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. 

Team Fashionista spent the better part of August finding heat wave-proof makeup: tinted lip color that delivers tons of hydration, a non-glittery highlighter that looks natural, a sunscreen-spiked BB cream and a sheer, buildable skin tint that’s amazingly lightweight. Turns out, we actually are down to have fun with our beauty looks even when it’s 90-plus degrees and absurdly humid — we just need the right formulas at our disposal.

But we also dabbled in new highly effective skin-care innovations, like a gentle retinol, a gadget that helps correct and prevent the formation of “tech neck” wrinkles and reusable undereye masks that are as cute as they are useful. 

See all of our favorite new beauty and wellness discoveries in the gallery ahead.

Sunnies Face Lip Treat in Poppy, $16, available here: “This sheer tinted balm is ultra-moisturizing, thanks to shea butter and medowfoam seed oil, and deposits the perfect wash of poppy red pigment, which can be layered for more intensity. It’s been a late summer go-to for me.” —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director

In case you missed last month’s picks, you can find them here:

Being Frenshe Reset Candle – Cashmere Vanilla, $14, available here: “My basic trait (like a toxic trait, except harmless) is that I’ve never met a vanilla scented candle I didn’t love. That said, this one — from Ashley Tisdale’s new brand — is exceptional. Soft, slightly powdery and not too sweet, it’s like a cozy, comforting hug in olfactory form. That it’s also accessibly priced, pet safe and available at Target make it even more of a winner.” —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director
