Another month has come and gone and our beauty roundup is back. Did you miss us? (Of course, you did!)

During October, we tried plenty of new (and new to us) skincare, makeup, haircare and body care products that we need to tell you all about immediately.

PSA: Here's what actually happens to your skin when you get a real tan. Post continues after video.

Here you’ll find reviews of the best beauty products that launched in October, as well as the products we’ve rediscovered and fallen back in love with.

Have your debit card on standby...

Paula's Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant, $38.01.

"I can't stop slathering Paula's Choice all over my face. Especially the BHA Liquid Exfoliant. My skin had a rough time transitioning from winter to spring and this is a miracle product!" - Madeleine Balkwell, Senior Content Executive.

Beauté Pacifique SuperFruit Hydrating Face Mist, $52.

"Face mists are wildy underrated IMHO. I'm loving this one from Beauté Pacifique - I leave it on my desk during the day and spritz it whenever I'm feeling dry (OFTEN). It gives my skin a big slurp of water and makes it feel hydrated, plump and happy." - Erin Docherty, Senior Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

Holme Base Primer in Bang, $65.

"I was sent this primer to trial and I can definitely say it lives up to the hype. I’ve never been a primer person because I don’t like my makeup to look too 'done' or god forbid cakey - but primers have come such a long way. I wear this on its own over SPF for a really natural glow, and find that layering it under makeup it actually makes my foundation look more bright and dewy. I’ll be purchasing it when I finish the tube for sure." - Tamara Davis, Head of Lifestyle and co-host of What Are You Wearing?

Clinique Moisture Surge 100 Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator, $68.

"I've repurchased my fave summer moisturiser in two versions. I love how light this one is, and the texture is the best. When I'm needing a bit of extra hydration for the day, I rotate to this one." - Isobel Paine, Head of MPlus.

Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer in $weet Mouth, $32.

"TikTok convinced me to buy this lip gloss and I'm so glad they did. It's super shiny, has a hint of sparkle and leaves my lips moisturised but not sticky. And the colour is STUNNING on. Fenty can do no wrong." - Charlotte Begg, Lifestyle Writer.

Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter, $65.

"I'm not much of a makeup girl but I am loving this for light coverage. Really enjoy the texture, and find it's great with just a wee bit of concealer and bronzer." - Isobel Paine, Head of MPlus.

Sol de Janeiro Bum Bum Body Scrub, $60.

"I was given this by my sister and it's so, so good. Every shower feels blissful. I've been rotating between a body oil and this and it's making my large pregnant stomach smooth AF." - Isobel Paine, MPlus.

Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask, $28.

"After many a long morning, nights and days of dry lips, I finally pulled myself to spend $28 (!!!) on the cult Laniege Lip Sleeping Mask. As it just so happens, there's a reason it is priced that way (expensive to a young person like me, please). This stuff is HEALING and deliciously scented (I got the berry flavour). It also looks like it'll last ages. Lips are worth investing in. I have learnt my lesson." - Emma Gillman, News Writer.

Rare Beauty Liquid Touch Brightening Concealer, $33.

"I'm really loving this concealer from Selena Gomez's Rare Beauty. It's creamy, non-cakey and provides really natural coverage. It's delightfully foolproof, and you can tap it on under your eyes with your fingers and it blends beautifully." - Erin Docherty, Senior Beauty Writer and co-host of You Beauty.

ModelCo Tan Water, $25.

"I am pretty pale these days and I don't always have time to do a full tan. So I got this on a whim and it has been so handy! It's clear and light and not fragrant so you just spray a bit on, rub in with a mitt and you have a little glow that lasts. So good for when you're on the go or really can't be bothered doing a full tan!" - Mikayla Floriano, Podcast Producer.

Esmi Skin Minerals Skin Shield Natural Face Sunscreen SPF 30, $45.

"I didn’t know you could get SPF with hyaluronic acid in it; that was enough of a selling point for me! I apply this to my face and neck every morning, and my skin feels protected and hydrated throughout the day. And with the bright yellow bottle on my mantle there’s no missing this step in my routine." - Tamara Davis, Head of Lifestyle and co-host of What Are You Wearing?

The Jojoba Company Australian Jojoba Oil, $19.95.

"I finally invested in jojoba oil after hearing Kelly and Leigh mention it often on the
