The Best New Beauty Launches This Month
All products on this page have been selected by our editorial team, however we may make commission on some products.
Voyeur Eyeshadow Stick, £33 | Hourglass
We love an eyeshadow stick and these new ones from Hourglass are chunky, full of pigment and easy to use. Simply scribble them all over your lids and blend out with your fingers or a brush for a quick smokey eye. The soft, metallic tones set them apart – each one is so flattering, while the texture doesn’t move or crease throughout the day. ‘Solstice’ is ideal for day-to-day wear, while ‘Galaxy’ offers a chic alternative to black for your next night out.

Diamond Mascara, £11.99 | Physicians Formula
This mascara has definitely caught our eye. The curved brush really hugs the lash line, while the jet-black formula provides long-lasting definition. A single swipe is all you need for complete coverage – you don’t need to keep layering up. It stays wet for a while, allowing you to ramp up the volume without any clumps – but work quickly because once it sets, it won’t move.

Lip Glowy Balm, £17.50 | Laneige
If you like Laneige’s Lip Sleeping Mask, you’ll love its new Glowy Balms. Full of hydrating ingredients – like shea and murumuru butters – they instantly alleviate dryness while imparting lips with a soft hint of colour. The glossy, plumping effect keeps lips looking healthy and fresh, too. Wear solo or on top of other lip colours.

Tinted Moisturiser Bronzer, £27 | Laura Mercier
Laura Mercier is expanding its successful range of tinted moisturisers with a dedicated bronzing formula. Ideal for summer, this one has a pearly, sheer tint to it that gives your complexion believable warmth. Think of it like an instant tan but without the tell-tale scent or lingering colour. A small amount delivers instant structure and definition, as well as a vacation-like glow you’ll love – apply it with a brush or your hands.

Intelligent Hair Towel, £26 | Act+Acre
Made from a soft waffle knit, this clever towel cuts drying time by 50%, smooths frizz and minimises breakage. Typically, cotton can be quite abrasive on wet hair, whereas this prevents snags and snapping as you dry. Use it to pat hair dry or wrap it around your head, and let it absorb the excess water while you go about your routine.

La Brume Cheveux, £32 | Les Filles En Rouje
This new hair mist does a bit of everything – it adds a beachy texture, boosts volume at the root and gives a little extra shine to your strands. The scent is amazing too, while ingredients like sea salt and seaweed extract provide both moisture and a bit of grit and texture to your hair. We recommend spritzing this through your strands then creating a neat bun – when you unravel it, you’ll find hair has a nice, crimped effect with a cool-girl feel.

Hair Refresher Dry Cleansing Mist Dry Shampoo, £23.75 | Davines
More expensive than other dry shampoos, this is worth every penny. Full of rice flour, it’s lighter than some iterations on the market but still absorbs grease and oil at speed. It also never leaves behind any of that tell-tale residue. Plus, you don’t need a lot – a light misting is enough to boost volume, prolong your current hairstyle and give strands a bit more texture. Spray it directly into the roots and ends of your hair, coating all the different layers evenly. Scrunch it in as you go.

Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator, £55 | Elemis
Fans of the Elemis Pro-Collagen line will be excited to see it’s expanded recently. Our favourite addition is this Glow Boost Exfoliator, which uses cellulose beads to gently buff away dead skin cells without causing irritation. Added oils keep moisture sealed in, so you’re never left feeling dry or tight afterwards. You only need to use it once or twice a week to see results – plus, the smooth surface it leaves behind is also the perfect base for make-up.

Daily Green Juice Antioxidant Super Serum, $24.99 | Honest
As the name suggests, this is like a shot of goodness for your complexion. Full of greens – including kale, green tea and apple extracts – it’s gentle and keeps skin feeling soft and nourished. Added niacinamide also counteracts redness, while hyaluronic acid boosts moisture levels. The reviews speak for themselves, but we can also guarantee plumper, firmer and brighter-looking skin with regular use.

Micro-Peeling Glow Essence, £100 | MZ Skin
This is an investment, but seeing as a little goes a very long way, you’ll definitely get your money’s worth in the long-term. Containing exfoliating acids – including mandelic, tranexamic and succinic – it breaks down surface dirt and penetrates your skin’s layers to help with issues such as redness, congestion and dark spots. You’ll notice a difference almost immediately – think better brightness and a visible glow. Added hyaluronic acid counteracts any harsh effects, making it a great all-rounder that even sensitive skin types can use.

Glow Body Oil, £29 | Tan-Luxe
Tan-Luxe’s Glow Body Oil is ideal for tan-phobes. Instead of depositing colour, it just gives limbs a glossy, illuminating sheen that helps to enhance your natural or bottled tan. Full of softening oils – like jojoba and pomegranate – it nourishes skin and gets rid of any dry scaliness, especially on areas like your shins and elbows. You can use your hands, but we advise buffing this on with a big fluffy brush for an even and seamless finish.

Coconut Body Oil, £15.90 | Mario Badescu
If you’re after an affordable body oil, try this one from Mario Badescu. It’s a spray, which makes application easy wherever you are, and it’s incredibly lightweight despite the number of nourishing oils inside. Mist it on and let the coconut, argan and ylang ylang oils sink in – they work together to absorb dryness and leave behind a veil of moisture that lasts. You’ll love the glossy sheen this delivers.

The Glow Getter Multi-Oil Hydrating Body Wash, £18 | Naturium
Naturium is expanding into bodycare and we’re loving its Multi-Oil Hydrating Wash that does a bit of everything. It uses glycerin and squalane to boost skin’s moisture levels, while simultaneously breaking down dirt and oil that’s sat on the surface. The silky texture is a huge bonus – it feels luxurious and comforting. You’ll be hard pushed to find better quality at this price point.

M01 & Ginger Eau De Toilette, £95 | Escentric Molecules
This has all the same qualities as the original 01 scent, but with extra pepperiness and warmth thanks to ginger and other aromatic spices. It’s slightly more potent, paving the way for even more compliments on what you’re wearing. A must-try for anyone looking for a fragrance that feels a bit different.

Eau De Parfum, £99 | Tory Burch
Tory Burch has launched five fragrances, with something for everyone. Fans of woody, floral scents should try Electric Sky, while Sublime Rose is full of blackcurrant and, of course, rose, for those who prefer their scents on the fresh and green side. Our favourite is Cosmic Wood – spicy and heady without being OTT, it’s intense and unisex. The chic bottles will look great on your bathroom shelf, too.

The Kabuki Brush, £19 | Otis Batterbee
We’ve said it before but we’ll say it again, everyone needs a good kabuki brush. This new one from Otis Batterbee comes with densely packed – yet soft – bristles that latch onto product to help you achieve a seamless blend every time. You can use it with any texture – liquids, powders or creams. The chunky handle makes application easy, allowing for total control and precision.

Baia The Everything Beauty Bag, $129 | Vanity Planet
We’re always looking for new ways to store our make-up, and right now we have our eye on this case. Complete with divider sections, pouches and a detachable LED mirror – which is dimmable – it also has a stretchy luggage strap you can attach to your suitcase when travelling. Extra points go to the special hinge that allows you to hold the mirror in place while you do your make-up.
