Listen: Speaking or products that are worth buying... in this episode of You Beauty, Leigh shares with Amy her fine-tuned skincare routine and which products she has to hunt overseas to find. But trust her, it's worth it. Post continues below.
Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair, $110.
"ANR may be pricey, but it's definitely worth it." - Talia.
"I've seen really fantastic reviews for this *everywhere*, so I was beyond excited to try it. I've been slathering it on my face for a couple of months now (I use it morning and night), and I can honestly say I've noticed a really positive difference in my skin. It's brighter. More hydrated. Healthier. Fewer breakouts. Definitely worth it, in my opinion.." - Erin
Maybelline Sky High Mascara, $14.99.
"I picked up this mascara (it's everywhere on TikTok) from Chemist Warehouse the other day (there were only three left!), and it's amazing. I can definitely see why it's selling out." - Charlotte.
Weleda Skin Food, $15.95.
"This helps with my dry cuticles so, so, so much! My partner uses it on his face in the winter, too. I find it a bit too thick for that, but at least its multi-use! " - Leah.
The Dyson Airwrap, $799.
"The Dyson Airwrap was worth everyyyy penny! It's honestly one of the best purchases I have ever made." - Maddie.
Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask, $42.
"This face mask is hyped for good reason. It's multi-purpose (I use it as a night cream, primer and overnight mask), fragrance-free and leaves your skin stupidly hydrated. It's one of my favourite skincare products ever." - Charlie.
Heros Chiropody Sponge, $2.99.
"For someone who loves walking barefoot but who still wants soft tootsies this is revolutionary!" - Anita.
Go-To Transformazing Sheet Mask, $9.
"I actually really like the Go-To face masks before I'm going out and wearing a lot of makeup. I find a lot of facemasks are bulls**t, but this one seems to prep the skin properly." - Andie.
MCoBeauty Extend Lash, $10.20.
"This is an absolute game changer." - Emma.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz, $38.
"I only just started using it and yes it's that good. So thin and the perfect colour." - Sarah.
Olaplex No.3 Hair Perfector Treatment, $100.
"I've had this recommended to me by my hairdresser, multiple celebrities and a bunch of influencers. And they were all..telling the truth. It literally gives my dry ends life again." - Tamara
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid, $12.90.
"I've repurchased this multiple times. Love it!"
Lancome Advanced Génifique Face Serum, $110.
"She isn't the cheapest serum you'll come across, but I think Lancome's Adavnced Génifique is worth the splurge. My skin looks so much clearer, brighter and healthier with this in my life." - Erin.
EyEnvy Eyelash and Eyebrow Conditioner.
"Absolutely worth the hype!" - Ingrid.
