The 7 New Products You'll Flip For in August

The best from Marc Jacobs' fab new Beauty collection, a revamped cult favorite from Clinique, and more
Adam Levine's fiancé, Behati Prinsloo, has a major conflict on her hands. You see, Levine created the un-celebrity fragrance (which he's seriously serious about), but Prinsloo is the face of the new Victoria's Secret scent, Victoria. As if picking a perfume wasn't a tricky enough ordeal without adding relationship politics to the mix. I've smelled both and, sorry Adam, I'm on Team Behati, er, Victoria.



I discovered Klorane Dry Shampoo in 2005, when I spent waaay to much time out 'til the wee hours. I ordered a massive box of the stuff and kept it stashed it under my desk for those mornings when I rolled in feeling like road kill (a clean-looking head of hair can cover a world of sins -- at least from a distance).

I never thought there was room for improvement for my favorite dry shampoo, but the French scientists at Klorane found a way. The new version contains nettle, an ingredient that regulates your scalp's oil production. Instead of just absorbing the oil slick on your unwashed scalp, now you can prevent it.

I know what you're thinking: "This lotion isn't new." But do you see the little plus sign on the bottle? It's so small, but it means so much. The best-selling lotion in America has been revamped -- and now, it's DDML Plus -- with added hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and urea. The new formula is twice as moisturizing. Yes, double. Devoted fans will love it even more, and those of us who felt it wasn't hydrating enough (guilty) will definitely notice the difference.

Every month, we feature our favorite new products in one easy-to-use shopping cheat sheet. The most amazing new mascara, a hairspray that will change your life, the newest face-saving serum -- we zero in on the products we know everyone will be talking about.

This month, we're taking a different route. We're highlighting August launches that everyone is already talking about. Take the Marc Jacobs Beauty collection. We've written about it three, oh, maybe four times, and here it is again -- because it's that big.

August is generally a quiet month for beauty launches -- brands hold out for September to capitalize on the "back to school" shopping blitz. Which is why some major launches are hitting shelves this August -- because they don't want to share the spotlight.
