New Time-saving Beauty Products for 2018

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Newcastle chapter.

1. Make-up remover wipes – Neutrogena Hydro Boost Cleansing Facial wipes

It’s an everyday struggle for most of the girls: removing makeup. Sometimes we are just too lazy to do it. But it is so important to remove our makeup before we fall asleep after a long day as it also removes all the dirt we have accumulated during the day. The fastest way is certainly facial wipes, as sometimes even one will do the trick! The new formula from Neutrogena not only easily removes waterproof makeup but also hydrates the skin. The most vexing element of makeup and its removal is that it leaves the skin dried out and prone to new imperfections. These new cleansing wipes from Neutrogena seem like the perfect solution to that problem as they leave your skin perfectly hydrated.

Get them at Boots for £4.99

2. Face scrub – Clinique Blackhead Solutions 7 Day Deep Pore Cleanse and Scrub

I think the most annoying type of imperfection one can get are blackheads. They are so resistant to a regular everyday skincare routine and very annoying to get rid of. On the internet, we can find crazy solutions, like egg white and tissue masks, which literary rip off those blackheads from your skin and this way- clear up the pores. Seems like a pretty advanced and time-consuming technique. This formula from Clinique proposes a much easier alternative. Just by switching up a usual face scrub for a week, you can get rid of those pesky blackheads. Seems pretty easy and hassle-free, right?

3. Face mask – The Body Shop Tea Tree Anti-Imperfection Night Mask

It’s always very nice and relaxing to put on face masks and revitalize the skin. I am sure everyone can find time once a week we can find the time to put on the mask, wait for 20 minutes and rinse it off. Some of us who suffer from acne may need to repeat this routine more frequently. The Body Shop not only has a brilliant cosmetic line for sensitive skin prone to acne but this year there is a new addition to the series, in a form of a night mask. I think it’s a brilliant idea for busy students to use on an everyday basis and not too expensive, which is so important to students on a budget.

Get it at The Body Shop for £12.00

4. Whitening toothpaste – Ecodent Extra Black Whitening Toothpaste with Black Charcoal & Teavigo

A popular trend last year was new teeth whitening techniques. On Instagram, many influencers were advertising whitening strips and special laser devices you need to use every day in order to achieve the desired look. With this toothpaste from Ecodenta, you can whiten your teeth just by brushing them as usual, saving you time each morning. Additionally, it uses natural ingredients like charcoal, which is preferable if you have sensitive or damaged teeth. If you are also a fan of eco and organically produced cosmetics, this is a product for you!

5. Stick foundation – L’Oreal Paris Infallible Shaping Stick Foundation

Last year’s L’Oreal’s hit product was the Infallible foundation. It was everywhere, to the point that it seemed like almost every major YouTube beauty guru not only mentioned it mentioned but also praised it endlessly. Its new incarnation is a stick foundation and it is perfect if you want to speed up your makeup routine and shave off extra minutes. Certainly, this easier form of application will make everyday contouring more convenient and quicker to blend.

6. Body wash – LUSH Naked shower cream “Tender Is The Night”

If you are a fan of LUSH and their formula of organic, handmade and plastic free cosmetics, you need to check out the new line they have come out with made for Valentine’s Day. It features one particularly interesting product, a shower cream. This is a new version of LUSH’s solid body washes, which allows you to wash and moisturize your skin at the same time. Moisturizing is a crucial part of a routine, but also quite time-consuming. LUSH offers very useful and fragrant way to cut this time in half by putting both products in one.
