August is turning to September and summer is turning to fall. Isn't it funny how what used to be one of the biggest bummers of our childhood is now one of the biggest excitements of
adulthood? While we unequivocally love a warm,
summer-y glow, there's no denying that autumn's cool colors and crisp air create the perfect opportunity for a much-needed beauty update. Luckily for us, some of our favorite brands are on board and have launched some seriously stunning makeup,
skincare, and haircare products that you won't want to miss. As always, we've taken out the guesswork and rounded up 26 of our favorite September beauty launches. Buy one, two, three, or all of them — whatever you choose, you won't be disappointed. Happy shopping! (Illustration by San Trieu)
