9 Best Beauty Products of January 2022 | The Beauty List
The New Year means one thing: fresh beauty drops, including one of the classiest scents to hit your pulse points, a two-minute smoky eye and the backstage secret to a flawless base…
Scents of Style
Inspired by the French poet of the same name, everything about this scent plays on duality: light and dark; the freshness of lavender in men’s colognes and the more feminine, powdery accents of iris root. Stylish yet unassuming, it’s like the white shirt of the fragrance world.
Prime Time
Enriched with a sebum-regulating complex including bamboo powders and salicylic acid, meet the latest all-round hero for staving off shine, smoothing enlarged pores into submission and turning your foundation into airbrushed perfection.
Cap It All off
The only thing better than the hydrating formula – think fig extract, olive oil, hyaluronic acid – is the saturated colour and four customisable caps: fresh roses; polka-dots, a red and gold adornment and this covetable sacred hearts print.
Apple of your Eye
The latest addition to Mona Kattan’s wildly successful fragrance line is proof that sweet doesn’t have to mean saccharine. In fact, this fruity floral blend of red apples, berries, jasmine and rose is positively bursting with delicious attitude.
The Real Deal
Youthful, glowing skin is down to two basic things: hydration and speedy cell turnover, rather than any behind-the-scenes sorcery. This cream harnesses the power of hyaluronic acid and retinol-alternative bakuchiol to achieve both in one fell swoop.
Line of Beauty
With its velvety blue hue, this kajal pencil marries intensity with effortless application. For precision, apply to the waterline or melt the malleable formula across your lash line for a smoky finish.
Say Spa-aaah
Turn your skincare routine into a calming ritual with a cleansing powder rich in maca to purge pollution-weary skin, a repairing serum powered by argan stem cells and a refreshing face mist made from distilled rose petals.
Cheek to Chic
After years of contouring, we’re embracing the freshness of blusher anew. Perk up a sallow, washed-out complexion with this cream-to-powder formula designed to make skin look impossibly luminous while imparting a delicate rosy flush.
Crowning Glory
Izil’s shampoo, conditioner and scalp massager tap into the new trend for the ‘skinification’ of hair routines. Brimming with selenium-rich horsetail extract, this trio boosts scalp circulation and gets to the root of dry lengths and frazzled ends.
