This is not just a post for product junkies.

Because even those with minimal beauty routines have essential products they can’t live without…

And after years of living here, you’ll find some products in your make-up bags are just that: essential. So after a whip around the Lovin office, here are some products we can’t live without.

Have any to add? Let us know in the comments…

1. For the body – Bio Oil

Moisturiser is sometimes sticky so Bio Oil is a revelation. It’s multi-use so use this to hydrate, combat stretch marks, uneven skin town, aging and it’s brilliant for dehydrated skin.

Where? Well-stocked pharmacies

2. For the brows – Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Gel

There are some (lots of) days when it’s just two flippin’ hot to wear make-up. And while #makeupfree is the goal, your brow game still needs to be on point. This gel will last forever. Head to the best make-up store in your city to pick up the best shade for your skin-tone.

3. For dry hair – Argan Oil

If you suffer from dry hair, (blame the water) Argan Oil is LIFE. The oil comes from kernels from the Argan tree, usually found in Morocco. Our only tip is this: so many products mention Argan oil now, but check ingredients; the higher the percentage of oil the better.

Where? Well-stocked pharmacies

4. For keeping the mane tame – label.m with Mary Katrantzou

For smooth and silky hair goals, the deep cleanse shampoo and conditioner from label.m are the shower buddies you can’t live without. The best bit? Right now if you purchase three products you’ll receive a specially designed Mary Katrantzou silk scarf.

Where? Toni & Guy salons

5. For keeping tan – St. Tropez tinted moisturiser

If you’re pasty AF and no amount of hours spent under the sun will get you golden, this tinted moisturiser is perfect to give you a healthy glow. Pop it on before bed; it’s non-streaky and doesn’t stain sheets – the dream.

Where? Boots

6. For keeping the fine lines at bay (without the help of a professional) – Gold Collagen

Available at most pharmacies, this is a liquid supplement to fight the signs of aging. It’s a thirty days vitamin-heavy course where you drink a small bottle every morning.

7. To keep everything in place – Benefit Pore fit

This oil-free translucent gel keeps your make-up in place, while reducing fine lines and it works for all skin tones. Use it on top of your daily moisturizer and underneath your foundation.
