New Beginnings: An Editor Shares 9 of Her Favourite Beauty Products For November 2022
Fast-forward into autumn with tweeds, a wind-whipped flush and a fragrance that smells like branches snapping underfoot
Hot Under The Collar
Bois Dormant is a nostalgic love letter to Hedi Slimane’s 19-year-old self and his fondness for Savile Row tailoring. The jolt of bergamot and juniper feels fresh on first spritz before settling down to a fuzzy, powdery, woody trail reminiscent of flannel collars on autumn days.
Material Girl
GIRL Tweed is as iconic for Chanel as the double c logo. So it’s only fitting that the new eyeshadow palettes are not only embossed with the texture of tweed but come in pouches made of the very material.
Playing With Fire
If we had to choose, Rouge Grenat would be the stand out shade from Hermès’ latest trio of blazing red lipsticks. Inspired by garnet gemstones, it reads as both red and purple, metallic and matte and invites a certain nonchalance.
Bright Lights
This liquid highlighter’s super power? Creating the glossiest version of your skin possible using prismatic pearl technology to reflect and refract light when worn alone or mixed into foundation.
Lighten Up
Wave goodbye to dull skin and dark spots with this potent duo of 10% vitamin C and arbutin. The non-greasy finish is appealing, as are the transformative results after just one week.
Polished Performance
Part exfoliator, part mask, papaya enzymes dissolve dead cells for smooth skin you just want to stroke on repeat. Activate the powder with water and leave the frothy cream to get to work for 60 seconds.
Sleep Talking
The buttery texture treats your skin to plant retinol and organic gorse extract to address dryness and loss of firmness. If you’re going through menopause or just want to dispel the signs of ageing, this is heaven.
Eye-Conic
Finally a concealer that’s opaque enough to can – cel out the bluish rings below your eyes without looking chalky. Better still, it plumps up fine lines with a medley of niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and vegan collagen.
First Flush
Gucci has added powder blush to its bur – geoning make-up line. Infused with black rose oil, its long-lasting formula drapes seamlessly over your cheekbones and inspires late-night confidence.
