So, let us point you in the direction of your next purchase with our edit of the 11 best high street buys for the month…

Found naturally in our skin, adding more ceramides to our bodycare routines can work wonders for locking in moisture and strengthening the skin’s barrier, so we spoke to the experts to find out everything you need to know – and the best products to shop.
