"If you're a gal with a sweet tooth, this one's for you. With notes of juicy berries, sugar, mint and a hint of plastic doll (!), this limited edition candle sweeps you right back to the dreamy, fun, playfulness of childhood. It's sweet, fruity and the reusable glass jar is a Barbie collector's dream." – Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer. 

Endota Clove & Mint Recovery Balm, $50.

"Being hunched over a computer five days a week means my neck and shoulders are constantly aching. This stuff is instant relief. I apply it while working from home and every night before bed. The peppermint and menthol distract my brain from the pain and really calms everything down. Seriously, it's a game-changer if you get aches. I'm almost done with this tube and will be onto another one, stat." – Charlie Begg, Senior Lifestyle Writer.

Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Cheek Duo Mini Palette, $50.

"I recently got the Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Cheek Duo Mini Palette in desert retreat. It's the combination of some of their best-selling bronzers and blushes (I got the 'Caramel' bronzer and 'Terra' blush). I forgot how great the Hoola bronzers are, especially since I put sooo much on. They're so buttery and blend like a dream." – Shannen Findlay, Editorial Assistant.

Revlon Illuminance Skin-Caring Foundation, $42.95.

Image: Supplied

"I’m obsessed with this foundation, it’s the best I’ve used for the price point. It leaves your skin feeling and looking hydrated, with the most beautiful glow. I find the shade match has been perfect and I think it’s a decent dupe to some of the more expensive foundations." – Isabelle Dolphin, Editorial Driver.

MCoBeauty Super Glow Bronzing Drops, $32.

"I got these bronzing drops recently and they make me look so glowy. You can add it to your moisturiser but I like to use it on my eyelids and cheekbones as an eyeshadow and contour." – Bella Garrido, Social Media Producer.

Moroccanoil Night Body Serum, $96.

"Okay, but this body serum is BEAUTIFUL. The perfect winter pal for scaly, neglected limb skin, it has that classic, delicious Moroccanoil scent and makes everything feel instantly smoother and softer. Plus, it's delightfully non-greasy." –  Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer.

KVD Good Apple Full-Coverage Transfer-Proof Vegan Serum Foundation, $60.

Image: Supplied

"A month ago, I had two bottles of the Good Apple full-coverage serum foundation by KVD Beauty. Now, I've had to order another bottle because they've both been taken by my family who are just as obsessed as I am. If you have drier skin, it might not be the one for you but as someone who loves full-coverage makeup that feels light, blends easily and lasts foreverrr (truly, it lasts forever), then you should get a bottle for yourself! It's become my 'holy grail'." –  Shannen Findlay, Editorial Assistant.

Robe Haircare The Fragrance, $89.99.

"Please meet Robe Haircare – an Aussie start-up by celebrity hairstylist Lauren Mackellar. It's a range of luxury personalised haircare products that are all about celebrating your natural hair, quirks and all. This is my current obsession out of the bunch: The Fragrance. It's a clean, fresh scent (with notes like bergamot, lemon zest and juniper) and it makes your hair smell seriously AMAZING." – Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer. 

CeraVe Daily Moisturising Lotion, $16.99.

Image: Supplied.

"This gentle and soothing tub of CeraVe is a lifesaver. My skin has been very sensitive following some retinol skin barrier drama, so using simple but effective products has been so so helpful." – Isabella Ross, News Writer.

Vegamour Gro Revitalizing Shampoo and Conditioner, $79 each.

Image: Supplied.

"Hello, new favourite shampoo and conditioner! This brand recently launched in Australia (Sephora) and has a range of active plant-based products. These include Karmatin™, a vegan alternative to keratin, and I've noticed post-wash that my hair is shinier, hydrated and far less frizzy." – Charlie Begg, Senior Lifestyle Writer. 

Dermal Therapy Lip Balm, $6.49.

Image: Supplied

"My favourite new lip balm! This came recommended by a friend as the only solution to chapped winter lips and she was 100 per cent correct. I absolutely love it and find its moisturising power sticks around for ages, so you don’t have to constantly reapply." – Elfy Scott, Executive Editor.

Emma Lewisham Supernatural Face Oil, $145.

Image: Supplied

"Emma Lewisham has dropped a brand new product – and YES it's good. With 15 scientifically-backed ingredients, including bakuchiol, it's a next-generation vitamin A treatment that works to boost collagen and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Basically, a non-retinol product that acts like retinol. It's a beautiful formula that feels nourishing and soaks into your skin instantly." – Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer.

OXX Make Me Blush, $4.

Image: Supplied

"I've got one for frugal queens... KMART OXX BLUSH IN PEONY. I'm very much in my blush era which means I will try to (usually) buy any affordable blush I find. This one works a treat: it blends well, it's super pigmented. I only need one swipe on my apples for a nice rosy glow." – Tara Watson, Entertainment Content Producer.

Makeup By Mario Softsculpt Bronzer, $50, and Makeup By Mario Softsculpt Transforming Skin Enhancer, $49.

"I bought these products for myself, my bestie and now my sis, that's how much I'm loving them. I originally got the idea as Sofia Richie wore both these products on her wedding day, and looked amazing." – Casey Guth, Sales Manager.

SkinStitut Laser Aid, $54.

Image: Supplied.

"Whether it’s for after my laser treatment or as a vitamin-rich moisturiser, I’ve been loving this SkinStitut Laser Aid product that I picked up last month. Smells good, it leaves the skin feeling really hydrated, and it’s a decent price." – Isabella Ross, News Writer. 

Go To Gentle Exfoliator Lactic Acid and PHA Toner, $40.

Image: Supplied

"Some very good news: Everyone's favourite skincare brand launched a new range of exfoliating toners that are as gentle as they are effective. There's three different types to choose from – Gentle, Clarify and Glow. I got my hands on the Gentle exfoliator – and it has shifted my dull skin into a bright, happy, glowing good time. It's definitely staying in my routine." – Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer. 

Milani Color Fetish Shine Lipstick Roleplay, $19.99.

"This Milani lipstick in the shade 'roleplay'. It's the perfect red and has made me a lipstick person again. So hydrating too. My lips don't peel or dry out and its super long wearing. AND a chemist find too! A+." – Kee Reece, Content Manager – Commercial and Podcast Host.

L'Occitane Almond Shower Oil, $39.

Image: Supplied.

"I forgot how good this is!!! Hydrating in winter and smells like a dream. It's honestly the number one product I would recommend anyone to buy themselves if they need a pick-me-up." – Charlie Begg, Senior Lifestyle Writer.

"I use it every day and it literally stays on all day. I even got drenched in the rain, rubbed my eyes and it still looked perfect." – Christina Aguilar, Senior Commercial Video Producer.

Sand & Sky Anti-Aging Eye Cream, $52.

Image: Supplied

"It's true. Good things do come in small (orange) packages. This newbie launched a month ago and sold out within three weeks (!!!), thanks to a viral TikTok. With a vitamin C and peptide blend, this is just the ticket for brighter, more hydrated and smoother under eyes. It's back in stock now, so get your hands on it!" – Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer.

Rare Beauty Liquid Blush, $41.

"I might be late to the train but loving Rare Beauty Liquid Blush... just don't use too much its so pigmented! Will last for ages!" – Emeline Gazilas.

Charlotte Tilbury Glow Toner, $76, and Collagen Superfusion Facial Oil, $100.

Image: Supplied

"This combo has changed my skin. I had never tried Charlotte Tilbury skincare before but now I'm wondering why. The toner is hydrating and leaves a glow (hence the name) and the oil is luxe. I use the toner in both the morning and evenings and the oil at night. My texture has improved, I have far fewer breakouts and my skin is balanced. Love, love, love." – Charlie Begg, Senior Lifestyle Writer. 

Dermeren Expert Pro IPL Elevate, $689.

"This IPL handset from Dermeren is about to get a serious workout. I've only used it a few times but I can already tell we're going to be best friends. I love how small, compact and lightweight it is, and it comes with a whopping nine different intensity modes. Here's to my legs not feeling like a cactus come summer!" – Erin Docherty, Senior Health and Beauty Writer.
