If there’s one thing beauty editors are known for, it’s sifting through products like pros and emerging with absolute gems. After all, trialing, layering and testing formulas is our bread and butter. But even with the shelves overflowing with shiny new releases, there are always those products we restock without hesitation—our ride-or-dies.
Curious about what’s made the cut this year? These skincare, makeup, haircare and bodycare heroes are the ones we’re hitting reorder on—and trust us, they’re worth the hype.
“I’ve always been a blush girl, and the Huda Beauty Blush Filter Liquid Blush in Black Cherry is my go-to for a flush that looks effortlessly chic. The dark cherry hue might look bold in the bottle, but trust me, it blends out like a dream for a natural, just-pinched look. Thanks to its lightweight gel-like formula, it glides onto the skin without feeling sticky or heavy. Plus, the long-lasting wear means I can take a Zoom call, have lunch and still look radiant without touch-ups. For all my fellow blush-lovers out there, this one’s a total game-changer.”
“Consider this your skincare-meets-makeup hybrid superhero. The Thank You Farmer Be Beautiful Luminous CC Cream is the perfect pick for days when I want a no-makeup makeup look (and that’s most days). The sheer, buildable coverage evens out my skin tone, while the SPF has been my saviour during sunny brunches. I love how it gives my skin a lit-from-within glow without looking greasy—bonus points for the hydrating formula that never clings to dry patches. This CC cream is in my all-year-round restock cart and, once you’ve tried it, it might be in yours too.”
I’m not afraid to admit it—I live for a plump, juicy pout and the Too Faced Lip Injection Plumping Lip Gloss in Bubblegum Yum delivers exactly that. One swipe of this tingle-inducing formula and my lips are instantly visibly fuller. The bubblegum pink adds a pop of glossiness without veering into over-the-top territory. Whether I’m layering it over my favourite lipstick or wearing it solo, this gloss keeps the compliments rolling in.”
“I’ve been using the COSRX Advanced Snail 96 Mucin Power Essence for years and nothing else gives me the same level of plumpness and hydration. Its hero ingredient—snail mucin—is a multitasker, helping to hydrate, repair and soothe my skin barrier after long, makeup-filled days. It’s earned its forever spot on my shelf because few products do so much with so little fuss. If you’re new to essences, start with this one and thank me later.”
“The Bioderma Atoderm Creme is my trusty winter saviour. It keeps my skin so hydrated during the brutal colder months that I’ve practically said goodbye to dryness. The fragrance-free formula is intensely nourishing without being greasy, so it layers like a dream under SPF or makeup. What I love most? It’s gentle enough for sensitive skin yet powerful enough to keep dry patches at bay for hours.”
“The Laneige Cream Skin Cerapeptide Refiner is a toner-meets-moisturiser hybrid that gives my skin an instant surge of hydration while strengthening my barrier with ceramides and peptides. For someone like me who’s on a never-ending mission to simplify my routine, this one is perfect. I often use it as my only moisturiser on lazy days and it still leaves my skin dewy. If you’re after a soft and glowing skin finish, this is a must-have.”
“Confession time—I’ve tried more shampoos than I can count, but I always come back to the Aveda Cherry Almond Shampoo. Its dreamy scent alone is enough to keep you hooked (think sweet cherry blossoms and almond oil), but it’s the softness and shine it gives my hair that has me repurchasing it every time. It’s gentle enough to use daily—it leaves my hair silky-smooth without weighing it down. Trust me, hair-wash day is so much better when this shampoo is in my shower lineup.”
