Our beauty editor’s favourite products on Amazon – and why they’re worth adding to your cart

The skin on our neck is thinner than the skin on our face, making it one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. Combine that with the “tech neck” effect from constantly looking down at phones and screens, and it’s clear this area deserves some extra care.

Common concerns as we age include crepey skin and sagging. This neck cream is formulated with peptides and hyaluronic acid to help draw in and retain moisture, improving the overall condition of your skin.

For best results, apply a small amount morning and night over the jawline, neck, and decolletage.

While I sometimes invest in body products with more active ingredients when my skin needs an extra boost, this moisturiser has become a staple in my beauty cupboard and a daily favourite.

The reason? It ticks both the price and performance boxes perfectly for regular use.

Sunscreen is a key part of my daily skincare ritual, and I wear it year-round. On top of that, I have quite sensitive skin. I find this one works well with my complexion because it contains skin-softening ingredients that hydrate and leave the skin looking beautifully dewy.

It’s also a lovely lightweight formulation that layers perfectly under makeup.

Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Sunscreens are only one component of sun protection. Avoid high-risk sun exposure. Re-apply as per directions.

Over the years, I’ve invested in several laser treatments to improve my skin’s quality and texture. Recently, a facialist recommended trying at-home red light therapy as a regular skin booster to even out my skin tone and keep my glow between treatments.

Now, I use red light therapy at least three times a week as part of my beauty routine, and I’ve noticed a clear difference in my complexion.

While red light therapy masks are popular for their convenience, I chose a handheld device so I can also use it on other areas of my body.

My very fine hair really cops a beating. Added to the fact that it’s heavily highlighted, I also have an active, outdoorsy lifestyle, so it’s out in the elements (both sun and salt water) constantly. Then I need to look decent for work, so it also requires frequent washing.

This molecular repair hair mask is perfect for combing through the lengths to smooth and soften my locks.

After complaining to a fellow beauty editor friend about my skin feeling really dry, she recommended this product. I’ve never looked back, and my skin’s been better for it. Now after cleansing, this serum is the next product to hit my complexion before my other moisturisers.

Again, it contains hyaluronic acid (which I’m realising I use a lot of), but as they are powerful humectants that help retain moisture in the skin, it just seems to help my other moisturisers do their job. Plus, it feels super silky on the skin.

As far as at-home teeth whitening kits go, this one gets my vote for price, results and convenience.

Even after my first use, I saw an improvement in the colour of my teeth. Plus, it’s really easy to use.

Another foe to my fine, coloured hair is heat styling, so I gave this bounce brush a go and now use it several times a week. It uses infrared technology to gently heat and style the hair, as well as aloe infused bristles to soften the stands.

For best results I leave my hair to mostly air dry (if I have time), then lightly dry off with a blow dryer, then smooth through to achieve a bit of body and bounce with the thermal brush. It’s been a game-changer for my hair, but I can confirm it also works well on thick hair.

A lightweight moisture hit for your skin, this Neutrogena moisturiser recently came across my desk and was instantly added to my list of favourites because it really got my skin glowing.

It contains hyaluronic acid, amino acids and electrolytes to plump and moisturise the skin.
