15 Minute Beauty Secrets

Look beautiful in a jiffy with these all-natural face and hair masks

From facial detoxes to revitalising hair creams, there’s a 15 minute solution for almost every beauty dilemma. Whether you suffer from dryness or are prone to breakouts, treat yourself to a quick pamper. Not sure what product to try? Look no further as we’ve compiled some of our beauty essentials for radiant skin and luscious locks.

Skin saviours

Have soft and supple skin that exudes a radiant glow in no time

Sweet as honey

For soft supple skin, treat it to a layer of honey. The sweet stuff is naturally anti-bacterial and is great for treating spots and blemishes, and even acne! Don’t fancy getting sticky with a jar of golden deliciousness? Try Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask instead. Apply a thick coating across your face and neck, leave for 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water for an intense moisturising, cleansing and anti-oxidising treatment.

Weekend vibes

After a glass (read: bottle) too many, a week of detoxing is usually our first point of call to rid the body of nasty toxins and other weekend naughties. But do you ever consider detoxing your skin? We’re not talking about your daily cleanse and tone routine, but a rejuvenating mask containing purifying ingredients. We love Caudalie’s Instant Detox Mask for a quick Sunday night pick-me-up in time for Monday.

Under the sheet

There’s a real buzz around sheet masks of late, and it’s easy to see why. Great for a range of skin complaints, the simple to use sheets (complete with eye, nose and mouth holes) are packed with the right amount of product for your skin’s needs. Say goodbye to clumpy masks and wasting products and hello to one of the easiest beauty saviours on the shelves. A favourite at NH HQ is 7th Heaven’s Brazillian Mud Sheet Masque which boasts avocado and acai berries as its key ingredients…as well as the skin-loving Brazillian mud.

Instant pick-me-up

Inject life and body into dry hair with a little help from Weleda. Its Oat Replenishing Treatment is great for a mid-week fix, especially as it only needs to be left on damp hair for five to 10 minutes. Packed with organic shea butter that helps form a protective layer over the outer cuticle of your hair, this treatment leaves locks so luscious you’ll wonder how you ever survived without it.
