We try Beauty: 5 products that make our beauty routine a permanent holiday in May

Product: Menoenergy 24/7 Cleanser Cleansing Gel by DADO SENS Price: €14.95 / 100 ml Promise: During menopause, estrogen levels drop, and with them collagen production. This new skincare range with vegan collagen and selected active ingredients from natural sources is designed to help promote healthy, radiant skin, while the cleansing gel gently cleanses skin stressed by hormonal changes. Effect: I have oily combination skin, and only since menopause has it become noticeably more sensitive. My usual cleansing routine no longer works. I realize I need something gentler. What I like about the 24/7 Cleanser Cleansing Gel: It doesn't dry out at all and removes makeup without leaving any residue. I use it morning and evening, and my complexion reacts very calmly to it. It gives me eternal holiday feelings because: Because it doesn't itch, produce oil, turn red, or wrinkle, I simply feel good in my skin.

Product: Fresh Care Shower "Blooming Garden" – Artist Edition by Nivea. Price: About 3 euros. Promise: This Nivea shower gel is supposed to leave your skin feeling instantly smooth and fresh after use, without over-drying it, and smell wonderfully floral of peonies and magnolias. Effect: This promise is definitely fulfilled. The light texture spreads easily over the body, lathers pleasantly, and exudes a distinctive, fresh scent in your bathroom. Your skin feels pleasant after showering and not as dry as with conventional shower gels. The vitamins C and E enriched in the shower gel definitely make an impact here. It gives me eternal holiday vibes because, for me, it's not just the effect that counts, but also the look. Thanks to artist Ayumi Takahashi, the shower gel from the Artist range has a fantastic look that's both super creative and appealing. A real eye-catcher!

Product: Sun Beauty Sensitive Skin Mineral Face Cream SPF50 by Lancaster Price: approx. €42 Promise: Sun Beauty Sensitive Mineral Face Cream SPF50 by Lancaster was specially developed for sensitive skin. With its Full-Light™ technology, it provides comprehensive protection against UVA/UVB rays, visible light, and infrared. The 100 percent mineral filter is designed to prevent premature skin aging, yet its light texture absorbs quickly. Effect: The light texture really does absorb super quickly and leaves skin feeling soft and neither shiny nor overly dry – perfect for daily use. The sunscreen also works perfectly under makeup because nothing rolls off. This makes me feel relaxed and protected at my next brunch in the sun. It gives me eternal holiday feelings because: I've only wanted to use mineral sunscreen for the past two years, but most of them are too heavy for my sensitive skin. That's different with Sun Beauty Sensitive Skin Mineral Face Cream! It's not at all heavy, doesn't roll off, doesn't leave a greasy residue, and doesn't shine unpleasantly in the sunlight. A real winner and a reason to get a little party going in the bathroom every morning.

Product: "The Dewy Day" Cushion Foundation by Yepoda. Price: approx. €35. Promise: An even complexion with a light, dewy glow—just like K-Beauty. This means your own skin, just a little better with imperfections covered up. To ensure this really happens, 21 different skin tones are available for you to try on. Well, if there isn't a perfect shade there! Effect: Makeup and skincare in one! Niacinamide and squalane give the skin an even look and also gently nourish the skin barrier. The best part? The integrated SPF 30 protects against UV rays without any extra steps. The pleasant, light texture and medium coverage make the result appear completely natural, so there's no mask effect. It gives me eternal holiday feelings because: My even complexion is beautiful for celebrating! With this little skin-good mood boost, even normal weekdays are easy to manage.

Product: Glaze Drops from the Gloss Absolu range by Kérastase. Price: approx. 52 euros. Promise: Four days of anti-frizz, four days of ultra-glossy effect, four days of smooth hair – the Glaze Drops promise a lot. Effect: The applicator allows for the perfect dosage of the Glaze Drops. The oil doesn't weigh down the hair, leaving a smooth finish and less frizz. And WOW: The incredibly beautiful shine is particularly noteworthy – I've rarely been complimented on my shiny hair so often. It gives me eternal holiday feelings because: the drops not only work, they also smell wonderful. Wild rose extract adds that certain something and creates a perfect wellness moment in the morning for me and my hair.
