As winter slowly fades and the spring equinox approaches, many of us are ready for a change of scenery and a fresh start. This time of year typically calls for spring clean-outs, a switch-up in our clothing and skincare routines, and of course, exciting new beauty launches to welcome in the warmer weather. From fragrances to retinol alternatives, here are seven must-try products that InStyle editors have tested and fallen in love with this month.
First up, Milk Makeup’s Pore Eclipse Matte Setting Spray is perfect for those looking for a more matte finish to their makeup look. This spray has all the staying power of Milk’s popular Hydro Grip, but with a subtle matte finish. It’s a great option for those looking to prevent their makeup from becoming oily.
For those in search of retinol alternatives, Tatcha’s The Silk Serum Wrinkle-Smoothing Retinol Alternative may be the perfect solution. The serum is made with retinol alternative ingredients, such as sea fennel, known to help with natural skin turnover, and Tatcha’s silk protein and up-cycled cranberry extract that give skin a brighter, firmer, and plumper appearance.
For eyeshadow that stays put all day, Hourglass Voyeur Eyeshadow Stick is a must-try. The cream formula is crease-resistant and highly pigmented, with a shimmery finish to create the perfect look for any occasion. Sundays Pearl Collection L.08 is also highly recommended, with three pearlescent shades that give nails a soft shimmer and color.
If you’re in the market for a new fragrance, Relevant 13 Stems Eau de Parfum is a great option. Inspired by strong foundations and growth, this fragrance has notes of French mimosa and violet leaf, that create a green, lush, and complex scent, leaving you wanting more.
Lastly, Sisley Paris Les Eaux Rêvées D’Isa Eau de Toilette is perfect for those looking for a warm and bright scent that evokes the energy of good chaos. The fragrance is a mix of mandarin, pink berries, jasmine, and green tea, creating a perfume that is perfect for any spring or summer adventure.
In conclusion, these seven beauty products are highly recommended by InStyle editors and are a great addition to any spring beauty routine. From matte setting sprays to retinol alternatives and new fragrances, there’s something for everyone to try out this season.
