WORDS: CASEY GERARD Photographer: Jane Doe

Call to Action

Each season, we get to grips with a whole host of new beauty products that deliver incredible results. But every now and again, along comes a beauty product with serious sticking power. From YSL’s Touche Eclat to the MUA favourite Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk, these are the cult beauty products that are worth every bit of hype. Stock up quick: they always sell out.

Olaplex

1. Olaplex No.6 Bond Smoother

When it comes to haircare, Olaplex is a fairly new but wildly popular brand. Its hero product? The No.6 Bond Smoother, a leave-in treatment designed to condition, strengthen, and reduce frizz. Plus, it speeds up blow-dry time so no more mad morning rush. Simply apply to the mid-lengths and ends of the hair and let air dry for a tousled look or blow-dry for a sleek and styled look.

2. PATRICK TA DOUBLE TAKE CREME AND POWDER BLUSH

In recent years, the number of makeup artist brands has soared, but not all of them make the cut. One that does, is Patrick Ta. Top of our list? His Double Take Creme and Powder Blush. Ft. fun shades of pigmented cream and powder blushes, the packaging comes with a clever plastic protector over the cream to ensure no cross contamination. Contrary to the norm, Ta recommends applying the cream after the powder to create a creamy, dewy finish.

3. AUGUSTINUS BADER THE CREAM

The name on everyone’s lips, Augustinus Bader has become a word-of-mouth hit. With celebrity fans coming in thick, it’s landed every award going and has cemented its status as a cult beauty product. Ft. more than 40 different ingredients, it encourages the skin to heal and regenerate. The result? Fine lines are repaired, pores reduced and skin is left bouncy, smooth and like you’ve just stepped out of the best facial of your life.

4. HAIR BY SAM MCKNIGHT COOL GIRL

A relative newcomer to the world of beauty products, fashion-forward session stylist Sam McKnight has created an instant hit with his self-named brand.

NARS

5. NARS ORGASM BLUSH

The legendary blush that was first made famous in the ‘90s, NARS’ universally flattering, soft peachy pink flush is still one of the beauty world’s most loved products.

It now comes in two shades (the original and one slightly richer) to suit all skin tones.

7. ESTÉE LAUDER ADVANCED NIGHT REPAIR

If ever there was a product that everyone needs to have in their beauty cabinet, then the industry-dubbed 'ANR' is it. Recently reformulated, the super product is a hardworking blend of all the skincare big hitters: squalane, hyaluronic acid, caffeine and vit B5, to name a few. Originally designed to be applied at night when the skin naturally repairs, it soothes, moisturises and restores your skin’s natural skin barrier. No wonder Estée Lauder sells 10 bottles every minute.
