You must try them: 7 beauty novelties this September
The editorial staff of Wday.ru tested cosmetics and told the whole truth about them.
Stick for lips Artist Lip Blush, MAKE UP FOR EVER, 1500 rubles
Inspired by makeup artists who always powder their lips to matte lipstick texture, MAKE UP FOR EVER has released a stick with the perfect powdery matte texture. In addition to perfect coverage, the product intensively moisturizes the lips with hyaluronic acid. The three oils included in the composition guarantee easy and uniform application.
Victoria Dudina, acting editor-in-chief:
Pros: for me, packaging is 50 percent of success. The lipstick pencil fits perfectly even in a small purse and is applied to the lips with several strokes. I liked the color palette very much. Soft matte colors are in perfect harmony with the autumn landscape outside the window and are ideally combined with any clothing. Lipstick does not smudge after the first cup of coffee and can be easily removed with micellar water.
Cons: If you always finish your makeup with powder on your lips, this lipstick is for you. But I prefer products that have a more oily texture, therefore, although the creators of Artist Lip Blush provided the maximum moisturizing possible in this situation, from time to time I had a desire to apply glitter over the stick. I think I will do this from time to time, because overall I liked the lipstick.
Ice Verbena body gel, L’Occitane, 2150 rubles
The gel texture and refreshing effect of menthol gently cool the skin while incredibly hydrating. Verbena extract is a natural antioxidant, thus it protects its premature aging and also tones the skin.
Kristina Semina, editor of the “Lifestyle” column:
Pros: the tool, in my opinion, will be the perfect companion on vacation. Especially if you are going to a hot country. I advise you to use the gel immediately after sunbathing or a long stay outside during the day. It instantly fills even very dry skin with moisture, and thanks to its cooling effect it gives comfort. Another bonus: a light scent with notes of menthol, verbena and possibly other plants that remains on the body for a long time.
Cons: not found.
Moisturizing serum Aqualia Thermal, Vichy, 1456 rubles
The product makes the skin elastic, and also smoothes light wrinkles that arise from dehydration of the skin. The serum contains 15 percent of mineralizing thermal water, which strengthens intercellular bonds, and mannose moisturizes the skin and regenerates the epidermis. High molecular weight acid prevents moisture loss.
Alika Zhukova, beauty editor:
Pros: the main plus is hyaluronic acid. This ingredient actually allows moisture retention and moisturizes effectively. After applying the serum, the skin is evened out and becomes velvety, and even supple. The product has a very pleasant light aroma.
Cons: not found.
La vie est belle Happiness Limited Edition, Lancôme, 7427 rubles
The iconic French fragrance has been reinterpreted. Lancôme co-created the series with Lady Pink street art artist Sandra Fabara. La vie est belle has become a true work of art that combines street style and luxury. The composition itself has remained unchanged: notes of iris, orange blossom, jasmine absolute.
Anna Tok, editor of the He and She column:
Pros: sweet notes of caramel and praline, delicate hints of rose and vanilla in the wonderful summer aroma of La vie est belle filled my heart a few years ago. This fragrance has already become a Lancôme classic. One drop of perfume is enough to smell fragrant all day. The scent is gradually revealed on the skin, it becomes deep and unique. Perfect for cheerful and romantic girls.
Cons: not for those who don’t like sweet aromas, but this is a matter of taste. In my opinion, there are no downsides to this fragrance.
Mascara “Volume. Extreme length “mark., Avon, 319 rubles
The new mascara allows you to make eyelashes long and voluminous, all this happens thanks to elastomers – particles that have highly elastic properties. The lengthening brush allows you to paint over even the thinnest eyelashes, and the conical shape protects against clumping and clumping of eyelashes.
Olga Safonova, deputy. editor-in-chief:
Pros: A convenient brush with villi of different lengths perfectly stains all eyelashes, even the smallest ones in the corners of the eyes. The eyelashes become truly voluminous and long. During the day it keeps perfectly, does not crumble. And even in the evening you don’t turn into a tired panda with dark circles around the eyes. It is washed off with mycelial water in one go, I think this is great, especially when you paint over the eyelashes in several layers. To be honest, I thought that more than one disc would go away, but no, the mascara washes off perfectly.
Cons: for me only flat pluses. I am not bothered even by the slightly puppet effect of the eyelashes and its slightly liquid texture.
Serum for narrowing pores, Vinopure Skin Perfecting Serum, Caudalie, 2600 rubles
The serum is designed for those with oily problem skin. Thanks to natural ingredients and a high concentration of natural salicylic acid, the product helps to remove dead cells and cleanse the skin, as well as eliminate imperfections and improve skin texture. The serum is non-comedogenic, it tightens pores and relieves breakouts.
Nastya Obukhova, editor of the “Fashion” section:
Pros: serum from Caudalie is light and weightless. When applied, it melts on the skin and smells very nice of something fresh. Leaves no stickiness or film, which I consider to be a huge advantage for the gel texture. It does not completely cleanse the skin from rashes, but stops their spread throughout the face. What I especially liked is that the skin after use is not oily, but also not completely matte, that is, the serum still gives a little hydration.
Cons: this is more likely not a minus, but my personal recommendation … It is better not to use the serum on its own, but only in combination with a fluid or cream. Even oily skin needs good hydration!
Hair mask “Absolu Aura Botanica”, Kerastase Paris, 4100 rubles
As the name implies, the entire line of hair products consists of natural ingredients. Maximum – by 98 percent (the remaining two are needed so that the products smell delicious and can serve us for longer than a week). The mask is silicone-free, but designed to nourish dull and very dry hair for 96 hours.
Elena Karlina, star editor:
Pros: I’m not afraid of silicones, but still I want to fill my hair not only with cellophane, but also to heal it. I was afraid that because of the natural ingredients there would be no instant effect, but I felt that the curls were transformed when I washed off the mask. 10 minutes, and the result is smooth hair that is easy to comb, even without a wash. And my hair is exhausted with washes and lightenings, it is very difficult to cope with it! Now I want the whole line. By the way, I also really liked the thick consistency – it reminded me of peanut butter, mmm!
Cons: To be honest, I love to find fault with everything in the world. But if there is nothing to it, then we should pay tribute: the mask is beautiful.
