Each month, Fashionista editors try a *lot* of beauty products. And while not every formula we test is a winner, we’re constantly unearthing new favorites. Here, we’ve rounded up our latest hair, skin, fragrance, wellness and makeup discoveries — whether fresh-to-market drops or merely recent additions to our personal routines.
If team Fashionista had to write a “how I spent my summer vacation” essay, chances are it would include some mention of trying a whole bunch of beauty products — at least, that’s what this month’s edit of our favorite new skin, hair, makeup and wellness discoveries would suggest.
Over the past four weeks, we tested plenty of new (or simply new-to-us) formulas, unearthing a handful of standout favorites that have officially earned permanent spots in our medicine cabinets. This month’s finds include gentle skin-care formulas that actually do what they promise on their labels, transformative body scrubs and serums, hair products that revive our lived-in styles and tinted lip balms with multi-sensory appeal. Click through the gallery to see (and shop!) them all.
Aesop Parsley Seed Anti-Oxidant Serum, $75, available here: “This aloe-based antioxidant serum is the loveliest lightweight gel texture, so it absorbs beautifully into skin, making it feel quenched and soothed. I’ve also found it to be gentler than my typical high-concentration vitamin C-spiked antioxidant serums, so I don’t have to avoid it when my skin is going through a sensitized patch.” —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director
In case you missed last month’s picks, you can find them here:
Rose Ingleton MD Retexturizing Retinol Booster Serum, $70, available here: “I didn’t really expect a product whose name includes the words ‘retexturizing’ and ‘retinol‘ to actually live up to its claims of being non-irritating, but this fast-absorbing serum does: It includes soothing ingredients like glycerin, aloe and coconut oil to keep skin calm while the retinol does its line-fighting, skin-smoothing thing.” —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director
