Even though it can be totally sweltering, August is the month when beauty brands launch their big fall releases—that’s how they gear up for the “back to reality” shopping rush we all feel when we realize we do indeed need to get our shit together. (I, for one, am squeezing in a hair appointment tomorrow with DJ Quintero before the NYFW rush next week!) This month was as impressive as we hoped, blessing us with our favorite Pat McGrath eye shadow palette to date and an affordable scalp scrub from & Other Stories’ new hair-care line. We even nabbed the new Dior liquid lip colors that dispense through felt-tip pens. The forecast calls for a very good-looking fall.

& Other Stories Hair Scrub: If you are a dry-shampoo addict or still subscribe to the “less washing is better” myth, remember that your scalp is skin and a healthy scalp leads to healthy hair. In fact, if it gets too dirty in there, you can actually halt hair growth. Try using a scalp scrub every other week.
