IS THERE A NICER WAY TO WEAR A MASK?
A university hospital in San Antonio, Texas, found medics who spritzed their masks with aromatherapy oil not only found the masks smelled better, but the oil helped with breathing, too, creating a sense of calm.
Some of us don’t feel comfortable wearing face coverings, but according to Sinead Duffy, founder of aromatherapy brand Yogandha, even the smallest drop of precious oils can transform the experience of wearing a mask.
‘Not only do oils smell nice, but they can support the respiratory system and calm you down if you feel anxious,’ she says.

Spray your mask with new Love Joys(£12).
Fans of beauty capsules will be familiar with Elizabeth Arden’s pioneering products. The brand’s latest launch is Hyaluronic Acid Ceramide Capsules Hydra-Plumping Serum (£45 for 30), which hydrates skin leaving a dewy glow.
THREE OF THE BEST DRY SHAMPOOS
In your 50s
Batiste Skinnydip Nice (£2.99) is a sweetly-scented spray that instantly refreshes hair. It has been designed with accessory brand Skinnydip.
In your 60s
Innersense Refresh (£22) has a foam-to-powder texture that feels like it’s soaking up oil. It dries up greasy roots using witch hazel and tapioca starch while adding fullness to hair.
In your 70s
Amika Phantom Hydrating (£10) is perfect for all hair types and has a foam texture that absorbs oil. It dissolves instantly without leaving a sticky residue.
Voce Viva, the new scent from Valentino, now has a big voice behind it, as the Italian couture house has appointed pop star Lady Gaga to sing the fragrance’s praises in its publicity campiagn. (Voce Viva translates from the Latin roughly as ‘living voice’.)
Fashionistas will notice that the little gold spikes running up the lid of the bottle are a nod to Valentino’s popular Rockstud shoes, beloved by celebrities including JLo, Reese Witherspoon and, we now assume, Lady Gaga.
