Glass Beauty Director Kim Brown’s guide to beauty at home

WHILE it may not be the most important thing on everyone’s minds right now, incorporating beauty and self-care into our daily routines can make us feel instantly nourished, pampered and radiant. Even with children at home, I’ve found that I definitely have extra time on my hands. With more downtime than usual, it can feel increasingly difficult to maintain a sense of routine, but I’ve found that taking care of my health and wellbeing has really helped to elevate my mood and mental health. Here are a few of my favourite products, treatments and self care, which you can practice and use from the comfort of your home.

Vitamin Injections London Vitamin Infused Miracle Mask

Vitamin Injections London Vitamin Infused Miracle Mask – £40

I was first introduced to Vitamin Injections London last year while judging the Attracta Beauty Awards. The brand’s founder Bianca Estelle is a multi-award winning skin specialist who has applied her medical knowledge and years of experience to the creation of these brand new, vitamin packed products. The Vitamin Infused Miracle Mask works amazingly to tackle multiple skin concerns, such as acne, dehydration and stress.

This luxurious product is highly effective in firming and tightening the skin, and I often use it on my clients before an event as the face-lifting effects are almost instant. It works great as either a quick fix before applying make-up, or left on overnight for a more intensive treatment. Perfect during lockdown for an early face to face meeting online.

MZ Skin Light Therapy Golden Treatment Mask

MZ Skin Light Therapy Golden Treatment Mask – £325

Albeit an extravagant investment, what better way to spend what would have previously gone towards your daily coffee and work commute?

I’ve noticed a significant difference with this mask and it can be used up to three or four times a week, with five coloured lights to target different skin concerns.

Dr. LeWinn’s Renunail 3 Step to Longer Nails – £27

I’ve been trying to take advantage of my time at home by treating my hair, nails and lashes to some much needed self-care. It’s a great time to remove false nails and use oils and strengtheners to get them back into good health and shape.

RevitaLash Advanced Eyelash Conditioner

RevitaLash Advanced Eyelash Conditioner £89

I’ve been using this product on my lashes for years, but I’ve been using it increasingly more while I take a break from wearing mascara. Although it is certainly a lavish purchase, it is a serious investment that lasts for ages and actually works, which I find to be a rarity in many other eyelash products. It conditions lashes by encouraging length and thickness, while working as a preventative against brittle lashes.
