WHAT WE’RE LOVING THIS WEEK:

■ Life really does begin at 40 – just ask Barry M.

The highstreet icon is celebrating the milestone in colourful style, kicking off with six limitededition Birthday Gelly Nail Paints, £3.99, a special edition of That’s Swell! XXL Lip Plumper, £4.99, and a party-ready palette of 40 shades, £17.99, pictured above.

■ Some higher factor sun creams can be hard to absorb or leave a chalky film on skin. Not Clear Glow SPF50, £36, right, by Naked Sundays

– the world’s first transparent SPF50.

The clear gel formula is different – it looks and feels more like a primer than suncare.

■ Beauty brand

Becca was sadly discontinued last year, but now two of its most iconic products have been scooped into the loving embrace of Smashbox and given a permanent place to live. So you can stop eking out your stash of Shimmering Skin Perfector, £30, and Under Eye Brightening Corrector, £24, above, because they are back for good, and in the case of the latter, with an extended shade range, too. You’ll find Smashbox x BECCA exclusively at Beauty Bay.
