The Better Menopause range has earned impressive reviews; Better Gut boasts a 4.7-star rating on the company's website. One customer commented: "I had been looking at a lot of different probiotics, but this one seemed to be the best suited to my peri menopause symptoms, so I gave it a try. "I've only been on it for five weeks, but I already notice that I am a lot less bloated and my digestion is feeling better. Sleep is getting better also. I was having gut issues last year and wish I had found these sooner." However, not all users were convinced, with one individual stating: "It took away my mood, but I still slept two hours or three, wish I could sleep all night." Another purchaser remarked: "No difference so far." But someone else piped up: "I have been using the Better Gut for a year now, and it has helped with my bloating. I really recommend it." And another said: "Still early days, but I feel better. I have been taking Better Gut for two weeks and am looking forward to seeing how much better I will feel after the third month. I would definitely recommend this product."

Sale sees Garnier Ultimate Blends trio that 'makes hair thick in 2 weeks' drop to £10
'Thanks to this combination, it's now thicker and fuller after using for two weeks' If your hair is feeling a little limp, frazzled or just generally lacklustre after a summer of sun, heat and heat styling, you're not alone– but this under £10 bundle from Garnier might just be the fix your damaged ends are crying out for. Boots has just slashed the price of the Garnier Ultimate Blends Nourish & Smooth Banana Haircare Bundle to £10 (down from £22) – and shoppers are raving about it. You get the full-size 350ml shampoo, conditioner and 400ml 3-in-1 hair mask for less than the price of a takeaway, and fans say it's helped them achieve noticeably thicker, healthier hair in as little as two weeks. Designed for dry, frizzy or damaged hair, the trio uses plant-based ingredients and a creamy banana scent that smells good enough to eat. It's silicone-free too, so ideal if you're looking to repair your hair without weighing it down or leaving it feeling product laden. With a fair few glowing reviews on the Boots site alone, the set has earned an impressive 4.5-star average, and the word 'thicker' pops up in a lot of them. One happy customer wrote: "I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this product. Used it for 10 days straight every day on holidays, came back and everyone thought I had gotten extensions!!" Another said: "My hair was very dry and overprocessed. Thanks to this combination, it's now thicker and fuller after two weeks of use." "Bought this bundle on the £10 Tuesday offer - amazing value!! Actually bought it for my daughter, who is an avid fan & consistent user of this range. Product smells lovely & leaves hair feeling, looking & smelling amazing!" penned a third. And they're not wrong – the scent is often described as 'like a smoothie for your hair', thanks to the banana extract. But it's not just about the smell alone (though it's a good enough reason to hand over your tenner). The real magic comes from the formula, which blends coconut oil and shea butter for deep nourishment, plus plant keratin to help strengthen strands from root to tip. It's worth noting that the mask can be used three different ways: as a rinse-out conditioner, a leave-in treatment, or a deep mask if you've got time for a bit of extra self-care. One reviewer even said it brought their over-bleached ends 'back from the dead' after one overnight treatment. While the overwhelming feedback is very positive for the banana bundle, one shopper on Lookfantastic, where the mask is priced at £4.50 in the summer sale, offers a different perspective: "I have 3b/3c hair and this is a nice mask. It has a good slip but it's not hydrating enough for my hair. I wouldn't use it as a leave in for this reason." At full price, the trio is already a decent value, but right now it's part of a limited-time Boots bundle deal that knocks the price down to £10 for all three full-size products (offering a £12 saving). Basically, you're buying the mask (£9 on its own) and getting the shampoo and conditioner for £1. If you're not quite convinced, or like the idea of the results but not the banana smell, Olaplex is also running a good offer on some of its repairing hair favourites. The Strong Start Hair Kit was £28 but is now £21, and gives you a travel-sized selection of five wash and styling products.

Amazon users praise 'holy grail' £14 rosemary oil that makes hair 'grow like crazy'
Beauty fans can't stop raving over the results that has left their locks "noticeable stronger and healthier." By now we've all heard about the benefits of using rosemary oil in our hair routine. From new growth to scalp protection, it's said to offer many benefits. With so many different bottles available to buy these days, it can be difficult to find one worth spending money on. Fortunately, Amazon shoppers have found one they say makes hair "grow like crazy." It's the Artnaturals Organic Rosemary Castor Hair Oil and Scalp Massager Kit. Boasting an incredible 4.5 rating overall, it will only set beauty enthusiasts back just £14.67. The particular kit is said to provide a "holistic approach" to hair and scalp care, with the "lightweight" blend of four different oils to create an elixir that doesn't just promote hair growth, but healthier-looking strands overall. It's main ingredient is, of course, rosemary oil for hair growth and scalp care, while castor oil helps to strengthen and moisturize. Meanwhile, olive oil offers nourishment and softness, while coconut oil offers hydration and conditioning. With all four combined in just one 118ml bottle, reviews have suggested that it is a "game changer" for dry, damaged hair, with some saying their tresses have "never looked so alive." The kit also comes complete with a scalp massager to boost blood circulation to the scalp, further supporting new growth, alongside gently cleansing and exfoliating the scalp, while also boosting a sense of wellbeing. Meanwhile, over at Lookfantastic, shoppers can get this Grow Gorgeous Healthy Scalp Duo, that offers a two-month treatment, for £39, down from £57, offering a 30 per cent discount. And Superdrug is offering a great value bundle with this Nature Spell Growth Complex Hair Growth Set that costs £29.99, and it comes complete with a shampoo, conditioner, mask, leave-in conditioner and hair oil. However, beauty buffs who have purchased the Artnaturals kit have branded it as a "holy grail" product, as it has "saved" dry, damaged hair in need of some TLC. One shopper who branded the oil a "miracle" praised: "I've been using this hair oil for a few weeks now, and I'm already seeing amazing results! "My hair feels noticeably stronger and healthier, and I'm starting to see new growth around my hairline. The oil is lightweight and doesn't leave any greasy residue, so it's easy to apply daily. "I also love that it doesn't have a strong scent, making it perfect for layering with other products. Highly recommend this if you're looking to strengthen your hair and promote growth!" A second five-star review read: "I love it sooo much. It is my holy grail, it saved my damaged hair and made it start growing like crazy. If u want hair repair I highly recommend this hair oil, it will save your hair in many many ways." It may be worth noting that the consistency of the oil might not be suitable for everyone, as one three-star review read: "Very greasy on the scalp and hair. Difficult to wash off." Beauty deal of the week YSL Black Opium remains an iconic perfume - and we know where to bag the newest edition for its cheapest price. The YSL BLack Opium Le Parfum offers a more vanilla-heavy fragrance that has been hailed as "intoxicating" in reviews, with a 50ml now half-price at Boots after being dropped from £115 to £57.50. Massive saving aside, it's the cheapest it can be bought for at the moment, as rival retailers Superdrug, Lookfantastic and The Perfume Shop still stock it at full-price. This interpretation of the iconic perfume was only launched in 2022, with its original floral gourmand fragrance still offering its famed notes that include pear accord, green mandarin, orange flower petals, jasmine sambac and cinnamon. However, the iconic coffee accord has been twisted with four different, yet still complimentary, notes of vanilla, which is said to be its most important ingredient, to create an "unexpected smoothness, with uncompromising intensity." Meanwhile, the unique glossy bottle that has been crafted from a precious black stone, with its dazzling glitter emblem at the heart, eludes to the luxuriousness of the fragrance contained within. As for the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum, Boots shoppers wanting to take advantage of the half-price discount will be glad to hear it has amassed a 4.7 rating from thousands of customers who say it "lasts all day" and "literally turns heads" when it is worn. One five-star review read: "I love the fragrance. I used a lot the first time, not realising how intense it was. It lasts all day and continues to smell great. I literally turn heads when I wear it." Don't miss Boots' half-price discount on the YSL Black Opium Le Parfum (50ml) that is now £57.50, down from £115. Comparatively, another five-star review read: "This product is absolutely amazing! I was losing a lot of hair due to stress and I started using this 3x a week (minimum) I would normally leave on overnight and pop a silk bonnet on. Within 2 weeks I could see regrowth! And also leaves your hair feeling amazing once washed out to, not greasy. Highly recommend!" And someone else praising the results said: "Already seeing new growth around my hairline, and had also been helping improve the appearance of my dry, split ends. A little goes a long way with this product, so this bottle should last me ages!" Purchase the Artnaturals Organic Rosemary Castor Hair Oil and Scalp Massager Kit for £14.67 on Amazon.

‘I found an innovative red light LED hair brush that's perfect for encouraging faster hair growth'
Shopping Writer Meghan has found an red light hair brush that's said to help encourage hair to grow back faster and healthier - and it comes with a budget-friendly price tag Red light therapy is all the rage at the moment, as beauty buffs bask in its benefits for the skin, especially when it comes to rejuvenating a dull complexion and combating signs of ageing. That said, red light doesn't just stop there. It's been proven that red light therapy can also help stimulate the scalp, helping hair follicles to reproduce faster and healthier. Red light can help reverse hair loss and encourage hair to grow back fuller, stronger, and shinier than before. CurrentBody, a brand known for its LED red light beauty gadgets, offers an LED Hair Growth Helmet that, with regular use, can increase hair growth rate by 128% in 12 weeks. That said, this CurrentBody helmet retails for the hefty price of £649.99. But if you're looking for a way to add red light to your haircare routine without blowing the bank, this LED hair brush that I found may be just the ticket. This StylPro Root Renew Hairbrush is a red light therapy hairbrush designed for daily use. It increases volume and creates polished touch-ups to your hairdo. What's more, this hair brush retails for a fraction of the price of other red light therapies, selling for £39.99 at Lookfantastic. It's also available from Boots, Next, Superdrug, and Amazon for the same price. This StylePro Root Renew Hairbrush is thoughtfully designed with both beauty and functionality in mind. The innovative brush effortlessly nurtures the scalp to promote optimal conditions for healthy-looking hair growth, using red light that stimulates the blood flow of oxygen and essential nutrients to hair follicles, increasing hair density and faster growth. Boasting a handy shape that ensures targeted treatment for optimal scalp coverage in patches that need attention. Perfect for busy mornings, midday touch-ups, or post-work transitions, the Root Renew Hairbrush is a great choice for both at-home and on-the-go use. Combining haircare and smart technology, the red-light therapy brush has a 655mm LED light and soothing vibrations to help reduce the rate of hair loss while creating a sleeker, rejuvenated finish. What's great about this hairbrush is that it's completely cordless and capable of being recharged periodically. So you can easily throw this small gadget in your bag to use when you're outside of the house or while you're at home, going about your everyday chores. Equipped with 49x LED Bristles that make this brush feel like your average hairbrush, the StylPro Root Renew promotes hair growth and improves hair health by stimulating the scalp, boosting circulation, and enhancing follicle activity with expert-recommended wavelengths. Designed with ergonomically curved bristles, this Silicone brush comfortably contours to the scalp, providing targeted therapy while ensuring a gentle, effective massage for all hair types, whether thick, fine, or textured. Its customizable approach ensures a comfortable and effective treatment for everyone, promoting hair health without compromise, while stimulating hair follicles and encouraging thicker, healthier hair. I can't attest to the long-term benefits of this hairbrush yet, but plenty of shoppers have been quick to sing its praises. One 5-star reviewer raves: "Love this brush I use it at night so relaxing. It also seems to make my hair feel like there's more of it lol. As I'm a fine haired gal this makes me very happy. Can't comment on hair growth as haven't been using it long enough." Another buyer beams: "Great, easy tool to use, been using it for a few weeks and seeing small improvements to thicker hair growing from my scalp!" Further accolades come from this customer who shares: "Amazing!! I have never tried anything like this before, and it has done wonders for my hair health! After only a couple of months of using, I have seen new baby hair growth and less breakage around my scalp!" And a further shopper chimes in: "I've been using this every other day and it's really relaxing on a night before bed. The vibration gives a really lovely massage and relieves any head tension. After around 2 weeks of use I've noticed less hair is coming out when I brush. Excited to see the prolonged results!"
