12 new beauty products our editors are loving this month

"I hope the 'don’t judge a book by its cover' rule isn’t true for scent, because I’d be lying if I didn’t admit the candy-striped bow of this new Jo Malone drop isn’t what drew me in. But trust me, the aroma inside is just as charming. I’m a sweet scent fan, but frankly, it can be tough to find a fragrance that balances sweetness with any level of sophistication. By balancing the cheerful raspberry notes with heady white musk, the Jo Malone London Raspberry Ripple Cologne manages to smell as fruity, fresh and fun as I personally enjoy without reading as juvenile to passersby." — Delaney Loane, BEAUTYcrew’s Editor

Top: Redcurrant

"I’m not a lipstick lover, like at all, so when a new lip gloss or lip oil lands on my desk it immediately has my full attention. However, even I’ll admit I wasn’t expecting to love the latest lip product from Rare Beauty as much as I do. Rare Beauty’s Positive Light Luminising Lip Gloss is never sticky, always plumping, and packed full of light-reflecting shimmer, which creates the prettiest glossy lip. If you’re a fan of cooler-toned pinky-nude lip products like me, then I suggest giving the shade 'Glimmer' a go — you won’t regret it." — Briar Clark, BEAUTYcrew’s Beauty Editor

Key features:

Available in six shades
Shimmer finish
Non-sticky texture
Glass-like shine
Moisturises and plumps
Subtle peach scent

"I’m usually not one for a hair mask. I have a bob, and my hair sits on the finer side, it gets greasy pretty quickly, and I love a bit of volume. Basically, I typically avoid any sort of treatment or mask, because they usually leave my hair looking greasy and heavy. So I’ll admit I was a little sceptical when the Moroccanoil High Shine Gloss Mask landed on my desk. However, I gave it a go, and my goodness, I’m officially on the bandwagon! It was easy to apply to towel-dried hair, and could be rinsed out after five to seven minutes — no waiting around for it to marinate is always a bonus. After blow drying my hair, it didn’t feel heavy or weighed down by the gloss, and my hair looked shiny, healthy and felt incredibly soft. Inspired by professional gloss treatments, I can definitely say that my hair felt like I’d just stepped out of the salon!" — Maddy Wilson, BEAUTYcrew’s Shopping Content Producer

Rinse off hair gloss treatment
Comb through clean, towel-dried hair

from $39.95 at Ciroa

"It might be the dead of winter, and my body might be wrapped up in several layers of cosy clothes at all times, but when I opened the adorable sundae-shaped box from Ciroa Beauty to find their new Vanilla-Icious Shimmer Body Oil inside all I could imagine was sunset drinks by the water. I cannot wait for it to be warm enough to coat my limbs in the ultra-hydrating glycerin, jojoba and sunflower oil enriched, shimmering body oil. Plus, the lingering sweet scent is a lovely cherry on top." — Emma Allcock, BEAUTYcrew’s Content Producer

Key features:

Rich vanilla scent
Infused with glycerin, jojoba oil and sunflower oil
Light-catching subtle shimmer finish
Lightweight and fast-absorbing

100ml: $39.95 from Ciroa / Big W

from $60 at Charlotte Tilbury

"Charlotte Tilbury’s cheek products are unrivalled in my opinion, and the fresh finish of these new Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Blush Healthy Glow Sticks has already secured them a spot in my makeup bag. Traditionally I’ve always found cream-in-stick blush formulas a bit drying, but these come loaded with hyaluronic acid for a smooth, glowy effect once applied. I’ve only tried a peach shade so far (which is lovely), but I’ve got my eye on the 'Pinky Glow' colour to go a bit more 'Barbie'." — Delaney Loane, BEAUTYcrew’s Editor

Key features:

Available in six shades
Glide and blend balm formula
Buildable formula
Infused with hydrating and plumping Collageneer™ complex and hyaluronic acid
Luminous, soft-focus glow finish

"Truth be told, when it comes to celebrity beauty brands that sell skin care I’m immediately a bit cynical. In fact, prior to using Fenty Skin’s Dew N Plump Hydrating Nectar Glow Serum, the only Fenty Skin product I’d tried was the brand’s Total Cleans'R Remove-It-All Cleanser ($43 from Sephora). Perhaps it was the fact that Fenty’s first ever serum landed on my desk in the midst of winter, but my skin drank it up. Not only is it hydrating thanks to a SuperQuench Juice Complex made up of Barbados cherry, Kalahari melon and starfruit — as well as a blend of niacinamide, panthenol, polyglutamic and hyaluronic acids — it immediately plumps and smooths skin, creating the perfect canvas for makeup application." — Briar Clark, BEAUTYcrew’s Beauty Editor

Key features:

Three-in-one serum formula
Strengthens the moisture barrier, plumps skin, and enhances glow
Infused with SuperQuench Juice Complex, niacinamide, panthenol, polyglutamic and hyaluronic acids
Fenty Fresh scent (bergamot, jasmine and white orchid)
Suitable for all skin types

from $199 at JB Hi-Fi

"Yes, I’m talking about another hair product… but this time it’s a hair dryer. A mini one at that. Now, usually when people talk about a 'mini' or 'travel-size' hair tool, it’s a little bit useless. But this one changes the game. Small but mighty, the Laifen Mini effectively dries my hair just as quickly as my other hair dryers. It’s ultra-light (I’m talking less than a cup of coffee), quieter than a regular hair dryer, and somehow still just as powerful. I’ve found myself reaching for this more than my larger (and more expensive) hair tools, so it’s safe to say that the Laifen Mini will definitely be getting packed into my suitcase for my holiday later in the year!" — Maddy Wilson, BEAUTYcrew’s Shopping Content Producer

Key features:

Available in two colours
Multiple Heat and Speed Settings
Child Mode (gentle on the finer hair of children)
Designed to operate quietly
Ergonomic design for comfortable handling and ease of use
200 Million Negative Ions combat frizz

"Are razors the chicest of beauty essentials? Honestly, no. But when the new-to-Australia Billie Razors landed on my desk I was pleasantly surprised by the super cute colours and couldn’t wait to give them a go. Given my aforementioned rugged up to the max winter state, shaving hasn’t been top of the priority list, but I couldn’t wait to get them hung up in my shower (thanks to the cute little magnetic holder). I honestly couldn’t believe how good the shave was, barely a hint of spikey stubble for days and my skin felt soft and supported throughout the whole journey. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that they’re super affordable and seriously convenient." — Emma Allcock, BEAUTYcrew’s Content Producer

Key features:

Includes 1 x razor handle, 1 x five-blade razor refill, and 1 x magnetic holder
Lubricating, aloe-infused razor head
Smooth, close shave
Ergonomic handle

"I’m a fiend for a good lip gloss, but if there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s anything that burns the lips in the name of plumpness. Sorry, but nothing’s worth that. The Huda Beauty Faux Filler Jelly Oil takes a different approach, letting the juicy jelly-like texture give the visual effect of fuller lips through the magic of major shine. That’s great and all, but I’m more so here for the violet-based pink shade, the sweet fruity scent and the long-lasting hydration. The sheen genuinely lasts for hours, and it’s the kind of gloss you’ll actually be willing to wear from a comfort perspective." — Delaney Loane, BEAUTYcrew’s Editor

Key features:

Available in three shades
Infused with peptides and shea butter
Hydrates and softens lips
Non-sticky, sheer, high-shine finish

"I’m somewhat of a body wash hoarder. Like if I don’t have at least five bottles of the stuff in the house at all times I start to panic. Thankfully, most people don’t begrudge a girl for staying squeaky clean — although it’s hard to not be forgiving when you get a whiff of SOMA’s luxurious Amber & Jasmine 01 Body Wash. But it’s warm, woody, and floral fragrance isn’t the only reason this stuff has had pride of place in my shower caddy this month; it’s also enriched with a blend of niacinamide, provitamin B5, and native Australian Kakadu Plum, which help to clarify, brighten and hydrate skin too." — Briar Clark, BEAUTYcrew’s Beauty Editor

Key features:

Infused with niacinamide, provitamin B5, native Australian Kakadu plum, aloe vera and vitamin E
Softens and smooths
Enhances hydration and radiance
Nourishes and protects
Warm amber and jasmine fragrance

"I think it’s fair to say that I share a similar fear to most people when it comes to smelling bad, which is why I usually refrain from trying new deodorants. I rotate between a few that I know I can trust, and am a little wary of new additions. The Gem Skin-Loving Roll-on changed my mind though. Made with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, shea butter and vitamin E, plus a great Santal scent, the antiperspirant has now earned a place in my regular rotation." — Maddy Wilson, BEAUTYcrew’s Shopping Content Producer

Key features:

Available in three scents
Enriched with vitamin E, shea butter, and hyaluronic acid
Gentle on skin
Made with odour-fighting ingredients to protect for 48 hours
Alcohol and paraben free

"Much like Briar and Delaney I love a good lip product, so much so that I carry a small bag full of lip choices with me wherever I go. And while both my colleagues' faves have found their way into my regular rotation, when I finally got my hands on the Summer Fridays Dream Lip Oil in ‘Warm Beige’ ($45 from MECCA), I knew I was in for a real treat. Technically, this pick launched in January, but it’s new to me, okay? The oil glides on effortlessly with a sheer wash of hydrating colour. With a formula of nine plant-based oils, vegan collagen and vitamin E, it’s no wonder why my dry, winter lips have been absolutely loving this oil." — Emma Allcock, BEAUTYcrew’s Content Producer

Key features:

Available in eight shades
Enriched with a moisturising vegan oil complex
Infused with nourishing plant-based collagen and vitamin E
Lightweight, silky, smooth texture
High shine finish
