There were some exciting grooming launches (and relaunches) in October, and with good reason. Right now is the time when the weather truly starts to change, and drier, colder air means your skin and body care routine need different solutions now than they did in the height of summer. That’s why we were gratified to see intensely hydrating new products from the likes of Dior, Augustinus Bader, and Filorga. Beyond this, don’t miss an innovative new LED mask from CurrentBody, Nutrafol’s instant hit shampoo and conditioner, and a slate of new fragrances you might want to wear after the weather starts to warm up again.

Dior L’Or de Vie La Creme
Dior’s most legendary face cream relaunched this month with a new formulation. It takes something called “Noble Rot” at LVMH’s equally storied Château d’Yquem. By harnessing the power of Golden Drop Longevity Technology (read more about that here), the cream helps your skin at the cellular level by boosting collagen production and reducing oxidative stress.

Augustinus Bader The Rich Eye Cream
Just as it offers different densities across facial moisturizers, Augustinus Bader now offers a heftier eye cream. Compared to the more lightweight “The Eye Cream,” this rich alternative is perfect for dry skin, cold nights, long winters, arid climates, and air-conditioned living. It creates a protective and plumping layer, delivering low-molecular hyaluronic acid to seep deep into the skin for thorough hydration.

CurrentBody LED Light Therapy Mask Series 2
CurrentBody’s beloved LED mask gets its own facelift with the Series 2. The upgrade not only increases the number of LEDs across the device (at 236, versus 132 on Series 1), but it also expands coverage to the chin and beneath the jawline, while also incorporating strategically placed deep-near-infrared LEDs to improve cellular renewal. It still uses red and near-infrared LEDs, which helps stimulate collage production and refine fine lines and wrinkles.

Filorga NCEF-Revitalize Serum and Cream
The hero ingredient in Filorga’s new duo is NCEF-Revitalize, which is basically like a nutrient-dense IV-drip for your skin (chock full of vitamins, amino acids, NAD, and minerals). Used separately or in tandem, these will greatly improve skin texture, complexion, firmness, and radiance.

Prof. Dr. Steinkraus Balancing Toner
Hamburg-based Prof. Dr. Steinkraus is skincare’s best-kept secret—but can we please make it known? This. Brand. Is. Exceptional. (We’ve loved it since its launch, for the record!) The brand’s latest product adds an essential step to any advanced regimen—a skin-balancing toner flush with antioxidants, anti-inflammatory ingredients, and moisturizing hyaluronic acid.

Corpus Deodorant Spray
If you’re green on Corpus, know this: The brand, anchored in natural formulations, folds fine fragrances into its many body and hair care products. These four prebiotic deodorant sprays offer new applications on their trio of best-selling (and best-smelling) roll-on deodorants, while also offering a new scent (Pomelo). Our favorite will always be Nº Green, but that’s splitting hairs; they all smell fantastic.

Nutrafol Active Cleanse 2-in-1 Shampoo-Conditioner
Nutrafol is the name in hair-density nutraceuticals, and this hybrid shampoo-and-conditioner is a great product for anyone with short and thinning hair. While it won’t replace an actual conditioner for someone whose longer, thicker hair requires, this product wonderfully streamlines the shower regimen by providing konjac-root-powered nourishment that conditions fine hairs without weighing them down.

Mind Games Mentor and Prodigy
The latest duo from Mind Games offers a pair of delicious gourmands—and each purchase gives you a vial of the signature raw materials in each one. The boya oud and amber in Mentor are stately (in the scent and on their own), while the rose absolute and patchouli in Prodigy are a masterclass in perfectly opposite attraction.

Unifrom Cannabloom Perfume Oil Roller
The centering powers of this syrupy roll-on oil are profound. Cannabis leaf, grapefruit, and myrrh share the stage, whether that stage is your pulse points or—you heard it here first—a little dab onto your mustache for a truly blissful dry down.

Gallivant Buenos Aires EDP
Each of Gallivant’s scents takes a thoughtful approach of bottling up its namesake locale, and Buenos Aires gets the fanfare it deserves: Grape accords are a nod to the nation’s vineyards; its floral middle notes pull from Argentina’s national flower, the ceibo. No Argentine accord is complete without yerba buena tea—maté is their love language, after all—and a smoky, creamy finish tethers gaucho-like leather to dulce de leche. The result is playful and clear-headed, and every bit as nuanced as the nation to which this ode was penned.
