The Beauty Radar: September
THE AFFORDABLE HAIR LINE:
Zara Haircare
Having previously helped create the brand’s debut styling products, hair whizz Guido Palau is back working with Zara, expanding the range into haircare. Spanning gentle shampoos to hydrating conditioners and curl-enhancing masks, everything from the new drop is £11.99 or under. We strongly recommend checking it out while you’re updating your autumn wardrobe. Two birds, one stone.

THE FIRST-CLASS FACIAL MENU:
Asaya at The Chancery Rosewood
Hotly anticipated hotel The Chancery Rosewood opened its doors this month, as did its new subterranean spa Asaya, which houses five treatment rooms. Serving as the space’s exclusive skincare partner, luxury French-Japanese label EviDenS de Beaute is the cornerstone of the treatment menu. We’re talking multi-masking, lifting massage and skin-plumping ingredients – all designed to restore bounce and glow. If you’re not yet familiar with the brand, wait until you try the Special Mask. It’ll change your life.

THE FRAGRANCE DROP:
Homework Elemental Collection
Created by graphic designer-turned-brand founder Stephanie Hannington-Suen, Homework is rooted in ancient rituals. Tapping into the rising trend of functional fragrances, scents designed to influence your mood, the brand has just released its new collection inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine’s five key elements: earth, fire, metal, water and wood. Make your choice based on how you want to feel, but as we head into autumn, ‘Earth’ – a grounding mix of rose, vetiver and cedarwood – is what we’re wearing on repeat.

THE MAKE-UP COLLAB:
L’Oréal Paris x Mugler
Keep your eye out for this limited-edition L’Oréal Paris collection, paying homage to visionary Thierry Mugler’s impressive back catalogue. Harking back to iconic looks from the late 90s, the six-piece edit combines nostalgia with contemporary, high-performance textures. From buzzy cushion compacts to glow-boosting highlighter sticks, everything is priced under £21 and – in a first for the global high-street brand – available exclusively on TikTok Shop. Thinking ahead to party season? The Spectrum eyeshadow palette in ‘Midnight’ has a bold, after-hours appeal.

THE BODYCARE LAUNCH:
Wallow
From British lifestyle brand Piglet In Bed comes our current favourite bodycare label Wallow. Echoing the brand’s thoughtful, slow-living ethos, every single product within the line-up earns its place. There are two signature scents to choose from: ‘Untamed Moss’, restorative and earthy, ideal for this time of year, and ‘Eternal Sun’, no less soothing but with a creamier, more uplifting feel. From silky oils to buttery-soft hand creams, think of each product as an invitation to wind-down.

THE NAIL HOTSPOT:
Bio Sculpture x Selfridges
If you’re based near the capital, the latest addition to the Selfridges Beauty Hall is not to be missed. As you’d expect, nail care innovator Bio Sculpture’s first-ever standalone salon is categorically chic, leaning into a neo‐Art Deco aesthetic. Whether you’re wanting to switch up your go-to shade for the new season or strengthen the quality of your natural nails, you won’t be disappointed.
