There’s no shortage of impressive new beauty arrivals landing on our desks. As our routines simplify for the warmer weather, a few standout formulas have completely taken over. From sculpting mascaras and easy lip stains to fresh signature scents, here is what the RUSSH team is currently testing and loving.
YSL Beauty Lash Latex Lengthening and Lift-Sculpting Mascara

I’m so desperate to get my hands on the YSL Beauty Lash Latex Mascara, it’s not just cheekbones that need sculpting, lashes need support too. It also promises exceptionally long wear, which is perfect for me and my long nights.

COPINI Love Bite

I love the COPINI Power Play and saw this product was coming soon on socials – I like that it has an applicator on the end so I can avoid stained finger tips, and the colours look so nice. I want to try Toasted.

Activist Manuka Honey Mask

I love this mask. I discovered it after I had a facial at FENN earlier this year. It's gentle, nourishing and completely natural. It soothes and hydrates my skin like nothing else.
Loved by: Maggie Shapter, Designer & Producer
Augustinius Bader Overnight Restorative Cream

My dream is to have such well cared for skin, I can skip my base and just go to eyeliner and mascara. I’m so keen to try the new Augustinus Bader Overnight Restorative Cream, I love the texture of their products and find my skin really does respond best to things over night, who doesn’t want to wake up lifted and luminous?

The newest fragrance from the team at Le Labo. Very excited to pop in store to sample alongside their City Exclusive Collection this month.

RATIONALE #3 The Brilliance Tinted Serum SPF50+

Can confirm the new formulation from RATIONALE is amazing. I’ve been wearing this everyday as my base coverage and love the glow.

Rhode Pocket Pearl
Minis excite me. Perfect for my smaller bags. I’m looking forward to seeing the shimmery finish on my skin.

sans [ceuticals] Perpetual range

I’ve long loved the brand, but have recently taken home one of the products from its new high-tech waterless Perpetual range. The canisters are made entirely from recycled and home-compostable materials. I’m always enamoured by new, sustainable products.

Summer Fridays ShadeDrops® Tinted Base With SPF50

I recently tried this new Summer Fridays SPF and it's a perfect milky fluid (plus it's a mineral formula - my favourite).

Smashbox Dual Filter 2-In-1 Concealer + Foundation

As we head into the warmer months, I’m an advocate for less is more, done well. The Smashbox Dual Filter 2 in 1 is light yet buildable, that enhances not masks, and is perfect for summer skin that still feels like yours.
Loved by: Serafina Angeli, Campaigns Manager
La Prairie Swiss Pristine Collection

I am so intrigued by La Prairie's new Swiss Pristine collection which is a simple three-step protocol that aims to nourish and support the skin barrier. I’m all about ease of routine.

Armani Beauty Luminous Silk

I tried the new reformulation, which is often dangerous territory, but it's incredible. If anything I find it slightly more luminous than the original but it has beautiful longevity. It just makes your skin look insane but natural. I love it.
