I love autumn. In fact, it’s my favourite season ever. To me, there’s something so exciting about getting wrapped up in your favourite jumper, heading out on a walk with the leaves crunching beneath your feet, coming home and lighting your favourite candle before cosying up with a film and a mug of hot chocolate. However, as a beauty editor, another reason why I love this season is that it often makes way for some of the most exciting beauty launches of the year, and 2024 is no exception.
There have been so many new beauty products landing on my desk as of late, but luxury beauty definitely seems to be having a moment this autumn. From designer makeup launches to fashion house fragrances and state-of-the-art skincare, now is the time to invest in those staple autumn beauty products that you’ve been saving up for all summer.

Advanced Night Repair Overnight Treatment
Our skin always needs a bit of love in autumn as it adjusts to the changing temperatures, and I plan on investing in the new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Overnight Treatment.

Ambre Nuit Esprit de Parfum
Dior recently launched a concentrated reiteration of five iconic scents from the La Collection Priveé Christian Dior Collection, and I’ve got my eyes on Ambre Nuit for autumn. With a spicy, musky, warm amber scent, you’ll want to nuzzle your nose into this perfume and never wash it off.
