From super speedy straighteners and bubblegum-scented rabbit-shaped soaps to<br />
cult celebrity-stamped faves, here’s what the <strong>03</strong> team are testing this month.<br />
1. Model mouth<br />
Cult celeb-endorsed product<br />
alert! Co-created with Kendall<br />
Jenner, MOON’s Oral Beauty<br />
Teeth Whitening Pen ($40 at<br />
Mecca) promises to instantly<br />
brighten and whiten teeth<br />
and freshen breath. As well<br />
as urea peroxide for effective<br />
yet gentle whitening, it<br />
contains ELIXIR III, MOON’s<br />
proprietary blend of lavender<br />
oil, strawberry fruit extract and<br />
honeysuckle flower extract,<br />
and has an addictively delish<br />
mint vanilla flavour. To apply,<br />
just shake, click, smile and<br />
brush on, waiting 30 seconds<br />
before closing your mouth and<br />
10-30 minutes before eating<br />
or drinking.<br />
5. Star colour<br />
We’re always partial to a<br />
little Gwyneth Paltrowendorsed<br />
beauty product,<br />
and as lovers of a neat<br />
and nifty multi-tasker are<br />
already putting her latest,<br />
GOOP Colour Balm<br />
($62 at Mecca, pictured<br />
in Slipper), to work<br />
whenever we need a lush<br />
low-key hit of healthylooking,<br />
creamy colour.<br />
Infused with vitamins C<br />
and E, this multipurpose<br />
hydrating balm adds an<br />
effortless pop of sheer,<br />
buildable colour wherever<br />
you need it, with a subtle<br />
blurring effect and no<br />
pore-clogging cakeyness.<br />

4. Easter rocks<br />
Lush never lets us down when it<br />
comes to fun yet still efficacious<br />
products, and this Rock Star Rabbit<br />
Soap ($15) is no exception. Adorable,<br />
pink and bubblegum-scented, it’s part<br />
of Lush’s limited edition Easter release<br />
and is rich in Fair Trade organic cocoa<br />
butter and organic virgin coconut<br />
oil for a decadently softening and<br />
cleansing lather.<br />

2. Smooth operator<br />
Touted as the holy grail of<br />
hair styling, ghd’s Chronos<br />
Hair Straightener ($500)<br />
is the innovative brand’s<br />
most advanced styler<br />
to date. Named for the<br />
goddess of time, Chronos<br />
works a stunning three<br />
times faster than previous<br />
takes on the tool,<br />
without the compromise<br />
of damage. The brand<br />
spanking new HDresponsive<br />
technology<br />
allows this slick device to<br />
act super fast for onestroke<br />
results while still<br />
offering up to 85 percent<br />
more shine and triple the<br />
breakage protection.<br />
3. Buffy the dead skin slayer<br />
Gentle enough for everyday use,<br />
Dr LeWinn’s latest cleanser release,<br />
Daily Polishing Powder ($65) contains<br />
niacinamide to visibly brighten and<br />
even out skin tone, restore moisture<br />
and soften fine lines and salicylic acid<br />
to dissolve deeper into the pores and<br />
exfoliate dead skin cells. To use, dispense<br />
into very wet hands to create a milky<br />
paste by rubbing hands together. Apply<br />
to face in circular motions, massage gently<br />
for one minute, then rinse thoroughly.
