The Beauty Radar: September

Sisley’s newest serum is more than just skincare – it’s a deep dive into skin longevity. Powered by cutting-edge science and backed by extensive clinical testing, Longevity Essential Serum targets not just the signs of ageing, but the biological processes behind them. It reactivates communication between the skin’s cutaneous, vascular and immune systems, boosts cellular regeneration, and visibly improves firmness, density, and radiance. Expect fewer wrinkles, a more lifted facial contour, and that elusive lit-from-within glow.

Huda Beauty has expanded its Easy Bake family with a clever duo that combines brightening pink and colour-correcting peach. Available in ‘Cherry Peach’ for lighter tones and ‘Pink Pumpkin’ for deeper complexions, each silky powder blurs pores, absorbs oil and sets make-up for up to 18 hours. The innovative pack lets you use each shade individually or mix them together for a custom brightening effect.

Gisou’s cult Honey Infused Lip Oils have become a staple and this season the brand has added three new shades to its line-up: ‘Vanilla Glaze’, ‘Sticky Toffee’ and ‘Milky Mocha’. Each offers a sheer milky tint with high-shine payoff, but never the stickiness. Infused with Mirsalehi Honey, hyaluronic acid and a blend of nourishing oils, the formula hydrates, plumps and smooths lips while leaving them glazed and glossy. Wear them alone for a wash of colour or layer on top of lipstick for extra dimension – either way, they’re set to be autumn’s go-to.

The shimmer-in-gel technology melts into the skin for a radiant glow that lasts, whether applied with fingers for intensity or a brush for a softer sheen. Pair with the new Dior Addict Lip Maximizer shades, which match each palette, for a complete backstage-worthy look.

Long loved by skincare insiders, Biologique Recherche’s VIP O2 line has had a 2025 refresh – and it’s more targeted, high-performance and physiologically respectful than ever.

From the silky Lait VIP O2 cleanser to the revitalising Crème Contour des Yeux, every formula boosts hydration, radiance and skin texture without overloading. There’s even a shampoo and body emulsion in the lineup.

Setting sprays don’t usually get much attention, but Laura Mercier’s Ultra-Blur is set to change that. Infused with skincare ingredients including hyaluronic acid, niacinamide and antioxidant-rich ectoin, it locks make-up in place for 24 hours while hydrating and protecting the skin. The micro-fine mist feels refreshing and weightless, never tight or sticky, while instantly blurring imperfections for a flawless finish. Think of it as the final step that keeps make-up looking freshly applied all day, with the added benefits of skincare built in.
