35 Spring Beauty Launches To Get Excited About

There’s a lot of division in the country right now: pro-Trump vs. anti-Trump, team Nicki Minaj vs. team Remy Ma, Moonlight vs. La La Land, those anticipating the Beauty and the Beast remake and those dreading it. It's a hard world out here! One thing that can help us all deal with these actual and non-actual stressors is making sure we’re taking care of ourselves.

A good way to go about that is with beauty. The simple act of treating yourself—be that through a DIY manicure, taking a bath, putting on lipstick, or using a face mask—can do wonders for your sanity. To help, there’s a whole batch of new hair, makeup, skin-care, and body products on the market we thought you should know about. 

There’s a deep conditioner that melts into the hair follicles, leaving you with soft, commercial-worthy hair; a detoxifying African black soap mud mask that will suck the gunk out of your pores; and a bunch of others. A win for your well-being is a win for all. 

Protection from both UV and blue light (aka the light from the device you're reading this on)? Farmacy's sunscreen provides both.

Farmacy, Green Screen, $36, available in March at Sephora. 

Beauty brands are finally listening to the needs of the black consumer, which is evident in NYX's new expansive foundation collection. The dropper allows you to control the amount of coverage you want, be it minimal or full.

NYX, Total Control Drop Foundation, $14, available at NYX. 

Even better than a dry shampoo, Oribe's Volume Powder helps lift the roots and create texture.

Oribe, Swept Up Volume Powder Spray, $42, available in April.

Miu Miu's new spring perfume makes us want to buy ourselves some flowers. Lily of the valley, to be specific. That's the main note takeaway you'll get from this light fragrance, though there are hints of rose and wood, also.

Miu Miu, L'eau Bleue, $68, available at Sephora. 

Tenoverten's 8-free polishes come in fresh spring shades (think baby pink and nude) and are cruelty-free and vegan.

If you're going to use a body bronzer of some kind, might as well make it Tom Ford.

Tom Ford, Bronzing Gel, $48, available at Tom Ford. 

This is that face mask we were talking about earlier. African Black Soap, which is superb at thoroughly cleaning the skin, is a criminally underrated ingredient. Combine that with mud, and you've got a face mask worth holding onto.

Nubian Heritage, African Black Soap Mud Mask, $16.99, available at Nubian Heritage. 

To counteract your other bright and bubbly bath bombs, try out this dark black pepper-scented one. It reads gray on the outside, but inside is an explosion of color you'll want to experience for yourself.
