Nordstrom's New Arrivals Are So Good I Feel Compelled to Spring-Clean My Beauty Routine Early This Year

I'm not the only one who's excited about Parfums de Marly's latest launch; the entire Who What Wear beauty team seems to be wearing it just as often as I am. Inspired by Athénaïs de Montespan, an influential French noblewoman and mistress of King Louis XIV, it's meant to embody "fearless femininity." It's sparkling and sophisticated, with notes of neroli, bergamot, jasmine, orange flower, tonka bean, and vanilla.

Take it from my colleague and Who What Wear's senior beauty editor, Jamie Schneider. "I’m a Parfums de Marly Delina stan, but I’m officially crowning the brand’s newest launch as my all-time favorite. (This is major, BTW. No other launch has eclipsed my beloved Delina since its 2017 debut.) … While Delina has playful notes of lychee and rhubarb, Athénaïs reads more sophisticated with jasmine and orange blossom. I’ve been wearing it nonstop."

Creamy, smudge-proof, and incredibly sophisticated—you won't find an eyeliner that editors love more than Victoria Beckham Beauty's Satin Kajal Liner. They glide across the lid like butter, provide vivid color, and come in the chicest shades. They're one of the few beauty products I feel compelled to collect in every color.

Sorry, Santal 33, but Le Labo's Violette 30 is 2026's newest cool-girl fragrance. It's an olfactory exploration of the violet and its symbolic and paradoxical meanings. In the Victorian era, violets evoked passion and innocence, strength and delicacy, wisdom and optimism. It's this duality that the brand set out to capture in scent—combining a note of rare, white violet with green floral notes, white tea notes, and cedarwood. It's soft, pretty, and sophisticated. The perfect spring scent.

I turned 30 this year, which means I'm officially in my eye-cream era. I'm always looking for the best one to treat and prevent fine lines, under-eye circles, and puffiness, and I think I found it in La Mer's The Rejuvenating Eye Cream. Is it expensive? Yes, but it offers 360-degree eye-area benefits. In as few as four weeks, it can boost firmness, plumpness, smoothness, elasticity, and radiance.

Remember how I said I'm in my eye-cream era? Well, I'm also in my bodycare era, and Osea's Dream Bio-Retinol Body Serum is set to become my new go-to product. It works overnight to reduce the visible effects of stress on skin—loss of firmness, dullness, dryness, you name it. It does so with algae-derived bio-retinol, red seaweed, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide. The addition of magnesium and lavender helps you drift off into a perfect state of serenity.

Dior's new Forever Skin Bronzer Sticks are so luxe. They melt onto the skin, blend like a dream, and provide long-lasting, natural-looking color. Careful! You just might fool everyone into thinking you just got back from an expensive oceanside vacation because the sun-kissed color is nearly indiscernible on the skin.

I've been waiting for this new fragrance from Henry Rose to drop for weeks. Now that it's finally here, I'm not wasting any time; it's going straight into my cart! Inspired by a perfume Michelle Pfeiffer found in London in (you guessed it) 1983, it's warm and skin-like, with notes of black pepper–spiked fig (yum), water lily, jasmine, and blonde woods. As one reviewer puts it, it's clean and soft without being boring. The perfect daily scent.

This limited-edition Chanel lipstick is available on Nordstrom's website in two shades. There's Effrontee, a bright berry shade, and Audacieuse, a brick red color. Both are chic and stunning in that hard-to-achieve French-girl way. They deliver intense, full-coverage pigment with a modern-matte formula. Translation? They're not drying or one-dimensional. In fact, they feature soft-focus microspheres and ultrafine pearl particles for a velvety effect. Meanwhile, a combination of shea butter and jojoba oil moisturize the lips.

Vanilla Skin is one of my favorite Phlur fragrances, so it's not surprising that I love this body oil as much as I do. It's rich in floral oils, skin-mimicking lipids, and vitamin C to quench dry skin. Meanwhile, the silky oil wraps the skin in an intoxicating scent with notes of vanilla, sandalwood, pink pepper, and jasmine.

I can't even describe how excited I am for this fragrance to arrive. With notes of Kadota fig accord and vert de bergamot, it's a fruity-citrus fragrance that screams sophistication. Per the name, it captures "the exquisite moment before a fig bursts." There's the green freshness of the leaves, the juicy fruit inside, and even a subtle hint of salt in the air. If it's anything like my other favorite fig-inspired scent, Diptyque's Philosykos Eau de Toilette ($140), I know I'll love it.

Dior's Lip Glow Oils are iconic, yet the brand just made them even more so by introducing new finishes to accompany the original "juicy" one—there's a vinyl-like glaze and an iridescent, sparkly finish. There are so many good colors to shop, but I have my eye on this sophisticated Black Cherry shade at the moment.

How am I supposed to resist Hermès's first-ever foundation? I can't, and I won't. The incredibly luxurious formula was conceived by Gregoris Pyrpylis, creative director of Hermès Beauty. It features an 82% skincare base, a luminous matte finish, and medium coverage to achieve a true "second-skin" finish. It even resists heat, humidity, and perspiration. Did Hermès just create my dream foundation? It certainly sounds like it.

Dry, cakey under-eye concealer? I suggest switching to this new Chanel product. It's creamy, lightweight, and exceptionally hydrating, so it melts into the skin and illuminates the eye area without any crusty-looking creases. It's infused with antioxidant-rich vanilla planifolia water, which helps prevent oxidative stress on the skin. Cedar extract helps reduce the appearance of dark circles, and light-reflecting particles instantly boost radiance. I count on it to whisk away my dark circles and refresh my tired-looking eyes.
