If January is moving fast, beauty is moving faster.
Dior Beauty
For Spring 2026, Dior Makeup leans all the way into joy, with Creative and Image Director Peter Philips serving up the Ultra-Glow Collection as a candy-coated take on modern luminosity. Think gourmand shades, duochrome shine and a playful irreverence that reworks Dior’s classic beauty codes into something brighter, bolder and a little flirty. It’s ultra-luminous makeup with a wink-proof formula that proves glow doesn’t have to be serious to be luxurious.
Tom Ford Beauty
TOM FORD’s Soleil Neige Eau de Parfum steps into signature status as the ultimate winter escape bottled, where crisp alpine air meets a flash of sunlit indulgence. Bright, green citrus opens the scent before melting into winter-white florals, rose absolute and soft musk, evoking a day on the slopes that effortlessly turns into après-ski glamour. It’s cool, radiant, and quietly decadent, the kind of fragrance that feels like cashmere against snow.
Moroccanoil
With its first foray into cosmetics, Moroccanoil distills the same science-backed hydration and sensorial luxury that turned its hair oil into a global icon straight into a lip essential. Clinically proven to deliver 24-hour hydration in one swipe, the treatment-meets-balm blends argan oil and butter with peptides and hyaluronic acid for lips that look plush, smooth, and naturally luminous without the tack. Inspired by Mediterranean flavors, shades like Moroccan Mint Tea, Berry Pomegranate, and Vanilla Date add a sheer wash of color with a spa-level finish that feels unmistakably Moroccanoil.
Dr Dennis Gross
Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare is stepping into color for the first time in 2026, expanding its cult-favorite DermInfusions Plump + Repair Lip Treatment into four universally flattering tints: Pink, Beige, Berry and Brown. Powered by the brand’s award-winning DermInfusions technology, each shade delivers treatment-level repair with sheer, buildable pigment that visibly plumps, smooths fine lines, and hydrates. Consider this your winter lip uniform: skincare-first, quietly glossy and made to flatter every undertone without trying too hard.
OLEHENRIKSEN
OLEHENRIKSEN’s new Strawberry Sorbet Sugar Melt Lip Scrub feels like the viral Pout Preserve’s overachieving best friend, delivering melt-on-contact exfoliation that smooths lips in seconds. Powered by skincare science with pastry-level indulgence energy, it gently buffs away dry flakes while conditioning and softening, no rinsing or aggressive scrubbing required. Consider it the essential prep step that turns rough texture into a soft, polished pout, perfectly primed for shine.
Paul Mitchell
Paul Mitchell’s Texture 3-in-1 Interchangeable Curling Iron and Hot Comb is a rare hot tool that actually understands natural, curly and coily hair, delivering pro-level results with one base and three smart attachments. Designed with textured-hair experts, it offers real versatility from smoothing roots and stretching hair to defining coils and polishing waves, all with thoughtful safety features and shine-boosting ceramic technology. The result is smoother, glossier, less frizzy hair that feels intentional, efficient and finally made with us in mind.
Eadem
EADEM leads with performance, proving that effective skincare should work across all skin tones, not just promise inclusivity. Built from the ground up by leading chemists and validated by dermatologists, the brand’s clinically proven formulas deliver real results while respecting the skin’s natural balance. Its latest launch, The Mark, continues that mission with targeted, technology-backed care designed to show up where your skin needs it most.

Shiseido
SHISEIDO’s Benefiance Wrinkle Smoothing Eye Cream is the kind of quiet overachiever your under eyes deserve heading into 2026. In just seven days, 96 percent of users saw dark circles look visibly reduced, thanks to a peptide and squalane powered formula that smooths fine lines and softens everything from crow’s feet to under eye creases. Consider it a reset button for tired eyes that want to look rested, bright and well taken care of.
MAC Cosmetics
MAC Cosmetics is giving matte a modern refresh with an expanded Powder Kiss lineup that feels straight out of backstage. Drawing on East meets West lip trends, the new Powder Kiss Hazy Matte Lipstick delivers an airy, diffused finish with a gel-like glide and 54 percent more hydration. The Powder Kiss Lip and Cheek Mousse follows with a whipped, weightless veil of soft-focus color that makes matte feel effortless again.
Each & Every
Each & Every continues to raise the bar for clean deodorant with Zen State, a scent that feels as intentional as it does calming. Notes of green tea, bergamot, and soft woods create a grounded, quietly luxurious moment that turns a daily essential into a reset ritual. Built on the brand’s fewer but better ingredient philosophy, Zen State proves that clean formulas can still deliver elevated performance and real sensorial payoff.
Victoria Beckham Beauty
Victoria Beckham Beauty adds a cool new neutral to its lineup with Silver Glaze; the latest Satin Kajal Jewel Liner shade designed for subtle impact with edge. The chrome-kissed silver can be worn solo for a sleek flash of sparkle or layered over your go-to kajal for a suspended, light-catching finish that feels polished, not costume. With a waterproof formula and eye-safe, non-microplastic shimmer, it delivers modern metallic definition that knows when to shine and when to whisper.

Coach
Coach opens a new chapter in its fragrance story with Dreams Starlight, a luminous scent that captures optimism, freedom, and the thrill of possibility. Crafted by perfumer Guillaume Flavigny, the fragrance opens with a gourmand pop of pistachio, blooms into sunny ylang-ylang, and settles into creamy sandalwood for a soft, romantic finish. It feels like bottled confidence for people who move through life with intention, joy, and their eyes on what’s next.
Kiehl’s Since 1851
Kiehl’s expands its cult Ultra Facial lineup with Ultra Facial Cream Medicated, a targeted moisturizer made for moments when skin feels truly stressed. Clinically backed and fast-acting, it calms flare-ups, post-procedure sensitivity, and everyday irritation in as little as five seconds while supporting long-term barrier repair. It’s classic Kiehl’s hydration energy but tuned for skin that needs immediate relief and lasting resilience.

MUGLER
Mugler Fragrances’s Alien Pulp Eau de Parfum leans fully into temptation, blending juicy raspberry with warm vanilla for a fruity floral that feels both bold and addictive. At its heart, jasmine grandiflorum blooms alongside airy lily of the valley, creating a creamy floral glow that contrasts beautifully with the vibrant top notes. Anchored by cashmeran and soft musk, the scent lingers close to the skin with a hypnotic, unforgettable sensuality that feels like pure Mugler fantasy.
DOVE
Dove’s reformulated Whole Body Deo Alcohol Free Sprays are a quiet upgrade for all day freshness, delivering invisible, cooling odor protection for up to 72 hours from pits to toes.
