    Finding a good pair of sandals is a lot more complicated than it seems. I know first-hand how tricky it can be – I've spent too much money on styles that have ripped my ankles to shreds with painful blisters, unsupportive flat soles that left my arches aching and cheap materials that do not allow any breathing room when it's hot and sweaty. That was until recently, when I discovered the Havaianas Una Acai Sandals.

    As a beauty journalist, I've tested tens, if not hundreds, of SPF products. From gels and creams to sprays and roll-on sticks, I've put plenty through their paces, but very few have impressed me like Korean sunscreens.

    As a beauty journalist, it's my job to test products and filter through the hundreds of new launches every year to find out what's worth a spot in your routine. Lip balms are one of my favourite types of products to try, as you can form an opinion on them almost immediately, and I knew as soon as I applied Boots Glossy Lip Balms last year, that I was hooked. I like to think of myself as a lip balm aficionado.

    In recent years, activewear brands have really improved their stylish, functional and flattering designs for women. From TALA to Gymshark and Lululemon (one of my personal favourites), there is no shortage of coveted brands. However, one of the most talked-about in 2025 - and the one I really wanted to try - is Oner Active, which was founded in 2020 by fitness influencer Krissy Cela.
