22 Exciting New Beauty Launches You Need to Try This May

"No, this is not a new product — just a cooler version of the one you already probably use and love. NARS cult-favorite peach-pink Orgasm blush has a limited-edition makeover ($39). Both the case and the powder are accented with this chic, summery woman (it is a clear film photo that sits on top of the powder and is removed when you use the pigment). The mirror inside of the compact is also printed with the hashtag #whatmakesyoublush. NARS junkies (like me!), you need this. It is available at NARS boutiques and ecommerce in May and then at Sephora and select department stores in July." — Lauren Levinson, senior editor, Beauty

"I am a devoted Mario Badescu Drying Lotion fan, so it takes a lot for me to try other blemish-fighting products. But I love Skyn Iceland and decided to give the Blemish Dots ($20) a whirl. They contain salicylic acid, a must for cutting down inflammation. After your moisturize at night, make sure your skin isn't slick — then adhere a dot on top of the blemish. Peel off the spot in the morning and you'll notice the size and redness have diminished signficantly! It beats having a bunch of spots on your face, and you don't have to worry about bleaching your clothes or pillowcase, either." — Kirbie Johnson, host and producer, Beauty Junkie and Pretty Unfiltered

"I tweeze and thread my brows more often than I should. And as a result, my naturally decent arches have lost some body in areas, leaving me with sparse patches. I practically hoard eyebrow enhancers to fill in thin spots, and this Brow Shaper from Soap and Glory ($9) is the latest addition to my collection. The pencil is thick enough to eliminate spending minutes drawing on strokes but precise enough to fill in tough spots. Its taupe hue has a hint of brown and works well on dark hairs without creating an overdrawn cast. On the flipside of this pencil is a highlighter crayon that I swipe on to enhance my arch. The creamy color leaves a nice sheen and is especially flattering after a fresh brow job." — Aimee Simeon, editorial assistant, trending and social

"My natural hair texture is typically a tight, defined curl. But after years of blowouts and hot-tool usage, my pattern has transformed into a loose wave. Although I typically wear my strands straight or in various braids and buns, sometimes letting my natural strands roam free is quite liberating. I’ve been recently using the DevaCurl Delight Low-Poo cleanser and conditioner ($22) to help manage my wavy strands. Both hair potions are sulfate-, paraben-, and silicone-free. The shampoo provides a mild lather to help remove any buildup from the scalp without stripping any natural oils from your strands. And unlike conditioners for curlier hair, this formula goes on like a lightweight cream leaving your curls soft and light as a feather." — AS

"I'll admit it: I can have a very puffy face. The morning after two glasses of wine or some salty sushi and I look balloon like. Chanel's latest innovation is a very small but powerful (and easy-to-use) tool that has been a savior for this problem. The Le Lift Firming Anti-Wrinkle Massage Accessory ($45) is a two-piece set that clips together. The cooling black metal feels refreshing against the skin and can be used to increase circulation, depuff, and help products (such as the Le Lift Firming Anti-Wrinkle Mask) to sink in better. I love that it is small enough to throw in any travel bag — or even my pocket! And if I put it in the fridge before using, it is heavenly." — LL

"I have a confession: I hate using conditioner. When I incorporate hydrating formulas into my hair care regimen, my superfine strands lose volume and look greasy. However, when the folks at Goldwell urged me to give their newest conditioner ($30, available at your local Goldwell salon) a go, I begrudgingly obliged — and was immediately hooked. The unusual formula sprays out of the can like a shaving cream, resulting in an airy, whipped formula that lightly nourishes hair without weighing it down. Keratin and elastin add strength and body to every strand, so my mane looks healthy, glossy, and, most importantly, full after every blowout." — EO

"My secret to healthy hair has always been oil. I use it on wet strands, dry ones, and before I got on a plane to keep my locks hydrated. I have my trusted favorites, so it's difficult for new brands to break into my hair care clique, but Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Oil ($38) has managed to do it. The formula has all of the elements I look for in a serum: nourishing, fuzz-fighting, smoothing, and fast-absorbing, and it smells divine." — LL

"I can't help it: I like to look tan! Naturally, this made me gravitate to the Take Me to TANtego ($30) Tantalizer Bronzer Palette from Lorac's new Summer launches. This quad includes both shimmer and matte bronzer options, so you can contour your face and catch the light when it hits it. I use Tan Diego on my cheekbones and Tan Antonio and Cabo Tan Lucas as a blush. I also love to play with the latter and Tanta Cruz on my eyes! Together, they create the ultimate just-came-back-from-vacation glow." — KJ

"I love how the Guerlain Terracotta L'eau Halee ($54) feels on my face. It's so thin that I don't even notice that I've put the cooling bronzing water on. I can wash the bronze glow it gives me off with cleanser at night and the bottle is pretty enough that I want to keep it out on my vanity." — SS

"When I search through the drugstore aisles for complexion products, I rarely find one that matches my ultrafair yet neutral complexion. CoverGirl's new BB Cream ($8, available May 12) does this flawlessly and hides under-eye circles, blemishes, and redness with finesse. The oil-free formula also contains a special powder technology that keeps my T-zone matte all day — essential as weather gets warmer and my skin gets greasier!" — EO

"Surprise, I'm back with more Fresh favorites! I'm never disappointed with a Fresh product. They don't irritate my skin, they do what they say they're going to do, and they always smell delightful (re: not overwhelming). The Peony Brightening Moisture Face Cream ($72) is a dream cream. Many night moisturizers are too heavy to wear during the day, but this one absorbs into the skin quickly, so it looks great under makeup. And it gets the job done if you're looking to brighten your skin while drenching it in moisture. Before applying that, though, I layer the Rose Deep Hydration Face Serum ($55) underneath." — KJ

"I have very high standards when it comes to both efficacy and scents of products. I'm obsessed with this texturizing hair spray ($7) because it gives my superstraight strands a tousled appearance (with hold!) as well as a fresh, fruity scent. The fact that I can grab it at the drugstore for under $10 is a major bonus." — EO

"I've been a face mist devotee ever since I got a whiff of the Caudalie beauty elixir. So I was particularly excited to try the new Pure Serum Mist from Skin Inc ($55, available May 2016). Unlike other sprays made simply to refresh your face and set your makeup, this innovative liquid acts as a booster to your favorite serum. The sleek bottle contains Japanese Onsen water, a local treasure known for soothing irritation and redness. It is also packed with small molecules of hyaluronic acid and glycerin to firm and hydrate your pores. After your normal cleansing routine, spritz some of this on to your face and follow with your serum and moisturizer. Your skin will instantly feel more radiant and rejuvenated." — AS
