The beauty of mini beauty products on holiday is that you can pretend you’re in a lovely posh hotel enjoying the daily replenishments of fancy shower gel rather than on your cousin’s houseboat sweltering somewhere just beyond Essex. The offerings get better and more innovative every year, from a travel-sized hair-repair kit by Moroccan Oil to Origins’ brightening eye cream with ginseng.

Heavenly scents
H&M is launching a new fragrance collection of, wait for it, 25 different
scents. And they’ll be nice, too – they have been created with Givaudan,
one of the world’s leading perfume houses. Available from 16 August.
Cheers to that
Bleach, the people behind wild and wonderful hair colours, have launched a line of beer-based haircare products. Their shampoo, conditioner and treatment mask all contain protective B vitamins. From £7, bleachlondon.co.uk
Let it shine
K-Beauty? So last season. Kylie Jenner’s fluorescent pink ‘jelly nails’ have sparked a rush for super-shiny glass-like nails. They kill on Instagram. The most glam ones need a professional hand, but a glassy look can be achieved by mixing a clear varnish with your favourite shade.
