The best beauty launches of April 2023

We’ve done the hard work for you! Here we round up the best of the new beauty launches from April 2023…

Hello Sunday The Illuminating One Glow Primer, £22

A fabulous multitasker, its SPF50 provides broad-spectrum protection from damaging UVA and UVB rays, as well as pollution and blue light. It also contains brightening vitamin C, hydrating hyaluronic acid and subtle illuminating particles, giving skin a just-back-from-holiday glow.

Mac Hyper Real Skincare, from £28

We’re super impressed with Mac’s new Hyper Real skincare collection. Designed to create the perfect canvas for make-up application, there’s a serum, cleansing oil and – our favourite – the SkinCanvas Balm Moisturising Cream, £52. Containing skin-perfecting hyaluronic acid, ceramides and niacinamide, it sits beautifully on the skin.

Bobbi Brown Pretty Powerful x Never Fully Dressed Collection, £55

Proceeds from this Bobbi Brown/Never Fully Dressed collab go to the Smart Works charity, providing coaching and clothing for unemployed women to get them back on their feet. It contains a lip and cheek shade, mascara, moisturiser and primer, and eye shadow stick.

Pai Hyaluronic Acid Booster, £19

If your skin tends to lean towards the drier side, a daily humectant can help to lessen moisture loss. Adding a few drops of this dinky hyaluronic acid booster – which contains different sizes of hyaluronic acid molecules to ensure maximum hydration – to your daily routine will ensure skin is comfortable.

Byoma Melting Balm Cleanser, £14.99

Containing olive, sea buckthorn and grapeseed oil, this buttery balm feels much more luxurious than its modest price tag. There’s niacinamide in there too, one of our favourite skincare ingredients, which works to calm down stressed out skin. Packaging is refillable, and fully recyclable.
