Why we’re buying it: A fuller hairline.
Harry’s Body Wash
While many brands are quietly trimming volumes, Harry’s has gone the other way. With a refreshed look and updated logo, its body wash now comes in a more generous format, giving you more product without compromising on quality.
The skin-loving, sulphate- and paraben-free formula is available in four popular scents – Fig, Stone, Wildlands and Spring – all designed to cleanse effectively without drying the skin.

Put on our radar by hairstylist Tim Pateman of The Lion & The Fox, Glowwa capsules support hair growth and overall well-being.
With natural DHT blockers including saw palmetto and pumpkin seed, plus L-lysine and B vitamins, the formula encourages stronger, thicker hair with reduced shedding.
Alongside hair health, Glowwa also supports digestion, prostate health, energy levels, mood and cognitive function. For best results, it’s recommended as a three-month course.
Why we’re buying it: After three months, we noticed more hair at our temples and smoother, stronger nails.
Horace Gentle Scalp Exfoliator
You don’t have to have a scalp condition to benefit from the Horace Gentle Scalp Exfoliator, but it can certainly help prevent one from developing.
Formulated with peppermint, jojoba beads and PHA, it removes dead skin cells and build-up to reduce dandruff, dryness and irritation.
It’s simple to use, too: apply to damp hair, massage into the scalp, leave for 3 minutes, then rinse and shampoo as normal.
We found that a clearer scalp also helped add noticeable volume at the roots.
Why we’re buying it: No grit gets left behind – everything dissolves.
Horace Prebiotic + Allantoin Serum
An unhappy scalp is usually out of balance, and winter weather can make things worse.

With winter underway, the Extra Rich Omega Serum Drops help protect the skin barrier from drying out.

Why we’re buying it: The packaging is super light and travel-friendly.
Acqua di Parma Gelsomino A Freddo
A fragrance to beat the winter blues, Gelsomino A Freddo takes its name from the cold enfleurage process.
This meticulous technique sees jasmine flowers placed by hand onto purified shea butter until fully infused with essential oil, capturing the flower at its most luminous.
The first spray is like opening the balcony doors of a sun-soaked villa, with bright Italian lemon, pink pepper and artemisia layered over jasmine enfleurage, orris extract and black tea, before settling into smoky undertones of cypriol, guaiac wood and patchouli.
Why we’re buying it: A radiant, long-lasting floral.
Bentley Become Zenith
The first flanker for Become, Zenith builds on the original with a richer, more warming profile.
It opens with violet leaf, cardamom and cocoa, before moving into a heart of leather, papyrus and patchouli gayo. The base brings vanilla, sublimolide musk and ambergris, giving the scent a smooth, lingering depth.
Softly spiced and enveloping, it lands squarely in the current sweet spot for leathery, amber-musk fragrances.
Why we’re buying it: A high-quality scent that punches well above its weight.
Dyson Omega Leave-In Conditioning Spray
Dyson may have reinvented the hair dryer, but it’s now turning its attention to hair care.
The Omega Leave-In Conditioner adds control and definition to naturally curly hair using Oli7, an in-house blend of seven omega-rich oils, including sunflower, macadamia, Abyssinian, avocado, olive, corn, and sesame.
Applied to damp hair, it delivers weightless smoothing and conditioning while reducing frizz and flyaways.

Patricks BB1 Bathroom Bag

Rollr
Rollr turns an everyday essential into something genuinely desirable, pairing thoughtful design with a more sustainable approach to deodorant.
