Beautytap Awards 2025: Top Editor’s Picks for the Best Body Care + Fragrance Products

Beauty innovation flourished in 2025 with extraordinary products spanning cutting-edge technology, iconic brand masterpieces, and physician-developed breakthroughs.

Beautytap’s highly discerning Editorial Team tested, assessed, and curated this collection to showcase exceptional formulations and new must-have skincare, makeup, fragrance, and haircare essentials.​

From Hollywood studios to French vineyards, New Zealand shores to Vermont farms, these editor-approved choices earned their recognition through impressive results and ingredient integrity. Whether harnessing LED therapy, ancient botanicals, biomimetic peptides, or time-honored ingredients reimagined for modern skincare, each offers powerful benefits worth celebrating.

Hand Cream – Beau Domaine The Hand & Nail Cream

From France's sun-kissed Rhône Valley vineyards comes hand care with panache. Beau Domaine's The Hand & Nail Cream is a collaboration between nature, science, virtuoso winemakers, and Brad Pitt. Upcycled vine root extract targets age spots while antioxidant-rich grape actives combat signs of aging. Chamomile and green tea smooth fine lines. Organic grape water, sustainably sourced shea butter, and estate-harvested olive oil create a velvety barrier that nourishes deeply for manicured hands. We say santé!

Body Treatment – Tronque Firming Butter

Elevate body care with Tronque Firming Body Butter, a decadent treatment that moisturizes while firming skin. This award-winning cream combines shea, cacao, and mango butters with biotech ceramides, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide for revitalization. The hero ingredients—Atlantic Ocean kelp and rare New Zealand red seaweed—provide instant hydration and tightening, while red maple bark enhances elasticity and brilliance. The 100% natural formula absorbs beautifully without residue; and spa-worthy skin feels supple with every application.

24 Hour Body Serum – Uni

You have facial serums and scalp serums, but when was the last time you did something meaningful for the skin on your body? Body serums have been around for the last 15 years, but our forced “shelter in place” lifestyle in 2020 taught us to take care of ourselves from head to toe.

Uni’s 24-Hour Body Serum does more than just make your skin glisten. It hydrates, exfoliates, and triggers collagen production, so skin feels smoother and elastic. The marine extracts and juniper give it a beachy vibe but remember to wear sunscreen because citrus extracts can make skin more sensitive to the sun.

Next Generation Hand Sanitizer – Touchland Rainwater Hand Sanitizer

Remember when you didn’t have a bottle of hand sanitizer on your desk, in your purse, AND in your car? Pre-COVID, right? Well, some things are here to stay, so it’s time to stock up on something better than basic alcohol-heavy gel sanitizer. If you apply it regularly, your hands are probably looking dry and chapped.

Touchland’s Rainwater Hand Sanitizer turns a chore into self-care worth doing. The micro-mist dries quickly without leaving that sticky gel sensation behind. It also smells clean, like the air after a summer shower. Aloe vera keeps the alcohol in check, delivering moisture even as the mist sanitizes your skin. And Touchland uses fermented radish root as both a skin conditioner and natural preservative, so the formula remains stable and ready at a moment’s notice.

Mochi Milk by DedCool

Mochi Milk by DedCool is a comfort fragrance where sweet rice milk, marshmallow, peach nectar, sandalwood, and jasmine petals sweetly swirl together. This gender-neutral gourmand, a Beautytap darling with 4.7 stars and 435 reviews, feels like plush cashmere.

Duke’s Carpet by ānti

Duke's Carpet by ānti steps straight into a refined London lounge: zesty Amalfi lemon, ginger, and cardamom open the door before a gin-and-juniper heart settles into warm amber, vintage leather, and woody spice for a mysteriously dapper flair.

Both scents celebrate individuality with clean, vegan formulas free of harmful chemicals. One offers gentle warmth, the other commands attention.
