Amazon might not be the first place you think of when shopping for new beauty products but thanks to Prime Day, there are some real bargains to be found.
There are some seriously good brands on offer too including ColorWow, Real Techniques and Elemis.
As a proud beauty addict, I’m constantly trying the latest launches and topping up on tried and tested favourites. Which is precisely what we’re doing here.
I have tested everyone of the products below to bring you only the very best that beauty has to offer. Never tried a few of these? Trust me, they’ll take up permanent space in your beauty stash as soon as you do.
Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3
If you’re yet to try the Medik8 range, you’re in for a treat, particularly with its Crystal Retinal 3. Formulated with vitamin A, expect to see an improvement to your skin’s texture, tone and glow. It also contains plenty of hyaluronic acid and glycerin to keep skin moisturised and comforted. I recommend gradually building up to nightly use though as some can experience irritation if used too often.
SHOP £39.20 (SAVE £9.80)
Kérastase Elixir Ultime Hair Oil Refillable
Dry hair? Then make a beeline for this hair oil. It has an incredible texture that softens and hydrates strands, never leaving your hair greasy or weighed down. It’s one of my holy grail products that has stood the test of time since its original launch in 2010 and it’s since been repackaged to look even more chic on your dressing table – what’s not to love?

St. Tropez Self Tan Express Mousse

Apply all over then leave on from 1-3 hours depending on how deep you like your tan to be, then wash off. Voila! A gorgeous faux glow that isn’t streaky or orange. Plus, it’s currently 63% off.
