Beauty

Shampoo that actually strengthens your hair? Face cream without unnecessary additives? We have tested 112 beauty products for skin, make-up, hair and body.

216 reviews

Beauty is the most ingredient-sensitive category we cover, so we prioritise products with full INCI transparency and dermatologist review. Our beauty category includes skincare, make-up, haircare, shaving and hair-removal devices, natural oils, and heat-styling tools. We rate skincare on ingredient efficacy (retinol percentages, niacinamide concentrations, SPF active verification), make-up on wear-time and pigment intensity, and haircare on scalp and hair-type suitability. For devices we test run-time, heat consistency, and safety cut-outs. Every recommendation is cross-checked against the British Association of Dermatologists guidance and the EU/UK Cosmetic Regulation banned-substance list.

Frequently asked questions about beauty

What percentage of retinol is effective but safe?+
For beginners, 0.025–0.05% applied 2–3 times a week lets the skin build tolerance with minimal irritation. Experienced users can go up to 0.5–1%. Always pair with SPF 30+ and introduce gradually.
Is expensive shampoo worth it?+
The active cleansing agents cost roughly the same across price points. What you pay extra for is better fragrance, nicer packaging, and sometimes scalp-soothing extras like ceramides or panthenol. A £7 drugstore shampoo with the right surfactant for your hair type beats a £35 one with the wrong one.
How do I choose the right foundation shade online?+
Match your jawline, not your cheek or hand — they oxidise and differ from face tone. If in doubt, pick slightly warmer rather than cooler; cool mismatches look ashy. Most UK retailers offer free shade exchanges, which we flag in every foundation review.
Are IPL devices as effective as salon laser?+
Home IPL reduces hair visibly over 12 weeks for most light-to-medium skin tones and dark hair. Salon laser is faster and works on a wider range of skin tones, but costs 10–20x more. For most users, home IPL is the better value.
