IRON IT OUT

If you’re keen to master the sleek Noughties-inspired lengths worn by Naomi and Gigi at the recent Fendace show, Paul Percival of Percy & Reed says the 7inch Vinyl Gloss styling treatment is the only way to go

‘There are three different Vinyl

Gloss treatments, but to get the Fendace look the 7inch technique is perfect. It begins in salon with Redken Shades EQ clear gloss toner, which revives, tones and refreshes hair colour, hydrates and gives an amazing mirror-like shine. Then we use the 7inch straightening technique where we use straighteners in a motion of ‘7’ to achieve the perfect pokerstraight style. The Redken gloss lasts for up to 20 washes and can really help when styling your own hair post-gloss.’ £69 at Percy & Reed, 157C Great Portland Street, W1 (percyandreed.com)

SPOTLIGHT ON

The Seated Queen Cold Cream is a three-in-one multi-tasker that can be used as a make-up remover, for a speedy facial or as an overnight mask. Enriched with a mix of nourishing and hydrating cold-pressed, organic borage seed, argan oil, rosehip, safflower seed, sunflower seed oils and shea butter, this concoction is packed with vitamins and antioxidants — high concentrations of GLA, linoleic and oleic acids ward off cell-damaging free radicals, as well as working to plump, soothe and strengthen skin. £39, at cultbeauty.co.uk
