Here are the top beauty launch picks of the week from TheIndustry.beauty team.

Phlur

Cherry Stem Eau de Parfum, Phlur

Gourmand fragrances are officially a thing at the moment. But they have been a thing for me since the 90s when Thierry Mugler launched the ground-breaking Angel. How I was obsessed with it! It sparked a decades-long obsession with finding foodie fragrances that were just the right side of sweet (which is to say not too sickly).

This summer I finally purchased a body spray from Phlur in Vanilla Skin and it is no exaggeration to say I have worn it every day since as a layering base for all my other fragrances. Now I can layer it under the cult fragrance brand's new launch, Cherry Stem. This is a cocktail of juicy black cherry, sugared jasmine and plum, cut through with hints of leather and spiked citrus. These combine to add warmth and sophistication and ensure this fragrance is anything but sickly sweet. With my Vanilla Skin undertones, it is a divine combination.

Phlur was recently acquired by private equity firm TSG Partners, which expects it to generate $150 million in retail sales this year. A fair few of those will come from me.

Priced at £99 (50ml) or £32 (9.5ml), Cherry Stem is available from 6 September at Space NK.

Weight Management Support, Wild Nutrition

The clever team at Wild Nutrition - the food-grown, science-backed supplements brand - is here to support consumers on their weight management journey by offering a natural alternative.  They've developed a supplement containing Metabolaid - a UK-first, scientifically proven botanical complex - that provides a nourishing option compared to traditional weight management products and injections.

Key features of the Weight Management Support include Metabolaid, a UK-first, scientifically proven blend of lemon verbena and hibiscus, backed by over 20 years of research and eight gold-standard clinical trials.

It also features a nutrient-dense formula, including zinc, chromium, magnesium, B6, B12, vitamin D and C, to replenish key nutrients often lost through dieting or GLP-1 use.

Science-backed benefits:

  • Supports metabolic function and fatty acid metabolism.
  • Maintains healthy blood glucose levels.
  • Supports energy, hormonal balance, bone and muscle health.

Priced at £45 for 90 capsules (30-day supply), Weight Management Support is available at Wild Nutrition and Boots.

AKT

The Everyday Encore Body Oil, AKT London

AKT London, the personal care brand that began with natural deodorants, continues its expansion with the launch of The Everyday Encore Body Oil, the latest addition to its growing bodycare range.

Harry's Plus

Men's grooming brand Harry's has launched Harry's Plus, its most advanced shaving system to date!

The new system has been engineered for exceptional control and performance and can meet the needs of most grooming routines. Whether you’re a five-day shaver like me (hey, we all gotta take the weekends off sometimes) or looking to shave off a full beard, the brand has got you covered. After all, Harry’s is known for delivering a comfortable shave without nicks, cuts, or tugging.

Harry’s Plus is the result of ten years of research, testing, and tireless iteration, and they’ve managed to offer a shaving experience that feels premium while staying honest in price - Harry’s founding promise.

Starting at £11, Harry's Plus is available online at Harry's.

Niacinamide Restorative Cream, Malin+Goetz 

If you want results without the faff of a 10-step routine, this is the one. Malin+Goetz's new Niacinamide Restorative Cream (£84) is its most advanced multi-benefit formula yet, clinically proven to tackle the six signs of ageing. Think hydration, firmness, lift, even tone, and softer-looking fine lines and wrinkles. After trying this, I’m rethinking my decision to have salmon sperm (otherwise known as polynucleotides) injected into my face…

Powered by niacinamide and a blend of gentle actives, the cream delivers serious results fast. In clinical trials, 94% of testers noticed visible improvements in just 24 hours, while hydration lasted for up to 72 hours after one use. In other words, it gives you the performance of a serum wardrobe in one streamlined step.

The launch is also getting a fashion-week moment. Malin+Goetz will host restorative sessions to showcase the cream’s potency in LFW’s NewGen space. But if you’re not at LFW, don’t worry. Bookable experiences will also run nationwide across Malin+Goetz apothecaries and Selfridges Manchester this September.
