These March Beauty Launches Are Getting Us Ready For Spring
From palettes to body butter.
Lisa Eldridge Makeup
February felt inordinately long this year—and not just because it had an extra day. After 29 days, everyone was ready to say goodbye to the cold, blistery weather and grey skies. That said, March has been a long time coming. Fortunately, the beauty industry got the memo. Brands like Augustinus Bader and St. Tropez are welcoming in this month with plenty of newness, perfect for celebrating the dawn of spring.
This month, brands are addressing every beauty concern, from the biggest (full-body firming) to the smallest (restorative lip balm). No matter where your needs fall on the scale, rest assured that your next must-have is already out there. To narrow down your search, take a look at our favorite March beauty launches.
Versed
Versed Press Restart Advance Retinol Body Butter ($22)
Versed's new body butter covers all the bases. The formula—which includes retinol, tripeptides, and cocoa and tucuma butter—treats all of your skin's woes (yes, even dry skin). By firming, smoothing, moisturizing, and nourishing skin, this launch earned itself the title of the ultimate all-in-one.
Odele
Odele Scalp + Body Scrub ($17)
This sugar-based scrub can be used from head to toe for gentle exfoliation. Whether it's your scalp or your body that needs a little TLC, it has you covered. Plus, the scent of this scrub is perfect for citrus-lovers who appreciate notes of orange peel and grapefruit. Keep it in your shower for a full-body refresh, sans any irritation.
Fur
Fur Dark Spot Vanish Patch ($28)
For any pimple patch fans, this Dark Spot Vanish Patch ($28) from Fur deserves a spot in your medicine cabinet. By targeting dark spots that often come from ingrown hairs, body acne, and skin irritation, this product just became a spring and summer essential. The patches combine brightening and soothing ingredients that work wherever you need them to—including your bikini line, armpits, and face.
Augustinus Bader
Augustinus Bader Geranium Rose Body Oil ($110)
Nothing beats the luxury of a fabulously-scented body oil. This formula from Augustinus Bader helps smooth skin, leaving it looking more even-toned and feeling firmer. Plus, the combined fragrances of geranium and rose might tempt you to skip the perfume.
Oliviaumma Beauty
OLIVIAUMMA Beauty Glass Skin Tanghulu Shine Muscat Cleanser ($29)
Glass skin will always be in. To bring your skincare routine up to speed, consider switching up your go-to cleanser. Try the Glass Skin Tanghulu Shine Muscat Cleanser ($29) from Oliviaumma Beauty. The formula helps soothe skin, keeping inflammation at bay while delivering antioxidants and a dewy glow.
Huda Beauty
Huda Beauty Creamy Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette ($32)
A great eyeshadow palette full of fun neutrals is a must-have for everyone, even the least makeup-savvy. This new Huda Beauty option doesn't just have a gorgeous mix of mattes and metallics, but all the shadows—save for one "setting" shade—feature an innovative cream formula that won't dry out. They're the perfect size to toss in your purse, and you can easily apply them without any tools.
St. Tropez
St. Tropez Supremê Violet Bronzing Mousse ($48)
St. Tropez is prepping for warmer days the best way they know how. This new purple-toned tan is the brand's deepest and darkest yet, especially if you leave it on for the full eight hours. But if that's not your speed, you can keep the formula on for 30 minutes for a softer glow.
Love Wellness
Love Wellness Bye Bye Bloat Firming Clay Body Mask ($25)
Everyone knows that a good face mask is the best way to treat yourself... unless, of course, you have a full body mask at your disposal. This firming body mask from Love Wellness uses ginseng root extract for tighter skin and can help de-bloat when paired with an at-home lymphatic drainage massage.
Farmacy
Farmacy Honey Vanilla Lip Smoothie ($22)
Peptides and vitamin C make this treatment a deliciously effective way to give your lips added moisture. For a plumper pout with a glossy finish, this balm is ideal whether you're investing in some self-care before bed or wanting a glossy lip before a night out.

It contains some of the brand’s most-loved products: Pineapple Refresh cleanser, Glazing Milk, Peptide Glazing Fluid, and Barrier Restore Cream.

Available in six shades, this brow product is an affordable way to bring your brow game to the next level.
Oribe
Oribe Gold Lust Dry Heat Protection Spray ($48)
