Launch Digest: Sporty Sensuality, Elevated Cookie Nostalgia, Bras From 1876, and Chrissy Teigen’s Go-To

If You Give a Muse a Cookie

We’ve never met a cookie we didn’t like, but that doesn’t mean that all cookies are created equal. This week, two of the most “famous” cookie brands added new ways to enjoy their goods. Not a requirement, but we’ll take ours warmed.

• Legendary cookie brand Last Crumb created two, totally new boxes for more niche celebrations—Have Your Cake, which embodies nostalgic celebration flavors while The Lover’s Box will turn up the heat and set the mood for any seductive appetite. Try not to eat the whole box in one go. We dare you.
• Levain is bringing back one of its most 2024 popular flavors—the Lemon Cookie. It’s a classic Levain cookie that is soft, thick, thicc, and generously sprinkled with sweet / tart lemon chips. PS: If you’re in NYC, you can get their NEW Lime Bramble Iced Tea for an extra spring tongue pop.

Set the Mood

Spring has sprung, which has us all ready to “put ourselves out there” whether we’re awake or asleep. The below launches are keeping the sessi vibes going with witchy, French wellness energy that will set the tone for the new season ahead (and szn, if you know what we mean!).

• Press-on nail guru Glamnetic has tapped at spring’s door with their Spring French Tip Collection. It comes in three Parisian color hues with salon-quality thickness, a high-shine UV topcoat, and effortlessly sleek shapes sans salon visit. Ouaaaaiiisssss.
• Chantelle has been in the undergarment game since 1876, so we trust their Parisian sensibility when it comes to our second skin. Their newest collection, Something More, is the brand’s first global campaign since 2007 (!), encouraging a mindset shift for women to feel empowered, playful, and embodied.
• Australian brand IMBIBE knows that “collagen” is one of our dopamine trigger words. Their latest Collagen Lips Rich Red is as healing as it is sexy, leveraging clinically proven collagen peptides and essential fatty acids to deliver a kiss-worthy plump whether you’re out on the town or getting your beauty sleep (literally).
• To keep our immune systems up to snuff for the spring season, Barrière dropped its Camp Be Well Kit, which includes vitamin D, B12, and melatonin patches that will keep you energized, relaxed, or mood boosted no matter where you are. This kit obvi also comes with a custom keychain, pin, and postcard to bring back any Girl Scout memories you may have been repressing.

Base Layers

As we spring forward, our skin needs a totally different kind of refurbishing and rebooting. We took note of brands cleaning the skin slate with renewers and protectors for all the levity (and hopefully sun) that is to come.

• Chrissy Teigen is a Le Prunier stan for a reason. The celeb-revered brand just dropped their Plumtox™ Clarifying Enzyme Mask, which uses a proprietary extract derived from antioxidant-rich plums for a gentle exfoliation that will leave you with brighter, plumper, healthier skin. There’s a reason the word “plum” lives in “plump.”
• ‍Glossier’s Milk Jelly Universe has just expanded with the Milky Jelly Cleansing Balm. It uses a tri-phase formula, comprising gel, oil, and milk, to wash away makeup, sunscreen, and daily impurities all at once.
• If you’re looking for a clean sunscreen that will treat your skin like a f***ing queen, smooth OGEE’s new Skin Enhancing Primer SPF 40 on your face. It uses skin-loving antioxidant for extra support and can serve as the ultimate base for your makeup or be used on its own.
• This isn’t Tower 28’s first foray into makeup, and it certainly won’t be its last. Their latest GetSet™ Matte Powder Blush is a blush and setting powder in one (aka the first of its kind). Not only does it stay locked in for daylong wear, but it also stays true to the brand’s compliance with the National Eczema Association.‍
  

Before You Go…

Random happenings that would seemingly make your very cool mom very, very happy.

• Erewhon and MALK are back at it again with a new celeb collab—this time with The Wellness From Scratch Smoothie from Nara Smith. Expect endless wellness for your skin, bone, and joint health (with citrus blossom sea moss to boot). Hate to bring it up again, but don’t forget the $19 strawberry while you’re at it!
• Hedley & Bennett is like, the go-to apron brand for anyone who knows anything about looking cute in the kitchen (Chef Bae for proof). Their newest Garden Lemons Essential Apron is giving us Springtime Outdoor Cooking Energy, making us almost energized enough to invite our friends over.
• Plastic wrap, be gone! Stasher has just launched their Stasher Stretch Lids in four different sizes for the most seamless leftover tool you’ve ever encountered. Once you stretch lid (now a verb), you’ll see that caring about things like kitchen storage and preservation are age-agnostic.
• Find good, clean fun in the kitchen with Great Jones’ latest collection—Fine Lines. From bowls to baking dishes to casserole dishes, their latest is high-quality, durable, and totally non-toxic.
