If you love hearing about the latest beauty launches, settle in. We’ve just started a brand new #NightInWithEscentual series; Night of New Beauty. Each month, we’ll be sharing all of the best new makeup, skincare, and fragrance releases live on Instagram, and right here, on the Escentual blog.
For January, we’re starting as we mean to go on with some incredible newness from Dermalogica, Benefit, Caudalie and more…
1. #EscentualScents – Discovery Sets

Whether you love perfume or don’t know much about it, this is a new launch to take note of. #EscentualScents is Escentual’s very first own-brand launch – it’s a pretty big deal! In short, it’s a monthly fragrance discovery set that offers a unique and exciting opportunity to test new fragrances without any preconceptions. Each month the discovery set has a new theme. Not only do those who buy it get a great new hobby, but they’re also invited into an exclusive Facebook group to chat to everyone else taking part, and of course, find out what the mystery scents are at the end of the month.
2. Benefit POREFessional Super Setter

If you’re a makeup enthusiast, you may have already been anticipating this launch. Benefit has released a brand new setting spray in their POREfessional range. A cult makeup collection, one of the POREfessional Primer, sells every 9 seconds! The POREfessional Super Setter lives up to its name. Not only does it hold your makeup in place all-day (yes, I’ve tested it!), but it gives all-day hydration and on top of all that it blurs pores thanks to added pore-blurring powders. What I love most about it, however, is the fine mist it gives. Many other setting sprays are very wet and heavy, but this feels like nothing, and it’s water, smudge, and fade-proof.
3. Caudalie VinoClean Cleansers

Sustainability is on everyone’s minds at the moment. And, quite rightly so, it’s on the minds of many brands. One of the most notable eco-friendly launches we’ve seen this month is from Caudalie. The French skincare brand has repackaged its entire cleansing collection, and it’s now made from 100% recycled plastic and is fully recyclable (and still look incredibly chic!). The formulas are equally as good too – each product has a minimum 97% natural origin formula. If you’re keen to do your bit for the planet, and your skin, the range has a line-up of cleansers, toners, and exfoliators for every preference.
4. Dermologica Neck Fit Contour Serum

If you love beauty gadgets, settle in. Dermalogica has unveiled its latest product, and it’s a nifty one! The Neck Fit Contour Serum is a roll-on neck serum that delivers retinol-like results to lift, firm, and tighten. Not only does the formula work wonders for keeping your neck youthful but it feels great too – the gel instantly cools, and has a fresh, spa-like aroma that immediately relaxes you. Whether you’re worried about tech neck or signs of ageing, this is the skincare step shouldn’t be missing.
Tip: After you finish the Neck Serum keep the roll-on to use as an alternative to a jade roller!
5. Givenchy Prisme Libre Foundation

POREfessional isn’t the only cult-favourite range to unveil a new addition. Givenchy’s Prisme Libre range, which has Asia’s number 1 powder, welcomed a brand new foundation. Prisme Libre Skin-Caring Glow Foundation does what it says on the tin. The formula gives skin a natural-looking glow while providing 12-hour wear and all-day hydration. More than makeup, the base has a 97% natural origin ingredient list and contains actives that improve the skin’s quality over time.
6. Clarins Total Eye Life

It’s hard to find a powerful and effective anti-ageing eye cream if your eyes are sensitive. Well, it used to be. Clarins’ latest newcomer is the Total Lift Eye; this is a renovation of a classic product. The potent gel-cream contains a blend of plant extracts that lift, smooth and brighten the eye area. If you’re noticing signs of ageing around your peepers, and struggle to find something that doesn’t irritate, you’ve met your match.
