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 kicked off the new year much in the same way we ended the previous one: trying not to get the winter blahs, hoping for an (actual) end to the pandemic and, of course, testing out a whole bunch of new beauty and wellness products. (What, you think we’re just going to make it through winter in New York City without loading up on intensive moisturizers, mood-boosting makeup and pretty new scents?)
This month’s top beauty picks include a low-waste vitamin C serum that’s as potent as it is mindfully packaged, a lightweight body butter that’s ideal for winter, the perfect pink lip gloss (which happens to smell like coconuts) and a slew of fragrances and candles we can’t get enough of.
Click through the gallery below to see (and shop) them all.
Common Heir 10% Vitamin C Serum, $88, available here: “I’m a vitamin C serum devotee because I’ve seen the powers the ingredient has to fade dark spots and scarring, protect skin and brighten my overall complexion. This one is a new favorite because of its silky texture, potent 10% vitamin C concentration, gentle formulation and biodegradable ampoules to preserve product freshness. I also love that it comes in recyclable paper packaging, making it the lowest-waste serum I’ve ever used.” —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director
In case you missed last month’s picks, you can find them here:
Farmacy 10% Niacinamide Night Mask, $42, available here: “This creamy, almost balm-like mask is packed with a 10% concentration of niacinamide, an ingredient lauded for its soothing, pore-refining, tone-brightening properties. The treatment also includes panthenol and ‘upcycled’ blueberry seed oil (meaning it’s a byproduct from the creation of other blueberry-based products) to protect and replenish skin. After just one use, I woke up with calmer, more supple-looking skin.” —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director
