Throughout the final quarter of 2023, plenty of notable products came to market. Practicality and ease of use were common themes as Hally introduced the Brow Pal, and Lip Lab debuted the Sketch & Shade Precision Cream Lip Liner. Products that ignited the senses were also popular, as demonstrated by No Noses Inc.’s Crumb Couture candle and Whind’s Marrakech Silk Exfoliating Jelly Body Balm. Outlining the best of Q4, BeautyMatter highlights the products that caught our editorial team's attention:
Sophie Pitt, Editorial Associate:
“The 7 Virtues Cherry Ambition stood out to me in Q4. Aside from enjoying the nose-provoking scent, the message of the product captured my interest. I like that the fragrance is positioned as the ‘scent of success,’ encouraging wearers to wear it when they hope to succeed; making the product and its brand one that consumers turn to with memories of achievement and pride. Peace Out Skincare’s Early Stage Acne Dot was a stand-out for me. As a big lover of acne dots on the whole, I like that products are now coming into play that help to tackle the issue promptly, as opposed to once the acne has surfaced. No Noses Crumb Couture Candle brings food and beauty back to the point of conversation once again. Having always loved croissants and the scent of a bakery, nothing makes more sense to me than to turn this scent into a candle; I strongly enjoy being able to make my apartment smell of croissants 24/7. Finally, I enjoyed Hally’s Brow Pal as it significantly reduced the time it takes to do a full face of makeup, and now a good eyebrow day can last me almost a week—it's a win–win.”
