Another month, another slew of beauty products landing on the beauty desk. If you find keeping up with what’s hot (and what’s not) in the world of beauty as impossible as trying to keep up with whether Kendall Jenner and Joe Alwyn are a thing or not, then don’t worry, I’ve got you covered. From the worlds of makeup, skincare, haircare and beyond, I’ve rigorously put the best new products through their paces to see what really deserves pride of place on a Beauty Editor’s vanity. Hey, it’s a hard job, but someone has to do it. From luxurious skincare to hair heroes and the ultimate bronzing boost, these are the best new beauty products to stock up on this month. You’re welcome.

Shine bright like a diamond with Chanel’s stunning new oversized highlighter. This limited-edition illuminating powder, housed in an oh-so-chic compact, adds an instant touch of glamour and a gorgeous, radiant glow perfect for a festive finish. The pearl-infused formula glides smoothly onto the skin, leaving a trail of shimmer in its wake.
valmont
I am always on the hunt for a product that promises to tighten, tone and smooth my neck, so when Valmont’s new V-Lift Neck Cream landed on my desk, I practically slathered the whole pot on straight away. After years of scientific development, it targets cells for that smoother, lifted look, reducing lines and crepey texture with a luxurious, melting formula. The results? A visibly firmer, 90% smoother neck and décolleté—I’m officially hooked.

This luxurious lip booster, infused with Colombian chilli and cinnamon extracts, visibly plumps your pout while providing long-lasting hydration. The unique formula, enriched with jojoba oil, ensures smooth, kissable lips and a fuller smile in a flash. Plus, the limited edition subtle golden shimmer is perfect for the party season. Move over, filler.

Plus, the ceramic coating prevents frizz and keeps your hair shiny and healthy. My new hair hero.
Kosas
This isn’t just a blush; it’s a skin-loving treat. The formula is packed with squalane, hyaluronic acid and kaolin to hydrate, balance and boost radiance, while the baked powder formula blends effortlessly to impart a subtle sheen and flush of blush that looks super natural. It’s also easily buildable, taking you from day to night with just a sweep.

snow fox
This sheet mask is a game-changer for stressed skin, whether you’ve spent too much time in the sun, are in dire need of looking less tired and puffy (we feel you) or you’re looking a little rouge post microneedling session. The cooling sensation feels so refreshing, instantly calmed any redness and irritation, and skin feels super hydrated and soothed thanks to the peppermint water and aloe. I also love that it’s made from biodegradable organic cotton, ticking the gentle on the skin and eco-friendly boxes. Perfect for a quick skin rescue when I need it most.
Dior
huda beauty
Huda Kattan has done it again. She’s gone and created the go-to palette for the season, packed with the perfect blend of cool-toned shades from shimmery silvers to matte burgundies and icy metallics. The buttery-soft formula glides on effortlessly, and the pigmentation is intense. Whether you’re going for a subtle, everyday look or a dramatic night-out glam, this palette has you covered. It also happens to be the brand’s last-ever big palette *sobs*, so be sure to get your hands on one while you can.
pHFormula
This lightweight, invisible fluid is a game-changer in sun protection. It offers triple protection against UVA, UVB and infrared rays, while also defending against environmental stressors. Not to mention its innovative formula helps to reduce redness and promote DNA repair, and it boasts a hint of colour for the perfect “no makeup makeup” look. Not all heroes wear capes.
