13 New Beauty Products to Try in 2015, Because the New Year is the Best Excuse for New Lipstick

With a new year comes tons of new beauty product launches from almost every beauty brand, whether at the drugstore or at Sephora. Hopefully one of your 2015 resolutions wasn't "Spend less money on makeup," because a lot of these launches are going to be hard to resist. Some of these are long-awaited necessities (yes I will take another lip crayon thank you very much), while others will fill a hole in your makeup bag that you didn't even know you had ('sup, mud cleanser?).

Here are a dozen of the most exciting new beauty products coming up in 2015, from a brand-new skin care line from the most wallet-friendly beauty brand to several gorgeous palettes that are worth the splurge. Some of these are already available, so hurry up and get clicking.

Burt's Bees Lip Crayons

Finally, Burt’s Bees has jumped on the lip crayon train. If you’re a fan of Revlon Matte Balms and Clinique Chubby Sticks, you’ll love these. They’ll give you a matte yet creamy lip, without any added fragrance and with hydrating ingredients such as Shea butter and jojoba oil. Best of all, they come in six gorgeous shades.
