New Makeup Releases: Release Dates, Shades & Prices

CAIA That Blurred Look Smoothing Setting Spray is a 100 ml radiant matte setting mist with niacinamide, modified rice starch and bentonite clay. Swedish brand CAIA Cosmetics released it on 1 October 2026 at 8 AM CEST for €27 in the EU and £24 in the UK, through its own EU and UK sites. CAIA describes it as "almost like setting powder in spray form": a weightless mist that, according to the brand, blurs, sets and mattifies in one step.

Release Date

CAIA launched That Blurred Look Setting Spray on 1 October 2026 at 8 AM CEST on caiacosmetics.com and caiacosmetics.co.uk. It arrived the same week as another matte-finish setting spray launch, the Skindinavia Makeup Finishing Sprays, whose three new sprays, including a Matte spray, went on sale in the US on 6 October 2026.

Price

• EU: €27 on caiacosmetics.com
• UK: £24 on caiacosmetics.co.uk
• US: Not yet announced

What's in the Kits

CAIA also sells the spray in two kits:

• Hydra Blur Duo (€46): That Blurred Look plus That Extra Hydration Setting Spray (100 ml). According to CAIA, the value if bought separately is €54. CAIA pairs the hydrating mist as a prep or between-steps spray, with That Blurred Look as the finishing mist.
• Blurred Base (€67): That Blurred Look plus CAIA's BB-Stick and the Flat Buffer Foundation Brush F14. According to CAIA, the value if bought separately is €79. The kit page lists BB-Stick shades from Fair with neutral undertones to Deep with neutral undertones.

That Blurred Look and CAIA's Setting Spray Family

CAIA already sells three other setting sprays:

• That Dewy Look for glow and plumpness
• That Extra Hydration for a moisture boost
• That Extra Hour for 12-hour longwear

CAIA positions That Blurred Look as the option for a smooth, blurred finish with shine control. The brand says it gives an airbrushed effect without a flat, dry-looking complexion. Among other mattifying waterproof sprays on the BeautyTalkClub makeup releases page is the ONE/SIZE On 'Til Dawn Big & Bitty Duo, a holiday 2026 set of the brand's On 'Til Dawn Mattifying Waterproof Setting Spray.

Where to Buy

• US: Not yet confirmed
• UK: CAIA UK (£24). Free standard shipping over £29; next-day delivery £4.95; delivery in 1–5 business days.
• Europe: CAIA EU (€27); Hydra Blur Duo (€46); Blurred Base (€67). Free shipping over €100; delivery in 3–10 business days.
• Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

What Makes the That Blurred Look Setting Spray Different?

• It is the first spray in CAIA's setting spray family with a radiant matte, waterproof finish.
• It uses oil-absorbing powders in a mist: modified rice starch (distarch phosphate) and bentonite clay, which CAIA compares to setting powder in spray form.
• Besides the 100 ml spray, CAIA sells it in two kits: Hydra Blur Duo with That Extra Hydration and Blurred Base with the BB-Stick and F14 brush.

What the Brand Says About the Formula

• Instant smoothing: the brand says it visibly reduces the appearance of pores and imperfections.
• Shine control without dryness: according to CAIA, modified rice starch and bentonite (mineral) clay absorb excess oil and naturally mattify.
• Texture refining: according to CAIA, niacinamide helps refine the look of skin texture and minimize the look of blemishes.
• Long wear: the brand says makeup stays locked in for up to 12 hours with a waterproof, transfer-resistant finish that feels breathable all day.

Squalene, baobab pulp extract (Adansonia digitata), chlorella extract, magnesium aluminum silicate, sea salt and tocopherol also appear on the ingredient list. The list includes fragrance (parfum), so people with sensitive skin may want to patch test first.

CAIA cites testing for these claims. In a 7-day user test on 22 participants under dermatological control, 100% agreed the spray gives an instant smoothing effect and 97% agreed it gives a blurred finish. The 12-hour and waterproof claims come from a clinical evaluation on 22 participants under dermatological control.

How to Use

CAIA's directions are to apply makeup as usual, then shake the bottle very well. Close your eyes and mouth, hold the bottle about 30 cm from your face, and mist 3–4 times for even coverage across the whole face before letting it set. The brand says its specially designed pump spreads the mist evenly.

Carolina Herrera La Bomba Intensa Eau de Parfum is a more intense flanker of La Bomba, with wild berries, Venezuelan orchid and red amber. Carolina Herrera prices it at $172 for 80ml in the US, and Lookfantastic lists it at £132 RRP for 80ml in the UK. It was in stock by 30 September 2026 and is available now in select markets, in a berry-red version of the brand's butterfly bottle.

When Did the Carolina Herrera La Bomba Intensa Launch?

Carolina Herrera hasn't announced an official release date. The fragrance was in stock by 30 September 2026. On 7 October 2026, Lookfantastic in the UK listed the 80ml as "New In" and in stock. It is one of several fruity women's flankers that reached shelves in late September 2026, alongside the Marc Jacobs Just Perfect Eau de Parfum.

Price

• US: $172 for 80ml (2.7 oz) at Carolina Herrera.
• UK: £132 RRP for 80ml at Lookfantastic.
• 30ml and 50ml: prices not stated in our sources; see the retailer for current pricing.

Carolina Herrera La Bomba Intensa Fragrance Notes

Carolina Herrera's product page describes the scent in three stages:

• Top: juicy wild berries
• Heart: Venezuelan orchid
• Base: red amber (the note the brand says "lingers")

What Does Carolina Herrera La Bomba Intensa Smell Like?

Built from the official notes, it opens fruity with wild red berries. A floral orchid heart follows, and it settles into a warm amber base. According to the brand, the opening has a "raspberry-red mood," the orchid adds "sensual, creamy floral depth," and the red amber leaves "a bold, warm and long-lasting trail." Lookfantastic describes it as "a confident floral-amber fragrance with a fruity edge."

The brand calls the new version "more theatrical, more passionate, more intense" than the original. It says perfumers Christophe Raynaud, Louise Turner and Quentin Bisch created it to amplify La Bomba's emotional energy. Carolina Herrera says it is made for glamorous evenings and special occasions, and can also be worn during the day by those who prefer a richer scent. On the name, Carolina A. Herrera says: "'Intensa' describes someone who lives and feels everything fully – unapologetically emotional, even dramatic – because embracing what is 'too much' can lead to something truly extraordinary."

Where to Buy

• US: Carolina Herrera ($172, 80ml)
• UK: Harrods (50ml, see retailer for price); Lookfantastic (£132 RRP, 80ml)
• Europe: Not yet confirmed
• Other markets: Carolina Herrera international lists the 80ml; availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 7 October 2026: in stock at Lookfantastic UK (80ml).

What Makes the La Bomba Intensa Different?

• It swaps the original's pitaya, red frangipani, cherry peony and solar vanilla for wild berries, Venezuelan orchid and red amber.
• Carolina Herrera lists it as floral ambery fruity, while the original is listed as floral fruity ambery.
• The butterfly bottle is recast in berry-red glass with a matching jewel-like cap.

Both are Eau de Parfums in the butterfly bottle. According to Carolina Herrera, Intensa differs from the original with deeper amber warmth and a richer, more powerful trail. It is another 2026 release in which a brand adds a deeper version to an existing line, as Issey Miyake did with the Issey Miyake Le Sel d'Issey Parfum.

Bottle, Formula and Sizes

The signature butterfly silhouette comes in berry-red glass, finished with a matching jewel-like cap and the golden Insignia. The 50ml size is refillable. In the US it is sold in 1 oz, 1.7 oz (Refillable Edition) and 2.7 oz bottles. The La Bomba line also includes La Bomba Shimmering Body Oil (5.1 oz) and La Bomba Body Cream (6.8 oz).

Lookfantastic's ingredient list begins with alcohol denat., parfum (fragrance) and aqua. It also includes bergamot peel oil and the colourants CI 14700 (Red 4) and CI 60730 (Ext. Violet 2). Carolina Herrera recommends spraying onto pulse points such as the neck and wrists, applying to warm areas of the body and avoiding rubbing.

Skylar's Fated Flame Eau de Parfum is a new oud fragrance with cherry purée, chocolate ganache and a base of oud, amber and sandalwood. It arrived on the Sephora app on 6 October 2026 and launches nationwide in the US on 8 October 2026, priced at $96 for 1.7 oz and $33 for the travel spray on Skylar's US site. According to Skylar, the fall 2026 scent is designed for people who are curious about oud but put off by its heavier side.

Release Date

Fated Flame arrived as a Sephora app exclusive on 6 October 2026 and launches nationwide in the US on 8 October 2026. Before launch, Skylar opened a waitlist through the link in its Instagram bio. It is one of several October 2026 launches in our fragrance releases, alongside the Laura Geller Tuscan Sun Eau de Toilette.

Price

• US (Skylar): $96 for the 1.7 oz Eau de Parfum, the same price as the brand's other full-size fine fragrances; $33 for the travel spray.
• US (Sephora): Not yet announced.

Skylar Fated Flame Fragrance Notes

Skylar highlights three key notes: cherry purée, chocolate ganache and oud. Its full pyramid is:

• Top: bergamot, cherry purée, ginger zest
• Heart: black rose, orris butter, chocolate ganache
• Base: amber, oud, sandalwood

What Does Skylar Fated Flame Smell Like?

The opening pairs cherry with citrus from bergamot and spice from ginger zest. The heart combines rose, orris and chocolate. The base sets oud against amber and sandalwood.

Skylar describes the opening as "juicy, jammy black cherry" and says the chocolate ganache adds a gentle sweetness. The brand calls the base "dark, sexy, and quietly elevated" and says the oud stays soft and subtle from first spray to final dry-down. On its product page, Skylar describes Fated Flame as "oud reimagined - rich, fruity, and warm," with "a softened oud, smoothed by sandalwood and amber."

The page also carries this quote: "I wanted to create the perfect oud - sexy, moody, and just a little fruity. Dark and sultry, but never too much. She simmers, revealing something new with every wear. She's the oud I've always wanted but couldn't find, so I made her myself."

Skylar's earlier launches include the Skylar Sunkissed Dahlia Eau de Parfum, a dahlia, apple and amber scent, and the fresher SKYLAR Water's Edge - Apple Cucumber Waterlily.

Where to Buy

US: Skylar – Fated Flame Eau de Parfum 1.7 oz ($96); Skylar – Fated Flame Travel Spray ($33); Sephora. Sephora listed it as a Sephora app exclusive from 6 October, with nationwide availability from 8 October; its price is not yet announced. Skylar's site offers free US shipping on orders over $50.

UK: Not yet confirmed.

Europe: Not yet confirmed.

Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

What Makes Fated Flame Different?

• Skylar positions it as an introduction to oud, with the oud softened by sandalwood and amber.
• It pairs oud with dessert notes, chocolate ganache and cherry purée, which Skylar lists among its three key notes.
• It launched in two formats, a 1.7 oz bottle and a travel spray, with two days of Sephora app access before the US nationwide launch.

Bottle, Formula and Application

• Fated Flame Eau de Parfum (1.7 oz): a square glass bottle with a burgundy-to-black gradient, with "SKYLAR" and "Fated Flame" written in pink script.
• Fated Flame Travel Spray: a slim cylinder with a silver cap and the same burgundy-black gradient label reading "Eau de Parfum."

Skylar lists the ingredients as Organic Sugar Cane Alcohol Denat., Parfum/Fragrance and Aqua/Water/Eau. The brand recommends applying it to pulse points such as the wrists, neck and below the ears, and tapping the wrists together rather than rubbing them.

JINsoon x Vintage Dusties The Icons is a three-shade nail polish collection of blackened reds: Theda, Rita and Uma. JINsoon made it with the @vintage_dusties Instagram account. The shades are sold separately at $18 each (US), not as a boxed set, and went on sale on JINsoon.com on 30 September 2026.

Release Date

JINsoon released The Icons on 30 September 2026, and all three shades are currently listed on JINsoon.com. The collection arrived the same day another dark autumn/winter 2026 polish was listed in the UK, the deep plum Leighton Denny Tough Love Nail Polish. More nail and colour launches are collected under BeautyTalkClub's makeup releases.

Price

• US: $18 per shade on JINsoon.com
• UK: Not yet announced
• Other markets: Not yet announced

The Icons Shades: A Century of Blackened Reds

According to JINsoon, the shades are "inspired by a century of blackened reds," and each one reflects a different era in the history of the vampy manicure.

Theda (1920s)

Theda is a blackened blood red with warm undertones and a translucent jelly finish. The brand says it takes its cue from the first known blackened red nail polish. It is named for silent-film star Theda Bara, who was nicknamed "The Vamp."

Rita (1940s)

Rita is a deep wintry plum with a crelly finish (part cream, part jelly). It draws on the 1940s dark-nails trend. JINsoon says that was when advertisers first used the word "vamp" for this colour family, and the brand links the era to women wearing dark polish as a symbol of independence and power.

Uma (mid-90s)

Uma is a ripened fig red with a pearl finish and shifting green shimmer. It refers to the return of dark red nails in the grunge era.

Where to Buy

• US: JINsoon: Theda ($18), Rita ($18), Uma ($18), or The Icons collection
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• Canada: JINsoon directs Canadian shoppers to The Green Jungle Beauty Shop for its products; a listing for The Icons is not yet confirmed
• Europe: Not yet confirmed
• Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

JINsoon ships within the continental United States, and its site currently notes that orders may have a slight shipping delay. According to JINsoon's product pages, its lacquers are non-returnable for sanitary reasons. If a product arrives defective, the brand offers a replacement or credit when the order number and a photo are sent within 48 hours of delivery. JINsoon also says it can't refund or accept returns of orders sent to a third-party forwarder that doesn't pass them on.

What Makes The Icons Collection Different?

• Each shade is tied to a named era, according to JINsoon: the 1920s (Theda), the 1940s (Rita) and the mid-90s (Uma).
• The three shades use three different finishes: jelly, crelly, and pearl with green shimmer.
• It is a collaboration with the @vintage_dusties Instagram account.

Formula Notes

According to JINsoon, The Icons shades are 21-free, like all of its lacquers. The brand says they are made without ingredients such as formaldehyde, toluene, DBP, camphor and parabens.

Uma's published ingredient list includes mica, tin oxide and synthetic fluorphlogopite, the shimmer ingredients behind its pearl finish. Theda's list does not include them. The ingredient lists for Rita and Uma both include Black 2 (CI 77266 [nano]).

How to Use

According to JINsoon, Power Coat Base Coat should always be used with dark, richly pigmented shades like these. The brand says a base coat helps prevent the staining that deep reds and plums can cause.

• bisphenol A

Ulta also notes the set cannot be shipped via air.

To speed drying, the brand suggests 1–2 drops of its Accelerating Drying Oil at the cuticle. For One-Step Mini Magic, Ulta's listing says to apply 1–2 coats directly onto clean nails, with no base coat or top coat needed.

Glasshouse Fragrances' A Very Merry World Holiday 2026 collection comprises six limited-edition 380g scented candles in illustrated tins. Each candle costs $60 in the US and is sold separately, not as a boxed set. The collection went on sale on 24 September 2026. Artist Jeffrey Phillips illustrated the tins, which Glasshouse describes as "six fragrances, six festive worlds". Each design includes characters and hidden details, with laser-cut windows that let the candlelight glow through.

Release Date

The collection was listed on the Glasshouse website on 24 September 2026 and is available now. The brand's two 2026 advent calendars went on sale the same day.

Price

All six candles cost the same within each market:

• US: $60
• Australia: A$64.95
• New Zealand: NZ$69.95

The Six Holiday 2026 Candles: Notes and Scents

Glasshouse lists each candle's notes in groups. We give them in the brand's order rather than as a top, heart and base pyramid.

Gingerbread House

Listed notes: cedarwood, cloves, cinnamon, ginger, black pepper; vanilla, tonka bean, amber.

According to Glasshouse, caramel, ginger and warm spice blend with bourbon vanilla, and the candle "smells like gingerbread dough with caramel drizzled on top." The tin has a gingerbread-style house front. The brand says the artwork imagines a sugar-dusted forest and candy-coated cottage where elves, fairies, toy soldiers and talking reindeer gather.

Christmas Morning

Glasshouse subtitles this one "Spiced Blood Orange & Pine". The brand describes aromatic pine, juicy blood orange, smoky cinnamon, clove and warm musk, summed up as "cinnamon, clove and orange with hints of pine." It comes in a green tin with a lit window scene of a family. According to Glasshouse, the artwork moves the celebration to a safari lodge beneath golden African skies, with baobab trees and long-table feasts.

Night Before Christmas

Listed notes: plum, lemon, lavender, rose.

Glasshouse calls this plum-pudding scent a cult favourite. The brand lists blackcurrant, plum, lemon and lavender, and sums it up as "blackcurrants with a hint of rose and musk." It comes in a red townhouse tin. The brand says the artwork depicts a celebration at a grand British country estate with roaring fireplaces.

Under The Mistletoe

Listed notes: apple, red berries, cinnamon, clove bud.

Glasshouse subtitles this one "Spiced Apple & Red Berries". The brand adds vanilla and sweet caramel, and describes the scent as "shortbread with caramel apples and cinnamon sprinkled on top." The tin shows a white house with a blue door. According to Glasshouse, the scene is a classic Australian Christmas at a white weatherboard home, with barbecued prawns, children in the pool and Santa in board shorts.

White Christmas

Listed notes: fresh aldehydes, greens, orange; eucalyptus, oak moss, fir balsam, plum, lemon; cedarwood, pine, amber, musk.

According to Glasshouse, cedar leaf, fruity clove, eucalyptus and fir balsam sit over warm woods and amber. The brand's one-line summary is "mulled wine with a fresh pine sprig." It comes in a silver tin with a snowy alpine lodge scene. Glasshouse describes the scene as an Alpine escape with snow-draped peaks, stone fireplaces and midnight tobogganing.

Winter Wonderland

Listed notes: pine needles, eucalyptus, apple; red fruits, fir balsam, spruce.

Glasshouse describes freshly cut fir and spruce with pine needles, eucalyptus and cedarwood, summed up as "a fresh spruce tree with the warmth of cedarwood." The tin shows a red-brick townhouse on a green background. According to the brand, the artwork depicts a Christmas party in a Tribeca loft with contemporary art and an avant-garde tree.

• Europe: Not yet confirmed
• Australia: Glasshouse Australia (A$64.95 each)
• New Zealand: Glasshouse New Zealand (NZ$69.95 each)
• Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

What Makes the Glasshouse Holiday 2026 Candles Different?

• Each tin shows a different setting, according to Glasshouse: a gingerbread forest, an African safari lodge, a British country estate, an Australian weatherboard home, an Alpine lodge and a Tribeca loft.
• Laser-cut windows in the tins let the candlelight glow through the artwork.
• The six candles span four Glasshouse fragrance families: Gourmand, Fruity/Woody, Floral, Woody and Fresh.

Formula and Packaging

According to Glasshouse, each candle uses a soy blend wax and two lead-free cotton wicks, is free of parabens, silicones and PEGs, and has a burn time of up to 80 hours. Once a candle is finished, the illustrated tin can be kept as a decoration. For another holiday 2026 home-fragrance candle launch, see The White Company 12 Days of Fragrance Votive Candle Collection 2026. More scent launches are on our Fragrance releases page.

How to Use

Glasshouse says to trim the wicks to 7mm before each lighting and to burn the candle for at least 1 hour but no more than 4 hours at a time. Keep it away from drafts, fans, air ducts and open windows, and never let the flame touch the side of the vessel. Stop burning when 10mm of wax remains.

Glasshouse Advent Calendars 2026

Glasshouse also released two advent calendars on 24 September 2026. The 24 Days Of Christmas Advent Calendar ends with a 60g Night Before Christmas candle behind Day 24, and the 12 Days Of Luxury Fragrance Discovery is the second. Contents and prices for both are in our Glasshouse Fragrances Advent Calendars 2026 post, and more calendars are on our Beauty Advent Calendars 2026 hub.

Byredo 00:00 Eau de Parfum is a 2026 woody floral musk fragrance by Fanny Bal, built on bergamot, rosemary, gardenia, moss and musk. Byredo has released it for a single region: according to Parfumo, it is sold exclusively in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. Price and bottle sizes have not yet been announced.

When Did the Byredo 00:00 Eau de Parfum Launch?

Byredo hasn't announced an official release date for 00:00. Fragrantica lists it as a 2026 launch, and no exact on-sale date has been confirmed for any of its four markets. We'll add the date when Byredo confirms it.

Price

Byredo has not yet announced a price for 00:00 in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan. No bottle sizes have been confirmed either.

Byredo 00:00 Eau de Parfum Fragrance Notes

Byredo hasn't published a top, heart and base pyramid for 00:00. The note lists below come from fragrance databases, not from the brand.

Olfactra lists these notes:

• Bergamot
• Rosemary
• Gardenia balsam
• Moss
• Pepper
• Patchouli
• Georgywood
• Musk

Fragrantica gives a slightly different list: bergamot, rosemary, gardenia, moss, white musk, Akigalawood and Georgywood, arranged into a top, heart and base structure.

What Does Byredo 00:00 Eau de Parfum Smell Like?

Byredo has not published a description of the scent. In plain terms, the listed notes cover three stages:

• Opening: bergamot and rosemary are a citrus and herbal pairing.
• Heart: gardenia is a white floral, alongside pepper.
• Base: moss and patchouli are green and earthy, Georgywood is a modern woody material, and musk sits underneath.

Parfumo describes 00:00 as citrusy-green. Olfactra lists its main accords as fresh spicy, aromatic and earthy.

Where to Buy

• US: Not available (region exclusive)
• UK: Not available (region exclusive)
• Europe: Not available (region exclusive)
• Other markets: Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan only. Retailers not yet confirmed

For Byredo's other 2026 launches, the Byredo Havana Tonka Extrait de Parfum is sold more widely, including in the US, UK, EU and Canada. The brand's holiday release, the Byredo Advent Calendar 2026, is also available in those markets. More new scents are in our fragrance releases section.

What Makes the Byredo 00:00 Eau de Parfum Different?

• According to Parfumo, it is sold only in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.
• It is marketed for women and men.
• Fragrantica classifies it as a Woody Floral Musk, with Georgywood and Akigalawood among the listed base materials.

Formula and Packaging

00:00 is an Eau de Parfum by perfumer Fanny Bal. Byredo hasn't explained the name; "00:00" could suggest midnight or a fresh start, but that is our reading, not an official explanation.

The bottle follows Byredo's classic design: clear glass with a black cap and a white label reading "00:00 EAU DE PARFUM." The outer box shows a watercolour-style wash of blue, teal, yellow and orange on white.

We'll update this post when Byredo confirms the price, sizes and release date.

What Makes the By Terry Brightening CC Blush Different?

• It comes as a liquid blush with a drop-shaped applicator, which By Terry says is designed to deliver a precise amount of product.
• Its colour comes from IGC Pigments (Intensive Glow Control), By Terry's blend of micronised colour pigments and luminous pearl pigments.
• It combines makeup and skincare ingredients: Japanese Rose Extract, Jasmine Leaf Extract, Phytosqualane and Vitamins E, B3 and B5.

Formula and Packaging

According to By Terry, the IGC Pigments deliver even, buildable colour and multidimensional radiance, reflecting light evenly while allowing the skin to show through. The brand presents the blush under the tagline "Natural Color. Diamond-Like Radiance." By Terry describes the texture as an ultra-fresh, lightweight cream that melts into skin and blends easily, with colour that builds from natural to intense.

The brand reports:

• Up to 24H hydration (instrumental test, 11 subjects)
• Visible colour for up to 12H (consumer test under dermatological supervision, 30 subjects)

The same consumer test also asked participants about the luminous finish, comfort and buildable intensity.

Skincare Ingredients

According to By Terry, each drop contains:

• Japanese Rose Extract: derived from rose cell biotechnology. The brand says it helps rejuvenate skin and supports firmness and elasticity.
• Jasmine Leaf Extract: derived from jasmine cell biotechnology. According to the brand, it helps brighten and even the complexion and supports antioxidant defences.
• Phytosqualane: a plant-derived emollient that, the brand says, strengthens the skin barrier, limits moisture loss and helps maintain suppleness and comfort.
• 3-Vitamin Complex (E, B3 & B5): described by By Terry as boosting radiance, supporting the skin barrier, hydrating and soothing.

The formula contains 87% ingredients of natural origin and is vegan. The brand calls it "clean" according to its own By Terry clean charter. The packaging is 100% recyclable PET.

The blush shares its Brightening CC name with the By Terry Brightening CC Foundation, the brand's earlier radiance-focused serum foundation. For other new blushes, highlighters and complexion launches, see our makeup releases.

How to Use

By Terry directs users to apply 1–2 drops directly onto the cheeks with the drop-shaped applicator. Blend with fingertips or a blush brush until the texture melts into the complexion. Layer gradually to build from a sheer veil of colour to a more vibrant flush.

Products in the Set

Step 1: Warm Up Enzyme Treatment Mask

The first mask is self-heating. According to the brand, it exfoliates and visibly plumps. Pavitt says it warms on the skin and then tingles as the enzymes start working. Key ingredients:

• Papain (papaya enzyme) and bromelain: fruit enzymes that, according to Pavitt, gently dissolve dead skin cells

• Niacinamide: included for brightening, per the brand
• Squalane and panthenol: included to keep skin comfortable during exfoliation, per the brand

Step 2: Cool Down Hydrating Exosome Mask

The second mask has a cushiony gel texture, and the brand positions it as a hydrate-and-soothe step. Key ingredients:

• Centella complex: according to Pavitt, contains four active compounds that calm redness and irritation and support the skin barrier
• Polyglutamic acid: described by the brand as locking in hydration
• Ceramide NP, aloe and ectoin: included for a comfortable, supple feel, per the brand
• Caffeine: included as a refreshing finishing ingredient, per the brand

What Makes the Temp Check Hot + Cold Mask Duo Different?

• It adapts Pavitt's in-studio Contrast Therapy Facial into a two-step "warm up / cool down" routine for home use.
• It pairs a self-heating enzyme mask (papain, bromelain) with a gel mask that has "exosome" in its name.
• It comes as a kit: two 60 mL masks plus a skincare spatula and a tray.

Other masks we've covered this season take different approaches. The Dr.Jart+ Cryo-V Jawline Lifting Mask is a single-use cooling hydrogel mask. The Dr.Jart+ 10 Mask Mega Haul Holiday Gift Set is another mask set launched at Sephora US in October 2026. For more launches, see all skincare releases.

Formula and Skin Types

Sephora lists both masks as vegan, fragrance free, non-comedogenic and Clean at Sephora. Clean at Sephora is Sephora's label for formulas made without certain ingredients, including parabens, sulfates, phthalates and mineral oils. The set is listed for normal, dry, combination and oily skin, and for dullness, uneven texture and uneven skin tone. The brand says it targets dry, dull and textured skin and leaves skin looking smoother, brighter and plumper.

What the Brand Says

Pavitt told Byrdie: "Heat preps the skin, encourages microcirculation and feels super sensorial. Cryo/cold keeps it plump, lifted and bright. I wanted to bring that experience home in a way that was simple and effective." She added: "I love contrast facials before a big event or just as a mid-week boost. The warm-to-cool application exfoliates, calms, and refreshes the skin all in one go. It's a mini studio treatment at home."

Many of the brand's products are designed with acne-prone skin in mind, but Pavitt says Temp Check was formulated for all skin types.

How to Use

According to the brand, use the spatula to apply a generous layer of the Warm Up Mask to clean, dry skin. Leave it on for 10–15 minutes, rinse with cool water and pat dry, then immediately apply the Cool Down Mask for 10–15 minutes and rinse thoroughly, 1–2 times per week. Pavitt recommends using it as a weekly treatment in place of other actives: skip other exfoliants that evening, rinse the spatula between masks, and if you have active, inflamed acne, use only the Cool Down Mask until skin is calmer.
