Oh, what’s this mascara I’m wearing? It’s Hermes, baby! The luxury house has finally dipped into eye makeup, and its inaugural offerings are too good to pass up. Launching with the basics, the Le Regard collection features eyeshadow quads, brushes, a lash curler, and mascara. The Trait d’Hermes Mascara comes in traditional brown and black shades, but the fun is reserved for the green, blue, and deep red options that lift and widen your eyes with a playful touch.

You’ll never know it, but underneath the layers of chunky knit sweaters and fleece sweats I wear throughout the winter is the smoothest, softest skin ever. Although winter makes me miserable, I find solace in the exfoliating products I can use without interference from the sun. Necessaire’s The Body Peel takes AHAs, BHAs, and PHAs and gently buffs away uneven tone and rough texture so your skin is bikini-ready by spring.

A stripped, dry barrier after rinsing off your makeup due to over-cleansing (yes, that’s a thing) is a surefire way to cause more irritation. The Neohamo Cleansing Oil blends ginseng extract and rice, Japonica, and Yuzu oil to nourish and moisturize the skin as you wash away dirt and debris.

For added plumpness atop your favorite lip gloss or your bare lips, opt for Caliray’s addition to the lip plumper craze. As your lips “swell,” rest assured they’re also being coated in a formula that smoothes and soothes using ceramides and peptides.

The Outset’s Botanical Rescue Balm is the multipurpose hero of your ludicrously capacious bag. Whether your day calls for a lip or hand salve, this balm is sure to keep you hydrated with its blend of oils (marula and rose hip, to name a few) and a hyaluronic acid alternative.

What comes to mind when you think of the scent of New York City? Pretzels? Bagels? Hot Dogs? How about patchouli, vanilla, and musk? New York Forever by Bond No. 9 reimagines the city as a golden bed of earthy and gourmand notes that are as intoxicating as a night out on the town and leave you wanting more.

---

Here’s a serum that can brighten and correct uneven tone in a lightweight, fast-absorbing formula that doesn’t irritate or congest skin. The results are a smoother, more youthful visage.

Autumn smells like sugary donuts, toasty vanilla lattes, and juicy, freshly picked apples—and so does Ellis Brookly’’s Apple Love Eau de Parfum. The gourmand scent packages the smells of the season—apple, vanilla, sandalwood, musk, and more—that swirl with sugary and floral notes that are as juicy as the first bite of the fruit.

---

The colder it gets, the thicker I need my products to be. With moisture and hydration being the mission for the winter, 54 Thrones expanded its line of butters to a body wash with the same nourishing qualities as its predecessor, thanks to ceramides, niacinamide, shea butter, and moringa leaf oil.

Fragrances formulated with oud provide the strongest sillage. Kayali’s newest collection features four different scents built around oud—Vanilla Oud, Cafe Oud, Rose Oud, and Tobacco Oud. Tobacco is spicy and sweet, perfect for the nights you wants to leave a lasting impression on any suitor.
