"I needed a new handbag fragrance and this one is cherry scented, so it's a must! I have a few of this brand's other perfumes in my collection, so I know this scent will last just as well (10ml is perfect for a travel size)." - Isabella Ross, Senior News Writer.

"I'm not a fan of the laminated brow look, but I love to have my brows neat and 'in place'. This newbie from NYX (you can grab it at Chemist Warehouse) is quick, easy and makes your brows stay put all day. I love how it dries down non-sticky with no flakiness. Also, very teeny and cute." - Erin Docherty, Beauty & Lifestyle Editor.

"It's not an exaggeration to say I am *obsessed* with ghd's new blowdry brush. I am famously… not great at styling my hair, but this heat tool is a dream — it’s easy to use and it gives good hair, and those are two of my favourite things. It's also designed with some fancy tech to prevent heat damage and reduce frizz, and I'm no hair scientist but I can tell you it works." - Alix Nicholson, Senior Weekend Editor.

MCoBeauty Glow Vitamin C Rich Cleansing Butter, $35.

"This new product from MCoBeauty is great — it's super nourishing on the skin. A good price too." - Isabella Ross, Senior News Writer.

"Girl. Glossier You has truly changed my life. As a migraine girly, I can’t do very harsh scents. This smells so fresh, clean and subtle. It smells a bit different on everyone which I love. I spray it every day and every night." - Emily Vernem, Host of The Spill and Lifestyle Writer.

"In case you've been snoozin', hair is having a serious moment — and my heat damaged mop can't get enough of this guys from Joico. It's a seven-second bond-builder (SO QUICK) that helps rebuild the bonds of your hair, reviving from the inside out for stronger, healthier-looking hair. As a lazy gewl who can't be bothered with hair treatments that involve too much time or effort, this is right up my alley." - Erin Docherty, Beauty & Lifestyle Editor.

Ikkari Overnight Renewal Cream, $79.

"I'm a big fan of overnight moisturisers and masks, and Ikkari's overnight cream has quickly become one of my favourites. The scent sets it apart — its botanical and unisex, my husband enjoys using it. It could also make a thoughtful Father's Day gift. It has a deeply relaxing spa-like quality." - Yvette Bay, People & Culture Manager.

Laneige Water Sleeping Mask, $48.

"It's been a big hair month for me! After heat styling my hair more often than usual, I wanted to get me a l'il somethin' to hydrate the ends and keep her looking healthy and shiny and happy. Moroccanoil’s new Purple Original Oil Treatment is their OG (much-loved) Treatment Oil formula, with a twist for blonde or grey hair. Your frazzled ends get a shot of argan oil to keep hair nourished and happy, plus the violet hue does its bit to mix brassiness. Clever." - Alix Nicholson, Senior Weekend Editor.
