Woolworths just got a beauty makeover with these three sweet and unexpected launches

Three very different launches have arrived, bringing together lip care, body moisturiser and even chocolate in ways that make a routine trip to the supermarket feel a little more exciting.

From a cult lip balm brand adding a glossy twist to its line-up, to a nostalgic confectionery collaboration that has somehow made chocolate part of your beauty routine, these are the drops worth knowing about.

Carmex has been keeping lips moisturised for more than 85 years, but its latest launch is giving the classic lip-care brand a much glossier personality.

The new Carmex Lip Gloss with Shimmer combines the brand’s signature hydrating approach with a lightweight, glossy finish and subtle shimmer. Essentially, it sits somewhere between your trusty lip balm and the shiny gloss you reach for when you want your lips to look a little more polished.

The formula comes in three flavour-inspired options: Raspberry, Watermelon and Vanilla . Raspberry brings a fruity sweetness, Watermelon has a refreshing scent, while Vanilla leans into a creamy, smooth profile.

Each one leaves a sheer finish, making it an easy option for throwing into your handbag and applying without needing a mirror-perfect lip look.

It launches at Woolworths on 17 August for $10.99 , making this one of the more affordable ways to add a little shimmer to your everyday beauty routine.

Vaseline has teamed up with FUNDAY for a limited-edition collection inspired by the scents and colours of everyone’s favourite sugary treats. Available exclusively at Woolworths, the range takes a very familiar skincare staple and gives it a decidedly more playful personality.

There are three scents to choose from, each with its own take on dessert-inspired fragrance.

Strawberry & Cream Delight is a lightweight moisturiser containing niacinamide with a berry-inspired scent, while Refreshing Peach pairs a lightweight formula containing niacinamide with a fresh peach fragrance.

Then there is Caramel Indulgence, which goes all in on the dessert vibes. The ultra-hydrating formula contains lipids and promises 48-hour moisturisation, while still leaving a non-greasy finish.

The colourful packaging and sweet fragrances are designed to make applying body lotion feel less like another box to tick off and more like a small treat in your day.

Each 300ml bottle costs $10 and the collection launches exclusively at Woolworths on 17 August.

And then there is the collaboration nobody had on their beauty bingo card.
