Thanks to its Instagram-worthy pink bottle, Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia Eau de Parfum, $108, basically had us at "hello." But luckily the fragrance inside is equally stunning. We're talking a sweet, fruity floral that mixes white gardenia and jasmine with pear and brown sugar.

Summer's almost over. Sigh. Soon we'll all be saying hello to cooler temps and goodbye to shorts and sandals. Not to mention adjusting our beauty routines.

With 6.6 million followers on Instagram, Negin Mirsalehi is one of the world's leading lifestyle influencers. Named to Forbes' 30 Under 30 list, she's also the founder of hair care brand Gisou. The honey-infused line was inspired by Mirsalehi's father, a beekeeper, and mother, a hairdresser. All of the products are made using propolis from her family's sixth generation bee farm. Gisou's signature product is a hair oil, but Mirsalehi, who is passionate about bee conservation, has a love for oils that goes well beyond just hair.

Fashion is famously cyclical so everything truly does come around again. For the last few years, early 2000s style has been popping back up on the runways and on celebrities. Albeit in small doses. Beauty isn't being left out of the renaissance, either. We're once again falling hard for high-shine glosses, butterflies and glitter like it's 2000.

After 2020 forced us to forgo salon visits, we say we deserve something extra special for our nails. Don't you think? Well, here's just the thing to treat yourself. Gucci Vernis à Ongles Nail Polish, $30, is perhaps the chicest polish line we've ever seen with vintage-inspired bottles and a gorgeous selection of shades. Our favorite? This melon coral that's oh so pretty on fingers or toes.

Most of us don't consider beauty supplements as exciting as, say, a new lipstick or bottle of nail polish. Even if said supplements are very effective. But brands are making new gummies and powders that are as playful as they are functional.

If you're a millennial, you probably know Lauren "Lo" Bosworth from her years on Laguna Beach and The Hills. But these days she's a major boss babe sitting at the helm of a fast-growing brand of personal care products called Love Wellness stocked at Ulta Beauty and Target. Today a whole new generation of women look up to Bosworth for her business savvy and covetable line of supplements, wipes and detox products.

Mix a few squirts of Drunk Elephant's O-Bloos Rosi Drops, $36, with your favorite moisturizer or apply it alone. Either way, it adds a healthy I-just-worked-out-but-somehow-still-look-gorgeous flush while also treating skin to a cocktail of luscious ingredients, including omega fatty acids, white tea extract and peptides.

It's that time of year again. Amazon Prime Day is here. The deals are spread across two days (today and tomorrow) putting all those Black Friday and Cyber Monday discounts to shame. We're talking 20 percent, 30 percent or even 40 percent off and all you have to do is click "add to cart." No pushing, shoving or waiting in line required.

Dylan Lauren, founder of Dylan's Candy Bar and the daughter of famed fashion designer Ralph Lauren, debunks the myth that sugar leads to blemishes. Despite a sweet tooth, which she's turned into a candy empire, she has a year-round tan and glowing skin.

With a thick, bushy brush and a long-wearing, volumizing formula, Maybelline New York Volum' Express Colossal Up to 36 Hour Waterproof Mascara, $6.99, gives you crazy-thick lashes that will have everyone asking where you got your extensions done.

Overnight face masks and hair masks aren't the only eight-hour beauty treatments. Silk pillowcases are another nighttime product that can help both your skin and your tresses. After all, we spend a third of our lives in bed. So what we sleep on is important.

It's a new season and just like we're ready to swap our sweaters for T-shirts, we need to switch up our beauty regimens. Those heavy moisturizers and serums simply won't work in warmer weather. So we're favoring more season-appropriate options.

Julie Schott had a long career in publishing. She spent years working her way up the ladder culminating in a position as beauty director at ELLE. She left her glossy job in late 2017 and in early 2019 co-launched her first company, Starface.

Sure, you may recycle your LaCroix cans or carry a fabric tote to the grocery store. But if you're like us, you're probably still guilty of throwing out far too many beauty empties. To get a little greener, try Love Beauty and Planet Murumuru Butter & Rose Shampoo, $9.99, which now comes in a reusable aluminum bottle designed to live in your shower, not a landfill. Once you've used up the (super moisturizing, yummy-smelling) shampoo, simply pour in more from one of the giant refill packs and start the process all over again.

We all know that alcohol is a common ingredient in skin care products. "It's often used as a solubilizer and helps with controlling oily skin," says Dr. Eddie Omar, CEO of Phyto-C. "Alcohol also helps with skin penetration of ingredients since it's easily absorbed."

Her initial claim to fame may have been being the sister of Arielle Charnas, but Michaela Podolsky has managed to carve out a niche for herself as a beauty influencer. The new mom opened up on Instagram about her pregnancy troubles, including fertility treatments and the loss of one of her twins mid-pregnancy. She has an equally relatable approach to beauty. She embraces a variety of luxe and more moderately priced brands and favors a natural look. (Just look at her five holy grail beauty picks.)

With over 360,000 followers on Instagram and 600,000 on YouTube, Mona Vand is well on her way to building a clean living empire. She frequently posts pointers and shoots videos detailing clean beauty tips, tricks and products. Surprisingly, given her background as a pharmacist, she's a big proponent of solving problems, whether health or beauty related, with food first. Great skin care products don't hurt, of course.

So long clown cheeks. This creamy, water-based gel, Saie Dew Blush, $22, gives a just-watched-an-episode-of-Bridgerton flush that's romantic and natural, not loud or garish.

If you're a fan of natural nails, you're in luck. Practical, minimalist nails were seen over and over during Fashion Month Fall 2021. Nails were mostly soft and short, further highlighting the season's pragmatic manicure mood.
