The 7 Best New Beauty Products to Try Now

Think of these copper-toned hydrogel eye patches from Augustinus Bader as your 360-approach to eye care, since they target all concerns that tend to crop up under our eyes. Used a few times a week, they’ll truly deliver on results to brighten (hello, niacinamide), hydrate, and deflate bags (using a unique type of hyaluronic acid that plumps at a deeper level), as well as soothe skin and smooth fine lines and wrinkles (down to allantoin and a fermented polysaccharide). As with all of Bader’s cult products, they also include the famous TFC8 technology to help cell renewal at the same time. It’s win-win. Alice Casely-Hayford, content director

Used consistently, NuFace’s celebrity-approved microcurrent device essentially re-trains your muscles to stay lifted. It’s truly one of the best gadgets out there for delivering real contouring results at home, especially as the Complete Facial Toning Kit comes with a dedicated eye and lip attachment to strategically target slacking skin, as well as the newest attachment, which uses a mix of red, amber and infrared LED lights to boost collagen and elastin levels, plumping niggling lines and wrinkles from the inside out. If you’re already a devoted user, this Wrinkle Reducer attachment also comes as a separate single product that easily slots onto your existing Trinity+ device for visible skin-smoothing results.

These gorgeously glossy lip balms offer all the volumizing, plumping and hydrating goodness of the peptides, ceramides and long-chain hyaluronic acid found in U Beauty’s original Lip Plasma, but with an added hit of sheer, glossy, natural-looking color. All three shades, which comprise Rose (a pale pink), Cassis (a rich plum) and Fawn (a warm beige), also feature gentle exfoliators to slough off flakes or dryness, offering much-needed relief for dry, chapped lips.

The hair-restoring benefits of the Olaplex No.4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo and No.5 Bond Conditioner are legendary. As the beloved bond-building system used by the A-list, this duo essentially turns over-styled, dehydrated strands into what feels like spun silk. Now, the same cult formulas come in one-liter versions, complete with a user-friendly pump, so you won’t have to top up your shower supply as frequently. Pair them with the brand’s pre-shampoo No.3 Hair Perfector for the ultimate smooth, shiny and frizz-free results. MH

Formulated with hydrating hyaluronic acid and beta-glucan, Tan-Luxe Express Tanning Mousse not only does the job of your daily moisturizer (expect legs that feel smooth and silky for a solid 48 hours post-application), but also builds a golden tan without any UV exposure. Perfect for adding a little last-minute luster to limbs, its texture makes the mousse super-easy to apply, too – simply buff it into skin with a mitt using circular motions and leave it to develop for two hours. Alternatively, add an extra hour for a darker, natural-looking bronze. Either way, the swift results and expert finish are impressive. Katie Jennings, beauty buyer

Displayed in many stylish spaces on Instagram, Loewe Home Scents’ candles are as loved for the ribbed terracotta earthenware pots they come in (based on a style of Greek mug) as they are for their captivating scents. ‘Geranium’ offers a citrusy floral fragrance and comes in a painted blue pot to match, while ‘Thyme’ (housed in a fittingly warm-brown pot) has a distinctly earthy herbal scent. Both iterations are designed to be used outside to add ambience to any summer garden party, and feature mosquito-repelling notes of rose and lemongrass, plus four large wicks, so you can enjoy your soirée for longer.

This Brightening CC Luminizer from By Terry makes an instant skin glow-up quick and easy to achieve. For starters, its sheer, glitter-free formula offers a hit of liquid luminosity (aka optical diffusers) to any area you want to brighten, while the flat brush tip of the handy applicator is the perfect size for sweeping under brows and round the corner of eyes – areas that are typically difficult to target using your fingers or a classic makeup brush. What’s more, the formula is spiked with a whole host of skincare ingredients, too, including white rose stem extract to protect skin from environmental aggressors. Keep it in your handbag for radiance-reviving touch-ups on the go. Abigail Gwyther, assistant buyer
