Drink drops
- POLLEN’S POWERBANK CBD DRINK DROPS, £55, 100ml, withpollen.com – buy now
POLLEN’S POWERBANK CBD DRINK DROPS boost energy levels.
A 2ml drop, in vanilla or honey flavour, gives a 10mg CBD serving and dissolves into your drink.
Recommended use is up to three times a day.
I added it to my morning coffee and it definitely gave me an energy burst.
Drink mix
- SOURCE OF LIFE GOLD DRINK MIX, £38.21, 540g, nvspharmacy.co.uk – buy now
SOURCE OF LIFE GOLD DRINK MIX is a food supplement packed with multivitamins to give you a feelgood health boost.
Add the mix to water or juice.
I wasn’t a fan of the earthy taste and found it hard to drink but I powered through and did feel more energised, alert and healthy.
I prefer it to popping pills.
Energy capsules
- GUT POWER ENERGY CAPSULES, £14.99, hollandandbarrett.com – buy now
GUT POWER ENERGY CAPSULES are based on the idea that the gut is key to overall health and energy.
Each one-a-day capsule contains 10billion live, friendly bacteria plus vitamins.
It also helps our metabolism.
I did feel energised and given the price, this is my pick.

Budget
- Eucerin dermo purify toner, £6.33 (reduced from £9.90), 200ml, escentual.com – buy now
Designed for oily and blemish-prone skin, it contains two per cent lactic acid to unblock pores and prevent blemishes without drying the skin.
Effective at reducing oil, too.
The acid tingles but this is a sign it is working.
At this price, a must-buy.
Mid-range
- Nuxe Very Rose refreshing toning mist, £15.50, 200ml, escentual.com – buy now
Gentle toner to soothe and balance the skin containing anti-inflammatory rose water.
Spray the light mist on to clean, dry skin, morning and night.
I prefer to apply toner with a cotton pad for better absorption but this is a nice, gentle alternative.
Suitable for all skin types.

Luxury
- Caudalie, Vinopure purifying toner, £18, 200ml, uk.caudalie.com – buy now
Promises to reduce imperfections, refine skin texture and minimise the appearance of pores.
I saw a big difference after continuous use, especially across my T-zone. My skin is at its clearest in years.
Best for combination skin. My favourite.
