September Favourites [2020]

My September 2020 beauty favourites are here. I’m late. September was nearly done by the time I got this posted and honestly I almost didn’t do it at all because I kept thinking it wasn’t the right time. Then I decided that was ridiculous and I should just do it.

September favourites covering the products I kept reaching for that month – scalp care, hair products, skincare. All purchased by me unless stated otherwise. September is also Alopecia Awareness Month, which feels relevant since a lot of my favourite products that month were things that genuinely help with managing hair loss day-to-day.

FAQ

What hair products work well for thinning hair?

Lightweight volumising products, scalp serums targeting hair density, sulphate-free shampoos, and dry texture powders for root grip are the most useful categories for thinning hair. Avoid heavy oils and rich styling creams that weigh fine hair down.

What skincare is good for rosacea and sensitive skin?

For rosacea and sensitive skin, fragrance-free formulas are essential. Ingredients with evidence for rosacea include azelaic acid, niacinamide, and centella asiatica. Avoid actives that increase skin sensitivity like strong exfoliants until your barrier is stable. SPF every day without exception.
