In the age of smartphones and smart homes, it's no surprise that intelligent hair tools would be next. Meet GHD Platinum+ Styler, $249, which uses predictive technology to keep its flatiron plates at an ideal — and consistent — level of heat. That translates to less damage, quicker styling and smoother, even more gorgeous results. Pretty smart, huh?
Such a brilliant idea! BareMinerals Claymates Be Pure and Be Dewy Mask Duo, $35, contains two different treatments in a dual-sided jar. On one part, there's a deep-cleaning white clay mask; on the other, a formula infused with acai and black currant. Swipe them on different parts of your face, or use one all over one day and switch to the other mask the next.
In the spirit of the season, everyone's favorite tinted lip balm just got a sweet new fall look. Fresh Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment Sunscreen SPF 15 in Spice, $24, gives a flattering, sheer rosy-brown tint that looks right at home next to your new leather jacket — or your pumpkin anything. Nothing basic about that.
For those of us with the driest complexions, colder temps can mean skin that's even more parched than usual. And that means an ordinary shower gel often won't do. Good thing Klorane Cupuacu Flower Shower Cream With Cupuacu Butter, $18, is all about being extra. It's thick and rich, loaded with cupuacu butter (an ingredient even more moisturizing than shea) and it won't strip precious moisture away from your delicate skin.
We think of Chanel Rouge Allure Liquid Powder, $30, as a kinder, gentler matte lipstick. Squeeze the tube and a thin liquid oozes out from the sponge-tip. It's slippery enough that you'll get excellent coverage as you glide the silky formula over your lips, but it dries down quickly to a soft, barely-there feel. Add a little for a sheer effect or pile it on for a more intense look.
