Beauty’s next big things

Just like the Juicy Shaker, the Lancôme Matte Shaker is changing up lip colour. The liquid-to-matte formula gives intense pigment in an easy-to-wear, comfortable finish that’s not drying.

There’s a new way to fragrance: three of Byredo’s most iconic scents – Bal d’Afrique, Blanche and Gypsy Water – have been repackaged into kabuki brushes infused with aromatic translucent powder. Just dust and go.

This Nails Inc Make Up Magic All-In-One Formula works like a CC cream – colour corrects, levels out ridges, hardens nails and leaves behind a flattering pinky-nude colour. Use alone or as a base coat under your favourite nail polish.

A mess-free mud mask? Believe it. This Patchology Smartmud Mask combines the detoxifying benefits of a traditional mud mask (including kaolin clay, charcoal and volcanic ash) in the form of a convenient sheet mask. No more muddy fingerprints on the basin.

Mascara reinvented: Rimmel’s patented tube resembles a cocktail shaker, refreshing the formula from dry to creamy every time you use it. Dior has a flexible tube that, when squeezed, helps soften the formula and load up the brush.

Embedded with a microphone that records the sound the tines make as they travel through your strands, this Kérastase Hair Coach Smart Hair Brush analyses and monitors your hair, then suggests products via an app. Genius.

Developed by plastic surgeons and dermatologists, the brush hairs are infused with antioxidants, anti-ageing collagen and peptides to help improve the appearance of imperfections. Use it to apply serums and moisturisers, and again with foundation or tinted moisturiser to blend and buff your base.

If you don’t clean your brushes as often as you’re supposed to (tsk, tsk), this one’s for you: after adding soap and water, hold your brushes vertically in the top opening of the Stylpro Brush Cleaner and watch as the spinning function quickly cleans bristles and speeds up the drying process, so you can get back to your face-painting faster.
