The 31 Best Beauty Products Fashionista Editors Discovered in August

Including an exfoliator that doesn't irritate, a lymphatic drainage tool that has several beauty editors (and our beauty director) hooked and a peppy nail polish color perfect for the dog days of summer.

Each month, Fashionista editors try a *lot* of beauty products. And while not every formula we test is a winner, we're constantly unearthing new favorites. Here, we've rounded up our latest hair, skin, fragrance, wellness and makeup discoveries — whether fresh-to-market drops or merely recent additions to our personal routines.

Well, everyone, summer has come and passed. (To further quote a Green Day song that was clearly ahead of its time with lyrics that apply perfectly to the year 2020, 20 years [of quarantine] has gone so fast.) So it's officially time for team Fashionista to share our favorite beauty and wellness finds from the past four weeks.

Throughout August, we tested a slew of skin-soothing, hair-helping, lip-loving, eyelash-enhancing, mood-boosting products and discovered plenty of new permanent additions to our beauty routines. Standouts include an exfoliator that creates a dewy glow without irritation, a lymphatic drainage tool that has several beauty editors (and our beauty director!) hooked, a peppy nail polish color perfect for the dog days of summer and a truly unique razor that makes shaving an actually pleasant experience.

<p><strong>Hyper Clear Brightening Clearing Vitamin C Serum, $36, <a href="https://rstyle.me/+Mjbh01g1MUMqs7v5HMo1wg" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:available here;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">available here</a>:</strong> "A potent dose of vitamin C works with kojic acid to fade dark spots, which seem to have come out in full force for me over the last few months. I love that this serum is non-sticky and also gentle, thanks to the inclusion of aloe and anti-inflammatory turmeric high up on the ingredients list." —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director</p>

<p><strong>Kosasport Chemistry AHA Serum Deodorant in Serene Clean, $15, <a href="https://shop-links.co/1713563201628946313" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:available here;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">available here</a>: </strong>"I've tried just about every aluminum-free deodorant, and this is one of the most impressive formulas I've encountered. A clear, lightweight gel, it relies on alpha hydroxy acid to prevent body odor, plus it's spiked with a bunch of good-for-skin ingredients to keep underarms happy. There's an unscented version for the fragrance-averse, but I love the super-subtle, refreshingly green smell of the 'Serene Clean' variety." —Stephanie Saltzman, Beauty Director</p>
