Halloween might be over, but we can officially count the number of weeks until Christmas on our hands and look forward to the festive season, which can only mean one thing for beauty lovers: pretty products, and lots of them! However, the sea of new products on the approach to Christmas can be daunting, so we've done the challenging task for you and listed our current favourite must-have new beauty products to help you choose the treat yourself-worthy buys and the potential early presents for yourself or loved ones.
The Soap Co. Mulberry and Amber Bar Soap
When purchasing The Soap Co.'s Mulberry and Amber Bar Soap (£9), you're not only buying a deliciously smelling addition to your shower routine, you're also helping provide jobs to those that are disabled or disadvantaged. — Tori Crowther, assistant editor
Bumble and Bumble Go Big Thickening Treatment
I've been using Bumble and Bumble's thickening spray on and off for years, and now they've launched a whole host of complimentary products. My hair is thick anyway, but the Bumble and Bumble Go Big Thickening Treatment (£24) really helps to keep volume in my roots, without making my hair feel sticky. For finer hair types, just use it all the way down to your ends! — Gemma Cartwright, senior editor
Morphe Glitter Fever Metallic Eyeshadow
I've never quite known when "party season" begins, but I feel more confident now that I've met Morphe Glitter Fever Metallic Eyeshadow (£12). My eyelids are certainly ready for the party with this glittering trio, that is statement-making without looking like your toting disco balls for eyes. — Lucy Kenny, assistant editor
Bali Body Hydrating Face & Body Mist
God bless the Aussies for launching Summer products all year round, because as it turns out, the Bali Body Hydrating Face & Body Mist (£18) isn't just good for sun-scorched skin after a day at the beach. It also does wonders when your skin is losing the will to live after too much exposure to central heating. Since I sit right by the heater at work, this is my desk saviour, and is saving me from drying out like a prune during the cold snap. — GC
Alessandra Steinherr x Primark Overnight Lip Mask
Lip balms are my beauty obsession, and it only took one use for the Alessandra Steinherr x Primark Overnight Lip Mask to make it onto my top three list. This little miracle in a tube is incredibly moisturising and affordable, and it gives the most beautiful shine to your lips. — Morgane Le Caer, assistant editor
Tropic Pure Lagoon Blemish Prevention Serum
As soon as I got my hands on Tropic Pure Lagoon Blemish Prevention Serum (£42), I slathered it on my face. The serum is made with blue spirulina to reduce inflammation and prebiotics to defend against acne-causing bacteria. Hormones make my dry skin unpredictable and prone to breakouts, but using this serum has kept my blemishes at bay without stripping my skin. — TC
Huxley Brightening Essence: Brightly Ever After
Once you get over the packaging (it's that good) and let Huxley into your heart, I suggest you let it into your purse as well. This Huxley Brightening Essence: Brightly Ever After (£38) is a worthy investment, offering *intense* hydration and defence against that mean old thing our pores know as pollution. It's like a refreshing iced tea and a Wonder Woman shield all in one. — LK
Avon Lip Tattoo — Give Me Heat
The single and only reason I don't wear red lipstick on a regular basis is because I'm scared of bleeding, smudging, and fading. The effort of constantly having to check how it looks is too much for me, until Avon Lip Tattoo — Give Me Heat (£7, originally £9) landed on my desk. No lies are being told with the name "tattoo", this stuff stays put and gradually fades during the day, leaving a gorgeous tint. I'll be wearing this all Winter long as I'm chowing down on roast dinners. — TC
Huxley Antioxidant Cream: Anti-Gravity
Korean skincare brand Huxley recently made its UK debut at Harvey Nichols, and my face is one of cleansed, moisturised gratitude. If you're in need of a face cream that can handle the colder months, I suggest Huxley Antioxidant Cream: Anti-Gravity (£33). The satisfyingly thick oil-cream formula melts into the skin and creates a protective barrier to say "boy bye" to pollution, stress, and environmental damage. London, do your worst. — LK
Morphe The Wingmen Liquid Liner Duo
The Morphe The Wingmen Liquid Liner Duo (£19) helped me discover eyeliner with glitter in it, and I don't think I'm ever turning back. The new Morphe Holiday Collection brought many, many delights, but for me, you can't go wrong with some bold liner, and now I'll be wearing this eyeliner with twinkling glitter running throughout. — TC
Collection Primed & Ready Antiblemish BB Cream
BB cream may now be a catch-all term for tinted moisturiser, but originally it meant "blemish balm", and was a fairly full-coverage product for spot-prone skin. That's exactly what Collection has delivered here with the Primed & Ready Anti-Blemish BB Cream (£6). The makeup brand has collaborated with Witch to create a mattifying base with antiblemish properties. It's a really great affordable find for oilier skin types: my pores basically disappeared! — GC
Ciaté Gelology Forbidden Fruit
Is Ciaté Gelology Forbidden Fruit (£12) the prettiest duochrome polish ever? I'm a nail biter who's gone back over to the dark side of acrylic extensions recently, and this gorgeous new shade is definitely top of my list for my next mani. It's like three polishes in one, depending on the light. — GC
Nip + Fab Dragon's Blood Fix Jelly Mask
I've always been a fan of Nip + Fab's dragon's blood range, which is perfect for my dry 30-something skin. The new Nip + Fab Dragon's Blood Fix Jelly Mask (£15) is really fun to use, and leaves me skin feeling plump, fresh, and soft. As a bonus, this tub is huge and you really don't need much to get results. — GC
Ardell Nail Addict Chrome Pink Foil
Why go all the way to the salon in this miserable weather when the Ardell Nail Addict Chrome Pink Foil (£11) does as good a job. Ardell has released a range of false nails with an array of hues and nail art, so you'll be spoilt for choice. — TC
Marie Reynolds Hydr8 Misting Veil
After cleansing, I've been spritzing Marie Reynolds Hydr8 Misting Veil (£30) all over before applying moisturiser and have noticed a boost in hydration as the weather gets increasingly colder! — TC
