We're dreaming of warmer weather this month, and we think it's obvious from our beauty favourites list that we're dreaming off far off places, and looking to keep our skin and hair as hydrated and glowy as we can in the meantime. But while we're here in the depths of the cold, the least we can do is warm up to it (pun intended) with some spicy winter diffusers from Maison Margiela or hinoki hand lotions from Le Labo. We're seeking skin-quenching hydration from Charlotte Tilbury and La Prairie, and hair restoration via David Mallett.
Check out all of our favourite beauty picks, new releases and old favourites for the month of June.
DYPTIQUE ILIO EDP
For those of us not heading off on a European summer trip this month, Dyptique has blessed us with the next best thing. Their limited-edition ILIO scent transports us to the heart of the Mediterranean, balancing notes of prickly pear, lavender and lemongrass to create an olfactory experience drenched in unspoilt sunlight.
DERMALOGICA Oil to Foam Total Cleanser
At a time of year where we're lathering and layering all of our products on top of each other to mimic that healthy summer glow, it's important to have a rock-solid cleanser on hand to get your skin back to bare at the end of the day. This oil-to-foam cleanser from Dermalogica will do just that.
DAVID MALLETT Mask No. 1 L'Hydratation
While we're busy nourishing our skin, it's easy to overlook hydrating our tresses too. This mask from David Mallet is designed to deliver maximum moisture, shine, and bounce.
CHARLOTTE TILBURY Magic Cream
At this point we trust Ms. Tilbury with our lives, so it's no surprise that we love her award-winning, best-selling moisturiser, which is supercharged with skincare ingredients to help prep and transform your skin for a glowing, dewy canvas.
CHANEL Le Vernis Nail Colour
Finding the perfect winter polish shade is tough, but Chanel never seem to miss the mark with their signature House colours. Each is formulated to deliver a flawlessly glossy, even finish.
MAISON MARGIELA By The Fireplace Diffuser
In Australia, a real fireplace is hard to come by in winter, but Maison Margiela have offered us the next best thing. Their new diffuser range will give you the same olfactory satisfaction, perfectly paired with some soft jazz music and a fireplace TV screensaver.
LA PRAIRIE White Caviar Pearl Infusion Face Serum
If ever there was a product to indulge in for the winter, La Praire's White Caviar Pearl Infusion Face Serum is it. Not only is the bottle alone a thing of beauty, the serum is designed to illuminate your skin on a molecular level. And who doesn't like the sound of that?
CHANEL Le Lift Pro Crème Volume
We're loving Chanel's new Le Lift Pro line, which corrects advanced signs of ageing by softening fine lines and reinforces skin support. Their Crème Volume moisturiser is a perfect salve for dehydrated, chapped and prematurely aged skin (plus it's formulated without fragrance).
EMMA LEWISHAM Supernatural Face Oil
Vitamin A and E oils are the real superstars behind Emma Lewisham's acclaimed face oil, which will not only smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, but strengthen the skin barrier for optimal skin hydration through these drier months.
BIOTYSPA Firming Body Oil
We are levelling up our body moisturiser to a body oil this winter, and we're currently loving the Firming Body Oil from BIOTYSPA for just that. We like to apply while skin is still just a tad damp, fresh out the shower, for the ultimate skin-quenching routine.
LE LABO Hinoki Hand Pomade
If you're searching for a different kind of winter scent, perhaps you'll agree that this hand pomade from Le Labo hits the sweet olfactory spot. The Hinoki scent is inspired by the Buddhist temples and surrounding hinoki tree forests of Mount Koya in Japan.
THE ORDINARY Glycolipid Cream Cleanser
We'll always have a soft spot for an effective and affordable cream cleanser, and The Ordinary has just released one of our new faves. It's great at removing built-up makeup, especially as a follow-up to a daily oil cleanser, and is formulated using plant-derived glycolipid cleansing agents so that your skin barrier is respected and maintained.
BYREDO Lip Balm Mangue de Tamil Nadu
Probably the coolest lip balm we've seen pop up on our radar in a long time – and from scent connoiseurs Byredo no less! Pop it in your purse for easy, on-the-go hydration for your lips. This one boasts the juicy flavour of sweet Indian mango.
FRULA Hydrating Hair Treatment Oil
Made in New Zealand, this ultra-lightweight multitasking nutrient rich hair oil contains a signature blend of Abyssinian Oil, Moringa Seed Oil, Marula Seed Oil, Jojoba Seed Oil, and Kakadu Plum Seed Extract to maximise the softness, hydration and shine of your locks.
GUCCI The Alchemist's Garden Where My Heart Beats EDP
Who ever said florals couldn't be a winter thing? Gucci's new perfume captures the essence of an unfurling spring, featuring notes of peony, violet leaves and white musk to create a blend to remind us of the allure of the spring that's to come.
SONTSE Face & Body Blending Brush
Sometimes our skin needs a little extra boost from a fake tanner in the winter, and Sontse's Kabuki blending brush is designed to achieve that flawless bronzed skin you've been missing.
