New brands at M&S beauty for 2016

Marks & Spencer Beauty has been a big hit, and this year seems more brands launch into M&S beauty halls across the country, and even more online.

Josh Wood, Coriolis, Pulsaderm, Micro Pedi/Nail, Amerliorate, Magnitone, Eyeko, LGFB Make up brushes, Fillerina, and Alpha H are all new to M&S.

So, who are these brands – let’s find out.
AMELIORATE – available in store and online now,  with prices from £12.50, this brand was formulated to target the visible signs of Keratosis Pilaris – that’s when you get the appearance of goosebump-like bumps on your skin.

It’s a range of bodycare products, using high quality moisturising ingredients, along with natural Lactic Acid to turn that dry, rough, bumpy skin into smooth, hydrated skin.
FILLERINA – launching exclusively online, January 2016, this is a revolutionary, no-needle dermo-cosmetic filler for at-home use. It contains the first ever blend of six hyaluronic acids with different weights and structures to facilitate the plumping of tissues without puncturing the skin.

Featuring a patent for the precision applicator and formula containing six different molecular structures of varying weights and size of hyaluronic acid, Fillerina is the only cosmetic product that allows large quantities of hyaluronic acid to penetrate deep into the cutaneous tissues, without injections. The 14-day intensive treatment and everyday maintenance products are available in three different graded strengths.

MICRO NAIL & MICRO PEDI – available online and in stores, £40 & £30 – the former is a battery powdered nail buffer. Nail tools used to be something we were warned off, but this amazing thing has rollers that rotate 360 degrees, 18000 times per minute, smoothing, polishing and shining natural nails in a flash!The Micro Pedi buffs away dry, hard and rough skin from your feet. I’m not so sure these gadgets will replace the salon trips, but perhaps in between visits they’ll work as a boost.

EYEKO  – launching both online and in store, from January 2016, prices from £12, this brilliant brand has been around since 1999 and was one of the first brands I remember covering as a beauty writer.

Devised by makeup veterans and partners, Max and Nina Leykind, Eyeko re-invented mascara with its iconic zero-waste squeeze tubes. They have created an eye wardrobe of formulas and brushes for instant results, easy application and long term lash care.

Favoured by celebrities and acclaimed make-up artists alike Eyeko believes in a tight edit of multi-tasking products that deliver what they promise for your eyes only. Style icon Alexa Chung joined Eyeko as Creative Consultant in 2013 bringing a wealth of knowledge to the brand. Or her name, at least…!

JOSH WOOD COLOURLOC TREATMENT IRONS – available in store and online, £120. These landed in stores in November last year, colour-protecting electrical tools from globally-acclaimed ‘Guardian of Colour’, Josh Wood.
The new ‘Colourloc’ Treatment Iron is a revolution in haircare that allows you to care for your coloured hair whilst you style. Unique patented capsules help to effortlessly care for coloured hair instantly leaving it looking and feeling refreshed, revived and radiant. Simply insert your chosen treatment capsule into the ‘ColourLoc’ chamber. The iron heats the treatment, turning it into a conditioning vapour that is evenly ‘steamed’ through to the tips of your hair via unique vented ceramic plates. Each set includes 12 colour-care capsules.

Now, the brand has a global following and is used the world over to banish blemishes, unify uneven skin-tones and restore a radiant, youthful glow. Their hero product is Liquid Gold, an amazing skin treatment. Apply it on alternate evenings, and trust me, you will notice the difference.

Look Good Feel Better is the cancer support charity that helps women and teenagers combat the visible side effects of their treatment. Created through the expertise of brush specialists, Bespoke Europe, LGFB has designed a range of professional-quality makeup brushes from which a donation of the sale of each brush/set goes towards the charities confidence-boosting workshops.
