Here’s to a beautiful summer

From new haircare heroes to the next-gen serums with added vitamin C, here's what you should be using this summer.
HAIR HEROES

HAIR HEROES

1. Cult brand The Ordinary has launched a haircare range which includes the 2% Conditioner, £6.80. At the same accessible price point and with a minimalistic-yet-effective formula, the conditioner will help soften and detangle hair without unnecessary, filler ingredients.

2. The perfect antidote to an itchy, dry and flaky scalp, this honeyinfused leave-in serum helps balance and soothe skin and scalp instantly. Vitamin-rich Mirsalehi honey helps to nourish, organic rice protein reduces irritation and flaking while celery seed extract eases overall discomfort. Honey Infused Scalp Treatment, £37 Gisou

3. New from haircare guru Christophe Robin is this silky conditioning mask with an ultralight texture to enhance shine, reduce frizz and leave hair super soft and manageable. Hydrating Melting Mask, £14 Christophe Robin

4. When time is short, you can get that ‘just washed’ look with this clever new dry shampoo with ultra-fine powder to absorb oil and odours but so fine it leaves no trace. Spray away at roots and hair will be left feeling squeaky clean and full of volume. Volumising Dry Shampoo, £15 Percy & Reed
