Here’s a closer look inside the Rays of Beauty Edit…
Canopy Vegetation Glycolic Super-Food Facial
30ml full size, RRP £58
This overnight treatment is like giving your skin a health kick while you sleep; the lightweight gel contains AHAs to gently exfoliate and brighten, plus vitamin-rich superfoods like broccoli and spinach to perk your complexion up. Expect smoother, more radiant-looking skin in the morning.
How to use:
Apply up to twice a week to cleansed skin, covering the face with an even layer of the product avoiding the delicate eye area. Leave on overnight and rinse off in the morning as part of your am skincare routine.
The benefits:
- AHA glycolics work to slough away dead skin cells and refine pores
- Infused with nutrient-dense leafy greens for an antioxidant-rich overnight treatment
- Intensely hydrates the skin and works to smooth and even the skin’s surface
ESPA Bergamot and Jasmine Body Lotion
75ml travel size, RRP £6.30
I’ve had some incredible treatments at ESPA spas in the past, and this reminds me exactly of them – the scent of bergamot and jasmine essential oils is gorgeous, and really uplifting. This texture of this body lotion is perfect, too – it’s nourishing enough to target dry skin but doesn’t leave limbs feeling greasy or sticky.
How to use:
Use morning and evening after your bath or shower. Massage into skin in firm, upward, circular movements until fully absorbed.
The benefits:
- Light daily body lotion sinks into the skin without feeling greasy, heavy, or lingering on the skin's surface
- Enriched with shea butter and almond oil to moisturise, nourish, and soften skin
- A blend of essential oils leaves skin delicately fragranced with a spa-like scent and beautifully soft
Grace & Stella Rescue My Hair Mask
30ml travel size, RRP £6
Your hair goes through a lot in summer; sun exposure, chlorine, high humidity levels and salty seawater can all leave it feeling more frazzled than fabulous. This hydrating hair mask helps to get it back to its swishy best in just five minutes – it smells amazing, too.
How to use:
After shampooing, apply a dollop of the mask to wet hair, starting with the ends and working your way up to the roots. Clip hair up and leave to soak in for five minutes. Once time is up, rinse thoroughly and style hair as normal.
The benefits:
- Improves the scalp’s blood circulation for the growth of healthier hair
- Boosts collagen activity and nourishes hair follicles, leaving the hair healthier and revitalised
- Enhances hair’s elasticity, restores shine and minimises frizz
Avant Hydra-Bright Collagen Eye Restoring Pads
Single pair, RRP £12
Eye masks are a must-have in my bathroom cabinet as they’re great for refreshing puffy, tired eyes caused by a number of summer-related woes, from hayfever to jetlag. These are especially good ones as they don’t slide down your face. Keep them in the fridge for extra depuffing powers.
How to use:
Apply to the underside of each eye - with the thicker end placed near the bridge of your nose and working outwards to your temple. Leave on for 10-15 minutes. Peel off and gently massage in any leftover residue.
The benefits:
- Tightens pores and helps reduce the appearance of oily skin for a mattified result
- Aims to deeply hydrate the under eyes to minimise puffiness and dark circles
- Encourages skin elasticity to smooth fine lines and wrinkles
Nail Kind Natural Vegan Nail Polish in shade Sugar Plum
8ml full size, RRP £8.95
Lilac is having a real moment in the beauty world, and this nail polish is the perfect way to wear the trend; it’s a grown up, muted shade of mauve that looks fresh yet chic. If you like your beauty products to be as natural as possible then this is a great choice, as it’s made from up to 85% bio-sourced ingredients.
How to use:
For best results, apply a base coat first, then follow with two thin layers of this Nail Kind polish. Finish with a top coat to lock in the colour, add extra shine, and keep your colour chip-free for longer.
The benefits:
- Quick drying polish that is easy to apply and gentle on your nails
- Fabulous high-shine finish in a flattering lilac hue that is long-lasting
- Vegan and cruelty-free formula with up to 85% bio-sourced ingredients
Commodity Fragrances Velvet Expressive
2ml sample size, RRP £5
I absolutely adore Commodity Fragrances – the scents are unique, comforting and completely addictive – and I know you’re going to love this one too. Inspired by the softness of rich velvet against the skin, it’s warm, smokey and slightly sweet. Divine!
How to use:
Spritz onto your wrists, inner elbows, behind your ears, and any pulse points for a longer-lasting scent to be enjoyed all day.
The benefits:
- Powerful notes of roasted almond, rose petals and black amber
- Fragrance notes evolve throughout your wear
- Light, refreshing and slightly nutty
Inside the box, you’ll also receive a voucher for two copies of OK! Magazine, bringing you all the latest beauty, fashion, and lifestyle trends each week.
We hope you enjoy this edit as much as we enjoyed trying, testing, and curating it!
