August is when things really start to heat up.<\/p>\n

No, we\u2019re not talking about the weather, the race for the MLB Wild Card spots or even the countdown to the first day of school. We\u2019re talking about all the skin care, hair care and makeup that gets us excited about the weeks ahead. From Clinique\u2019s new plumping face cream to Sutra\u2019s round brush, these are all the products we\u2019re incorporating into our routines now.<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t talk about what\u2019s trending in skincare right now without mentioning PDRN. Short for Polydeoxyribonucleotide, the DNA fragment is lauded for its ability to help stimulate collagen production. While the ingredient was first popularized by Korean treatments, in which animal-derived PDRN was injected into skin, products using plant-derived PDRN applied topically are producing impressive results, and Clinique\u2019s cream is leading the charge. The brand has combined its biotech-derived PDRN (from cica plants) with collagen and peptides to create a powerhouse moisturizer that improves texture and boosts radiance in just one use. After one month, your skin will look and feel so bouncy and firm, friends might change your nickname to Benjamin Button.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll never catch us without a hand cream at arms reach, and our current must-have is Beekman 1802\u2019s. Naturally, it meets our baseline requirements (it absorbs quick, fits in our purses and has a twist-open cap making it a dream to commute with) but it exceeds expectations with its results: hands that look instantly more soft and smooth, and over time, as youthful as the skin on our faces, which we pour remarkably more time and effort into.<\/p>\n

For those of us who don\u2019t live in Beverly Hills near Striiike, the beauty studio opened by celebrity brow guru Kristie Streicher and her sisters, makeup artist Jenn Streicher and hairstylist Ashley Streicher, fear not: Kristie Streicher is making it easier to recreate amazing brows at home. After four years in the making, she just introduced her Backcombing Texture Sticks for hairs that need a little pick me up. When you apply the fiber-infused formula in the opposite direction the hair grows in (a.k.a. backcombing), then use the spoolie to set them in place, hairs become voluminous and lifted, but not the least bit stiff.<\/p>\n

Longevity is a buzzword in beauty but brands like Clarins are making intentional waves in the space. Its new eye serum bottles up seven years of longevity research to offer up its most innovative eye treatment to date. Double Serum Eye addresses both chronological aging as well as epigenetic aging, which \u201cis directly impacted by lifestyle and environment,\u201d according to a release, and heightens signs of aging (such as crows feet and puffiness) around the eyes. If you\u2019re like us and you schedule is a mess for the foreseeable future, the least you can do is stock up on this tumeric and marjoram extract-packed formula to help reduce the impact of these factors on your skin.<\/p>\n

The hot brush category is on fire (only figuratively, guys) with a number of new tools popping up all over social media. We\u2019re partial to Sutra\u2019s latest, which happens to be the only Infrared\u00a0high-speed brushless motor blowout brush that we know of. This means it doesn\u2019t rely purely on surface heat, which can damage the cuticle, like other hot brushes do. Instead, its FAR Infrared wavelengths penetrate the hair to dry it from\u00a0inside out, which helps the hair retain moisture and shine, the foundation of a healthy blowout.<\/p>\n
