Beauty: Last News

Part of being a model is having very little control over the look you’re given to wear for a catwalk show – a downside of the job that supermodels and genetically blessed sisters Bella Hadid and Gigi Hadid will know all too well. Despite this, you can usually recognise either sister a mile off – even when they aren’t sporting their usual model-off-duty hair and makeup looks.

Former Corrie star and Strictly Come Dancing alumna Catherine Tyldesley has just unveiled a brand new hair look with her followers – and it’s bang on trend for 2022.The actress, who is pregnant with baby number two, proudly shows off her bump and her new style in a spring-themed Instagram post.The look sees her swap her usual long and tumbling brunette hair for a shorter, below-shoulder style.

Last August saw his hotly-anticipated own haircare brand launch in the US, and in the six months that followed his UK fans have been desperate to get their hands on it. Well cue the party poppers, because as of today it’s finally available exclusively at Space NK (can we get a “yassss, henny”?), so you can shop all 11 of the products right *now*.

If you’re not familiar with dermaplaning, it’s a home facial treatment that allows you to remove peach fuzz from your face. It’s been trending on social media with some hair removal videos using the tool even racking up over 1 million likes.

You may have got your skincare routine down to a tee, but sometimes nothing quite beats the performance – and pamper – of a great salon facial treatment. Whether it’s using clinic-quality products, high-tech tools or a cheekbone-chiselling massage, a good facial will put a smile on your face and a glow to your skin.

We’ve loved seeing Liberty Poole’s gradual beauty transformation since she left the Love Island villa last summer. Gone are her extension-heavy days, and in their place is a much shorter and more natural hair look.

Ellie and Izzi Warner left viewers in hysterics as they shared a beauty trick on Gogglebox, which launched its new season last week. Speaking on the latest instalment of the show on Friday 18 February, Ellie asked her sister whether she had noticed the crease on her face.

While Lily James in Pam & Tommy may have tempted you to embrace the 90s skinny-brow trend, stop what you’re doing and step away from the tweezers – because according to TikTokers and brow experts, big, bushy eyebrows are here to stay. Gone are the days of Kim Kardashian’s perfectly sculpted Insta-brow, featuring super high arches and razor-sharp tails.

Is there anything more glamorous than awards season? With the Oscars just around the corner, our favourite A-listers are currently preparing to get red carpet ready – and it’s not as simple as just finding the right dress. For a handful of nights a year, celebrities everywhere enlist the help of the industry’s top hairstylists, makeup artists, manicurists and skin specialists, all to get camera-ready.

Rita Ora has reminded us why a full fringe is a must-have hairstyle for 2022 as she’s just unveiled some gorgeous new bangs. Posting a series of snaps to her Instagram account, the The Masked Singer star showed off her trendy new ‘do to her 16 million followers as she attended Milan Fashion Week. In one of the posts, the 31 year old can be seen posing at the dinner table with her blonde tresses styled in a chic ponytail and her bangs on full display.

Model Bella Hadid recently went viral after she shared a look at her skincare go-to for "de-puffing" her face. The glamorous 25 year old shared a carousel of pictures including a video where the model dunks her face into a bowl of ice. With the star's many catwalks, photoshoots and appearances, it comes as no surprise that looking after her skin is of utmost importance.

She may be famed for her entrepreneurial skills and impeccable dance moves but it looks like Strictly Come Dancing star Sara Davies knows a little something about skincare too. In an Instagram Reel shared with her 195K followers, everyone’s favourite “dragon” has shared the secret to her youthful, radiant complexion – and it’s not something you can buy.

At times it can feel like just about every Hollywood A-lister either has or is in the process of bringing out their own beauty brand, so you’d be forgiven for feeling a little sceptical about them. But Selena Gomez seems to have won over the masses with her makeup line Rare Beauty, with products going viral in a way we probably haven’t seen since Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty. So if you’ve been feeling a little (read: very) jealous of US shoppers who have been loving the products, you’ll be glad to hear that the brand is now available in the UK exclusively at Space NK, both in store and online.To help you decide on the contents of your next shopping spree, our beauty writer Lucy has been busy putting the products to the test for a comprehensive and honest review of some of the brand’s best sellers.

I’m fussy about foundations. I’m also not easy to please, considering I want my base to be light but relatively full coverage, sheer but not overly sheer, and long-lasting but not cakey. How could a product combine all of these things? It hasn’t been able to – until now.

Rachel Green is easily one of the most-referenced nineties beauty muses. From the earlier seasons’ layered cut that’s still nicknamed “The Rachel” to the long, sleek style of the early noughties, Jennifer Aniston’s was a head of hair that many women wanted to channel – and arguably still do. So it’s really no surprise that last year’s Love Island winner Millie Court seemed to channel Rachel on the red carpet this week.The 25 year old attended the ASOS Beauty Awards with a layered shaggy hairdo that was very reminiscent of the signature style of Jen An’s most famous character.

One of Love Island’s cutest couples, Millie Court and Liam Reardon, pressed fast -forward on relationship milestones when they moved in with each other last November. When we caught up with the winners of Love Island 2021 on the black carpet at ASOS Beauty Awards, they were adorably sweet with each other - but we were keen to find out how living together as a new couple is really going.

There have been some brilliant hacks born and raised in TikTok, then there are some that, quite frankly, need to be chucked into the virtual bin. A new trend, mostly coming from US-based users, is a “sunless skin tanning” method that sees tan lovers using a nasal spray to get a full-body glow. As you might imagine, experts aren’t thrilled at this particular trend taking off.

Many of us assume that Love Island stars face a certain degree of pressure to look “perfect” before entering the villa, but 2021 contestant AJ Bunker has outlined the true extent of that pressure – and what stars will resort to in a bid to feel and look more camera ready. In a series of new Instagram stories, the 29 year old opens up on how damaging she found the four-week run-up to appearing on the hit show. With roughly 4.2 million people watching each episode, it’s no wonder contestants frequently turn to cosmetic procedures in an attempt to bolster confidence.

There are some celebrities for whom blonde hair is truly their signature and our cores would be shaken if ever they changed that. Holly Willoughby, Mollie King, Gemma Collins et all would all shock the nation if ever they went to the dark side and became brunette.

I’ve always had dark under-eye circles.They don’t particularly bother me, but because of my pale skin the purple-blue shadows do stand out against my complexion – even more so if I’ve had a rubbish night’s sleep or when I’m hungover. I’m used to receiving “are you OK? You look a bit tired” comments even when I *have* slept well.

It’s the age old question: how often should I be washing my hair? We’re never quite sure of the answer, and different experts will offer varying advice. Most do agree on one thing though: you should be looking at your hair type to figure out how often your lengths and scalp need to be cleaned. Different hair types will also benefit from using different types of shampoo, to make sure strands don’t dry out or scalps don’t get laden with product residue.
