The Best Beauty Products of 2025, According To The Harrods Beauty Team

Nishane Oudous Lux Solis
“Created exclusively for Harrods by renowned perfumer Jordi Fernandez, this fragrance offers a striking contrast of tropical fruits, mandarin and pomelo, anchored by a rich base of oud and patchouli. The result is a scent that is truly unique, deeply addictive, and utterly mesmerising. It’s no surprise that this creation is quickly becoming one of our most beloved Harrods exclusives.”

Valerie Waite, fragrance buyer

Parfums de Marly Valaya Exclusif
“The Parfums de Marly Valaya Exclusif is a stunning new fragrance that is fast becoming one of my new favourite fragrances. It’s everything that the original Valaya is but with an added elegance; it’s super sensual, and it’s a really comforting fragrance. Ideal for all occasions from weddings to a date night evening to becoming your daily signature scent.”

Valerie Waite, fragrance buyer 

Tom Ford Oud Voyager

“Oud Voyager is bold, yes, but tempered with warm woods and subtle spice. This one stands out as a scent you wear with intent, not just for others to smell, but for yourself to note and feel.”

Jo Malone Amber Labdanum
“I’m truly captivated by this new Jo Malone fragrance - it’s the ideal scent for a warm, sun-drenched evening or a winter getaway. Vibrant bitter orange notes intertwine with rich amber and a creamy vanilla musk base, creating a fragrance that is both sensual and opulent. This is definitely one to add to your must-have collection."

Valerie Waite, fragrance buyer

Memo Paris Abu Dhabi
“Abu Dhabi by Memo Paris smells like warm, balmy summer nights – there’s a gorgeous date note at the heart that makes it feel rich yet easy to wear. It’s the kind of fragrance I’d spritz before heading out in the evening when I want to add a touch of allure.”

Nasreen Osman, deputy beauty editor

Maison Crivelli Oud Cadenza
“This Harrods Worldwide exclusive fragrance is a masterpiece crafted by the genius of Jordi Fernandez alongside founder Thibault Crivelli. Maison Crivelli’s Oud Cadenza is an oud that I challenge anyone not to love; it’s a true oud but with the distinctive sweetness of dates, almond notes and toasted sugar cane. It is now available in a 100ml size and the original 50ml.”

Medik8 Liquid Peptides Advanced MP
“A masterclass in skincare engineering! Peptides help firm skin, marine collagen supports elasticity, and it has a decadent texture that doesn't weigh skin down. In just a few uses I saw a visible glow, making it one of those creams you’ll want front row in your routine.”

“For a face oil that's both lightweight and intensely hydrating, look no further than TempleSpa's Trufflelift Firming & Lifting Facial Oil. The weightless formula melts into the skin with a blend that includes a host of nourishing oil extracts, biomimetic olive squalane, Vitamin E & C and truffle extract, giving your complexion a fresh, firm and bright appearance.”

Prada Beauty Pradascope Mascara
“Prada Beauty make-up  was one of my favourite launches last year. But I did wonder why there wasn’t that everyday make-up staple, a mascara. Well, it turns out it takes time to create greatness, and finally, we’re being treated to the  Pradascope Mascara. Inspired by one of Prada’s most recognisable materials, the re-nylon (regenerated nylon), the brush uses nylon fibre bristles to coat each individual lash from root to tip. It also has hyaluronic acid, which helps to keep lashes healthy and looking glossy – very Prada. The finish is an intense black, but don’t fret; it comes off very easily at the end of the day. This is one mascara that was worth the wait.”

Verity Clark, deputy beauty editor  

Hourglass Illusion Luminous Glow Foundation SPF 30
“This  hybrid foundation  blends the protective qualities of broad-spectrum SPF 30 protection with medium coverage for a radiant complexion. The texture? Featherlight. The finish? Hydrated and glowy. It also boasts Advanced Hydra-Smoothing Technology to help soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.”

Nasreen Osman, deputy beauty editor 

Huda Beauty Lip Contour Stain
“Run, don’t walk if it’s available, this is one to snap up fast. I love how it gives a softly blurred tint with a featherlight feel and impressive all-day wear. On those hectic, on-the-go days when I don’t have time for constant touch-ups, this is the perfect lip product to keep my look effortlessly fresh and long-lasting.”

Eve Fuller, make-up and international buyer  

Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Matte Blur Setting Spray
“The original is already a backstage and beauty bag classic and this new matte edition lives up to the hype. It sets makeup with the same locked-in finish, now with a fresh soft-matte veil that keeps shine in check without sacrificing that signature airbrushed glow.”

Eve Fuller, make-up and international buyer 

Gisou Honey Gloss Ceramide Therapy Hair Mask
“Gisou’s Honey Gloss Ceramide Therapy Hair Mask leaves my hair feeling sumptuously soft and looking incredibly healthy. This has quickly become a must-have in my haircare routine.”

ghd Chronos Max
“I gave up straightening my thick, curly hair years ago to nurse my bleached strands back to full health, but once in a while, I do feel the urge to don a sleek, straight look. I love that the new  Ghd Chronos Max  has larger, wider plates, so I don’t have to give my strands a second or third pass. Plus, it maintains a 185 °C temperature for minimal heat damage. Consider this a must if you have long, curly hair but love a pin-straight moment.”

Nasreen Osman, deputy beauty editor 

Colour Wow Insta-Wow Advanced Dry Shampoo
“Developing the Insta-Wow Advanced Dry Shampoo, Color Wow’s team analyses and targets what’s often wrong with products in the category. Instead of masking oils, its formula acts like a regular shampoo by breaking down impurities without any residual cast, leaving nothing but glossy hair behind.”

Lilly Perkins, active skin & hair buyer 

Murad Retinal ReScuplt Body Treatment
“My New Year’s beauty resolution was to start taking better care of my body. The product that inspired me to up my body care game was this 90-day Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment from Murad. The thick, rich formula delivers the luxury experience that I want from a body moisturiser, but it comes with the added, and very welcome, benefit of encapsulated retinal that’s just shy of prescription-grade stuff. The result is a body cream that does more than just moisturise; if used consistently (I’m trying!), it really does help to smooth skin and give a more even-looking appearance. A body care product that delivers facial skincare-grade results? I’m in.”

Verity Clark, deputy beauty editor 

Drowsy Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask
“The Drowsy Mulberry Sleep Mask elevates sleep routines — crafted from pure mulberry silk, it blocks out every trace of light while feeling impossibly soft against your skin. It’s the kind of nightly ritual that doesn’t just improve rest, but elevates it into a moment of indulgence.”

Nateisha Scott, beauty editor

Sol de Janeiro Delicia Drench Shower Oil
“Not only does the Cheriosa 59 scent in the  Delicia Drench Shower Oil  have you feeling like you’re showering in heaven, but the texture of this Sol de Janeiro body wash is divine. The oil-to-foam texture leaves your skin feeling incredibly hydrated and silky soft.”

Lilly Perkins, active skin & hair buyer
