 Plus, How to Go Red For Fall!  |  | | Greetings from the inaugural edition of InStyle’s Beauty Dispatch, a weekly newsletter spotlighting new products, trends, and treatments, curated by yours truly. I must say, the peak fall timing of its introduction feels right. From fuzzy knits to the swirl of autumn leaves, cozy season is my favorite, and naturally, I’m thinking about all the beauty accouterments that come with it: richer, warmer hair colors; darker, moodier makeup; sensorial skin treatments; and of course, fragrances that evoke the first crackle of a fireplace. If you apply a the-more-layers-the-better attitude to your fall wardrobe and your hair (hello, shag!), you are in the right place, I assure you. | | — Lauren Valenti, InStyle Beauty Director | | | | |  | | PHOTO: LAUREN VALENTI | | What’s on Lauren’s Desk | | This week brought me an array of new makeup delights, including Jillian Dempsey's innovative FLYK Trick mascara, which doubles as a liquid liner thanks to its built-in cat-eye stamp tip—genius! And feeling extra inspired by the fall foilage, I can't wait to play with Pat McGrath Labs' jewel-toned Bijoux Brilliance eyeshadow palette and a trio of lip oils from Addiction Tokyo—the cult-favorite Japanese brand that has finally launched in the U.S.! With all this test-driving, Uma’s just-launched oil cleanser will come in handy and boasts a truly invigorating frankincense-laced scent. To further stimulate the senses, I’ll be reaching for Tory Burch’s vetiver fragrance oil, dabbed on the wrists and behind the ears for a grounding dose of earth and spice. | | | | | BEAUTY TIP OF THE WEEK | | | Up the drama with a colored mascara, like Hermès Beauty's new Trait d'Hermès formula, concentrating extra product on the outer corners for a cat-eye effect. | | — Gregoris Pyrpylis, makeup artist and creative director for Hermès Beauty | | | | | EMPTY OF THE WEEK | | If you’ve marveled at a Hollywood glow lately, chances are it was the handiwork of facialist Iván Pol. In September, I left his treatment table feeling like a ’90s supermodel and have been maintaining the results by slathering on his new SS02 Snatching Sauce each morning. The melts-right-in serum blends essential fatty acids, ceramides, and phytocholesterols together to nourish and improve the elasticity of the skin, giving me both an instant glow and a tighter, brighter complexion over time. | | | | |  | | PHOTO: LAUREN VALENTI | | Q+A with Lauren | | Q: I want to dye my hair red without the full-on commitment. Is this possible and, if so, how?! | A: Feeling the urge for change at the beginning of fall, I asked my colorist, Jenna Perry, the very same question! A natural redhead herself, Jenna is a master with reds—even those of the more short-lived variety! Instead of a permanent dye job, she gave me a vibrant gloss, which deposited a tint of rich, lustrous crimson over my blonde hair. I couldn’t believe how dramatically my hair was transformed with minimal time and no harm to my curls. In between glossing treatments, I’ve been using the Davines Alchemic conditioner (which is spiked with semi-permanent pigments) to maintain the tone of my red. Pure magic!
