My summer countdown usually starts on the first day of fall. However, with social distancing still in place and travel completely off the cards for the foreseeable future, it's tough to get excited about what's arguably the best time of year.

Throughout quarantine, beauty products have given me a little bit of comfort and made the stress and challenges of our current reality seem more manageable.

But even though everyone's daily routines have changed and the beauty industry has been greatly impacted by COVID-19, brands haven't stopped launching new products.

Briogeo's repairing hair mask, HoliFrog's glow-boosting cleanser, and Gucci Westman's velvety eyeshadows are just a few examples.

Ahead, 15 new beauty products to give yourself some extra self-care while stuck at home.

$9

For sensitive skin, simply washing your face with the wrong cleanser can set off a reaction. Fans of no-rinse cleansers with temperamental skin will love Vichy's micellar water. It's infused with soothing vitamin B5 to prevent redness and that tight, dried-out feeling that some face washes leave behind.

So, you got your stress-related breakouts under control but now you're left with dark spots. That's where Zitsticka's microdart patches come in. Infused with a mix of brightening, regenerating ingredients like niacinamide, kojic acid, ascorbic acid, and hyaluronic acid, the patches dilute post-acne damage over time. The brand recommends sticking the microdart patches on dark spots every three days for a total of two weeks for the best results.

Celebrity makeup artist Gucci Westman spent two years getting the latest addition to her Westman Atelier line just right, and her first launch into eyeshadows is worth the wait. Whether you apply the cream-powder shadow with your fingertip or a brush, it glides on like a dream with rich color payoff. The crease-free shadows come in two collections with three shades each: Le Jours is a set of soft tones, while Les Nuits is a set of deep shades.

$44 (available June 16)

The cool thing about powder cleansers is that they're completely customizable. Mixing in a little bit of water will give you a strong scrub, while more water will give you mild exfoliation. On top of plant-based skin-refining enzymes, vitamin C is the star of Holifrog's powder cleanser because of its brightening effect and daytime antioxidant protection. And just like that, you found your new morning cleanser.

Matte lipstick isn't going anywhere, but have you tried lip powder? Let Rouje's gorgeous vintage-inspired palette be your introduction to powders. Why make the switch? While powders are shine-free like traditional mattes, they don't smudge — ever. Rouje reimagined the four shades in its classic palette as powders for that blurred, lived-in lip that's a French beauty staple. The shades look equally amazing swiped across your cheeks or eyelids, too.
