they say: a cream blush formula from the hailey bieber-backed brand rhode. featuring peptides and tamanu oil, the collection boasts six shades that offer a melt-on-skin, lightweight finish.
we say: there’s a lot of buzz around these blushes — and for good reason. our tester found the formula had good colour payoff, was easy to blend and build, wore nicely on skin and gave a gorgeous pop. plus, it has a one-and-done appeal, meaning our tester found it could be blended onto eyes and even lips for a quick, monochromatic makeup look. the shades piggy, a bright pink, and sleepy girl, a dusty rose, were our fast favourites.
they say: an overnight face serum featuring vitamin c and provitamin d, along with 10 per cent glycerine and jojoba ester, to restore skin’s natural moisture barrier, boost radiance and hydrate skin — while you sleep.
we say: boasting an “ultra-stable” vitamin c formula, this serum is billed as being suitable for normal to oily skin types. our tester applied a few drops nightly for two weeks and reported a noticeable improvement to the overall smoothness and moisture levels of her skin, without any irritation.

they say: a new addition to the gloss bomb collection, these lipsticks offer some lip love thanks to shea butter and vitamin e, along with a medium-pigment colour — and a whole bunch of shine.
we say: these lipsticks are a social media sensation, earning praise from beauty influencers large and small. our tester reports these glossy lipsticks live up to the praise. a quick sweep yields colour and shine, with a cushiony hydration feel. fab! two’lip kiss, a gorgeous soft peach shade, is a must try hue.
