New Makeup Releases: Release Dates, Shades & Prices

Urban Decay has launched Chrome Melts High-Pigment Metallic Eyeshadow, a single chrome eyeshadow in five shades priced at $26 each in the US. It is on sale now at Ulta Beauty and online only at Sephora as of October 2026.

Urban Decay's other new launch this season is the Urban Decay When Sip Happens Lip Toy Duo, a limited-edition Sephora app exclusive.

What's New

According to Urban Decay, Chrome Melts uses freeze-dried technology, described on the Sephora listing as a "liquid-to-frozen cryo-extraction process." The brand says this locks in emollient-coated pigments for a buttery feel, easy pickup and richer colour payoff.

Urban Decay describes the result as an "explosive multi-dimensional chromatic finish" with a silky, blendable texture that "melts onto lids." The campaign images call it "our most multi-dimensional eyeshadow" and "our most buttery formula yet."

Key ingredients on the Sephora ingredient list include:

• Silica
• Aluminum powder, which gives the metallic effect
• Squalane
• Glycerin
• Tocopherol

Shades

The metallic eyeshadow comes in five shades. Two are foils, one is a triple chrome shift and two are duo chrome shifts:

• Bit Moody: champagne with silver gold foil
• Temper Tantrum: silver foil
• Hot Head: amber red with green gold triple chrome shift
• Zero Chill: blue with violet duo chrome shift
• Crash Out: green with gold duo chrome shift

On Sephora US, Hot Head is listed as "Coming Soon" with availability from 11 October 2026. The other shades are already listed.

How to Use

The Sephora listing gives this application guidance:

1. Pick up the shadow with a fingertip or a brush.
2. Sweep it onto the lids, then blend and build to the intensity you want.
3. For a foiled, wet-look effect, apply with a wet brush and layer.
4. Remove with an oil-based makeup remover.

Key Details

• Each shade is sold as a single pan, not as part of a palette.
• Prices are the same at both US retailers: $26 at Ulta Beauty and $26 at Sephora.
• Sephora sells the shadows online only. Ulta Beauty lists them as new and in stock online.
• Urban Decay has not confirmed UK or international availability.

Heretic Parfum launched Thornapple, a plant-based Eau de Parfum inspired by the Datura plant, on its own website on 4 October 2026. It costs $165.00 for a 50ml bottle and $28.00 for a 5ml deluxe sample. Thornapple was created by Heretic founder and perfumer Douglas Little.

What's New

Thornapple is named after the Datura plant, also called thornapple. The plant has night-blooming white trumpet flowers and spiny, egg-sized seed pods. Heretic states that the fragrance does not contain physical Datura stramonium and contains no poison. The brand calls the scent an interpretation of the plant's folklore and mythology, not a literal portrait of it.

Douglas Little explains the idea on the product page: "I've always thought of poisonous plants as the punk rockers of the botanical world."

The Notes

Heretic gives Thornapple's pyramid three themed tiers:

• Top (The Temptation): apple accord, green leaves, cardamom, saffron
• Heart (The Delirium): black tea, dark plum, labdanum, frankincense
• Base (The Spell): oakmoss, vetiver, ambered woods, skin musk

According to the brand, each note plays a role:

• Saffron adds "tension" under the opening.
• Black tea brings depth and ambiguity.
• Labdanum gives a resinous, ritualistic character.
• Oakmoss and vetiver evoke the earth beneath the plant's roots.
• Skin musk is the final stage, which Heretic says makes the scent feel personal to the wearer.

Bottle and Packaging

The 50ml bottle has a spiky black cap shaped like Datura's armoured seed pod. Its glass shades from black to yellow-green. The 50ml box carries a botanical Datura print, and the 5ml sample comes in a book-style box.

Key Details

Heretic says Thornapple is made from 95% naturally derived ingredients, as defined by ISO 9235. The brand also describes the formula as:

• Free of phthalates, parabens, synthetic dyes and formaldehyde
• Vegan-friendly
• Cruelty-free

How to Wear It

Heretic says its plant-based fragrances wear light and sheer. The brand gives this guidance:

• Reapply periodically through the day to extend wear.
• Layer two to three Heretic scents to build intensity.
• When layering, apply the heavier fragrance first, then the lighter one.

Heretic only accepts returns for defective or damaged products. The brand suggests starting with a sample, which makes the $28.00 5ml size the lower-commitment option.

Where to Buy

• US: Heretic Parfum ($165.00 for 50ml / $28.00 for 5ml)
• UK: Not yet confirmed at a UK retailer; Heretic's own site ships internationally (rates in its FAQ)
• International: Heretic Parfum official site, which ships internationally (rates in its FAQ)

Heretic offers free US shipping on orders of $75 or more. A $10 flat rate applies to US orders under $75.

Aldi UK is bringing back its 12 Days of Lacura Beauty Advent Calendar for 2026, priced at £19.99 and arriving in Aldi UK stores from 25 October 2026. The retailer says last year's edition sold out.

What's New

The main new product is the Lacura 'Perfect Peach' Plumping Lip Gloss (5.1ml), which is launching only in this calendar.

• Festive extras. A gingerbread bath bomb, a vanilla hand cream, face gems and a phone-grip mirror sit alongside the makeup.
• The final door is the largest item, a 75ml Glow Milk Skin Lock Setting Mist. According to The Beauty Crop, it contains 80% skin-loving ingredients plus film formers in a water-resistant formula.

What the Brand Says

According to The Beauty Crop, the Oui Cherie primer applies clear despite its red hue and develops a tackiness that holds makeup in place. The brand also says it contains Cherry Extract and Hyaluronic Acid and suits all skin types. The Beauty Crop describes the Stay Bouncy Blush as a cream-like texture that sets to a blurred matte, and the Sparkle Mascara as a glitter topper to layer over regular mascara.

How to use it: apply primer, then base, then set with powder and mist. Layer the Twinkle topper over the BFF mascara, and line lips with Cupcake before applying Sparks Fly.

The Beauty Crop also sells a separate, larger 2026 Advent Calendar at £95.

The line-up includes three new Juicy Lasting Tint shades priced at 1,320 yen each, a 20-shade eyeshadow palette, and a boxed set called the Mega Edition.

What's New

rom&nd Japan describes the anniversary edition as "pink, hearts and flutters." The tagline Dear Bestie refers to the brand's longtime customers, whom rom&nd calls its "bestie."

Indie brand Bella Beauté Bar will release the Garden of Spells Lip Sparkle Balm on 9 October 2026 at bellabeautebar.com. The brand announced it on Instagram on 5 October 2026. The product is not yet listed on the brand's site, and price and size details have not been shared.

What's New

Garden of Spells is a new lip sparkle balm with a witch's-garden theme. Campaign photos by @zyelbeauty and @sinireviews show a few details:

• A deep burgundy, bullet-style balm packed with fine sparkle that flashes green and blue
• Small stars embossed into the bullet
• A clear, square, crystal-like acrylic case with a clear cap printed with the BB monogram
• Styling with a stone mortar and pestle and yellow flowers

The brand's caption tells a short story about a witch's unwritten recipe. Petals "from the deepest corner of the garden" are stirred with "a drop of celestial sap". The mixture starts "deep and earthen" and then comes "alive with flashes of green, blue, and otherworldly light." The brand has not given a shade name beyond the product name.

Same Launch as the Sheer Veil Lipgloss

The balm launches alongside the brand's Sheer Veil Lipgloss, which shares the same witch's-garden story. That gloss comes in four shades, including Celestial Sap and Obsidian Honey, and also arrives on 9 October 2026. We covered that release in our Sheer Veil Lipgloss post.

How It Compares with Previous Releases

Bella Beauté Bar already sells a Dream Lip Sparkle Balm line. The brand describes it as "the perfect balance between a Lipstick and a Lip balm." It says the line has more pigment than a typical balm, moderate shine and micro-fine glitter that "you cannot feel." The brand also lists these details for that existing line:

• Jojoba oil, vitamin E and squalane, which the brand says leave lips soft and hydrated without the formula moving around
• 3.5 g size
• Vegan, paraben-free and cruelty-free
• Shades such as Dark Matter, priced from $12 to $16 (US) on bellabeautebar.com

Bella Beauté Bar has not confirmed whether Garden of Spells uses the same formula, size or price as the Dream Lip Sparkle Balm line.

Key Details About the Brand

Bella Beauté Bar started in New York in 2018 and now operates from Sarasota, Florida. The brand says it is Leaping Bunny certified cruelty-free.

LoveShackFancy released its limited-edition Holiday 2026 fragrance gift sets on 24 September 2026. The four new products are priced from $35 to $140 (US) and are available now on the brand's US site. The lineup is built around Secret Crush, the brand's vanilla gourmand Eau de Parfum that launched in 2025. It includes a full-size vanity set, a four-piece mini perfume layering set, a trio of hair and body mists, and a Secret Crush candle.

Products and Prices

• Secret Crush Vanity Set ($140): Pairs the 75mL Secret Crush Eau de Parfum, which has a sculptural golden bow top, with a 10mL travel spray. Both come in an oval keepsake box printed with the pink-and-gold Coquette Bow pattern. The set costs $140. Buying the two items one by one would cost $157, so the set saves $17.
• Mini Deluxe Layering Perfume Set ($75): Contains four 7mL (0.24 oz) Eau de Parfum dabbers. Each has a detachable bow that can be worn in the hair. The four scents are:

- Forever in Love: floral with green pear and gardenia

- Sweetheart: sparkling pink fruity floral

- Just a Girl: gourmand with sheer amber

- Secret Crush: airy, luminous vanilla

• Mini Hair and Body Perfume Mist Best Sellers Gift Set ($35): Contains three 1 oz (30mL) mists in a heart-window box:

- Sugar Blush: a fruity floral the brand says "smells like dessert"

- Peach Pom Pom: peach and jasmine

- Vanilla Twirl: vanilla and caramel

The brand credits perfumers Jérôme Epinette, Bérénice Watteau and Gabriela Chelariu.

• Secret Crush Candle ($75): A limited-edition candle in the Secret Crush scent. It uses a soy-coconut wax blend and a 100% cotton wick, with a stated 45-hour burn time. The glass vessel is 3-D printed with the Coquette Bow pattern and finished with a gold rim.

What the Brand Says About Secret Crush

According to LoveShackFancy, Secret Crush is a warm gourmand of whipped vanilla, lifted by a sparkling champagne accord and frosted Chantilly cream. The brand says white musk, coconut milk and sandalwood help it linger.

Founder and Creative Director Rebecca Hessel Cohen wanted a more layered take on vanilla. The brand describes the result as "warm, but not too sweet; fresh, but lasting."

The brand's Instagram presents the sets as packaging "pretty enough to skip the wrapping paper entirely."

How to Layer and Apply

LoveShackFancy suggests three "Love Matches" for the mini set:

• Girl Crush: Just a Girl + Secret Crush
• True Romance: Forever in Love + Secret Crush
• She's All Heart: Just a Girl + Sweetheart

The brand also gives this application advice:

• Apply fragrance to the creases of the knees and elbows, where body warmth intensifies the scent.
• Avoid rubbing or dabbing after applying, which the brand says breaks down the fragrance and makes it fade faster.

Where to Buy

• US: LoveShackFancy:

- Secret Crush Vanity Set ($140)

- Mini Deluxe Layering Perfume Set ($75)

- Mini Hair and Body Perfume Mist Set ($35)

- Secret Crush Candle ($75)

• UK: Not yet confirmed
• International: Not yet confirmed. The brand site currently ships to the US only.
