Following Drowsy’s appearance on This Morning, the brand was also mentioned on ITV Online, as one of the best brands you’ve never heard about… But definitely should try out immediately! A fantastic week for Drowsy, which saw a dramatic increase in sales following the mention!

“What I love about these newer brands is they’re thinking more carefully and they’re just being more thoughtful. £1 per purchase goes to Mind charity because they feel mental health is really important when you’re lacking sleep.”

The best beauty brands you’ve never heard of

Crave Magazine mentioned ProLon this week, as being the “ground-breaking five-day plant-based meal programme that nourishes the body while keeping it in fasting mode”. So, if want a little end of summer detox, ProLon is a fantastic way to reset and create healthy habits!

And finally, a few make-up mentions! First up, the Catrice Camouflage Cream Concealer received all the praises from Yahoo Style shopping writer Maisie Bovingdon, as her “lockdown saviour for disguising spots and dark eye bags”. The piece was also featured on Yahoo Sports and MSN UK!

“But there is one concealer that has changed the beauty game in my opinion – Catrice Cosmetics Camouflage Cream Concealer. Why we rate it? It is lightweight and pigmented enough to provide coverage all day long. While the pot may look small, a tiny dab on the finger can go a long way, as other customers have also noted. Plus, its size means it is compact enough to carry with you when on the go.”

Plus, The Sunclusive range from Catrice was mentioned in Warpaint today, with the SPF Tinted Moisturiser which offers sun protection and a radiant glow!

Warpaint also featured the brand new Brow Doctor Eyebrow Mask from The London Brow Company, as a deeply nourishing brow treatment designed to either deep condition the hairs, leaving you with glossy and defined brows!

Meanwhile, essence cosmetics also made an appearance on Yahoo Style this week, as one of the essentials to pack on your staycation! Can you guess the product? Of course, it’s the cult-favourite Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara Waterproof! The perfect option for fluttering lashes that last!

Plus, OK! Magazine mentioned the amazing essence Blush Lighters, in an article all about how to recreate your favourite celeb’s glowy makeup. This time, on a budget!
