New beauty: April’s best buys
The latest launches from the brands you love
Chantecaille Future Skin Gel Foundation
Much-loved French brand Chantecaille (pronounced shan-te-kai) has landed at John Lewis. Its luxurious skincare and makeup formulas are derived from natural botanical ingredients – the oil-free gel foundation with a refreshing, lightweight texture and a unique formula made of 60% water is not to be missed. Even better, Chantecaille is kind to the planet – its Beauty With Impact products help support environmental causes.
Estée Lauder Pure Colour Melt-On Glosstick
Exclusive to John Lewis, Estée Lauder’s lip gloss sticks coat lips with a liquid glaze, lending them a mirrorglass-like shine and plumping effect. Unlike traditional sticky glosses, this formula is ultra-hydrating and provides lush, pillowy comfort (and brilliant light reflection). There are eight shades to complement the natural lip tone, offering buildable sheer to medium coverage with each click.
Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Beauty Soulmates Blush Palette
Fall in love with Charlotte Tilbury’s new heart-shaped Pillow Talk Face Palette. One half holds the brand’s Airbrush Flawless Finish powder, the other its bestselling blusher. This powder-blush duo, available in Flawless Peach or Flawless Pink, offers – you guessed it – a flawless finish. But seriously, skin looks healthy, smooth and soft. Love.
Yves Saint Laurent Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss
Take a shine to YSL’s new Loveshine Plumping Lip Oil Gloss. Available in 10 juicy shades, the gloss provides a luscious, glassy shine as well as up to 24 hours of hydration, leaving lips looking plumped, bouncy and irresistibly glossy. Better still, the oil-infused formula – featuring hyaluronic acid, fig pulp, plus stimulating ginger and pepper oils – offers intense lip care.
Clinique Moisture Surge Active Glow Serum
The trusted brand is back with a new lightweight, oil-free, milky formula that exfoliates, hydrates and brightens. Clinique’s Moisture Surge Active Glow Serum is made with 5 per cent lactic acid, hyaluronic acid and vitamin C, but it’s still suitable for all skin types. Use three drops on clean skin, twice a day (morning and night) for skin that looks plump and glowy.
Lancôme Rénergie C.R.x. Triple Serum Retinol
Lancôme is rethinking retinol. How? For the first time, it’s combining pure retinol with brightening pure vitamin C and soothing X-peptide, creating a skin-renewing, triple-dose formula in one single bottle. And, great news: even with the three high-performance actives, the creamy textured serum is gentle, non-irritating and suitable for all tones and skin types (including sensitive). Apply at night and let your skin drink it in.
