"2026 is already shaping up to be a big year for beauty, and January's launches are proof. From long-requested products to some unexpected standouts, the cosmetics world officially kicked off the new year swinging. Rare Beauty finally delivered a powder bronzer, giving fans a sun-kissed glow in the middle of winter, while Huda Beauty debuted a reformulated pressed powder with a viral stunt (and results to match)."
"Meanwhile, drugstore brands made a serious statement, proving that the best formulas don't always have to break the bank - including e.l.f.'s new caffeine-spiked eye cream, Sheglam's pillow blush, L'Oréal's lip contour liner, and a warm vanilla fragrance that rings in under $50. If you do feel like splurging, though, skin care is the place to invest. Rich nighttime creams, glow-boosting body serums, and deeply hydrating hair launches - like Nécessaire's rosemary-infused hair mask - made winter skin and scalp health a top priority."
