Halsey for YSL Beauté.
The recording artist is well known in the music world, but what’s not common knowledge is that she’s also a talented make-up artist and, rather than simply wearing the French brand’s products, she’s also created her own looks. A company spokesman told Allure: “While everyone knows about her chart-topping music, her talent as a make-up artist is a secret to many. Not for long, as YSL Beauté taps into Halsey’s unique vision of beauty and the way she offers her fans make-up tips and tricks. In this partnership, Halsey will showcase her make-up looks to her 6.5 million Instagram followers on a monthly basis.”

Philosophy Purity Made Simple Moisturiser.
A new product from the brand behind the fan favourite One-Step Facial Cleanser and 2017 Best of Beauty winner Pore Extractor Exfoliating Clay Mask. This moisturiser, which is suitable for dry and sensitive skin, is made from a selection of almost edible ingredients, including cold-pressed chia seed oil, meadowfoam seed oil, a green tea antioxidant complex, and vitamins C and E. There’s also a blend of fatty oils and moisture-locking glycerin and hyaluronic acid. To be launched at Sephora.

MAC Whisper of Gilt.
The cult favourite first appeared back in 2012; then as limited editions in 2016 and 2017, selling out both times and proving so popular that the brand is bringing it back for good. It was available for 24 hours only as a special for Valentine’s Day and will have its official launch in April. If you’re unfamiliar with the product, it’s a liquid powder highlighter – which lasts up to 10 hours.
To be launched at MAC stores.

Benefit Badgal Bang Mascara.
It seems everyone’s going wild for this new mascara having seen some seemingly miraculous before and after campaign shots that give the impression of falsies without the hassle. This is thanks to Benefit’s space technology which promises big things: volumised lashes, 36-hour wear and lengthened lashes.
