MAC Cosmetics
Spring hasn't quite sprung yet, but it's only a matter of time before the warm weather (finally) settles in. In the meantime, it only makes sense to update your beauty routine accordingly. Think: vibrant colors, brightening formulas, and of course, sunscreen. (If you're spending more time outside, you gotta up your SPF application.)
From MAC to Valentino Beauty, brands have created a memorable springtime lineup of beauty launches this month. Ready to embrace spring for all its worth? We've rounded up March's best launches, perfect for sprucing up your regular makeup, skincare, and haircare routines.
Read on for the best new March beauty launches.
Clark's Botanicals
Clark's Botanicals just launched its 7-Acid Daily Glow Peel. The clinically tested exfoliant contains four AHAs: 10% lactic acid to improve texture, 4% glycolic acid to slough away dead skin cells, 3% malic acid to fade discoloration, and 8% citric acid to help visibly reduce signs of photodamage and promote skin cell turnover. The Daily Glow Peel is also loaded with a 2% salicylic acid blend (BHA) to unclog pores and a 3% gluconolactone acid blend (PHA) to help exfoliate, retain moisture, and reduce redness. Hyaluronic acid rounds out the formula, helping to hydrate and plump your skin.
e.l.f.
Hot off their viral Superbowl ad featuring Jennifer Coolidge, e.l.f. has launched the Sticky Merch Shop celebrating the brand's beloved Power Grip Primer. The collection includes a hat and varsity jacket with velcro grips to decorate with the included patches in any way you choose, inspired by Mario Lopez's style in Saved by the Bell—in fact, Lopez appears in a video wearing the merch himself. There's also a dolphin-themed slime, in a nod to the "dolphin skin" effect the primer gives users. To celebrate the drop, e.l.f. is donating $100,000 to the the Whale and Dolphin Conservation, and proceeds from the merch shop up to $25,000 will be donated as well.
