Editors' Picks: New launches from Phlur, Jones Road Beauty, What's That Patch and more...

Here are some of this week’s news and features highlights handpicked by TheIndustry.beauty team.

Vanilla Skin Body Oil, Phlur

I have a soft spot for anything vanilla done well, and Phlur’s Vanilla Skin has been living rent-free in my fragrance rotation for a while now. So when I heard the brand was extending the line again - this time into a body oil - I was immediately interested.

Vanilla Skin started life as a body mist that quietly became a Space NK bestseller (75 bottles a day doesn’t lie), before evolving into an Eau de Parfum and deodorant. Now, it lands in body oil form. Launching exclusively at Space NK this month, this is one for fragrance lovers who want their scent to linger long after they’ve left the room.

The fragrance itself is everything I want from a modern gourmand: creamy vanilla without being sickly, softened by sandalwood, and lifted with a sparkle of pink pepper and sugar crystals. It’s the kind of scent people ask about.

What really elevates it, though, is the formula. Lightweight, silky and fast-absorbing, the oil is packed with ceramide-rich floral oils, skin-barrier-loving squalane and a hit of vitamin C - AKA, it leaves your skin looking glossy without that sticky finish some body oils leave behind.

If you love vanilla, layering, or just want your skin to feel as good as it smells, this one’s for your January wishlist.

The Body Collection, Jones Road Beauty

While putting on my make-up this morning, it occurred to me that since I first had the opportunity to try Jones Road Beauty (probably about four years ago now), there hasn’t been a day gone by when I haven’t used at least one of its multi-tasking miracle products. And it is the aptly named Miracle Balm that mostly makes the daily appearance.

Now legendary MUA Bobbi Brown has extended her range into body, and I can see these becoming a daily essential too. We reported the launch over Christmas, but it is officially available from this week.

The collection comprises five ceramide-enriched 'intentional formulas’: Body Cream, Body Lotion, Body Oil, Body Scrub and Shower Gel.

It sets out to comfort dryness, restore softness, and support overall skin health. It is lightly scented with citrusy and floral notes to bring a touch of luxury to daily routines.

The shower gel is a great daily cleanse, while the scrub preps the skin for moisturising. If you need a boost, use the oil on damp skin, while the cream is great for winter months and the lighter lotion is perfect for summer.

All bases covered. I’m sold. And I love the minimalist packaging too.

Priced from £36-44 and available now from Jones Road Beauty.

Multi-Bright Milky Toner and Multi-Bright Advanced Serum, Naturium

Naturium is tapping into the growing "glass skin" trend with two new additions to its range. I love a dewy, glass-like finish, so this definitely has my interest. Here's what you need to know...

The Multi-Bright Milky Toner (£19) is formulated to exfoliate and hydrate, revealing a more radiant complexion. It combines an azelaic acid derivative with a fermented grape extract complex and the amino acid arginine to gently resurface the skin, smooth texture, and reduce the appearance of dark spots. A rice milk blend and licorice root extract also help moisturise and strengthen the skin barrier.

Meanwhile, the Multi-Bright Advanced Serum (£26) features a lactic and glycolic acid complex with L-arginine for "gentle yet effective exfoliation". The formula also includes a superfood complex and naturally derived fruit extracts to boost radiance, improve texture, and even skin tone. Plus, allantoin and bisabolol work to soothe and moisturise the skin barrier, leaving the complexion "healthy and glowing".

The new launches can be used together or individually, and are designed to enhance clarity, boost glow and improve overall skin texture through gentle daily exfoliation and hydration. Both products will be available online and in-store at Space NK from 27 January.

What's That Patch

I'm well into my wellbeing era now and my mornings consist of a 'shot of this, and a scoop of that' being added to my protein shake. Sometimes I'm not sure whether I'm full from the benefits of the protein and add-ins or the sheer volume of supplements that I've consumed.

So when What's That Patch landed on my desk, I was very happy, to say the least. What's That Patch delivers a continuous dose of vitamins, nutrients, and scientifically backed ingredients through a transdermal format worn on the skin, supporting your body's natural rhythm throughout the day. So you can get some (or all, to be honest) of your supplements via patch rather than ingesting them.

The daily patches are designed to be worn for eight hours, delivering steady, targeted support, and the brand says to rotate the application site daily for best results. The brand has added two new additions to its range: Bounce Back and Collagen Pro.

Bounce Back - "Created for those needing recovery after long nights or demanding days, this patch replenishes essential nutrients, restores hydration, and supports natural detoxification, helping you feel more like yourself, faster."

Key ingredients include a vitamin B complex, which supports nervous system recovery and reduces oxidative stress; L-Glutamine, which aids in restoring gut lining integrity and enhancing post-stress recovery; and choline, which protects against liver damage and supports detoxification pathways. There's also beetroot extract, which provides high antioxidant activity to protect hepatic function; glutathione, which enhances detoxification capacity and reduces oxidative stress; and potassium, which replenishes lost electrolytes and supports fluid balance.

Collagen Pro - "Skin support from the inside out that supports natural collagen renewal, enhancing skin elasticity, hydration, and firmness. It's formulated to nourish skin, joints, and tissue over time."

Key ingredients include vitamin C, which supports collagen synthesis and provides antioxidant protection; amino acids, which play a critical role in stimulating collagen production and improving skin structure; and tremella mushroom extract, which boosts natural hyaluronic acid synthesis for skin hydration. Meanwhile, blueberry extract inhibits collagen breakdown and reduces UV-induced skin aging; black tea extract improves skin elasticity and helps reduce wrinkle formation; and seaweed extract stimulates collagen expression and acts as a potent antioxidant.

What's That Patch prices start at £19.00, available online.
