Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or is a luxurious oil that usually costs £33 for a full-size bottle, but you can try it for less than £2 in this bundle of glow-boosting beauty products

Some beauty products have undeniable cult classic, ‘hall of fame’ status, and one such item is Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or. This shimmery oil can be used on the body, face and even hair to give a gorgeous summery sheen, and smells incredible too. It doesn’t come cheap, however, with a full-size 100ml bottle currently costing £33 on Lookfantastic. However, I’ve found a way for you to try it out for just a couple of quid.

You’ll find a 10ml travel-size bottle of Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or Florale inside this month’s new OK! Beauty Box, called the Glow-Getter Edit, along with four other glow-boosting beauty products. The box costs just £8.99 to first-time subscribers, which means that each of the five products inside could be given a value of around £1.80 when buying this box – significantly less than what it would cost to buy them individually. In fact, the contents inside are worth over £90 in total, saving you over £80 in total. Bargain!

Other radiance-enhancing products you’ll find inside include a suits-all cleanser worth almost £40, a plumping and firming sheet mask, a sparkly lip gloss and a pretty powder highlighter. Here’s exactly what’s inside:

• Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or Florale – 10ml travel-size, worth £4.40
• Makeup Revolution Shimmer Bomb Lip Gloss in the shade Sparkle – 4.5ml full-size, worth £5.99
• Mudmasky Glow-Up Cleanser – 60ml full-size, worth £39.99
• Luna by Luna Highlight in the shade Moonbeam – 3g full-size, worth £15
• Hello Skin Bio-Collagen Firming Treatment Mask – one mask, worth £18
• Plus a voucher to redeem not for two copies of OK! Magazine – RRP £8.80

After signing up and getting your first box for £8.99, your monthly deliveries are £15 from then on; the box’s contents will always be worth at least £80, and you can pause or cancel your subscription at any time.

With three of the products individually worth more than the entire cost of the Glow-Getter Edit – and healthy, radiant skin never going out of fashion – this is an excellent way to try some new products (or old favourites) for less.

I’d say it’s worth it just for the Nuxe oil and the Mudmasky cleanser on its own, as they’re both normally quite expensive and are super-handy for holidays, and the other three treats inside just make it even better value. The powder highlighter also doubles up as a pretty eyeshadow, and the Revolution Shimmer Bomb gloss is perfect for festival season (it is very spangly).

If you’re looking for another beauty deal that gets you your holiday essentials for less, the Boots Minis Bag Get Holiday Ready costs £32 but is worth over £120, and contains top brands such as MAC, Laneige and Sol de Janeiro.

Lookfantastic’s The Summer Heroes Edit is also a great deal, priced at £45 but worth over £150, and containing the likes of Caudalie, Iconic London and ESPA.

Following the Sussexes’ viral Baby Momma dance video, a PR expert explains why the rumours of a royal reality show could be bad news for their extended royal family

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex could be set to film their own fly-on-the-wall documentary series which, given their history of spilling the beans, could spell trouble for the royal family. After Meghan released her now-viral twerking video, experts say there’s more signs than ever that the couple are “breaking the mould” of royal life and are ready to take steps into the lucrative world of reality television.

“It looks very much like they would love to do a reality show,” says PR guru Dermot McNamara. “She’s sharing far more of her personal, fun life with Harry and the children, and focusing on the fun and light-hearted side of themselves. Meghan is as popular as she is polarising and that makes TV gold because everyone has an opinion on her. In this throwaway, digital society we want big pop culture moments – and Meghan and Harry deliver those, so the channels will be very keen to sign them up.”

While Meghan is set to release the second season of her very polished With Love, Meghan series later this year, a reality show would be the first of its kind for the California-based couple. But given their history of dropping bombshells when the cameras start rolling, a source tells us that a Kardashian-esque programme could spell bad news for the UK royals.

“We can see that Meghan and Harry don’t feel they have to stay silent any more, it’s clear in the interviews they’ve done, and the other shows,” our source claims. “So if they go on to film more, and especially if they discuss their relationship with William and Kate, for example, it would probably be a nightmare for the rest of the family.”

Meghan’s twerking video, which lasts just under 90 seconds, shows a heavily pregnant Meghan, 43, and Prince Harry, 40, dancing to the Starrkeisha song The Baby Momma in an attempt to kick off her labour with Lilibet, now four.

At the time of going to press the twerking reel had amassed over 46 million views, making it Meghan’s most-watched video on her account by a long way. Only her launch video for As Ever, which was posted back in February, comes anywhere close with 27.8m views so far.

The clip inevitably created a storm online, with some followers calling it “cringe”. One person accused the couple of “ruining the reputation and respect of the royal family, one Instagram post at a time”.

Following the backlash, a national newspaper quoted a source saying that Meghan “doesn’t care about the haters in Britain” and that the clip had gone down a storm and was seen as “relatable” in the US.

The BBC’s former royal correspondent Jennie Bond, however, told the Mirror it was “utterly bizarre” of Meghan to release the clip, and that King Charles would have been “horrified” if he’d watched it.

Dermot agrees that as working royals, Kate and William have certain standards to uphold and an “image to portray and maintain”, which would likely be at odds with a reality-style show.

“Reality shows and Netflix documentaries are embarrassing for the royals because they can’t and haven’t ever done them. Yes we see them being more outgoing, talking about mental health and things, but Meghan’s labour video, with her twerking and Harry ‘dad dancing’, goes beyond that.”

The fact that TV producers would no doubt welcome the couple discussing their fall-outs on camera complicates things further, he says, adding, “It often happens that one side is seen to be fighting more than the other, and no one really comes out of it looking great.”

When they stepped back as working royals and moved to the US in 2020, it was widely presumed that this was driven by the couple’s desire for privacy.

However, when their first joint Netflix series was released two years later and they were accused of hypocrisy, they hit back via an official statement from their global press secretary. This read, “The Duke and Duchess have never cited privacy as the reason for stepping back. This distorted narrative was intended to trap the couple into silence.”

According to Dermot, With Love, Meghan made it clear that there’s an appetite for the couple sharing their personal life – and that appetite is growing.

“Meghan is very happy with parts of her public life being out there and she knows there’s great interest in her life. She’s learned that this is what people are interested in, this is what she can commercialise.”

Hollyoaks actress Jorgie Porter, who has son Forest and daughter Peony, has candidly opened up on motherhood and plans to marry Oliver Piotrowski after a four year-long engagement

Soap actress Jorgie Porter has revealed she still is yet to plan her wedding to beau Oliver Piotrowski, despite getting engaged four years ago.

Hollyoaks star Jorgie, 37, announced her engagement to her real estate developer beau Oliver towards the end of 2021. She shared the joyous news on her Instagram at the time, posting a photo of herself with Oliver flashing her huge new rock. She simply captioned the post: “OMG.“

Four years on, the pair have welcomed two wonderful children together; Forest, two, and Peony, who was born in December. In an exclusive chat with the Mirror, at the Pro Am Padel tour launch event, Jorgie revealed why the pair are yet to walk down the aisle and say ‘I do’.

When asked if there are any wedding plans, Jorgie jokes about her lengthy engagement. “How long? Four years I think! I didn’t plan this,” she quips.

The soap star mum then reveals why there is yet to be wedding bells for her a Oliver. “No I’m stupid at planning, I’m a bad planner,” she confesses. “Because whenever I’ve had Hollyoaks work we never are scheduled so I never know what day it is. We even work on Saturdays. You can ask me now what day it is, I don’t know. I don’t know the day, the month, because you have to always be ready to work because they can call you up because…

“So planning for me is just… I’m waiting for the wedding to come to me I think. It’ll just come when it’s ready. Maybe a padel wedding, I’m joking!,” she quipped while at the Pro Am Padel tour event.

Jorgie gave birth to Peony in December and has candidly admitted to the Mirror that motherhood to two children is very different than it is to being a mum to one.

When asked how she’s finding the new phase of motherhood, Jorgie tells the Mirror: “It’s hard. Nobody tells you that it’s the hardest thing in the world because you’ve got a toddler that wants all your attention and you’ve, obviously, got a little baby that’s attached to you, literally that is another level of mum-ness. It is hard. We’re in the trenches, this is the trenches we’re deep in there.“

Juggling two children is tricky for a number of reasons, but Jorgie reveals she finds her son Forest’s jealousy particularly difficult – but is making slow progress helping her eldest adjust to the new family dynamic. She explains: “Honestly, it’s great but I think there’s jealousy bits when the toddler is like, ‘you’re my mummy, get off this one, put her in the carseat’, like, ‘No Forest, we’re cuddling her’.

“It’s tricky because he can’t understand that I’m her Mummy, too. But he does know, it’s weird. It’s very hard to navigate. It’s going there, it’s brilliant. I think there’s everyday you go, ‘Oh that’s a win, that’s brilliant, we’re out together in a pram, we did it’. So it is going well.”

Ioan Gruffudd and wife Bianca have announced they are expecting their first baby together. It comes just two months after the pair tied the knot in a lavish cliffside ceremony.

The child will be Ioan Gruffudd’s third, with the actor sharing two daughters with ex wife Alice Evans.

The Fantastic Four actor, 51, and Aussie actress Bianca, 32, shared the exciting news to Instagram on Sunday morning. The couple posted a sweet black and white photo of Ioan kissing his wife’s growing baby bump.

“Baby Gruffudd poppin’ out to say hello!” the caption read. Ioan and Bianca’s announcement was soon inundated with congratulations from their friends. One person penned: “Over the moon with excitement Mr & Mrs Gruffudd.”

Another added: “Wow!! The best news! What a lucky baby, with two caring thoughtful loving parents. Made my day!!!’ another wrote.

The happy news comes less than two months after Ioann and Bianca got married. The couple shared the news on social media by posting a grainy video of the them tying the knot.They jointly captioned their posts: ‘Mr & Mrs Gruffudd. Marriage now, wedding later.’

Actor Iaonn was seen wiping away tears in the romantic video that showed the pair saying their vows on a balcony looking out to sea. While bride Alice looked stunning in a plunging ivory gown and holding a bouquet of elegant pink roses.

In another clip Ioann and Australian actress Bianca were seen toasting their vows with champagne and playing with their dog, who was a guest of honour at their nuptials.

The marriage came in the wake of Welsh actor Ioann’s bitter divorce from ex wife Alice Evans, with whom he shares two daughters.

Alice spoke candidly about the split, telling followers she was n ‘excruciating pain’ as she opened up about the break-up in agonising detail. The mum said in at the time of Ioann leaving in 2021 she was desperately fighting to save the relationship but said she ‘can’t see’ Ioan coming back.

The pair shared a joint statement admitting they were going through a ‘difficult time’ as their 13 year marriage crumbled. In a follow up post, Alice took to Instagram to share a photo of a broken heart and another image of a heart on a blackboard with ‘Game over’ written across it.

The couple released a joint statement saying it was a difficult time but they remain ‘committed’ to their daughters Ella and Elsie. “As you can imagine, this is an incredibly difficult time for our family and we remain committed to our children. Thank you for respecting our privacy,” they shared.

The couple met on the set of 102 Dalmations in 2000 – when Alice was in a relationship with Pablo Picasso’s grandson Oliver. Alice and Ioan then announced their engagement six months later and tied the knot in Mexico in 2007.

They welcomed two daughters were both conceived through IVF after Alice was found to have a low antral follicle count at the age of 38. Speaking after the birth of her firstborn Ella, Alice said: “It was as close to being in heaven as I’d ever get.”

Ioann and Bianca went public with their relationship in 2021 after working together on the set of a new TV series. It was another two years before Ioann’s divorce from Alice was finalised.

During that time he went through a bitter court hearing with Alice, where he sought a restraining order against her. The actor and his new partner Bianca claimed to have endured a ‘smear campaign’ of hateful text messages, emails and social media posts from her.

Ioann also fought Alice’s request for more money for spousal support, claiming he had paid $400,000 more than he needed to. In court papers he called Alice’s claims of poverty were ‘exaggerated’ and said it’s a ‘false narrative’ that she and the children have been left destitute.

In February this year, Alice claimed she’d been evicted from her home in Los Angeles after being ‘unable to pay her rent’. The actress said her and her daughters had been forced to leave and had ‘no way of renting even the cheapest room in the city.’

With occasionwear season officially here, we’ve found the perfect stylish and subtle midaxi dress that will take you through the summer from Marks & Spencer

Marks & Spencer is back taking online orders after the cyber attack, and as always, their current spring/summer collection is filled with stylish and elevated pieces that will really up your fashion game. One dress in particular that caught our eye was the Pure Cotton Bubble Hem Midaxi Dress.

With summer basically here, plus the races and weddings looming, finding the perfect dress you can wear to these different occasions is no mean feat, but we think this midaxi is the versatile summer dress to get your hands one. And at £49.50, this dress definitely isn’t breaking the bank.

Combining two trends in one, this black dress features a stylish bubble hem detail, as well as a flattering drop waist. Despite featuring more micro-trendy elements, the sleek black colour and classic silhouette mean this dress will last in your wardrobe for years to come.

To style this midaxi, we suggest keeping it simple with a pair of gold or silver mules (depending on which you prefer), and a matching clutch or grab bag, and minimalist jewellery. Additionally, if you’re more of a maximalist, you could team leopard or zebra print accessories to make the look pop.

We’re not the only ones who are loving this versatile dress, shoppers are already leaving their reviews, praising the piece for its high quality and flattering fit. One shopper wrote: “Couldn’t resist this dress despite having to try on several sizes before finding best fit (it’s on the small side). The design quality becomes apparent once on with a drop waist, great if you are tall and long in the body, and the bubble hem. It’s also nicely lined and the cut out back still enables you to wear a bra. Please continue to provide such design quality please M&S.”

While a second shared how the dress got them heaps of compliments when they wore it. They added: “So many compliments wearing this dress. The dress is beautiful, I felt really nice in it, and lots and lots of women asked me where it was from.”

As briefly mentioned above, a few people criticised the sizing of the dress, claiming it runs rather small, so we suggest sizing up from your usual size, especially if you are in between.
