Summer is officially within our reach. You know what that means: beach days, European vacations, outdoor dining, sundresses, the works. To fully embrace the warm weather, there are some necessary changes in our beauty routines that need to be made. It's time to head to the store to pick up a new bottle of SPF (because it expires) , swap your rich moisturizer for a lightweight formula that won't break you out, and rotate in some berry makeup shades. It may also be time to break out the self tanner, find the perfect bright red nail polish shade to live out your Italian summer dream, grab a freckle pen to fake the cute spots across your notes without the sun damage – you get the idea.
Luckily, there are plenty of new beauty products launching this June from your favorite to explore and our editors have been putting them to the test so that you know what's worth hitting that "add to cart" button on. We've fallen in love with new formulas across all categories — hair, makeup, skin, and body — and all price points, from luxurious moisturizers to splurge on to an affordable mascara that we can't put down. To get the scoop on the best new beauty launches for June, keep reading.
POPSUGAR Photography | Jessica HarringtonBest Lip Balm
Kylie Cosmetics Cloud Balm ($21)
"The Kylie Cosmetics Cloud Balm may just look like your typical lip balm, but something about its oversized shape is so satisfying to use. The formula itself is super hydrating and long-lasting, providing hours of comfort." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
dermstore.comBest Eye Cream
iS Clinical GeneXC Firming Eye Gel ($130)
"If you've been searching for an eye cream that will make your under eyes feel (and look) like you just left the spa, look no further than the iS Clinical GeneXC Firming Eye Gel. I'm a huge fan of iS clinical, and this eye cream might just make it onto my list of top favorites from the brand. It's clinically formulated with two forms of vitamin C to firm and brighten the undereye zone, and hyaluronic acid to keep things moisturized and smooth." — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
POPSUGAR Photography | Jessica HarringtonBest Matte Lipstick
Hourglass Phantom Smoothing Blur Lip Balm ($38)
"I'm obsessed with Hourglass's Glossy Lip Balm — I've used my last tubes to the last drop — but the brand's new Phantom Smoothing Blur Lip Balm blew me away. I thought I swore off matte formulas, but this gel-based formula goes on smoothly and is non-drying. It leaves behind the perfect diffused lip." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
Best Lip Gloss
Victoria Beckham Posh Gloss ($33)
"I'm normally not a colored lippie kind of girl, I usually opt for clear glosses and a lip liner. However, when I tried the Victoria Beckham Posh Gloss in Cabana for the first time, I was immediately sold. It enhances my lips in the perfect way without leaving them feeling sticky or dry. Plus, it comes in ten different shades so you can easily find your perfect match." — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
POPSUGAR Photography | Jessica HarringtonBest Mascara
Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky Tubes Tubing Mascara ($12)
"As someone who refuses to use waterproof formulas, I count on tubing mascaras; all other formulas will run under my eyes, no matter what brands claim. The new Maybelline Lash Sensational Sky Tubes Tubing Mascara lengthens and lifts without flakes or clumps. And you can't beat the price." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
POPSUGAR Photography | Jessica HarringtonBest Lip Stain
Urban Decay Lip Toy ($24)
"I can't express this enough: the Urban Decay Lip Toy is so freaking good. The oil gloss stain hybrid goes on like a high-shine gloss, leaving your lips looking next-level juicy. The stain comes into play after the glassy finish wears off, giving your lips a wash of color that lasts hours." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
jouercosmetics.comBest Eyeshadow
Jouer Cosmetics Paris Lights Eye Paints ($27)
"I've never really been an eyeshadow girl, but the Jouer Cosmetics Paris Lights Eye Paints might just paint that. They're metallic liquid eyeshadow paints that are easy to blend and make it look like you actually know how to do your makeup, even if you don't. They come in five different shades, each one better than the last!" — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
POPSUGAR Photography | Jessica HarringtonBest Blush
Benefit Cosmetics Juice Stick Dewy Gel-Cream Blush ($34)
"The Benefit Cosmetics Juice Stick Dewy Gel-Cream Blush is pretty much perfect. It comes in a stick, making it great for all of the summer travel plans you have around the corner, it leaves behind a beautiful stain of color long after you first apply it, and it has a faint pearlescent sheen for extra glow." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
amazon.comBest Shampoo
Stmnt Grooming Goods Hydro Shampoo ($35)
"If you want to level up your boyfriend's shower game (or if you just want a product that actually works), allow me to introduce you to the Stmnt Grooming Goods Hydro Shampoo. Not only can it be used on hair and beards (it's like a two-in-one but actually good), it will leave your hair feeling soft and touchable." — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
t3micro.comBest Air Styler
T3 x Emi Jay 360 Air Styler ($350)
"Wake up, babe, your two favorite hair-care brands just launched a collaboration, and it's good. T3 (the makers of your favorite hair tools) teamed up with Emi Jay (the makers of the best claw clips on earth) just collaborated on a T3 Air Styler, and the result is 10/10. It comes in a limited edition lychee pink shade, and not only is it cute as hell, but it will give you the best blowout of your life." — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
Best Body Lotion
Dewsy Body Lotion ($20)
"I moisturize every single time I get out of the shower, and I'm picky about the products I use. I was recently introduced to the Dewsy Body Lotion, and to say I'm obsessed is an understatement. I've been combining the lotion with the brand's HA Body Serum, and the two products together leave my skin feeling moisturized and silky smooth. They're simple, no fuss products, but for someone like me who has dry skin, they're a lifesaver." — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
sephora.comBest Hand Wash
Nécessaire's The Hand Wash Santal ($45)
"So, $45 is a lot for a hand wash, I know, but the scent of the new Nécessaire's The Hand Wash Santal is truly luxurious. It smells more like a fine fragrance than something you'd wash your hands with, with notes of sandalwood, black pepper, iris, and jasmine. The formula itself is also hydrating and doesn't leave your skin feeling stripped." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
POPSUGAR Photography | Jessica HarringtonBest Body Lotion Bar
Kate McLeod Tangerine & Vanilla Deep Moisturizing Lotion Bar ($34)
"The Kate McLeod Tangerine & Vanilla Deep Moisturizing Lotion Bar smells heavenly, just like summer. If you've never tried the brand's lotion bars, you rub them into dry skin, and the solid formula melts upon contact, leaving behind a veil of moisture. It makes my skin glimmer as if I used a body oil." — Jessica Harrington, beauty lead
bigelowchemists.comBest Makeup Case
Abbode x C.O. Bigelow Waffle Pouch ($68)
"I'm a sucker for a pouch, especially when it looks as cute as the Abbode x C.O. Bigelow Waffle Pouch. The Abbode Waffle Pouches are literally everywhere right now, but trust me when I say I haven't seen a cuter one than the one C.O. Bigelow created. Not only does it fit all of my essentials, but it's perfectly structured and has been the best addition to my travel bag." — Renee Rodriguez, senior staff writer and producer
