21 Of The Best New Skincare Products for Spring 2023

I may have been in the beauty business for almost ten years, but there’s still nothing that excites me more than a new skincare launch. Trying and testing the latest and greatest launches is always a lesson in ingredient innovation and a great way to see how brands are interpreting the latest skincare trends and technologies.

Of course, skincare is incredibly personal, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned as a beauty editor and esthetician, it’s that any and every skin type and concern can benefit from a focus on soothing, hydrating, and repairing skin. And so far, that seems to be top of the agenda in 2023. Healing and nourishing products dominated the year’s first skincare launches, and the trend has continued into spring—so if you’ve got sensitive or breakout-prone skin, you’re in luck. La Roche-Posay have created a serum version of their famous Cicaplast Baume B5; Eve Lom has a new barrier-strengthening oil, and Medik8 just dropped the world’s first retinal and ceramide eye treatment. Plus (and while we know SPF is for life, not just for summer), there are a bunch of exciting new sunscreen launches from some of our favourite affordable skincare brands.

All of the above is welcome news for me and my tired post-winter skin. Between too much time spent in environments with dehydrating central heating, plus cold weather-induced dryness, my skin is dull, tired, sensitive, and officially in need of some major TLC – which thankfully spring 2023’s newest skincare launches provide.
