At this time of the year it’s a good time to clean your makeup bag while you do your spring cleaning, and of course, that makes space for new products right? There’s nothing better than trying new products and finding new go-to products that you just can’t go without and wonder how you were even able to go about your days without them. Luckily, brands are launching heaps of new collaborations, products and even complete lines of makeup (!) this spring and we decided to gather the ones we believe are going to the be next “big-thing” in terms of their functions so that you don’t have to see the effort and time. Scroll down to find the eleven products (and line) we believe you will fall in love with this spring and summer if you do end up trying and buying them.

MARCH RELEASE RADAR -
MAKEUP EDITION
GLOSSIER | Playground
The new line of products includes four products; Vinylic Lip ( a high shine lacquer), Colorslide (technogel eye pencil), Glitter Gelee (multigrade paillettes), Niteshine (highlighter concentrate), as well as two tools; The Detailer (silicone precision multi-tool) and a Blade (German engineered sharpener).
HUDABEAUTY | Matte Power Bullet Lipstick
The new range of lipsticks comes in eight cool and warm-toned shades, which were designed to reflect the beauty of a rose. Every single shade different formula to ensure maximum comfort in terms of applying and wearability as well as pigmentation.
ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS | Dipbrow Gel
Extending the Dipbrow family is the new Gel, intended to be used alone or on top of defining brow products (the formula is rich and can become overpowering easily, so do apply it with caution). It is perfect for that natural bushy brow look and comes in eleven different shades.
Dewy skin seems to be the trend for the coming summer and spring, and that is exactly what this new primer by Beauty Blender is all about. Giving you that perfect golden hour glow and promising to make your foundation glide on smoothly while not clinging onto any dry patches (recommended for normal to dry skin types). The addition of fermented botanicals in the formula are meant to soothe and brighten the skin during the wearing of it.
BEAUTY BLENDER | Opal Essence Serum Primer
TOO FACED | Better Than Sex Eyeliner
Joining the Better Than Sex Mascaras is the new eyeliner, promising to be the easiest liner you will ever use, giving sharp, fluid and smudge-proof 24H lasting waterproof result each time.
KYLIE JENNER | Loose Setting Powder
Already sold out on the e-commerce, this new loose powder is the first setting product in the Kylie Jenner Cosmetics brand (finally). Available in six different shades from translucent to dark tones, it promises to give a natural, skin-like finish while balancing oils throughout the day.
TARTE | Babassu Foundcealer
Tarte is extending their offering of formulas for foundations with this “vegan, multi-tasking skincare foundation”, which comes in thirty different shades. Claiming to hydrate and give an appearance of a plumper skin while minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, we are for sure adding this to our testing list for the spring!

Perfect choice for a natural lip is the moisturizing and sheer (but buildable) formula of the new Honest Beauty’s lip balm. Cruelty-free and vegan, the range comes in six shades from pinks to nudes.
PHYSICIANS FORMULA | Shade Adjusting Drops
In order to cater for more skin tones within their range of newly released foundations (and why not also others), Physicians Formula is releasing these drops meant for adjusting the shade of your foundation to perfectly suit your own skin tone. Also, they are enriched with Vitamin E and C to provide a skincare element as well.
CLINIQUE | Even Better Refresh Hydrating and Repairing Makeup
Containing hyaluronic acid for a plumbed and younger looking skin, this new formula claims to be 24H wear and full coverage all at the same time. Salicylic acid is supposed to retexturize the skin while peptides help in keeping the skin smooth. Works for dry, dry combination and oily combination skin types and comes in twenty-seven shades.
LAURA MERCIER | Caviar Chrome Veil Lightweight Liquid Eye Colour
If you wish to join the bandwagon of glowy looks this spring and summer these new shimmery eye tints are your go-to. Available in six different shades, you will find the perfect shade for day and night.
