From instant cult favorites to innovative solutions to beauty problems, there are a slew of rad products that dropped. Read on for a recap of the best new beauty products that launched this year.

Pat McGrath Labs Mothership Eyeshadow Palette ($125): Packed with 10 creamy, highly pigmented shadows, any of the three palettes from the Mothership line are TDF.
Mai Couture Paper Makeup Sheets ($12-$18): That’s right: Paper makeup debuted this year, and we are here for it. These newbies come in the form of foundation, blush, bronzer, and highlighter, and they actually work.
Lipstick Queen Black Lace Rabbit Cream Blush ($25): It’s hard to believe that this black blush is universally flattering, but here’s all the proof you need.
Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Lips ($34): People are obsessed with Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks, so when she created a liquid version, beauty babes took note. They feel like a hydrating gloss but set to a totally matte finish.

Supergoop! Super Power Sunscreen Mousse Broad Spectrum SPF 50 ($34): You can now protect your skin from the sun in mousse form. Unlike traditional sunscreens, this one is light as air and gives your skin a dose of moisture.
