Looking to lift your beauty game for clearer, flawless, younger looking skin? Here’s what’s new in beauty.
In case you missed it, we road test a lot of beauty products here at Bondi Beauty. From skincare to makeup, and nails to hair, we are eyebrow deep in all things new in beauty.
This results in a lot of oohing and ahhing amongst the team, as we experiment with new products and pick our favourites.
Including the fabulous new nail range by O.P.I inspired by the new Barbie movie, set to air in our cinemas on July 20th – can we share a woohoo of excitement?!
The outcome of trying out so many beauty products is that we can easily identify if a hair oil is too heavy, or if a face serum gives just the right amount of hydration and for what skin type.
If we find a new product that is just wow, we can’t wait to spread the word, and share it amongst our fellow beauty enthusiasts.
Here are 10 products new in beauty we just can’t get enough of:
