What ONE beauty product would you never be without?

[fromthevault]

I'm going to try and do a no-buy / low-buy 2025 and really pare down the products I buy / use in the future. I think I'm pretty low-maintenance anyway, but even I seem to have accumulated a ton of (probably mostly unnecessary) stuff.

Looking at my stash today I was trying to work out what my 'desert island' product would be and tbh I think it might just have to be a big old tub of Vaseline! Cheap, versatile, but not exactly exciting. So just out of interest, what's your 'if I can only buy one thing this year' product?

I was looking to see if anyone had mentioned La Roche Posay Cicaplast (although I use the gel) and then I noticed your user name @renoleno !!!

I love Liz Earle super skin products and also I found a Garnier tinted sunscreen this year. Great on its own and works really well with mixed with my foundation. Gives a good finish to my mature skin.

Tough question, Charlotte Mensah Manketti Hair Oil is probably my favourite product of all time so I'd maybe go for that? Otherwise, I'd probably be another vote for EA 8 hour cream.

It's been life changing for me! A one tube wonder for every skin ailment.

Factor 50 board spectrum sunscreen.

Hair mask, my hair will get matted in seconds and a good mask and hair serum help a lot. I'd struggle without either.
