We've tested all the new launches to bring you the best of the best
The life of a beauty addict is rarely ever dull thanks to dozens of brand new makeup, skin and hair products launching every single week.
New launches always bring with them a lot of hype, and so it can be hard to tell whether that hype is actually warranted; nobody wants to splash the cash on something they’ll end up hating.
Fortunately for you, the Marie Claire online beauty team gets to test the lot of them way before they hit the shops, from the best mascara to the best moisturisers for dry skin.
We’ll be bringing you a break down of the best new releases you should be fighting to get your hands on before they sell out – which, trust us, they will do.
So, what’s good this month?
It wouldn’t be summer without stocking up on the best fake tan, and but you haven’t seen anything til you’ve tried Oskia’s new adaptive tan mist and face drops. Working deep within your skin’s layers to boost your melanin levels, this formula encourages a tan that’s truly natural without sitting in the sun for hours on end. Genius.
Meanwhile Chanel is taking centre stage when it comes to beauty innovations, having launched a mascara with the first ever 3D printed wand. The formula itself is also pretty genius, as it doesn’t require you to keep topping up the brush with more product.
And ghd has teamed up with fashion brand Lulu Guinness in line with the #KissThisCancer campaign, bringing a beautiful new printed version of their iconic gold styler. £10 from each one sold will go to Breast Cancer Now, meaning you’re doing your bit in the fight against cancer by purchasing one.
Keep scrolling for our curated edit of the best new makeup launches and hype-worthy skincare drops (and wave goodbye to your healthy bank balance in the process).
It’s time for a big beauty haul.

Oskia Adaptive Tan Mist, £48, Fabled
Forget what you think you know about fake tan, because this new mist from Oskia is a game-changer (and we don't use that expression lightly). As well as giving your skin a gentle, not orange, tan, this formula gets deep into your skin's layers to boost your melanin levels - your skin's natural pigment - to produce a sunless tan that's naturally yours. If that's not incredible, we don't know what is.

Chanel Le Volume Revolution de Chanel Mascara, £28, John Lewis
Chanel has created quite the revolution here, inventing the world's first 3D-printed mascara wand. But the innovation doesn't stop there, as the formula is enriched with micro cavities, which absorb the formula to get the precise amount needed to cover your lashes – no furious pumping of the mascara wand needed here. You'll feel how much work went into this one with every single use.
