New Products
With every season comes a wave of new hair, makeup and skin products touting near-perfect results. Lucky for you, we waded through the waters and found the best buys for your warm-weather beauty routine. Happy shopping!
Mascara
Available at Sephora come mid April is a mascara made for any type of lashes. The wand bends to fit your eye shape. How cool is that?
Eye Color
New to Sephora this month comes Tom Ford's Soleil Collection, which is basically everything you need to glow like a goddess. From the bronzers, highlighters and skin care, our favorite is the eye color duo—the metallic cream consistency glides on like magic, while the powder adds a pop of shimmer.
Foundation Cushion
If you haven't gotten on the cushion train by now, you really need to. With foundations and BB creams in cushion form from brands like L'Oréal, Laneige and now Lancôme, you have choices. But the latest formula from this Korean brand helps with brightening any dark areas and evens out skin tone.
Yellow Polish
Two new nail colors from this tried-and-true brand? Yes, please! This one in particular is sunny without being too bright.
Foam Spray
From the makers of your favorite sea-salt spray comes a mousse-salt-spray hybrid that gives you that tousled effect without the gritty texture of most salt sprays. Who's ready to make some waves?
Lip Stain
We tried every color from this lip collection and can attest that while it may look overly pigmented in the tube, the liquid formula dries into a nice, lasting tint.
Highlighter
Because you can look like an Instagram filter in real life.
Cream Blush
This editor's latest obsession, this blush blends seamlessly into your makeup while giving you a pretty, feminine flush.
Shampoo
This latest line of products is custom-tailored for your hair...with you doing the customizing. Color-processed hair? Curly locks? Whatever the case, add two serums of your choosing to one of the four shampoos that best fit your tress type. So, what's your hair-restoring cocktail?
Lip Oil
You know those Lancôme Juicy tubes you love? This is the latest, less sticky, more moisturizing version! Plus, it looks like a mini lava lamp. So fun!
Finishing Creme
From the celeb hair genius known as Jen Atkin comes a lightweight lotion for your tresses (read: shiny locks on par with the Kardashians).
Ouai Finishing Creme, $24
Lipstick
Found: The perfect pink shade. With a creamy, soft texture, the color glides on easy, whether you're touching up after a weekend picnic or in the back of a speeding taxi.
Powder Foundation
Not too many powder foundations offer that creamy consistency of their liquid counterparts, but this vegan-friendly option works wonders.
Coral Polish
There's no better time to wear a shimmery coral than spring. Wedding season, anyone?
Detangling Spray
Great for after the beach when your hair is a knotted mess or on a super-hot day when your tresses are feeling dry and parched. Don't worry—it won't weigh down your hair either.
Lip Scrub
You know how we love our multi-purpose products! When your lips are chapped and dehydrated, look no further than this innovation, which features a sugar scrub to gently scrape off dead skin. Use a napkin to wipe away the excess, then moisten the lips with the hydrating balm above the scrub.
Pink Polish
From the fitness genius who trained top models like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Miranda Kerr, a sweet nail collection, courtesy of Mary Helen Bowers of Ballet Beautiful.
Formula X #ColorCurators: Ballet Beautiful Edition - Nail Polish Collection, $12.50
Shimmering Face Oil
Launching this month, this face oil creates the perfect base to get a red-carpet-worthy or warm-weather glow. Did this writer feel like a celeb upon trial? Definitely!
Eye & Cheek Palette
Besides the fact that each hue comes in limited edition, the pretty packaging with embossed magnolia flowers just screams spring.
Anti-Aging Serum
When the brand says intensive, it means it. The formula is thick in relation to most serums but packs a punch when it comes to vitamin C (10 percent!). It works hard for the money!
Lip Tint
Out last month, two spring-appropriate hues from e.l.f. to add to your beauty arsenal.
Gray Polish
Just in time for the Alice in Wonderland movie prequel, a nail collection of fantastical colors.
Alice Through the Looking Glass Nail Lacquer Collection What Time Isn't It?, $14.95
Lip Balm
Just launched in the States on Net-A-Porter, this Australian brand offers a three-fer: a lip conditioner, sheen and smoother in one summer-perfect product.
