Meet the Best New Beauty Launches of March

Your skin’s invisible armour, now in a mist

U Beauty just bottled its most multitasking formula yet. Mists are definitely having a moment, but this on hits different. The Barrier Bioactive Mist is more than a face mist—it’s a barrier-support serum in a spray that doubles as a lightweight makeup setting spray.

Inside, a Bioactive Microbiome Complex (a postbiotic ferment) works to support the skin’s moisture barrier and nurture the microbiome, while a Pollution Defense Matrix, a biotech-derived biopolymer, creates an invisible, breathable film over skin to physically shield against environmental aggressors. Then there’s ectoin, the overachieving amino acid derivative that soothes, hydrates and builds resilience even under stress.

I’ve been using it for the last moth and my skin looks dewy, feels defended and stays that way—so whether you’re misting on post-serum or spritzing mid-afternoon to revive your base, it delivers. It’s the kind of product that makes a three-step routine feel like it’s doing ten steps’ worth of work.

Glow Recipe launches a lazy-girl holy grail

I’ve been reaching for the new Glow Recipe Glass Balm Tint in Fig Bingsoo nonstop lately. It’s one of those easy throw-in-your-bag lip products that can somehow make you look more put together in seconds. The shade—a sheer mauve-nude inspired by fig-flavoured Korean desserts—hits that sweet spot between polished and undone. It’s just enough colour to wake up your face without ever feeling overdone.

What really sold me, though, is the texture. It has that signature glassy, high-shine finish, but without the stickiness that usually comes with it. Instead, it feels more like a treatment that softens and hydrates as you wear it, never sliding off or pooling in the corners. Essentially, it’s the lip equivalent of looking like you tried without trying—and who doesn’t want that?

The scent of a sugar rush, bottled in Paris

Maison Francis Kurkdjian took its most playful, unserious, utterly joyful fragrance and made it even more accessible. The Kurky Eau Parfumée is the alcohol-free version of the 2025 favourite. It has that same fruity, candy-shop-esque formula, just in a water base.

The swap from alcohol to water does something interesting to the juice: The peachy, raspberry-laced notes become juicier, rounder and feel more edible. The dry-down is still that creamy, clean-skin musk with a whisper of vanilla—reminiscent of a good hug and impossible to place an age on.

Dermalogica wants you to start saving your collagen

Collagen banking is one of skincare’s buzz words right now, and Dermalogica is leaning all the way in. The new Pro-Collagen Banking Water Cream doesn’t just focus on collagen; it also targets elastin, the protein that keeps skin bouncy and resilient. Think of it as the moisturizer you wish you’d started using years ago.

The texture is an instant win: a water-burst formula that feels light, fresh and quickly absorbed, leaving skin looking plumped and hydrated—no heaviness, no residue. Beneath that, a peptide complex with collagen amino acids and antioxidants works to help defend against oxidative stress, while red algae supports smoother, more resilient-looking skin.

Typebea is making scalp care the mane event

Rita Ora has never done anything quietly. Typebea, her scalp-first hair care line, is no different.

Co-founded with Australian beauty entrepreneur Anna Lahey, whose own experience with hair loss became the brand’s entire reason for being, Typebea is built on a simple but underrated premise: fix the scalp, and the rest will follow. The hero product is the G·1 Overnight Boosting Peptide Serum, which happens to be Sephora Australia’s number-one hair serum. It’s a leave-it-on, wake-up-to-results formula that does its best work while you sleep. Over coffee, Lahey told me that she puts hers next to her bed as a trick to remember to apply. The wider range is clinically tested, designed to deliver visibly thicker, fuller-looking strands and free from sulphates, parabens and silicone. No gimmicks, no filler—just scalp science with a very good publicist.

Dior is making your skin filter redundant

The reinvented Dior Forever range is the update I didn’t know I needed: two new formulas, both created by Peter Philips, that treat your complexion like a canvas worth caring for, not just covering.

I’m reaching for the Dior Forever Skin Glow first. It’s a 24-hour, no-retouch formula with a photo-studio glow that holds up in every light. If that’s not your thing, the Forever Skin Wear is its matte counterpart—think an all-day, transfer-proof finish that blurs without flattening. What really sold me? Both formulas are built around skincare, so we’re talking deeply hydrating, noncomedogenic formulas that are designed to make skin look better over time. In a sea of new foundation launches this year, this one just might be my new favourite.

Prada’s first blush is exactly what you’d expect (read: damn near perfect)

Let’s take a quick trip down memory lane. In 2023, Prada Beauty entered the luxury beauty market. In 2025, it launched in Canada. Today, it’s earned its stripes and is making its first move into colour.

Meet Prada Touch, the brand’s first-ever blush. A cream-to-powder formula, it does exactly what you’d expect from a house built on precision, delivering effortless, high-impact looks, all in a perfectly packaged compact you actually want to leave on your vanity. The shades can be worn solo or stacked, and Bella Hadid—Prada Beauty’s newly announced global ambassador—has been layering

Available in eight shades, the Prada Touch blush can be worn solo or stacked. For inspo, look to none other than Bella Hadid, Prada Beauty’s newly announced first global ambassador, who layers two shades of the multi-use product.

Introducing an SPF you’ll actually want to reapply

Tatcha has always treated sunscreen like skincare, not an afterthought or a chore. The beauty brand’s latest release, however, is a standout that will never leave my side. The Milky Sunscreen is an SPF 50+ chemical formula with the highest possible UVA rating.

The texture is where the magic lies. Ultra-lightweight and silky, it absorbs instantly and disappears into skin with no white cast or sticky finish. Inside, encapsulated ectoin and vitamin E work to support cellular hydration and help repair the skin barrier, while Okinawa aloe (a Japanese botanical) soothes and softens as you wear it. Essentially, it moonlights as a moisturizer.

Brooklyn’s best-kept hair secret just crossed the border

Eva NYC has been dominating the U.S. haircare conversation for years. When you’re in over 19,500 retail doors and have the top-selling hair mask at Target, that tends to happen. Now, it’s officially Canada’s turn. The Brooklyn-born, cruelty-free, B Corp-certified brand has landed at Sephora Canada, bringing its no-compromise approach to clean, clinically-backed haircare with it.

The standout? The Therapy Session Deep Conditioning Hair Mask. If U.S. demand is any indication, it won’t stay on shelves for long. Powered by vitamin B5 and jojoba oil, it pulled in over $8 million in sales in 2024 alone. It melts into dry, damaged hair while boosting strength and smoothness from the inside out. It’s the kind of mask that will have you touching your hair non-stop post-rinse.

The packaging helps, too. Bold, playful and very Brooklyn—it apparently takes inspiration from the city’s iconic graffiti. It looks good on your shelf, performs in the shower, doesn’t hurt the environment and is reasonably priced. Love that for us!
