The year might be starting to end but there’s still a barrage of new grooming and skincare products waiting for you to explore. From moisturisers for your face to serums for your hair, and brands coming back to the Indian market after over a decade to brands launching new product categories, it’s all happening right now. We’ve done the hard part of putting all of it together – all you’ve got to do is go through this list and pick out your favourites to try.
We’d say all of them are worth our shot, though, because who can have enough skincare and grooming products to try anyway, right?
New Skincare, Haircare and Grooming Products
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion SPF 50
A Clinique moisturiser is almost the gold standard when it comes to skin nourishment and now, the brand’s cult favourite has been upgraded to include sun protection as well. The Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion comes with SPF 50 so you can be completely sure it’s protecting your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays while nourishing with all the moisture it needs. What’s not to love!

Lush is back in India!
In what could be termed as one of the year’s most lowkey ‘launches’, the iconic British brand Lush is back in India. For now, their website is up & running and selling products and apparently plans are on for launch of their stores as well. Lovers of all things natural and organic would remember their sweet-smelling products and pleasantly done up stores. The brand entered the Indian market in the early aughts but somewhere along the way, quietly left. It’s back for round two, now that the Indian beauty & skincare market is booming like never before!

Skinvest Resurface Anti-tan Peeling Gel
If a tan is your biggest concern, this peeling gel from Skinvest might be just the thing you’ve needed. It’s created to help remove the most stubborn sun damage-induced tan and dullness, without messing up your skin barrier, mind you. It’s got lactic acid, mild AHA that dissolves dead skin and evens out skin tone, along with a host of antioxidant-rich natural extracts, all of which sounds quite wonderful.

It’s got milk protein, hyaluronic acid and caffeine, everything your scalp needs for vitality, strength and hydration so that you have hair that’s healthy, soft and bouncing with joy.
