15 ~Magical~ Harry Potter Beauty Products
Harry Potter has a surprising connection to the world of beauty products. Harry’s ancestor, Fleamont Potter, actually quadrupled the family fortune by inventing and selling Sleekeazy’s Hair Potion, a treatment for unruly hair. Hermione used this product to style her hair for the Yule Ball, so you know it really works. And since Harry uses this fortune to fund his life at Hogwarts, he has Fleamont — and beauty products — to thank for his education. In honor of Harry's ancestors, let's take a look at these Harry Potter beauty products that are guaranteed to add a little magic to your morning routine.
Fans of beauty products are probably disappointed that they can’t shop in the wizarding world for items like Sleekeazy’s. Personally I could really use some magic when it comes to fixing my hair. Muggle products are hardly as enchanting as magical hair tonic, and they usually don’t include ingredients such as dragon hair and gomas barbadensis.
However, you can still find Harry Potter-inspired beauty products if you know where to look. No, you can’t shop in Diagon Alley, but there are still places where Muggles can find magical beauty supplies. And you don’t even have to change your money to Sickles and Knuts to purchase these supplies. You can channel Hermione’s Yule Ball beauty routine with some of the following Hogwarts-inspired beauty products.
The Wizard Highlight And Contour Palette
