8 Products Our Editors Can’t Get Enough Of This Month: April 2023

“Burberry Beauty Kisses Lipstick in No.41 is like a decadent dessert for your lips. Application is akin to gliding on velvet and the luxe gold packaging and stunning rosy scent all come together to make for an indulgent experience. My only tip would be to pair it with a trusted lip liner to lock everything in seamlessly! But they definitely weren’t lying about how long-wearing this lipstick is…”

“We all know how much I love body care, so I could barely contain my excitement when Charlotte Tilbury launched its new Magic Body Cream. I am a big fan of the original Magic Cream (it is the perfect base for makeup), so I basically leapt out of my seat to apply the new body version all over my limbs. A hydrating, smoothing and firming formula, this body cream leaves the skin feeling soft, supple and instantly-nourished. Leaving a lovely radiance to the skin, I can only assume this is what the supermodels use to get that ethereal glow.”

“The only thing better than clean hair is clean hair but with zero waste. BAR NONE is just that! Plastic-free, infinitely recyclable, cruelty-free and vegan, BAR NONE makes it easy to be good. The everyday shampoo and conditioner is my new shower staple. Alongside the calming, creamy coconut scent, the BAR NONE formulas contain aloe vera extract so your strands will be left feeling soothed and smoothed. Great formulas with an even better ethos, a brand that ticks all of my boxes!”

“Well, this product was a surprise! I normally stick with shower gels, so I wasn’t sure how a shower cream would go. I have to say—L’Occitane’s Creme De Douche Shower Cream was a treat to use! It certainly is a lot more gentle and moisturising than the traditional gels. It’s the perfect product heading into the cooler months when dry skin can become a bit of a problem.”

“Rationale has relaunched and reimagined its iconic superfluid, a glow-inducing tint that I have personally been wearing for years. The new Beautiful Skin Superfluid SPF30 offers a slightly tackier coverage, making it buildable, while still providing that iconic Rationale glow. I wouldn’t be a beauty editor if I didn’t warn you that the formula has gone from SPF50 to SPF30—but it’s still worth the investment.”

“What a golden gem! I absolutely love Gisou’s Honey Infused Hair Oil. It is so light, non-greasy and sweetly scented. I have been applying it to damp and dry hair daily to help tame frizz and flyaways while also nourishing my dry locks. My hair feels more hydrated and softer. Highly recommend!”

“With winter’s bite well and truly on the way, this Aesop Sublime Replenishing Night Masque has been a heavenly addition to my usual skin routine. It’s so nourishing in these transeasonal months when my skin loses hydration. I love its incorporation of frankincense; an amazing earthy scent, which not only helps to protect skin cells but also has the aromatherapeutic benefits of grounding and encouraging sleep. Although it’s tempting to use every night, I’m trying to use it sparingly as it’s only a 60mL product. Although the benefit of this size—you can take it on those long haul flights to protect your skin from the air conditioning and other environmental nasties up in the air.”

“Will it lift, will it add volume, will it flake, is it easy to wipe off? When it comes to mascara, I’ve been through a fair amount of tubes and these are all questions we ask ourselves when opting for our next purchase. Enter: Tarte’s Maneater Waterproof Mascara—it will have waterproof adversaries changing their ways (myself included). The formula delivers a fine coating that elongates and lifts lashes thanks to the custom fine bristle brush applicator. It also won’t leave behind any clumpy lashes and is surprisingly easy to wash off at the end of any big day. You could sweat (and cry and I really mean cry) and the formula will still stay perfectly intact. It’s now an OG in my mascara rotation.”
