Met Gala looks and beauty campaigns to create a wardrobe of hair essentials that start at €2.50. Run, don’t walk, to your nearest Penneys.

CROWNING GLORY

Did you know that seven out of ten Irish women experience hair-fall in their life? The new Genesis range from Kérastase protects the scalp, strengthens hair and makes it more resilient, while hardening the hair bulb that causes hair-fall. Think of it as a skincare routine for the hair.

LIVE FAST, STAY YOUNG

FROM YSL’S BOTANICAL RESEARCH AREA, THE OURIKA GARDENS IN MARRAKECH, COMES ITS PURE SHOTS RANGE. THERE’S A SKIN RESURFACING NIGHT REBOOT SERUM, LIGHT UP BRIGHTENING SERUM, Y SHAPE FIRMING SERUM, LINES AWAY SERUM, A HYDRATING LOTION AND A SKIN-PLUMPING CREAM, AND EACH TARGETS THE EFFECTS OF MODERN LIFE ON THE SKIN.

Under the skin

“I believe great skin is 70 per cent what you put in your mouth and 30 per cent what you put on your face,” make-up artist Bobbi Brown told IMAGE back in 2015. Having conquered what you put on your face, she’s now working on that 70 per cent with Evolution_18 (now in Boots) – seven truly delicious

beauty ingestibles designed to target beauty concerns and give you healthier hair, stronger nails, shinier

skin and a boost from within.
