Best new beauty products 2020

From a waterless cleanser to a summer scent, along with a complexion-enhancing foundation, designer room diffusers and dreamy hand care, these are the new beauty launches to buy now

Byredo Lil Fleur Eau De Parfum, £115

This spritz combines florals and fruits with light woods, amber and leather – it's sparkling, fresh and fruity, yet with an edge. It's youthful, but not young or immature, too sweet or saccharine.


Ben Gorham, Creative Director and Founder, Byredo says: 'I feel that perfume often tries to capture one idea or one emotion; Lil Fleur is about capturing a complex personality, one we can all recognise. As a brother to a sister and a father to a daughter, in my experience, it does not get more beautiful and interesting than the personalities of a young spirit.'

Gloved Hand Care by Tom Daxon, from £20

Oh, how your hands and sink deserve this. The soap and lotion duo are super-nourishing, unctuous, and clean formulas, with good-for-you ingredients like hyaluronic acid and natural oils.


Plus, they're anti-microbial, break down stubborn kitchen smells like garlic and spices – and the heavy glass bottles look stylish next to the basin.


Your hands look and feel better after washing and you're left with the aromatic fragrance oils sourced from perfume capital, Grasse. A heavenly scented round of applause to Tom Daxon and his mother, Dale Daxon Bowers of Molton Brown, fame for creating these in our time of (digit-pampering) need.
