The Beauty Radar: March
THE FRUITY FRAGRANCE
Jo Malone English Pear
Jo Malone London is putting English pear front and centre this season with two scents that offer different takes on the same fruit. First, there’s English Pear & Freesia – the brand’s cult classic – which layers the juicy fruit with creamy, delicate white florals and grounding patchouli. Joining it is English Pear & Sweet Pea, a newer, lighter interpretation which spotlights airy sweet pea and powdery musk. While both lean fruity, neither feels remotely adolescent; instead, they capture that idyllic, sunlit orchard feeling. The campaign stars sisters Georgia May and Lizzy Jagger – a fitting duo for what the brand calls its ‘sister scents’.

THE BODILY RESET
Grown Alchemist Body Treatments
Cult Australian skincare label Grown Alchemist is now turning its attention to the body. Available to book at the brand’s Beak Street store, the treatment menu is designed with modern lifestyles in mind, blending hands-on techniques with its new, targeted bodycare. Choose from lymphatic drainage delivered using a specially designed gua sha tool to boost circulation and reduce water retention, or the Urban De-Stress which relieves built-up muscle tension through myofascial and pressure point work – a lifesaver if you sit at a desk all day. Trust us, you’ll leave feeling lighter and lifted.

THE COOL-GIRL MAKE-UP
Chanel Denim
Leaning into denim’s rule-breaker spirit, Chanel’s latest limited-edition collection goes against the grain, transforming the hardy, everyday fabric into an unexpected make-up concept. At first glance, icy blue illuminators and Cinderella-grade pearlescent balms might feel a little too editorial for everyday wear, but we’re firm converts. The powders can be applied sparingly for a soft-wash effect, or dialled up for greater impact. Subtle nods to denim’s timeless appeal run throughout – look out for embossed stitch detailing and chic keepsake pouches that make the pieces feel even more collectible.

THE UNMISSABLE COLLAB
Anya Hindmarch x Boots
High-street stalwart Boots has teamed up with British accessories designer Anya Hindmarch to create an affordable edit of bathroom basics, which previously you could only get your hands on via London’s Anya Village concept store. Now available online, the collection combines Boots’ trusted formulations with Hindmarch’s trademark playfulness. Priced between £5 and £10, the line-up includes everything from make-up sponges and mini tweezers to bath salts and lip balm – making it easy to add a little fun into your everyday routine without breaking the bank.

THE TOP-TIER CROSSOVER
Estée Lauder x Diane von Furstenberg
Beauty giant Estée Lauder has teamed up with visionary Belgian designer Diane von Furstenberg on the InCharge collection, a three-piece edit that champions confidence and individuality. Focusing on grab-and-go staples, there are buttery-soft blush sticks and silky lip oils as well as the Essence d’Eau – a distinctive ambery-floral, water-based fragrance, designed to feel lighter and more fluid on the skin. Each piece is wrapped in DVF’s signature Cloud Patch print – a graphic cloud motif inspired by the movement of water – giving the collection a bold, fashion-forward finish.

THE WELLNESS HAVEN
Six Senses
If you’re in the mood for some calm, head to Six Senses. Newly opened inside Bayswater’s The Whiteley, the space delivers on every front. Fitness fanatics can soothe aching muscles by taking a dip in London’s first hotel magnesium pool or try the dedicated biohacking lounge, which houses everything from cryotherapy chambers and red-light beds to flotation therapy – all designed to help you recharge on a cellular level. Alongside advanced technologies, you can also book in for restorative massages and glow-boosting facials but perhaps the most interesting offering is Six Senses’ apothecary-inspired Alchemy Bar where you can explore the power of plants and create your own botanical blends.

THE SCENT OF SPRING
Trudon Figuerie
If you’re ready to welcome the new season with open arms, switch up your fragrance in favour of something fresher. Inspired by the fig trees that grow in the royal kitchen gardens of Versailles, Trudon’s Figuerie captures that first hint of spring, when the leaves are bathed in sunlight. Crisp fig and leafy notes combine with a woody undercurrent, forming a clean, verdant blend. From showstopper candles and reed diffusers to elegant room sprays – all are presented in the brand’s signature glass vessels that are chic enough to display long after the scent has faded.
