Best New Beauty Products for August 2026Hearst Owned
In the Good Housekeeping Institute Beauty & Personal Care Lab, our team of scientists and beauty editors receive almost every new beauty product launch, from face and body skincare products to haircare and styling, makeup, tools, devices, and fragrances. Luckily, after decades of experience testing products, we can easily spot the winners in a crowd. In this monthly series, GH Beauty Lab experts sort through the hundreds of samples crossing our desks to share the ones that stood out enough to earn a spot in our routines.
As we battle the days of excessively high temperatures and even higher humidity, our GH Beauty Lab team is embracing the best that summer has to offer, including when it comes to beauty. Among the piles of products flooding the Lab this month, we’re loving makeup that keeps our skin looking polished in sauna-like conditions, tools that cool sweaty skin on contact, treatments to repair frazzled summer hair, and scents to keep the season going long after the sun sets on it. Read on for all of our new favorites!
