What's Inside The Bestsellers Set ($295)

Hourglass describes it as "a limited-edition set of full-size essentials for the ultimate holiday glow." It holds five items: four full-size products and a makeup bag. Hourglass doesn't list the size of each product on the set page.

• Phantom Volumizing Glossy Balm in Slip: according to Hourglass, a 3-in-1 hybrid that hydrates like a balm, plumps for fuller-looking lips and gives the high-shine finish of a gloss.
• Unlocked Instant Extensions Mascara in Ultra Black: the brand says its film-forming technology coats each lash in lightweight fibers for more definition, lift and length, with a fanned-out finish and smudge-proof wear.
• Ambient Lighting Edit Unlocked in Hope: a limited-edition face palette with five new Ambient Lighting shades. Hourglass says they are meant to "create your perfect flush and lit-from-within glow." French jewelry designer Lauren Rubinski designed the palette, and its lid carries an exclusive heart and key charm.
• Ambient Lighting Edit Brush II (limited-edition, in Love): a double-ended brush. Hourglass says the slanted end is for blush and bronzer and the domed, tapered end is for highlighter.
• NEW Vegan Leather Makeup Bag: made from vegan Saffiano leather, with a LOVE makeup bag charm and one large inner pocket.

The Hope palette continues Hourglass's limited-edition Ambient Lighting Edit format. That format includes the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit: Blush & Glow Vol. II and Bronze & Highlight Palettes launched in April 2024. The Ambient Lighting line also includes the four-shade Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette Golden Rose Edit.

What's Inside The Travel Brush Set ($184)

The set holds six items: five brushes and a brush bag. These are travel sizes of Hourglass's complexion brushes, a double-ended eye brush and a new blush brush, all in a limited-edition gold finish with a custom-designed travel brush case. Brush lengths are not published.

• Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush (Travel Size): according to the brand, designed to mimic the control of the fingertips, with vegan fiber technology and custom bristles.
• Vanish Seamless Finish Concealer Brush (Travel Size): the brand says its half-moon shape is for application to the contours of the face, especially under the eyes.
• Veil Powder Brush (Travel Size): according to Hourglass, a limited-edition travel-size brush for loose powder.
• NEW No. 15 Blush Brush (Travel Size): an angled stippling brush with custom bristles.
• Double Ended Eyeshadow Brush: combines elements of the Nº 3 and Nº 6 brushes, with a flat side for laying down eyeshadow and a fluffy side for diffusing it.
• NEW Travel Makeup Brush Bag: a limited-edition brush bag made from vegan Saffiano leather.

Both sets sit among this season's other makeup releases.

Guerlain is launching its limited-edition Holiday 2026 Makeup Collection, designed with Swiss fashion designer Kévin Germanier. The release date is October 2026, with the collection launching first in Asia before arriving in other markets. The lineup includes holiday editions of Météorites, the Ombres G eyeshadow palette, Rouge G lipstick and cases, and a KissKiss Bee Glow Oil. Prices have not yet been announced.

The fragrance side of the same partnership is the Guerlain Imagine 2026 Bee Bottle by Kévin Germanier, a numbered 125 ml Imagine Guerlain Eau de Parfum dressed in a detachable beaded cuff.

About the Collection

The Holiday 2026 collection is inspired by "Fireworks Lighting Up the Parisian Night." The wider holiday theme is "Dressed in Wonder," built around Paris at night, with lights on the Eiffel Tower and fireworks reflecting off it. Kévin Germanier is known for using upcycled beads and fabrics to create vivid colours and sculptural forms. For this collection, the packaging is jewellery-inspired, with designs meant to evoke fireworks bursting across the night sky.

What's Inside the Fireworks Collection

Every piece in this launch is limited edition. The lineup includes:

• Guerlain Ombres G Eyeshadow Palette No. 300 — a 4-color palette with matte and shimmer blues, an iridescent pink and a champagne gold
• Guerlain Météorites — the pearl-based powder in a holiday edition with a new pink-toned colour harmony
• Guerlain Rouge G Lipstick cases — Collectors Edition jewel-like cases
• Guerlain Rouge G Lipstick No. 02 in Brown and Red shades
• Guerlain KissKiss Bee Glow Oil in 419 Spotlight

Inside are six colours of pearls: deep rosy pink, soft pink, muted ivory pink, lavender, powder blue and champagne gold. When blended, they give a pale pink tone with subtle pink undertones. According to Guerlain, Météorites pearls blur imperfections, neutralise dullness and leave skin with a soft, luminous finish. The powder puff has a ribbon with a black satin Guerlain x Kévin Germanier logo.

Ombres G Palette: The palette combines matte and shimmer finishes. It includes matte and shimmer blues, an iridescent pink and a delicate champagne gold.

Rouge G: Rouge G lipstick is sold as a bullet and a case chosen separately. This season adds Collectors Edition holiday cases. Shade No. 02 is listed in Brown and Red variants.

Rephr and makeup artist Judy Lim have launched the JL17 Everyday Complexion Brush. It went on sale 17 September 2026 at 12pm EST on rephr.com. Rephr announced the limited-edition brush on Instagram alongside a photo shoot. It is the latest product in the brand's community-designed lineup.

Key Details

According to Rephr, the JL17 is Judy Lim's everyday complexion brush. The brand describes it as "one brush for powder, liquid and cream." It was two years in the making and is handcrafted in Kumano, Japan.

Rephr describes the brush head this way:

• Hybrid natural/synthetic bristles: the synthetic fibers give enough structure for heavier formulas, while the natural bristles blend product in a diffused way
• A soft curve and a subtle point, which the brand says gives precise control over blush placement
• A compact size designed for all complexion applications
• Versatility: the brand says it handles liquid, cream, stick and powder blush, and deposits powders in an even, thin, buildable layer

What's Notable

Rephr says the JL17 name has a double meaning. Judy Lim started her career as a makeup artist at 17. The Japan Airlines flight that first took her to Kumano to design the brush was also numbered JL17.

How to Use the JL17

The brush is compact, so it is suited to targeted placement and buffing rather than sweeping full-face coverage. Application tips:

1. Start with a small amount of product and build up as needed.
2. Buff in small circles to blend cream blush, tinted serums or liquid foundation.
3. Use the pointed tip for precision around the nose, under the eyes or along the jawline.
4. Pair with cream formulas such as Westman Atelier's Super Loaded Tinted Highlighter or a cushion foundation.

According to Rephr, the natural bristles deposit product in a soft, natural way, which the brand says makes the JL17 suitable for makeup users of all skill levels.

Launch Bundles

To mark the launch, Rephr has released bundles that pair the JL17 with Judy Lim's favorite Rephr brushes:

• JL17 Perfect Base Bundle: LC 01 for concealer, LC 03 for foundation and the JL17 for everything else, offered together at a discount
• JL17 + Judy's favorite eye brushes
• Versatile Face Brush + Versatile Eye Brush pairing

The Rephr Approach: Community-Designed Tools

Rephr develops its products using customer feedback. According to its site, a prototype is added free to qualifying orders. A feedback form is sent 60 days after purchase so the brand can refine the product and share it with its community.

• Solo Shadow Sheen in Mink: a limited-edition soft brown-grey with a subtle sheen

• Signature Lip Satin in Bespoke: a satin-finish neutral

Tom Ford Beauty has released the Architecture Multi-Use Foundation Stick, a foundation stick available in 25 shades at $60. According to the brand, the stick is designed to perfect skin, contour, highlight and conceal. It is available now from Tom Ford Beauty and luxury beauty retailers.

What Makes the Architecture Foundation Stick Special

Tom Ford Beauty describes the product as a high-performance foundation stick that glides on with a soft texture and diffuses into a velvety, soft matte finish. The brand positions it as a multi-use formula for every step of its Architecture regimen.

According to the brand, the buildable, medium-to-full coverage formula uses Tom Ford's Second-Skin Wear Technology. The brand says this technology adapts to skin movement to prevent creasing and settling. Tom Ford Beauty also says the hyaluronic acid microspheres provide immediate hydration and that the formula is lightweight and breathable.

According to Tom Ford Beauty, the formula offers:

• 24-hour non-creasing, non-settling, non-poring, non-caking wear
• Shine control without drying the skin
• Sweat and humidity resistance
• High-definition pigments that color-correct and enhance skin tone

Four Ways to Use It

The brand lists four uses for the stick:

• As foundation: Use a true-to-skin shade all over the face. Apply directly or with the Tom Ford Foundation Brush 02.
• As contour: Pick a shade 2–3 intensities deeper than your skin tone. Sculpt under the cheekbones, across the jawline and forehead, and down the sides of the nose, then blend the edges with the Tom Ford Foundation Brush 02.
• As highlighter: Pick a shade 1–2 intensities lighter than your skin tone. Apply down the center of the nose, on the upper cheekbones, on the cupid's bow and at the center of the chin.
• As concealer: Apply directly to spot-correct redness, blemishes and imperfections. Use a lighter or warmer shade to conceal and brighten under-eye circles or dark spots.

How It Compares to the Architecture Soft Matte Blurring Foundation

Tom Ford Beauty describes the existing Architecture Soft Matte Blurring Foundation as "a lightweight formula with a soft-matte finish." That liquid formula uses soft-focus microsphere powders to blur and, according to the brand, control oil for up to 24 hours. It also contains antioxidants including tocopherol and tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, a stable form of vitamin C.

The stick comes in a portable format and is intended for contouring and highlighting as well as base coverage. Both products belong to Tom Ford Beauty's Architecture collection.
