How we test beauty at GLAMOUR:
Our editors – and a team of carefully -selected specialist freelance journalists – test all of the products we feature in real-life settings – rather than in a studio, on set or in a lab. We take beauty products home, test them as part of our everyday lives, and aim to give our readers honest and realistic reviews of them as a result.
When GLAMOUR tests a new beauty product, our editors look at it from every angle in an effort to best serve you. We review ingredients and scrutinise brand claims. You can find out more about how we test makeup, haircare, tools, perfume, skincare and devices over on our dedicated. About Us page.

This page was last updated on Wednesday 8th October at 18:35.
1. Best LED Face Mask Deal
Why we love it: The CurrentBody LED Face Mask Series 2 is a luxe upgrade on the cult favourite that put at-home light therapy on the map. With 236 LEDs and three wavelengths – red, near-infrared and deep near-infrared – it helps boost collagen, smooth fine lines and restore radiance in just ten minutes a day. The new design is softer, fits comfortably, and offers fuller coverage around the eyes, lips and chin, complete with a smart Veritace® system to ensure every mask delivers professional-level results.
2. Best Retinol Deal
Why we love it: This next-gen vitamin A serum is a skincare staple for smoother, brighter, more even skin. Powered by retinaldehyde – a stronger, faster-acting form of retinol – it works to soften fine lines, boost radiance and improve texture overnight. It’s a firm favourite of Glamour’s Beauty Commerce Writer, Shani Cohen, who’s shared exactly why she loves it in her full review.
3. Best Moisturiser Deal
Why we love it: Elemis took its cult-favourite moisturiser and made it even better with built-in SPF 30. The lightweight gel-cream texture sinks in quickly, sits beautifully under makeup, and is packed with marine and plant actives to boost firmness and hydration. Plus, the soft rose and mimosa scent makes it feel like a mini spa moment every morning.
4. Best K-Beauty Deal

Why we love it: A cult K-beauty favourite for a reason, this essence is powered by 96% snail mucin – the glow-giving ingredient that leaves skin plump, hydrated and ridiculously smooth. It’s lightweight, silky and instantly refreshing, giving your complexion that dewy, post-facial bounce we’re all chasing.
5. Best Hair Mask Deal
Why we love it: Created with Chris Appleton, the Color Wow Money Masque is my go-to when my hair needs a reset. It’s enriched with Procapil Complex to help prevent breakage, sea kelp for an antioxidant boost, and algae to keep strands hydrated. I leave it on for five minutes in the shower and it leaves my hair soft, smooth and super glossy – like a mini salon treatment at home – Shani Cohen, Glamour’s Beauty Commerce Writer.
6. Best Mascara Deal
Why we love it: Maybelline’s Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara has earned its cult status for good reason. The lightweight, bamboo-infused formula gives lashes impressive lift and length without feeling heavy, while the flexible wand makes it easy to reach even the tiniest lashes. It’s a Glamour office favourite – read our full review here.
7. Best K-Beauty Tool Deal

Why we love it: A favourite of Hailey Bieber and Kylie Jenner, the Medicube Age-R Booster Pro is one of the most talked-about K-beauty gadgets right now. It uses six clever technologies – including microcurrent, LED light therapy and EMS – to lift, tone and brighten, leaving skin looking smoother and more refreshed. Glamour’s Beauty Contributor Denise Pimbet gave it a full road test in her full review here.
8. Best Eyelash Growth Serum Deal
Why we love it: This cult-favourite lash serum blends strengthening peptides with hydrating hyaluronic acid and conditioning vitamin B5 to support healthy lash growth from root to tip. The lightweight formula coats each lash evenly, helping to prevent breakage and brittleness while creating the ideal environment for thicker, denser lashes. It’s also prostaglandin-free (the ingredient that can sometimes irritate eyes), making it a gentle yet effective choice for everyday use.
9. Best Hair Tool Deal
Why we love it: The Dyson Airstrait™ is the kind of styling tool that makes you wonder how you ever coped without it. It dries and straightens at the same time, cutting styling time in half and leaving hair smooth and glossy – minus the heat damage. It’s not one for creating waves or curls, but if you love that silky straight look, this will be your new obsession. Plus, it has £165 off – so it’s the perfect time to grab it for less.
10. Best LED Hair Device Deal
The Currentbody Hair Growth Helmet is as extra as it looks – and we mean that in the best way. Using red light therapy to stimulate the scalp, it helps hair grow thicker, stronger and healthier with just 10 minutes use a day. It’s FDA-cleared, dermatologist-approved and hands-free, so you can tick off your to-do list whilst wearing it (you just may get some funny looks on your Zoom call).
11. Best Exfoliant Deal
You don’t need to be a skincare pro to know Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant is iconic. The salicylic acid formula clears pores, smooths texture and helps calm redness and breakouts – leaving skin clearer, brighter and more even with every use.
