Your beauty essentials are the most trending accessories now

The sunscreen you wear, that favourite lipstick, or the lip balm you can't live without - they're no longer just beauty staples. In 2025, your go-to beauty products are the hottest fashion Bieber stamped her approval on the trend by debuting Rhode's waist chain for lip balm. It's all part of the wearable beauty movement, where your favourite skincare and makeup essentials aren't meant to be hidden away in a bag, but flaunted as charms, phone accessories, or even this month, Bieber posted a set of bikini photos on Instagram, but what stole the show was her Rhode lip balm chain holder. Her lip balm suspended from a delicate gold waist chain, doubling up as a chic beach accessory. Hailey Bieber flaunts a lip balm waist chain as her beach buddy! But this isn't the first time she's turned her lip balm into an accessory. Back in 2024, she launched a phone cover designed to hold her lip balm and it went instantly viral. Even before Rhode officially entered the Indian beauty market, replicas of the balm-holder-meets-phone-case were everywhere. Hailey Bieber's lip balm holder-cum-mobile cover What really struck a chord wasn't just the cool upgrade to a basic phone case. It was the idea that beauty lovers could now wear their obsession. The humble lip balm, once just an everyday essential, was now a stylish living in times when using sunscreen daily and reapplying it every 3-4 hours is a lifestyle flex. Nothing says 'I'm in my wellness and self-love era' like a committed relationship with a broad-spectrum, non-comedogenic fact, suggesting someone start using sunscreen has become a love language. You want them to take care of themselves because you care. Beauty today isn't just about what it does to your skin. It's a reflection of your personality.

That's why mini sunscreens now come with loops — so you can hang them on your bag like a charm or clip them onto your jeans. Indian brands like Foxtale, Gush Beauty, and Lakme are embracing the trend, turning skincare into accessories with miniatures that come with latches, alongside regular-sized for instance, has a mini sunstick with a band. So does Gush Beauty – theirs is a colourful looking sunscreen stick. Foxtale sells a set of lip balms with a peppy pouch.

Hooked on beauty: Skincare that snaps and stays on

Skincare is no longer meant to be tucked away. It now hangs from your tote, peeks out from your collar, or snaps onto your wrist, far from makeup pouches and vanity drawers. .Dot and Key's clip-on sunscreen stick is perfect for commutes (L) and Hailey Rhode Bieber's viral Rhode lip balm phone case (R) With a drive towards customisation, brands are honing in on products that you can wear — literally. Wearable beauty is a growing category where makeup and skincare are designed for function as they travel with you and blend with your look for a visual statement. Packaging is the point What started out as a playful accessory trend is now a full-blown design shift. While travel pouches for lipsticks and lip balm charms existed, it was model-businesswoman Hailey Rhode Bieber's viral Rhode lip balm phone case that changed the game. Then came Victoria Beckham Beauty's scent necklace, all clean lines and quiet luxury. Singer Rihanna's Fenty soon followed with a capsule version of its gloss oil, designed to clip onto bags. From blush tube rings to fragrance-filled pendants and hand cream disguised as a bracelet, there has been no shortage of innovation. Brands closer to home are also taking notes. Dot and Key, for example, launched a clip-on sunscreen stick that's perfect for any commute, while Gush Beauty introduced a charm-like case that could easily be mistaken for a cute keychain, but instead holds a handy stick of sunscreen. LoveChild by Masaba also has pocket lipsticks that come in a coin pouch-style charm. Dot and Key co-founder Anisha Agarwal believes this shift is driven by the need for stylish utility. 'People want products that look good and fit into their lifestyle. If it's part of your outfit, you're more likely to use it,' she says. And that is key. From balms that clip to your keys or a sunblock that lives on your tote, wearable formats turn skincare into a habitual practice. Gen Z says 'yes' to personality It might be practical, but for the young segment of consumers, wearable beauty is also emotional. The market trends are clear: Gen Z wants products that are expressive, visible and personal. And that translates to skincare, too. For influencer Srishti Garg, wearable beauty adds a sense of ownership. 'It feels like I am carrying something that represents me. These are not just products. They are tiny reflections of who I am,' she says. Fellow creator Rida Tharana echoes the sentiment. 'Beauty that travels with you is the future,' she muses, adding, 'If something can look good, feel good, and make life easier while hanging off my bag, that is exactly the kind of product I want more of.' Make it your own With each piece, wearable becomes part of your routine and your aesthetic. And it's surprisingly easy to create one at home. To make your own, choose a travel-sized lip balm, sunscreen or roll-on perfume. Use a ribbon, hair tie or elastic loop to secure it, then slip it onto a keyring or clip, add a charm or beads if you like. Take inspo from beauty creator Swati Chauhan: 'I style my essentials the way I would my jewellery. A tinted balm with a velvet ribbon becomes a tote charm. For belt loops, I use gold key rings to clip on a mini blush stick; I've also repurposed a small silk coin pouch to hold my perfume.'

This means eye patches of various kinds are now readily available across a wide range of budgets. Suhana Khan and Hailey Bieber are among celebrities who swear by eye patches. Eye patches are silicone or gel-based pads soaked in serum, designed to be placed under the eyes for 10–30 minutes. They come in both single-use (mostly sold as a set of 30 patches) and reusable the single-use patches are infused with beneficial ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, retinol, snail mucin, and more to leave your under-eye area hydrated and brighter, the reusable silicone versions require you to apply your own skincare, like a serum, cream, or reusable patches help the ingredients penetrate more deeply and leave your under-eyes (and dry spots) feeling ultra-refreshed.

However, the results are very short term. If you don't apply it for a few days, the results vanish,' says Dr Deepali Bhardwaj, Delhi-based dermatologist and founder of Elska Skin delay ageing'The biggest benefit comes from eye patches that contain ingredients like collagen or hyaluronic acid, along with anti-ageing components.
