Beauty Insider August 2024

Big news in beauty

• Umberto Giannini (AKA the top-selling UK brand) has finally launched in Australia. Welcoming the sustainably-minded, vegan and female-led brand to Priceline is a total game-changer for everyone who loves a scented hair care range (and who doesn’t?) but even more specifically those with curly hair.
• You know when you hear of a beauty product that you just need to get your hands on? Well it turns out Bali Body’s Tanning Milk is that product. Selling out within one week of its launch the skin care-infused liquid tan amassed a waitlist of 10,000 strong. So, when you see it, grab it!
• Ella Baché have partnered with fashion house Romance Was Born to collaborate on three products with beautifully designed packing. The key three are already faves in the Ella Baché range; Special Eye Cream, Ultra Nourishing Cream and the Intensive Recovery Cream. Together the partnership hopes to nurture confidence and champions the concept of ‘in my own skin”, encouraging the realisation that everyone’s ‘healthy’ skin looks different.
• Launching on the 2nd of September is the Women’s Health Diary for 2025. All proceeds from your purchase of the diary (shop here) go directly to funding research for prevention and treatment of breast cancer. Be sure to support the fund as breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women.

The best beauty launches this month

Benefit PoreMattes

If you’re so over the ‘dewy skin look’ and are ready to bring back ultra-perfect matte makeup, then this duo is here for you. But don’t worry, just because they’re amazing at blurring pores and locking in your makeup doesn’t mean they’re not also enriched with skin-loving ingredients. Seamless makeup is just a duo away.

The POREfessional Power Powder: $68 at Myer

The POREfessional Matte Primer: $63 at Myer

JSHealth Illuminating Peptide Eye Serum

We’ll admit it, when it comes to eye products, we’ve got a serious problem. Because we need to try them all. Okay, maybe it’s a good product to have, because this latest launch from JSHealth is here to pick your peepers up with its hydrating blend of peptides and eye bag de-puffing skills.

$39.99 at JSHealth

NOUGHTY Get Set Grow Growth Tonic

If you’re ready to get on the hair growth train, hop aboard with this new launch frim Noughty. Cruelty-free and vegan the almost all natural tonic helps to support hair growth, while also maintaining your strands moisture-levels, thanks to hyaluronic acid.

$16.99 at Priceline

Justice Professional Moldable Wax

‘Slicked back bun’ is our go to style (who can be bothered to wash their hair that much?). But sometimes we need a little extra hold to keep things looking seriously sleek. So, when we heard Justice Professional had released a moldable wax, we just knew it was going to be one of those products couples would fight over sharing. Move over guys, we need it too.

Sundae Body Let’s Get Tropical

If applying sunscreen is the arduous chore (that you diligently do everyday) that you wish was just a bit more fun, we’ve got good news. And it’s from Sundae Body. Yep, the whipped foam kids on the block are expanding into sun protection. And with a whole range set to follow (keep your eyes peeled), this is the first in the widely anticipated launch.

**Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, hats, and eyewear when exposed to the sun. Prolonged sun exposure should be avoided. Frequent use and re-application in accordance with directions if required for effective sun protection.**

$35 coming to Woolworths

OPI Metallic Mega Mix Range 

Is there anything better than a fresh mani? We’ll wait. Nope? We thought so! And with these brand new Y2K inspired shimmering shades, OPI is bringing back a level of nostalgia that only certain episodes of Friends have ever managed to. The only question that remains? What shade will you be choosing?

New to bh…

Cynosure

If you’re wondering why you’ve heard about Cynosure before, we can absolutely guess it’s because of the Potenza. Absolutely loved by celebrities (Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Aniston and Brooke Shields amongst the mix), these salon-only devices are ones to keep your eyes out for.

bh recommends: Cynosure Potenza

Dr. Wolff’s V-san Intimate Wash Lotion

It’s absolutely about time that we change the conversation about women’s intimate care. Because honestly, what’s so taboo about it anyways? And with that mindset, Dr. Wolff is bringing an air of positivity to beautyheaven with their dermatologically and genecology designed products.
