Yope Salvia & Green Caviar Natural Hand Cream, £7.99
This rich, silky hand cream is from one of my favourite cult brands. It sinks in fast, makes skin look and feel hydrated straight away, plus the zesty scent is so uplifting that it’s now a bag, desk and bedside table staple. Another bonus? The packaging is so happy-making you’ll want to stockpile all three scents in the range. EC
Olverum Bath Oil Travel Set, £18 for 3
Gloriously aromatic (the herbal scent lingers in the bathroom long after your soak), this is also truly therapeutic, helping you relax mentally and physically. It’s especially good before bed – I swear it helps you have a better night’s sleep – and to perk you up when you feel under the weather. The travel trio of bottles is enough for nine blissful baths.

Neal’s Yard Remedies Aromatherapy Blend Womens Balance, £15.50
This feelgood blend of patchouli, rose and geranium oils was recommended to me by a fellow beauty editor and after one sniff I was hooked. A couple of drops mixed into almond or coconut oil makes a beautifully scented, moisturising body treat, or I inhale a little dotted on to a tissue when I’m rushing around and need to take a deep breath.

Dr Lipp Tint, £6.99
These pretty hint-of-atint balms are great for everyday moisture and shine. Amazingly, each has a total of just four ingredients, one of which is the vegetable pigment they get their natural-looking colour from. Think elderberry, sweet potato and red radish tones with a nourishing boost. AF
Simple Kind To Skin Biodegradable Cleansing Wipes, £4.39
With terms like ‘fatberg’ ringing eco alarm bells, I applaud Simple for stepping up with the first massmarket, biodegradable make-up wipes. They’re made from sustainable wood pulp so will home compost in a swift 42 days, but are still powerful enough to take off waterproof mascara without alcohol or harsh cleansing agents. CB
