Happy Holidays! Holiday Beauty Releases We Want NOW!

4 December, 2018 - 07:27pm by - Head Pixie | 21 Comments

By BR Kellie

Kellie Confession: I am a complete consumer.

Show me pretty makeup and I'm oohing and aaahing. Show me a cool new beauty gadget and I've ready to test it out. Innovation in skincare? You bet I'll be buying it. My credit card should really be taken off my hands. Especially at this time of the year... because the silly seaons sees brands releasing limited edition awesomeness and gift pack amazingness... and I want it all.

And I'm not the only one. The Beauty Review crew are every bit as enamoured by the goodies as I am... and because sharing is caring we thought we'd share some of the hot holiday releases with you that have us going all heart-eyed.

Ecoya Grand Madison Jar - Fresh Pine

Every since BR Merilyn gifted each of the BR Crew an Ecoya pine candle a few Christmas' ago, we've been hooked. It's like an old-school real-life Christmas tree in a candle. Fresh, piney, humming with festive cheer... with the added bonus of not having to vacuum up pine needles on the daily.

Hourglass Ambient Edit Volume 4

Hourglass powders are the things dreams are made of. They make makeup easy. Sweep and go. Sweep and go. Beautiful. As part of their holiday season releases Hourglass have created the Ambient Lighting Edit Volume 4. Six shades. Four best-sellers alongside two new ane exclusive powders. It's not the most affordable but it will make your skin look like an angel has breathed unicorn fart dust all over it.

MAC Shiny Pretty Extra Dimension Skinfinish

This year's Christmas collection, Shiny Pretty Things, from MAC is all THAT! The glittery eyeshadoes. The festive red lipstick and lipglass. The cosmetic and brush makeup packs. All the swoons. But it's Snow Flushed that has caught our eye - especially when we got wind of it being a giant version of last year's epic Stylishly Merry eyeshadow. Who's flushed with excitement? We are! And it's not from the snow!

Bobbi Brown Mini Shimmer Brick

For the person who loves to get their glow on this limited edition mini Shimmer Brick from Bobbi Brown is sure to elicit a gasp of joy. (There's also a limited edition Bobbi Brown mini highlighting powder too!)

Sephora Collection Magic in the Eyes

Can Sephora just hit our shores good and proper already? How cute is this limited edition set? A black eye pencil and a nude shadow - that's an eye look ready to rock right there! 

Fenty Beauty Killawatt Foil Freestyle Highlighter Palette

Princess RiRi brings it again. She has the makeup midas touch. The Fenty Beauty Killawatt Foil Freestyle Highlighter Palette features a range of highlighter shades that can take you from woe to glow! Best of all they can double as eyeshadows - so if a purple or blue highlight isn't your thing you can pop the shades on your eyes.

Lancome Holiday L'Absolu Rouge Cream

Is there anything more festive than a red lippy? Aside from a pile of pressies under the tree with our name on then we say NO. There is not. And his holiday release from Lancome is to be adored. A gorgeous shade of red, a star-embossed bullet, encased in gold packaging. Stunning.

Too Faced Gingerbread Spice Eyeshadow Palette

Does it get any more Christmassier than this? An eyeshadow palette that is infused with the tummy-rumbling scent of gingerbread? We'd just be sitting round the office with our noses to the palette all day... And we don't see that as a bad thing.

Ciaté Glitter Storm Eyeshadow Palette

Bold bright eyeshadows aren't everyone's cup of tea - nor are a million shades in a palette that you probably won't use - which is why we loooooove this release from Ciaté. The Glitter Storm palette features six very wearable shades with three glitters. Oh, and can we talk about the packaging? The glitter and stars float around and it's soooooo watchable. How do I know? Soon as it came out I bought it. This is a keeper that will take you from day to night, from party to party with ease!

Molton Brown Muddled Plum Bath & Shower Gel

While sniffing an eyeshadow palette in the office is one thing, walking around and sniffing yourself in public is quite the other... But once people get a whiff of this delicious holiday release from Molton Brown we think they'll understand.

So there you have it - some of the holiday releases that have well and truly taken our fancy. It's a great time to be alive! So, have you had your eye on any of these? Are there other Christmas releases on your wish list? Spill the beans... because consumer sharing is consumer caring!

I love the Too Faced Gingerbread Spice palette, my Son's girlfriend would love one for Christmas I bet. Also the Sephora Magic Eyes limited edition set, a perfect present.

12th December, 2018

It's all about the glam and glitter this holiday season eh? :) Love that candle though!

12th December, 2018

Love the sound of the Ecoya candle could do with some of them. And the Plum shower gel this sounds so good

10th December, 2018

Hmmmm that Pine candle sounds like what i need since this year we opted out of a real tree and that plum shower gel sound delish!

9th December, 2018

It's always the Too Faced products that catch my eye.

6th December, 2018

I like the idea of the plum shower gel I like to smell nice and plum seems like something a bit different. The hour glass I would love to try I have not ever tried anything from that brand. Bobbi Brown looks good to me too

6th December, 2018

Would love to try some of that Muddled Plum bath and shower gel and the gorgeous Lancome Holiday red lipstick,oh boy,I can see my hubbys credit card being used here.Lovely collection of goodies :)

6th December, 2018

I really like the Mac Shiny Pretty Things since I'm really into highlighters atm but I already bought myself so many shiny pretty things I really need to reign in on my spending. Note to self: Save, save, save for Boxing Day sales. I did get myself the Hourglass Ambient Edit Unlocked palette which had six limited edition shades and is gorgeous, it sold out pretty fast too. I'd like the second Ambient Lighting Edit Volume 4 palette but I can't afford both.

5th December, 2018

I would love anything Fenty beauty for Christmas!

5th December, 2018

Love the smell of the old Christmas tree and I miss it since we have an artificial one. The candle sounds lovely not that I need to spend more money lol.

5th December, 2018

Oh my goodness - what a beautiful selection!

5th December, 2018

Ciaté Glitter Storm palette yes please! I like the idea of the Ecoya pine candle as we dont have real xmas tree's now but would definitely want to smell first before an impulse buy.

5th December, 2018

Hour Glass powder and muddled plum bath gel does it for me -Lovely ideas for xmas presents too.

5th December, 2018

I love the look of the palettes and that Plum shower gel. Such a gorgeous colour! My kitty has had expensive vet bills so have had to cut back on spending majorly.

4th December, 2018
