The Ordinary's toner is a festival must-have but £3 alternative is just as good
Festival season is upon us, and while your outfit may take priority, your beauty bag is key to getting you through the weekend - here's how to keep your skin flawless As festival season makes a comeback, while outfits may seem like the top priority, your beauty bag is key to getting you through the weekend. But keeping your skin fresh, protected and glowing during a festival is a big ask during long days, heat and limited access to running water. Before you dive into the festival chaos, prepping your skin in the lead-up is key to maintaining a fresh, radiant glow. Dermatologist Dr Alexis Granite says a little exfoliation is a great first step, and recommends The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner - retailing at just £7.70. "A little light exfoliation is a great way to get your skin festival ready," says Dr Granite, founder of Joonbyrd. "AHAs such as glycolic acid and lactic acid are good ingredient options for a radiance boost." According to Skinsort, Boots Ingredients Glycolic Acid Toner is a good match for The Ordinary and can save you £4. These products are both vegan, cruelty-free, and reef safe toners. They both contain AHAs and are both likely to be good for fighting acne, anti aging, dry skin, dark spots and better texture. Dr Granite also says a calming sheet mask the day before the event can also help hydrate and soothe your skin. Using ultra-hydrating products ahead of the weekend – like swapping out your gel cleanser for a cream or balm – will help lock in hydration for the coming days. "Give your skin a thorough cleanse with [an] effective deeply cleansing oil-to-milk cleansing balm," says holistic facialist and Weleda skincare expert, Elizabeth King. "After your first cleanse reapply a second layer and leave on for 10 minutes," she says, as this helps plump and replenish your skin even further. The Weleda Skin Food Nourishing Cleansing Balm is a great option for getting your double cleanse on lock while at a festival. Amidst the excitement of a festival – with limited amenities – sticking to a full skincare regimen is often not feasible. Granite suggests paring back your typical cleansing routine to "cleansing pads and micellar water" for maintaining cleanliness sans running water. She also recommends using oil-free moisturiser and sunscreen to help avoid clogged pores, adding: "Try to avoid touching your face often with your hands. You can also carry pimple patches as needed for when you're in a pinch." For those who prefer their regular cleanser that necessitates water, King advises bringing "a small airtight container of dampened cotton pads pre-prepared with a little boiled water", enabling a thorough cleanse even without tap access. And certainly don't neglect hand sanitiser before applying makeup or skincare. You can score yourself some Garnier Micellar Water Facial Cleanser Sensitive Skin for only £4.49 (formerly £8.99) at Boots. While pre-festival preparation focuses on protection and hydration, post-festival skincare is all about repair and replenishment. Granite stresses the importance of drinking plenty of clear fluids to "amp up your overall hydration levels". The solution to dehydration is a simple fix: electrolytes. These replenish both liquid levels and salts faster than a glass of water. A daily dose of electrolyte blends in the morning is both safe and smart planning, jumping ahead of summer plans in the sun that might leave us lightheaded.

Woman who sued Boots pharmacy settles High Court action
A woman who claimed she suffered a brain bleed and stroke after taking migraine medication she bought at a Boots pharmacy has settled a High Court action against the pharmacy giant. Ms Justice Denise Brett, on the third day of the action, was told the case had been settled. The settlement is without an admission of liability. Advertisement In the proceedings, it was claimed that the medication was allegedly inappropriately sold to Sigrid O'Meara, and there was an alleged failure to advise her that the migraine medication is contraindicated with an antidepressant drug she was taking. This is due to a significant interaction between the two medications, which it was claimed can lead to a significant increase in blood pressure and stroke. All of the claims were vehemently denied by Boots. It said it could not remember Ms O'Meara but said protocol dictates that anyone purchasing that €11.99 migraine medication is referred to a pharmacist. Sigrid O'Meara had taken the migraine medication when she woke with a terrible headache on March 26, 2020. She took two tablets she had purchased from a Longford Boots pharmacy the previous October. Advertisement It was further contended that she felt dizzy and collapsed and had to be brought by ambulance to hospital. A scan showed she had a brain bleed, and she was transferred to a Dublin hospital. She was discharged from hospital a month later and was recorded as having severe left leg weakness, difficulties with her left arm and had to go for rehabilitation. Sigrid O'Meara (63), from Ballincurry, Longford has sued Boots Retail (Ireland) Ltd with a registered address at Citywest Business Campus, Citywest, Dublin. She claims she bought the migraine medication at Boots Pharmacy, Ballymahon Street, Longford. It was claimed that Ms O'Meara was caused to suffer a haemorrhagic stroke in March 2020, which it was contended, was precipitated by her ingestion of a migraine medication which was allegedly inappropriately sold allegedly without the advice that it was contraindicated to a prescribed drug she was already on. Advertisement It was claimed that at the pharmacy, she was allegedly told that the migraine medication she required was no longer available in Ireland, and an alternative medication for migraines and cluster headaches was allegedly offered. Ms O'Meara purchased a blister pack of two tablets, and it was alleged that the pharmacist was not consulted. Boots disputed this and said while they did not remember Ms O'Meara, protocol requires that anybody buying the migraine medicine has to be referred to the pharmacist. In the proceedings it was claimed that a product which allegedly could impose a hazard to Ms O'Meara's health was supplied and there was an alleged failure by the pharmacy sales assistant at the time to ensure the pharmacist was advised that the supply of that particular migraine medication may be considered. Advertisement It was further claimed that there was an alleged failure by the pharmacist to ascertain that the woman's headache had never been diagnosed as migraine by a doctor. It was contended in such circumstances, the migraine medication she purchased should not have been supplied. All of the claims were denied, and Boots said that Ms O'Meara was aware that the medication purchased at the pharmacy had never been diagnosed as suitable for her and that she had a significant history of migraines as well as other medical issues, which Boots claims was her responsibility to notify and seek advice on. Boots said it had no other way of being aware Ms O'Meara was taking a form of medication which was likely to interact negatively with a variety of different medications. Ms O'Meara, Boots contended, was the author of her own misfortune, and it claimed there was alleged contributory negligence on her part in allegedly failing to disclose that she was taking another particular drug and allegedly failing to seek advice on the choice of medicines.
