For gals with baby-fine hair, hair oil isn't always a realistic option. Even the lightest formulas can weigh down your style. That's why Shu Uemura's new version of their cult-classic Essence Absolue Oil is a true standout. The oil is whipped into a frothy consistency that doesn't weigh hair down, and it still contains nourishing camellia oil and has that famous intoxicating scent.
The mix of grapefruit, blackberry, and bay leaves in this new Jo Malone cologne is a sophisticated blend that's perfect for transitioning into autumn's headier fragrances. At first whiff, this fall fragrance is a full-on citrus. But after it settles on your skin, it shifts into more of an earthy musk. If the multi-colored leaves and bubbling pies of autumn could be bottled, this is what it would smell like.

Yes To Hair Collection
Few things are more exciting than when your favorite beauty brand dives into another category. If they have fantastic skin care products, chances are their new makeup collection or hair care line is going to be equally amazing. Such is the case with the Yes To Hair Collection, from the brilliant minds behind Yes To products like Yes To Carrots Lip Butter, $3.25, and Yes To Blueberries Brightening Facial Towelettes, $7.99. The new collection includes an anti-frizz serum, leave-in conditioner, and shampoos and conditioners for scalp relief, color protection, and damaged hair. Like the entire Yes To line, each item is packed with natural ingredients such as blueberries, carrots, tea tree, and cucumbers -- without a paraben in sight.
Fact: La Mer is the crème de la crème of moisturizers. Also true: It's way too heavy (not to mention spendy) for most of us. While this newer version isn't any cheaper, it is a lot lighter and doesn't leave you feeling greasy. Plus, it still contains all the luxurious ingredients of the original (sea kelp, vitamin C, vitamin E). Now, if only they�d do something about that price ...
Hundreds of new beauty products come out each month, and unless you are an extreme beauty junkie -- you qualify if you troll makeup blogs and befriend beauty counter employees -- you may not be up to speed on the newest fall items hitting shelves this September.
Which got us thinking: Wouldn't it be great if the first thing you saw when you walked into Sephora was a giant shelf of "new releases" -- kind of like that table at Barnes & Noble that always gets us to buy eight new paperbacks?
Well, we're going to do you one better. We road-tested every new beauty product coming out this September and chose our ultimate favorites. Keep reading to see which ones you should buy this month -- before they sell out!
