Eylure have just launched their much-awaited Girls Aloud false eyelashes with a pair for each of the five band members. Go dark and glossy with Cheryl’s; fun and flirty with Nadine’s; or perhaps spiky and full with Sarah’s. £5, available at Superdrug.
Here’s what the girl’s say about them:
Cheryl Cole: “I love the dark glossy look of my lashes. They are a must for a night out, cool and ultra glamorous.”
Kimberly Walsh: “My lashes give great length and texture. I love the boost they give to my eyes.”
Nadine Coyle: “My lashes are full and layered with a really natural feel. I could wear this fun, flirty style every day.”
Nicola Roberts: “I designed my lashes to be really full but still demure. I wanted a natural beauty effect with the length and thickness we need.”
Sarah Harding: “I love my lashes and wear them all the time. I chose a full, spiky style that elongates my eyes.”

The latest must-have haircut is the ‘lob’, as modelled here on Jessica Alba. It’s basically a longer version of the bob with or without the fringe and with lots of volume rather than being dead straight. When you’ve had the cut, create volume by using big rollers while drying. Try Superdrug’s Tresemme Roller Set, £8.80, for unstructured, long-lasting waves.

According to a new survey, the credit crunch is making us reach for the bottle - the hair dye bottle, that is. The trend stems from women needing to cheer themselves up through the doom and gloom of the recession… and we all know blondes are supposed to have more fun… We love John Frieda’s easy-to-use Sheer Blonde Colour Glaze range, from £5.49 at Superdrug.

I’m all for a spot of shimmer and shine especially when it comes to make-up. As long as you don’t take it to extremes and end up looking like a member of Abba, subtly applied sparkly make-up can add instant glamour and drama. Bourjois’s latest offering on the glitz and shimmer front is appealing and I’m already plotting its first outing (bit sad I know!). The brand’s new (about to hit stores any day now) Shimmering Shine liquid eyeshadows rather cleverly contain 55% water to help it glide smoothly across the skin and its pearlised pigments create the all-important shimmer. There are no fewer than eight groovy shades from gold and brown to blue and rose. £6.95 by Bourjois available at Boots and Superdrug stores nationwide.

Fed up with your man always nicking your makeup? Can’t imagine it’s a common problem but then what do I know! Anyway, the answer (if that should be your problem) lies in a brand new makeup for men range called Taxi Man. Available at Superdrug from Wednesday 6th August, the range is launching with this black eyeliner kohl, followed by Manscara (mascara for men, in case you can’t work that one out!), and then possibly a lip balm to follow, if all goes according to plan. Guyliner, £6.50.
