Mernie Gilmore finds out what’s hot to shop this week

PAMPER

If you’re looking for a bath soak that’s kind to skin and contains only a few simple ingredients, Westlab’s new Salt Shack range could be for you. Available in four delicious flavours – Cherry Dreams, Mango Madness, Melon Heaven and Mint Magic – these skinsoftening mineral salt soaks will definitely brighten up bathtime. Available at Boots and Asda.

HOME

We love George at Home for super-stylish and great-value homeware, and the new ranges for autumn don’t disappoint. If you want to smarten up your dinner table, snap up this chic monochrome dining set. The geometric white and black pattern with gold detailing looks far more expensive than its £25 price tag. Available at Asda from the end of the month.

HAIR

Celebrity stylist Lee Stafford knows all about good hair – and he’s on a mission to give you just that by boosting scalp health. His new Scalp Love collection is designed to treat either a dry, flaky scalp or thinning hair. The Scalp Love Surge of Moisture Leave-in Tonic, £5.99, contains nourishing and soothing cactus and aloe vera to hydrate and calm skin. Find it at Boots.

WEAR

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of David Bowie’s classic album Hunky Dory, jewellery brand Tatty Devine has launched a range inspired by the legendary rock star and his work. There is lots to choose from, including a Life on Mars broach and Ziggy Suit necklace, but we love these glittering lightning bolt earrings, £38, tattydevine.com.

KIDS

Yes, it’s still the summer holidays. So if you’re looking for an easy way to lure children off screens and do something more productive, then try The Phoenix comic, which is packed with brilliant comic characters and stories. It’s aimed at children aged 7-14. Get four issues for just £1 at thephoenixcomic.co. uk or find it at WH Smiths.
