  7. Dyson HushJet Mini Cool fan review: I’ve never tested a handheld fan this powerful – or this loud

    Dyson HushJet Mini Cool fan review: I’ve never tested a handheld fan this powerful – or this loud

    The first portable fan from Dyson is stylish, easy to use and powerful. Did someone mention a 55mph top speed? Perhaps, but it’s so noisy you may not have heard them • The best handheld fans Two things will strike you when you pick up the Dyson HushJet Mini Cool fan for the first time. The first is that flesh-pink (stone/blush) is a bold colour choice for a product that already looks like it’s escaped from a certain NSFW section of the Filter . However, once you’ve retrieved your mind from the gutter, you’ll notice that the different form of pleasure the HushJet Mini offers – impressively powerful wind speeds to keep you cool in heatwaves – comes at a price. This thing is loud with a capital L, and becomes even more so as you progress through its five settings. More “jet” than “hush”. Continue reading...

    Jess Cartner-Morley on fashion: slouchy jeans and a short jacket is the new (and more chill) power suit

    Update the classic outfit when you want to look slick and office-appropriate … in a low-key, faux-effortless kind of way Jeans and a nice top is a tried-and-tested formula when it comes to dressing for an evening out. It is the little black dress of real life. A local dinner, an outing to the theatre or cinema, a birthday gathering in the pub: these do not require a cocktail dress. Still, you want to look nice. So you wear jeans and a nice top. If jeans and a nice top is the real life LBD, then jeans and a jacket is the normcore power suit. It is the no-nonsense, I’ve-got-this formula you need for daytime. It is an outfit that comes together in seconds and keeps on looking good and feeling comfortable for hours. It is grown up but not stiff, alpha but not snooty. It is – and this is important in our capricious climate, and when your commute can take you straight from overheated train carriage to chiller-cabinet level air conditioning – pitched neither too warm nor too cold, and offers flexibility. (You are wearing something under the jacket, you see. We will get to that.) Continue reading...

  9. The best epilators in the UK for fuss-free hair removal at home, tested

    The best epilators in the UK for fuss-free hair removal at home, tested

    Bored of shaving? Enjoy lasting smoothness with our expert’s pick of the best epilators for leg, underarm and face grooming • The beauty treatments you can do at home – and the ones you shouldn’t With summer in full swing and mini dresses back in style , if you want smooth legs and underarms without the mess of waxing – or the scrapes and nicks of shaving – an epilator may be a smart investment. In simplest terms, an epilator is an electronic device that uses rotating discs to grip and pull out hairs from the root. This gives longer-lasting results than shaving or depilatory creams – up to four weeks, depending on how fast your body hair grows. Epilators are also better at catching shorter hairs than waxing. Best of all, once you’ve bought your epilator, you’re all set – there’s no need to stock up on razor blades or wax strips, and no last-minute emergency salon appointments. Best epilator overall: Philips 8000 Best compact epilator: Philips 4000 Continue reading...
