Lune Martens' skincare routine
“My morning routine usually involves cleansing and hydrating. I’m currently loving the Byoma Balancing Face Mist, £11.99 and using The Juice, £25 from my own skincare line Monday Muse, it’s a 3-in-1 serum that doesn’t just hydrate, but also strengthens and gently clarifies the skin, which is great for my sensitive, acne-prone skin followed by the Youth to the People Adaptogen Cream, £15. To finish it off I use an SPF, my favourite is La Roche Posay Anthelios SPF 50, £19.
“At night, if I am wearing makeup, I often like to double cleanse with either Bioderma Micellar Water, £5.30 or the Cleansing Concentrate from Deviant Skincare, £46, followed by Monday Muse Soft Milky Gel Cleanser, £28. It’s important to find balance in your routine, give the products some time to work and also stick with them; without consistency your products won’t be effective.”
Total: £150.29

Lune’s hair care routine
“I never used to take care of my hair. It’s naturally quite fine and wouldn’t grow past my shoulder for years. During the pandemic I stopped dyeing it and started looking into scalp care.
"Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp, so I love to use scalp treatments. As a result, not only is my hair now shinier and healthier but it is also longer than ever.
“My favourite products of all time are the Rahua Hydration Shampoo, £32 and Conditioner, £34. I tend to wash my hair every 3-4 days and try to be very delicate as it's most fragile when it's wet. I try not to brush it until it's almost dry.
“I also try to limit heat on my hair, most days I let it air dry. But if I style it, I like to use the Mermade Hair Blow Dry Brush, £69.”
Total: £135

Lune’s makeup routine
“I’ve dealt with a lot of cystic acne throughout my life, so I always tried to keep my makeup minimal to avoid more congestion. I prefer to use makeup to accentuate what I already have instead of trying to cover up the skin too much.
“I love Rose Inc products, including the Tinted Serum, £39 and Tinted Brow Gel, £19.50. On the days that I want to do the bare minimum, I use the Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Tiger Grass Colour Correcting Treatment, £16.50 which helps neutralise any redness and add a few drops of the By Terry Liquid Bronzer, £19 to look put together with very little effort.
“If I go out for a special occasion I like to focus on my eyes. I love anything shimmery like the Bobbi Brown Moonstone Eyeshadow, £28.”
Total: £122
Lune’s body care routine
“I’m a bath girl during the winter but prefer showers during the summer. Any body or bath products from Mirror Water are amazing and I also really like the Shower Oil, £19.50 from L’Occitane. On occasion I’ll go for a lymphatic drainage treatment, too.”
Total: £19.50
Lune Martens’ total monthly beauty spend: £426.79
