7 Hair And Beauty Products You Need While You Can’t Leave The House
Your face will thank you, promise.
So, we’ve established that we’re bored in the house and we’re in the house bored, we’ve done jigsaws, baked banana bread and made 400 Dalgona coffees. Instead of trying to find ANOTHER hobby to waste away the hours, why not give your skin a helping hand while you’re cooped up indoors.
Here are some products we’ve been using and loving throughout isolation;
Being indoors can cause oily skin which annoyingly can lead to more spots. US-based brand Starface has just launched glow in the dark pimple patches and we are OBSESSED. The 32 patches come in a super cute reusable plastic case named ‘Big Yellow’, pop one on your pimple overnight to reduce angry spots and redness. Wear them even if you don’t have a pimple and just want cute stars on your face. You do you.
Glow stars launched a few days ago and are already in high demand, however, the original yellow “Hydro-Stars” are also available here.
We love The Ordinary for giving us serious skincare at really reasonable prices. ‘Buffet’ is a peptide serum made of skin-friendly amino acids including hyaluronic acid which is an amazing hydrator for your skin. Apply in between your cleanser and moisturizer, your face will drink it up and thank you. Perfect for when you’re stuck indoors, buy it here.

Faace is a new UK skincare brand offering 3 unique masks which offer different result. Pick your favorite out of Period, Tired or Sweaty and slather your Faace. The masks can be left on overnight or used as a primer, but we feel we get the best results when applied thickly, left on for 15 minutes and rinsed off. Faace has teamed up with Hey Girls initiative and donate a pack of period products to those in need for every mask sold.
