Welcome to Last Drop, where you can discover the newest and buzziest beauty launches hitting shelves near you.
For August, Chanel wants to give you a chance—literally. The iconic French brand launched the sixth fragrance within their Chance collection—Chance Eau de Fraîche. Perfect for summertime, this scent has a sparkling citrusy aroma mixed with jasmine, and when it dries down, it mellows out with a warm aroma of teak wood, for a woodsy appeal. The smell is not too overpowering but definitely has a soft, feminine appeal.
Part toner, part serum Mario Badescu’s Hydrating Glow Toner contains jojoba oil, hyaluronic acid, and PHA’s to replenish, moisturize, and exfoliate your skin. PHA’s are larger molecules in comparison to AHAs or BHAs—because of their size, they don’t penetrate as deeply into the skin and are great exfoliant for those with more sensitive skin tones. If you are looking for a gentle exfoliant with soothing properties, Badescu’s latest product is for you.
