New fragrances, multitasking wonders and skincare treats that shine bright. That’s what the month of August brings us in the beauty space. From Rare Beauty’s new and first ever fragrance to Guerlain’s intensive complexion-reviving Bee Lab Shot, these new products are sure to give even your best tried-and-true products a run for their money.
Ahead, discover why, this month, we’re considering a complete rehaul of our beauty favourites, and why you should too.
Guerlain
Paired with the iconic release of Guerlain’s Youth Watery Oil serum, French luxury maison Guerlain is unveiling their all-new Bee Lab Shot. This intensive, seven-day treatment works to rejuvenate and repair the skin. Bid goodbye to fine lines and wrinkles. Plus, the skin gets a bright boost of youth—thanks to the 100 per cent natural formulation, enhanced with Norwegian Black Bee honey and vitamin Cg. These ingredients come together to boost the skin’s natural healing cycles, so your complexion looks and feels refreshed from the inside out.

Nars Cosmetic Relaunches The Multiple
In 1996, beauty indsutry legend François Nars used just one single product to achieve a stunning editorial makeup look—and completely rewrite the makeup industry. That inspired the creation of The Multiple, Nars Cosmetics’s multitasking stick. Nearly 30 years later, the balmy product , which can be used all over the face, is back and better than before. Single swipe eyeshadow? Creamy pop of colour on the lips? Blendable flush on the cheeks? Yes, to all of the above. Available in 12 shades, The Multiple is the best way to get that low-effort, high-impact look, especially when you’re on the go. Now, you don’t need to carry 10 products in your touch-up kit. Our pick of the lineup is shade Behave, the perfect colour for all-over application and a soft, pink glow that sings from within.

Rare Beauty’s First Fragrance
Vanilla, ginger and sandalwood are the key notes in Rare Beauty’s first fine fragrance. Admittedly, when I was learning about the scent, I was sceptical. I’m not usually one to reach for gourmand fragrances. But the Rare Eau de Parfum surprised me. Nuanced, unexpectedly light and just slightly musky, the perfume doesn’t so much sit on the skin as it sinks in. While the Rare EDP is already a delicious addition to your perfume wardrobe, you can even customise the scent with the brand’s newly launched Fragrance Layering Balms. Of the four, the one that draws me back to it most is the Fresh Bergamot, which lends a vibrant, citrus touch to the otherwise amber perfume.

Sekkisei’s New
Japanese skincare label Sekkisei celebrates the harmony of nature and beauty with their new Save The Blue campaign. This year, the campaign, kicked off in 2009, unveils not only limited edition packaging for its Save The Blue Lotion and Save The Blue Brightening Foam Cleanser Kit but also the Brightening Herbal Multi Gel Cream. This all-in-one product serves as an emulsion, serum and mask, and is crafted with licorice-derived ingredients and Job’s tears extract. These key tools come together to revitalise and rehydrate dull, sunken skin. Plus, the proceeds from the limited edition skincare collection allows you to give back with every purchase. Proceeds from the Save The Blue collection are donated to support coral regeneration projects in Okinawa, Japan.
