“I’m A Beauty Writer & These Are The Products I’m Actually Excited To Use”

There’s something about this final quarter of the year that makes me particularly excited about beauty. New launches start coming in thick and fast, brands pull out all the stops ahead of Christmas and suddenly my wish list is considerably longer than it was a few months ago. From skincare designed to give you that coveted glass-skin glow to hair products promising bigger, bouncier blow-dries, there’s plenty to get excited about. So, after testing, trying and putting plenty of new products through their paces, I’ve narrowed it down to the five launches I’m loving most right now…

As a beauty writer, I’m lucky enough to be attending press launches every week and testing new products on the daily, so I’m constantly surrounded by the latest launches the beauty world has to offer. And while I love discovering something new, it takes a lot for a product to genuinely earn a place in my own beauty collection.

Bio Collagen Wrapping Mask 

Skin Republic, £4.60

If glass skin is the goal, this new Wrapping Mask deserves a place in your evening routine. The satisfying peel-off mask is infused with bio-collagen to help improve the skin’s elasticity while leaving it smoother, plumper and seriously hydrated. Use it as a quick 15-minute treatment when you’re short on time, or apply before bed and leave it on overnight for seriously glass-like skin when you wake up. The best part? Peeling it off is every bit as satisfying as you’d hope.

Matcha Mist Elixir Milky Spray

By Terry, £29

Think of this as a glass of water for your skin, but in mist form. The new Matcha Mist Elixir is a milky, ultra-fine spray that delivers up to 24 hours of intense hydration. Its matcha complex is paired with vitamins B3 and B5 to hydrate and refresh your skin, while the lightweight milky texture feels instantly comforting and soothing as soon as you spray. Use this as the final step of your skincare routine to lock products in, or pick up the cute mini-size bottle for the perfect on-the-go spritz.

Cool Girl Plumping & Volumising Cream 

Hair By Sam McKnight, £29

If your dream hair involves serious body and a blow-dry that looks like you’ve just stepped out of the salon, meet your new secret weapon. This latest launch from Sam McKnight instantly plumps each strand, giving you incredible bounce and movement. Work it through damp hair before styling for mega volume that feels touchable rather than stiff. Consider it the backstage trick for taking your blow-dry from flat to full-bodied.

Le Rouge Satin Silk Lipstick 

Givenchy, £41

Givenchy has updated its classic lipstick with Le Rouge Satin Silk. First of all, the packaging is super chic and makes the perfect handbag accessory. But then the formula is pretty special too. It’s radiant, silky and glides onto lips with a smooth, super-comfortable finish. This lipstick combines hydration with long-lasting colour and delivers the polished look of a satin lip without compromising on comfort. My shade of choice is Beige Crush – it’s a really wearable neutral that teams perfectly with all of my brown-toned liners.

Intense Body Spray – Cheirosa ’59

Sol De Janeiro, £34

If you already have a Sol De Janeiro body mist permanently living in your handbag, prepare to become even more obsessed. The new Intense Body Spray collection takes the brand’s signature scents and turns up the intensity, with a higher fragrance concentration that delivers a bolder, richer scent lasting up to 10 hours. My favourite is Cheirosa 59, with notes of white orchid, creamy sandalwood and amber accord. It’s warm, addictive and the perfect autumn/winter scent.
