November’s Best New Beauty Buys
Almond Shower Foam
£22 | L’Occitane
If you’re devoted to L’Occitane’s iconic almond shower oil, this foam version is right up your street – perfect for giving your daily bathing rituals a real sense of occasion. Airy and indulgent, the sensorial appeal of a foam never wanes, plus we love how this envelops your bathroom in a sweet, nutty cloud.

Renewal Treatment Eye Oil
£60 | Eve Lom
A dedicated eye oil might seem a little unnecessary at first but when you consider how much thinner and drier the skin is compared to the rest of your face, it makes sense. Full of squalane, ceramides and gentle botanical actives, this is reassuringly lightweight, layering beautifully with the rest of your skincare and working to help you appear noticeably fresher.

Mela B3 Double Dose
£50 | La Roche-Posay
Formulated with mature skin in mind, La Roche-Posay’s new serum takes a double-pronged approach, treating stubborn sunspots while boosting firmness.

Santal Bloom Vitamin C Oil-Infused Body Scrub
£22 | Saltair
US bodycare brand Saltair can do no wrong in our eyes and this scrub lives up to expectation.

Make Me Blush Cream
£34.40 (was £43) | YSL Beauty
When you’re looking – and feeling – a little worse for wear, cream blush is your best friend. YSL’s version is soft and silky, but feels virtually weightless. Ideal if you prefer a lighter touch when it comes to make-up. Dab it over your cheeks and melt it in with the heat of your fingertips for a fresh-looking finish.

Multi-Biotics Hand Cream
£22 | Darling
If you love hand cream, Italian suncare label Darling’s new launch is worth trying.

Restorative Skin Complex with TriHex+
£180 | Alastin
Alastin is one of those under-the-radar skincare brands insiders quietly rate.

The Lash Lengthener Mascara
£10 | Boots EDIT
Of all the new launches that land on the SL beauty desk, mascara is often one of the most disappointing categories. But if you’re after length and definition, this unassuming hero from Boots’ new EDIT line actually delivers. The slim wand is precise enough to catch each individual lash and create that pretty, fanned-out, effect. Plus, at just a tenner, it won’t break the bank.

£205 | Loewe
Loewe’s latest candle takes its cues from banoffee pie. Crafted in Spain and blending banana-amber accords with richer, caramelised depth, this beautiful vessel makes for such a unique gift – whether you’re treating your host, or even simply yourself.
