From barrier-repairing skin care to glow-boosting cleansers and hair treatments that rival salon formulas, the newest launches this week prove that beauty innovation is alive and very well. Not sure where to start? Here are 15 of the best new beauty products we tried this week.
Hydrating Hair & Scalp Mask, $24.99, by Oil Garden
Rosemary is amazing in focaccia. And even better in Oil Garden’s Hydrating Hair & Scalp Mask – which leans into the brand’s aromatherapy roots, combining Coconut Oil and Sweet Almond Oil with plant proteins to deeply hydrate and strengthen strands from root to tip. But what really sets it apart is the rosemary and peppermint essential oil blend, which invigorates the scalp while helping support a healthy, flake-free environment. The creamy treatment leaves hair noticeably softer and glossier after one use, and it’s part of the brand’s new rosemary-powered haircare regime inspired by the viral success of its Rosemary Hair & Scalp Oil. Think of it as a spa-level reset for both hair and scalp.
Good Night Pillow Mist, $45, by Kit at Mecca
A good night’s sleep is arguably the most underrated beauty treatment, and this calming pillow spray is designed to help make it happen. Kit’s Good Night Pillow Mist blends Tasmanian lavender oil with steam-distilled cedarwood to create a grounding, botanical scent that instantly shifts the mood of your bedroom. Notes of cardamom and spearmint open the fragrance, before melting into lavender and patchouli, and settling into a warm base of sandalwood, vanilla and amyris. A few spritzes over your pillow and sheets creates a spa-like wind-down ritual that helps quiet racing thoughts and encourage deeper rest.
Ultimate Elixir Hair Oil, $34, by MCo Beauty
Glossy hair in seconds? We’re listening. The dupe masters at MCoBeauty have just dropped the Ultimate Elixir Hair Oil – a lightweight leave-in treatment designed to smooth flyaways, boost shine and soften strands without the dreaded greasy finish. The formula relies on nourishing oils that coat the hair shaft just enough to improve texture and reflect light, leaving hair looking sleek and polished. Bonus points for the subtly luxe citrus-floral scent that lingers throughout the day. It’s part of the brand’s new salon-inspired haircare lineup, proving that glossy, healthy-looking hair doesn’t have to come with a triple-digit price tag.
3-in-1 Hydrating Milk, $40, by Bronte Body Care
Minimalists, this one’s for you. Bronte Body Care’s 3-in-1 Hydrating Milk condenses toner, serum and moisturiser into a single step – without compromising on performance. The featherlight formula relies on a Multi-Ceramide Complex, hyaluronic acid and squalane to deliver multi-layer hydration while strengthening the skin barrier. Niacinamide, beta-glucan and chamomile help calm redness and support sensitive skin, making it a smart option for those prone to irritation or eczema. Spritz into your hands before applying to the face, or smooth directly onto the body for an instant dose of moisture and glow.
Very Luxe Lips, $41, by Go-To
Go-To has expanded its beloved Very Luxe lineup with a slew of new releases – including this balm-mask hybrid designed to upgrade your lip care routine. Very Luxe Lips works double duty as a nourishing daytime balm and an intensive overnight treatment, powered by a bio-inspired peptide that helps support smoother, plumper-looking lips. A blend of multi-molecular weight hyaluronic acid delivers deep hydration while reducing the appearance of lip lines, and antioxidant-rich pomegranate flower extract adds a subtle natural volumising effect. The result is a plush, cushiony finish that leaves lips looking fuller, softer and infinitely smoother.
DermResults Solutions Biocellulose Sheet Mask, $230 (10 pack), by Arbonne
There are sheet masks, and then there are biocellulose sheet masks. Arbonne’s DermResults treatment is crafted from ultra-fine fermented fibres that cling to the skin like a second layer, maximising the absorption of its serum-rich formula. Each mask is infused with plant stem cells and hydrating actives that help revive tired, dull skin while restoring bounce and suppleness. The biodegradable fibres hold up to ten times their weight in serum, meaning your skin drinks in every last drop of hydration.
Yellow Moonbeam Retinal Elixir, $159, by Raeso at Sephora
Retinal is having a moment in advanced skin care. And Raeso’s Yellow Moonbeam Elixir is a beautiful example of why. The evening treatment uses encapsulated retinal to accelerate cellular turnover while minimising irritation through slow-release technology. Bakuchiol works alongside it to smooth fine lines and improve tolerance, while niacinamide, vitamin E and squalane help strengthen the skin barrier. New Zealand botanicals – including alpine rosehip, harakeke flaxseed and Antarctic red algae – add an extra layer of hydration and antioxidant protection. The velvety formula sinks in quickly, leaving skin smoother and brighter by morning.
Exfoliator, $55, by Eshu
Gentlemen. This one’s for you. Clean beauty meets Australian botanicals in this thoughtfully formulated exfoliator from men’s beauty brand Eshu. The scrub combines biodegradable bamboo powder, pumice and jojoba beads with a natural BHA to gently resurface the skin without irritation. Kakadu plum – one of the richest sources of vitamin C – brightens and protects, while lemon myrtle and quandong help calm and nourish the skin post-exfoliation. Designed for all skin types, the formula leaves skin smoother and clearer while maintaining the brand’s commitment to refillable packaging and biodegradable ingredients.
Peach Glaze 2% Niacinamide Cleanser, $44, by Ole Henriksen at Sephora
If glazed skin is the goal, this cleanser is step one. Ole Henriksen’s Peach Glaze Cleanser blends 2% niacinamide with antioxidant-rich peach juice to brighten the complexion while refining the look of pores. The creamy formula removes makeup, SPF and impurities without stripping the skin, leaving behind a hydrated, luminous finish. After just one week, clinical testing showed visible improvements in skin tone and texture – proof that a cleanser can do more than just clean.
Alpha Arbutin 2% + Squalane 10% Overnight Mask, $19.99, by Skin Republic
Dark spots and uneven tone are the targets for Skin Republic’s new overnight mask. The formula features 2% alpha arbutin, a plant-derived brightening ingredient that helps inhibit melanin production to reduce pigmentation over time. Paired with deeply nourishing squalane, the mask works overnight to hydrate the skin while gradually improving clarity and tone. Expect softer, more luminous skin by morning and noticeably brighter results within a couple of weeks.
Clarity Brightening Crème Cleanser, $39.99, by AyurScience
Rooted in centuries of Ayurvedic tradition, AyurScience’s Brightening Crème Cleanser blends ancient botanicals with modern formulation science. The gentle cream cleanser contains vitamin C-rich amla, purifying tulsi, calming sandalwood and antioxidant saffron to brighten and even the complexion. Gotu kola helps support collagen production, while the brand’s AyurActive™ botanical complex works to calm redness and protect against environmental stressors.
Ormedic Balancing Lip Enhancement Complex, $54.95, by Image Skincare
Fun fact: Hailey Bieber may have her own beauty brand, but she has long been a fan of this nourishing lip treatment. In fact, according to Image Skincare founder Janna Ronert, the model once pulled it straight out of her bag during a chance encounter. The formula blends avocado oil and vitamin E to deeply moisturise and soften lips, while a polypeptide complex helps support a fuller-looking pout. The finish is glossy yet natural, making it ideal for everyday wear.
Hyaluronic Jelly Glaze Mask, $54, by Skinstitut
Inspired by the “glass skin” trend but grounded in cosmeceutical science, Skinstitut’s Hyaluronic Jelly Glaze Mask delivers an instant surge of hydration. Hyaluronic acid draws moisture into the skin, while red algae helps reinforce the barrier and lock it in. Aloe vera and chamomile calm visible redness, leaving the complexion plump, smooth and luminous.
Hydrating Essence, $50, by Kerasilk
Dry or damaged hair gets an instant upgrade with Kerasilk’s Hydrating Essence. The lightweight treatment is powered by Biomimetic Silk and 4% betaine, which work together to regulate the hair’s moisture balance and strengthen the fibre. Clinically tested to provide twice the hydration of untreated hair, the formula smooths strands while helping prevent split ends and breakage.
Brighten + Repair Intensive Purple Shampoo and Conditioner, $12.95 each, by Provoke at Coles
Blondes, consider this your brass-banishing secret weapon. Provoke’s Brighten + Repair duo uses a clever combination of purple and blue pigments to neutralise yellow and orange tones in a single wash. Enriched with pro-vitamin B5, the formulas also help strengthen damaged hair bonds while boosting shine and softness. The result is brighter, cooler blonde hair that looks freshly toned – no salon appointment required.
