Today in beauty trends we’re not sure about: urine skin therapy. Yes, we are talking about wee. On your face. Literally.
Urine skin therapy involves collecting your own urine and literally putting that all over your face and body. This is not a joke. Apparently the first wee of the day is the best as it contains your ‘peak nutrients and antibodies.’ We're still extremely freaked out by this whole concept, though.
Urine skin therapy can help with acne, eczema, rashes and dry skin – so basically any kind of skin woe, whack some wee on it. It’s said to boost the elasticity and suppleness of our skin. Healthy skin typically contains 28 micrograms of urea per square centimeter, whereas dehydrated, dry skin has 50% less, and for all of you guys with eczema, 80% less.

The Best Products From Glossier UK 2022

Boy Brow, £14
For anyone spending lots of time using multiple products on their eyebrows, this may just change your life (or at least your morning routine). Boy Brow fills in sparse spaces, thickens thin brows and holds them in place like a gel would. It is, in essence, the ultimate multi-tasker.

Priming Moisturizer Balance, £23
As if in answer to our lockdown skin fatigue, Glossier has recently launched a new product that it's calling Priming Moisturizer Balance. Designed primarily for oily and combination skin, it promises to moisturise, control shine and refine the look of pores in one easy step.

Glossier Pro-Retinol Nightly Renewing Complex, £30
Meet Glossier's new skincare launch, a nightly retinoid formulated with 0.5% pro-retinol in the form of Retinyl Sunflowerate. That's a mix of pure retinol and sunflower seed fatty acids to you and me. The nourishing properties of the sunflower seed fatty acids work to counterbalance the less desirable effects often associated with using retinol products, we're talking dryness, itching and occasionally peeling. What's not to love about a new Glossier launch? At £30 this is a retinol product worth looking into - retinol buys are usually quite pricey and we rate £30 for a 35ml bottle of this one as reasonable.

Cloud Paint, £15
Available in six different shades, once you try Cloud Paint you may find it difficult to go back to any other blusher. It's a silky gel-cream formula that's easy to dab onto your cheeks, although you can also use it on lips or even eyes if you so wish. This tends to be one of the more hyped products from Glossier but let me tell you – the hype is fully justified.

Milky Oil Cleanser, £10
The Milky Oil Cleanser follows on from the cult success of the brand's Milky Jelly Cleanser - and despite being the new(er) kid on the block, its smooth and softening formula has had nothing but rave reviews. It's like a mix between micellar water and a face oil but isn't greasy and leaves skin feeling fresh and clean. It also removes even the most stubborn of mascaras in an instant.

Balm Dotcom, £10
If you only buy one product, make it this. The crème de la crème of balms, this hydrating skin salve does almost everything. Slick over eyelids or on lips for a dewy, natural look and apply to any patches of dry skin for instant hydration. It's a wonder, and available in seven different flavours.

Crème de Glossier, £29
This is just as good as the packaging might suggest. It's luxurious, creamy and dreamy – basically everything you want in a night-time moisturiser. Plus, you only need the smallest amount, so while this is one of Glossier's more expensive products (around £30) it will last a really long time.

Generation G, £14
Generation G adapts to the colour of your lips, meaning each shade looks different on everyone. The texture is more like a balm than a traditional lipstick, too, so you can wear it all day without worrying about dry lips or a too-matte finish.

Super Bounce, £24
If you have dry skin by nature, or if you feel like your skin is just in desperate need of a moisture injection, this is for you. It's a hyaluronic acid combined with vitamin b5 making it a lightweight, non-sticky serum that leaves skin feeling softer almost immediately. Ideal during or after flights and a genuine dream to slather on skin on mornings after the nights before. It also provides the perfect base for make-up.

Lip Gloss, £11
Just when you thought lip gloss couldn't shake off its early noughties image, along comes Glossier's version to prove us all wrong. Available in three shades – clear, holographic and red – this really is a game-changer in every sense of the phrase. Wear on its own for low-key days or layer over lipstick to up the ante.

Lidstar, £15
Not one to do things by halves, Glossier launched Lidstar at the Grammy Awards in 2018 on the eyelids of Beyoncé, no less. There are now six shades on offer, all of which lend a shimmery, pearly, fairly irresistible glow when applied to eyelids. In fact, it's pretty addictive stuff.

Haloscope, £18
This might just be the ultimate highlighter, given that it provides all the glow plus a hit of hydration thanks to vitamin-rich moisturisers included in the formula. There's three shades to choose from, all as delicious as the other. It's cruelty-free, too.

Glossier You, £45
Glossier's first perfume really does smell differently on everyone's skin. But if you're a fan of musky, lightly woody fragrances, you'll like this. A lot. The base notes (those woody scents) are the main attraction but the top notes that do feature are spicy and peppery, as opposed to anything floral.

Moisturising Moon Mask, £18
With almond oil, plant-based squalane, and hyaluronic acid, this is one seriously hydrating mask. But more than that, it includes liquorice root and lemon extract to help brighten skin, while honey and aloe work to soothe any redness. It's a lovely treat for your skin.
If the thought of splashing your face with urine freaks you out too much, it might be worth checking out some of the labels for your current skincare products as shock horror you’re probably already using a component of urine, ureain your daily beauty rountine.
It's already naturally present in our skin, but lots ofEucerinproducts contain urea because of it’s hydrating properties.
So, if you suffer from dry skin it might be worth washing your face with your own urine, or if that’s a bit too much for you – invest in some Eucerin products!
