Putting the new in new year

What’s new for 2025? There’s a few products for hair and skin to put on the ‘to try’ list this year.

For those with fine or thinning hair, Luna Professional Haircare is redefining the path to fuller, stronger locks with its revolutionary Thickening Range.

This expertly crafted three-step system—featuring a Thickening Shampoo (€14), Conditioner (€14), and Leave-In Treatment (€18)—works to amplify volume, strengthen strands, and enhance manageability from root to tip.

Designed to increase the diameter of individual hairs, this range transforms limp, lifeless locks into visibly thicker, denser, and healthier hair. Infused with powerhouse ingredients like rice proteins, green tea extract, and wheat amino acids, plus Luna’s cutting-edge ‘plex’ technology, each product works synergistically to fortify, nourish, and boost volume for a confidence-boosting transformation.

From flat to full-bodied, weak to strong, and dull to radiant, Luna Professional Haircare’s Thickening Range is your ultimate solution for hair that doesn’t just look thicker—it feels it. It it available from 30 January at Lunahaircare.ie, selected retailers, and stockists nationwide.

Revolutionising at-home skincare! That’s what Trinny London’s 0.3mm Plump Up Microneedle hopes to do.

Trinny London, the cult beauty brand renowned for its innovative approach to skincare, is bringing professional-level results to the comfort of your home with the launch of its 0.3mm Plump Up Microneedle.

Following the sell-out success of their 0.5mm version, this new tool is designed for those seeking smoother, plumper, and more radiant skin without any downtime. Featuring 540 stainless steel needles and an ergonomic handle, this gentle yet effective microneedling tool creates microchannels in the skin, stimulating its natural healing processes.

Pair it with Trinny London’s Plump Up Peptide+HA Serum to supercharge hydration and achieve firmer, rejuvenated skin. It launched this year on 6 January.

K18 Biomimetic Hairscience, the brand renowned for pushing the boundaries of haircare, has once again revolutionised the game with the introduction of AirWash Dry Shampoo (RRP €49).

Unlike traditional dry shampoos that merely absorb oil, this innovative formula transforms how you refresh your hair, ensuring it feels weightless, clean, and vibrant for up to three days—without the stiffness or powdery residue typically associated with dry shampoo.

What makes AirWash truly groundbreaking is its multifaceted approach to hair and scalp health.

Featuring translucent microbeads that absorb oil invisibly and K18’s proprietary odourBIND technology to neutralise odours at the source, it offers a fresh, light scent that lasts.

Perfect for extending time between washes, AirWash leaves hair feeling clean, voluminous, and refreshed like never before.

It’s not just a dry shampoo, it’s a reinvention.
