U Beauty Holiday 2026 Gift Sets: Release Date, Products & Prices

Stacked white U Beauty gift boxes for The Barrier Set, The Foundational Set and The Icons Set against a dark backdrop

The U Beauty Holiday 2026 gift sets have landed, and they're some of the most useful skincare gifts of the season. The brand calls them "three expressions of the U Beauty ritual," with one set for the devoted ritualist, one for the glow chaser and one for the minimalist. All are limited-edition, and every formula uses U Beauty's SIREN Capsule Technology delivery system.

The Products: Three Rituals, Three Personalities

The Foundational Set is the complete face-to-décolleté routine. You get the Resurfacing Compound, which pairs stabilized vitamins C + E with a gentle retinoid (retinyl palmitate) and glycolic, mandelic and lactobionic acids to smooth texture and brighten tone. It also includes The SUPER Hydrator, which uses five types of hyaluronic acid for up to 48 hours of hydration, and The SCULPT Neck + Décolleté Concentrate, which targets the often-forgotten skin of the neck, chest and jawline. The set costs $172. Buying the three items separately would cost $214 ($88 + $68 + $58).

The Barrier Set is a day-to-night duo for barrier care. The BARRIER Bioactive Treatment is an overnight treatment with PDRN (sodium DNA) that restores bounce and suppleness. The BARRIER Bioactive Mist is a microbiome-friendly serum-mist with a postbiotic ferment and ectoin, and it also refreshes makeup on the go. The set costs $98, against $116 if bought separately ($78 + $38).

The Icons Set is for less-is-more devotees. It pairs the bestselling Resurfacing Compound and SUPER Hydrator in full 50ml sizes for dewy, glass-like skin. It costs $348, while the two products bought individually would total $396 ($228 + $168).

There's also a fourth option, available only at Sephora US. The Super Sculpt Set is described as super-limited and costs $168 ($206 value). It includes a full-size SCULPT Concentrate, a mini SUPER Hydrator and U Beauty's Signature Beauty Bag.

How to Use

  • Resurfacing Compound: After cleansing, massage 2–3 pumps onto dry skin, morning, evening or both.
  • SCULPT Concentrate: Smooth onto the neck in upward strokes.
  • SUPER Hydrator: Let your skin dry, then seal everything in with 2–3 pumps. Reapply any time your skin needs a boost.
  • BARRIER Treatment: Apply a generous layer on at least 2–3 nights a week. Pat it on rather than rubbing it in, because it's designed to sit on the skin barrier.
  • BARRIER Mist: Shake well and spray as your last step. Use it again over makeup during the day.

Gifting tip: The Barrier Set is the most accessible of these products and a great introduction to the brand. The Icons Set is the best pick for someone who already loves U Beauty.

D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Extrait de Parfum: Prices & What's New

D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair bottle on stone with dried leaves, vanilla pods, an orchid and rising smoke against a dark backdrop

D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Extrait de Parfum is a unisex woody-amber extrait by Nathalie Lorson built around two vanillas, Balkan tobacco and white musks. The Parisian niche house listed it on its official website in September 2026, priced from €28 for 5 ml to €250 for 90 ml. According to D'ORSAY, the scent is built around the idea of irresistible attraction, where "mystery takes shape, and each note becomes a pact whispered against the skin."

When Did the D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Launch?

D'ORSAY hasn't announced an official release date. Vanilla Affair appeared on the brand's official website in September 2026, where it is presented as "our new Extrait de Parfum" on both the English and French product pages.

Price

On the D'ORSAY official site, Vanilla Affair comes in three bottle sizes plus a sample:

  • 90 ml: €250
  • 50 ml: €190
  • 5 ml: €28
  • 1.5 ml sample: €5

According to D'ORSAY, each perfume purchase includes a free sample, while stocks last. If the fragrance doesn't suit, the unopened bottle can be returned within 14 days for a refund, and the brand says the return is free. The official site also offers payment in three interest-free installments on orders from €80.

D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Fragrance Notes

  • Top: Balkan tobacco, tonka bean, cistus
  • Heart: a duo of vanillas (Madagascar Vanilla Planifolia absolute and CO₂-extracted Bourbon Vanilla)
  • Base: white musks, amber woods, patchouli

What Does D'ORSAY Vanilla Affair Smell Like?

Built from the official notes, it opens on tobacco, tonka bean and the resin cistus. Two vanillas form the heart, and white musks, amber woods and patchouli make up the base. The brand describes the tobacco as "luminous and honeyed."

According to D'ORSAY, each vanilla shows a different side of the ingredient:

  • The Madagascar absolute is described as deep, warm and sensual, almost leathery. The brand calls this the "raw, almost wild" side.
  • The Bourbon vanilla is described as creamy, gourmand and luminous, with subtle woody and spicy nuances. The brand calls it "soft as a forbidden promise."

D'ORSAY says the musks glide over the skin "as light as a shiver."

Lorson says she wanted to create a fragrance that embodies desire through "a double dose of vanilla." In her description, it is sweet, white and enveloping on one side. On the other, it reveals darker, woody facets with an "ultra-animalistic sensuality."

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Not yet confirmed
  • Europe: D'ORSAY official website, which lists €250 for 90 ml, €190 for 50 ml, €28 for 5 ml and €5 for a 1.5 ml sample.
  • Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

It is one of several niche extraits that went on sale in September 2026, alongside the Goldfield & Banks Pacific Rock Swell Extrait de Parfum and the Jo Loves Nutmeg & Incense fragrance. You can find more launches on our fragrance releases page.

What Makes the Vanilla Affair Extrait de Parfum Different?

  • It uses two extractions of vanilla: a Madagascar Vanilla Planifolia absolute and a Bourbon Vanilla extracted with supercritical CO₂.
  • The brand states a 35% concentration.
  • The top note uses natural Balkan tobacco absolute, which D'ORSAY says is obtained from dried tobacco leaves.

Formula and Packaging

According to D'ORSAY, the 35% concentration gives "an almost unreasonable intensity," leaving an ambery, musky and addictive trail on the skin. The brand says the vanilla comes from an orchid with long pods. The two extractions were chosen to express its different facets.

The published ingredient list includes vanillin, coumarin, patchouli oil (Pogostemon Cablin), clove oil (Eugenia Caryophyllus) and cedarwood oil (Juniperus Virginiana). The bottle is a black cylinder with a white D'ORSAY label.

The Story Behind the Scent

According to D'ORSAY, all of its fragrances are unisex. This echoes the house's first perfume, which founder Alfred d'Orsay created in 1830 for himself and the love of his life, Marguerite de Blessington. The couple first met in 1821 at St James's Square in London, and their convention-defying romance lasted thirty years. The brand says Vanilla Affair is designed to revive "the scent of a forbidden encounter" from which the perfume house was born.

Dolce&Gabbana By Man & By Woman Re-Edition: Release Date, Price, Notes & Where to Buy

Dolce&Gabbana By Woman and By Man Re-Edition Eau de Parfum bottles in leopard and zebra print on matching animal-print satin

Dolce&Gabbana By Man and By Woman Re-Edition are 2026 relaunches of the house's 1997 perfumes, each a 100ml Eau de Parfum at $345, £281 or €330. They are on sale now at dolcegabbana.com and Harrods, in the original zebra and leopard prints.

Availability update (7 October 2026): both scents are in stock on Dolce&Gabbana's US, UK, Italian and German sites. At Harrods, By Woman is in stock and By Man is listed but out of stock.

Dolce&Gabbana also added a new scent to its Velvet Collection this season: Dolce&Gabbana Velvet Amber Sage Eau de Parfum.

When Did the Dolce&Gabbana By Man & By Woman Re-Edition Launch?

Dolce&Gabbana hasn't announced an official release date. T3 reported the relaunch on 1 October 2026, with both scents available at Harrods. By 2 October 2026, both were listed and in stock on dolcegabbana.com in the US, UK and Italy.

The originals first launched in 1997. According to T3, both were discontinued in 2007.

Price

Each 100ml Eau de Parfum costs the same for both scents:

  • US: $345 at Dolce&Gabbana
  • UK: £281 at Dolce&Gabbana; £280 at Harrods
  • Europe: €330 at Dolce&Gabbana Italy and Germany

Dolce&Gabbana By Man Re-Edition Fragrance Notes

Dolce&Gabbana describes By Man as a woody aromatic created by Alberto Morillas:

  • Top: nutmeg, black pepper
  • Heart: lavender, artemisia
  • Base: amber, guaiac wood

Dolce&Gabbana By Woman Re-Edition Fragrance Notes

By Woman is a floral woody created by Domitille Michalon, according to the brand:

  • Top: bergamot, freesia
  • Heart: tiger lily, jasmine absolute
  • Base: sandalwood, coffee absolute

What Do They Smell Like?

Going by the official notes, By Man opens on spice (nutmeg and black pepper), moves to lavender and artemisia, and settles into amber and smoky guaiac wood. Dolce&Gabbana calls it "classic masculinity with a modern edge".

By Woman opens on bergamot and freesia, with tiger lily and jasmine at the heart. The base pairs sandalwood with coffee absolute, which the brand says leaves "a seductive trail of modern allure".

What Makes the By Man & By Woman Re-Edition Different?

  • Returning 1997 scents, not new flankers. Dolce&Gabbana calls them "iconic" creations from 1997 that "return", and T3 reports the contents have barely changed.
  • The original prints. By Man comes in zebra print with a black label embroidered in silver and a black velvet coffret. By Woman comes in leopard ("Leo") print with a black label embroidered in gold.
  • A growing Re-Edition Collection. They join Sicily Re-Edition and Masculine Re-Edition in Dolce&Gabbana's Re-Edition Collection.

Packaging

Both come in what the brand calls a "sculptural glass flacon" with a black textile label. Both caps are engraved "Dolce&Gabbana Est. 1985".

Where to Buy

Checked 7 October 2026: both scents in stock on Dolce&Gabbana US, UK, Italy and Germany; By Woman in stock and By Man out of stock at Harrods. We update this list when another market is confirmed.

SHISEIDO x Tomo Koizumi Holiday 2026: Release Date, Products & Prices

SHISEIDO x Tomo Koizumi holiday set: green brush on a gift box, ruffle-print compact, lip balm and pink serum bottle

The festive season has officially arrived at SHISEIDO. For Holiday 2026, the Japanese beauty house has teamed up with Tomo Koizumi, the Japanese dress designer known for his voluminous, rainbow-bright ruffled gowns. The theme is "Welcome to our party", and the collection brings Koizumi's colourful, dreamlike artistry to a limited line-up of makeup, a face brush and a fan-favourite serum. It launched in Japan on 1 October 2026 in limited quantities, so collectors will want to move quickly.

The Products

Lip Balm: Neon Green Statement (¥4,950)

The standout of the collection is a neon green lip balm with a unique texture that looks like glow-in-the-dark plastic. Despite its bold look, it's designed to give rich hydration in a single swipe, leaving lips plump and free of dullness. Japanese camellia oil gives it a smooth, glide-on feel. The packaging features Koizumi's signature ruffles, making it a gift-worthy treat.

Color + Glow Enhancer #20 FUSHIGI IRO (¥6,270)

This vivid compact holds a multi-use powder for both eyes and face. Fushigi iro translates to "mysterious colour", a fitting name for the swirl of pink red, pastel blue and moss green. On skin, the shades blend naturally into a glossy, non-powdery finish that gives a lit-from-within flush and glow.

How to use it:

  • Eyes: Sweep the pink red across the lid, then add moss green along the lash line for a playful party look.
  • Cheeks: Mix shades to create orange, pink or bronze tones that suit your complexion.
  • Highlight: Tap a light blend onto the cheekbones for a soft, dewy sheen.

DAIYA FUDE Face Duo (¥5,500)

This green gradient face brush is designed as the ideal partner for the Color + Glow Enhancer. It makes blending those multi-tonal shades effortless.

Ultimune Power Infusing Serum (¥19,800)

SHISEIDO's beloved Ultimune Power Infusing Serum arrives in limited-edition packaging where ruffles unfold like a blooming flower. The formula features camellia extract from Japan's Goto Islands, a flower that blooms even in harsh conditions. It's designed to give skin a firm, radiant look from within. It's a lovely luxury gift for skincare devotees.

Why We Love It

This collaboration manages to be both playful and wearable. The unexpected colours of the FUSHIGI IRO palette melt into skin naturally, and camellia appears throughout the collection, adding a thoughtful Japanese touch. Koizumi's ruffled designs turn every product into a keepsake, whether you're treating yourself or wrapping up a holiday gift.

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Not yet confirmed
  • International: SHISEIDO Japan (shiseido.co.jp), at SHISEIDO counters and online in Japan

As of 2 October 2026, the collection doesn't appear on SHISEIDO's US or UK sites. We'll update this post if a wider release is announced. Because the collection is limited, Japanese stock may sell out quickly.

Leighton Denny Tough Love Nail Polish 2026: Release Date, Price & What's New

Leighton Denny Tough Love bottle with silver cap, filled with deep plum creme polish

Leighton Denny Tough Love Opaque Nail Polish is a new deep plum creme nail polish with berry undertones for autumn/winter 2026. It costs £13.50 for 13.5ml on leightondenny.com in the UK, where it was listed from 30 September 2026. According to Leighton Denny, the UK nail brand designed the shade as "a sophisticated alternative to traditional burgundy."

When Did the Leighton Denny Tough Love Nail Polish Launch?

Leighton Denny hasn't announced an official release date for Tough Love. The polish was listed on the brand's official site from 30 September 2026 and tagged as new. It launched the same day as another dark-toned nail release, the JINsoon x Vintage Dusties The Icons Collection, a three-shade set inspired by blackened reds.

Price

Tough Love costs £13.50 for a 13.5ml bottle in the UK. US, European and other international prices have not been announced.

Shade and Finish

According to Leighton Denny, Tough Love is a rich, deep plum creme with berry undertones that gives a classic shade "a modern edge." The brand describes it as "bold yet easy to wear." It says the shade brings "a fresh update to the season's richer colour palette" and works "from day through to evening."

The finish is an opaque creme rather than a shimmer or glitter, with a high-gloss shine. Leighton Denny calls Tough Love "timeless and refined" and "a deep plum nail polish you'll reach for season after season." It's one of the autumn shades in our makeup release coverage. For another UK brand's autumn 2026 launch, see the Arttitude Cosmetics Espresso Eyeshadow Palette, a coffee-themed palette of browns, creams and golds.

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Leighton Denny (£13.50)
  • Europe: Not yet confirmed
  • Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 7 October 2026: the Leighton Denny product page offered a sign-up for a notification when the item is back in stock.

What Makes the Leighton Denny Tough Love Nail Polish Different?

  • Leighton Denny positions it as a plum alternative to traditional burgundy for autumn/winter, rather than another burgundy.
  • It is a single opaque creme shade with berry undertones and a high-gloss finish.
  • The brand lists it as vegan and cruelty free.

Formula and Ingredients

According to Leighton Denny, Tough Love uses a high-performance, long-lasting formula with a high-gloss, chip-resistant finish, and it is vegan and cruelty free.

The brand's product page lists the ingredients as: Butyl Acetate, Ethyl Acetate, Nitrocellulose, Acetyl Tributyl Citrate, Adipic Acid/Neopentyl Glycol/Trimellitic Anhydride Copolymer, Isopropyl Alcohol, Stearalkonium Hectorite, Silica, Citric Acid and Dimethicone. The colourants are listed as "+/-" and include CI 77266, CI 60725, CI 77891, CI 15850, CI 77007, CI 77742, CI 77491, CI 15985, CI 42090, CI 77510, CI 15880 and CI 19140.

How to Apply

Leighton Denny recommends applying Tough Love to clean, dry nails over a base coat such as its 2-in-1 Base Coat and Top Coat. Use two thin coats rather than one thick one, starting about 5mm from the cuticle and swiping the tip of each nail. Wait a few minutes, then finish with top coat, swiping the tips again.

prept Clinic-Grade Hypochlorous Skin Prep: Products & What's New

prept Clinic-Grade Hypochlorous Skin Prep: Products & What's New

Pale blue 500ml prept pro hypochlorous solution bottle with white disc cap and vertical white logo on a white background

Hypochlorous has quietly become one of the most talked-about ingredients in professional skincare, and a new UK brand wants to change how clinics think about it. prept, co-founded by Dr Kam Lally, is a clinic-grade hypochlorous skin-preparation range built on a simple idea: two ingredients, nothing more. It launches first for clinics and practitioners, with a take-home mist for consumers on the way.

What's New About prept

Not all hypochlorous solutions are made the same way, and labels rarely say which method was used. According to the brand, much of the hypochlorous on the market is made by acidifying bleach. prept takes a different route: it is produced in the UK through electrolysis of purified water and medical-grade salt.

The result is a pH-balanced solution with 99.6% purity, independently validated. Hypochlorous is also something the body already makes, which is part of why it suits sensitive skin so well. The brand sums it up as "hypochlorous as nature designed it."

Key Benefits

  • Cleanses and refreshes skin without stripping it
  • Visibly calms redness
  • Gentle enough for even the most sensitive skin
  • Hypoallergenic and dermatologist approved
  • Safe for use during pregnancy

The Two prept Products

prept pro (500ml solution) is the in-clinic workhorse. Practitioners use it before, during and after treatments to prepare and soothe skin.

prept go (100ml mist) is billed as "the 20-second skin reset" for skin under pressure. It is designed as a take-home partner after an appointment, and works just as well at the gym, while travelling, or whenever your complexion needs a quick refresh. Clinics can offer it as a simple retail add-on, so their care carries on into the client's daily routine.

How to Use prept go

The brand's ritual is refreshingly simple: Mist. Pause. Go.

  • Hold the bottle at a comfortable distance and mist evenly over the face.
  • Pause and let it settle on the skin.
  • Carry on with the rest of your routine, or simply get on with your day.

Sustainability and Giving Back

Every prept bottle is made from 100% Prevented Ocean Plastic, collected in coastal communities such as Bali, and it is fully recyclable afterwards. In addition, 2% of every sale funds the prept Foundation, which supports access to safe hygiene. Its work includes product and financial contributions, a "Sponsor a Kit" scheme for clinics, gyms and retailers, and outreach to healthcare professionals that delivers education, supplies and sustainable hygiene habits.

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Aspire Professional (professional accounts, for clinics and practitioners). prept go for consumers is coming soon via the prept website.
  • International: Not yet confirmed

If you're a skincare fan rather than a practitioner, ask your clinic whether it stocks prept go, or watch for the consumer launch on prept's own site.

  • Pink satin Eye Mask (full size)

Why It's Worth a Look

The standout products are the Dyson Chitosan Post-Style Serum and the Sensse LED Skin Lift device. Both are full size, and both are the kind of thing many people would hesitate to buy for themselves. Haircare lovers also get three full-size products. The set is £75 to buy, and Very says the same products bought one by one would be worth over £360.

How to Get the Most From It

  • Build a mini eye routine: Use the Patchology FlashPatch gels on a chilled face roller first thing in the morning to de-puff. Then pat on the Caudalie eye cream.
  • Exfoliate, then mask: Use the Nip + Fab glycolic scrub once or twice a week. Follow it with the ESPA detox mask or the STARSKIN collagen mask for a party-ready glow.
  • Don't skip SPF: The Ultrasun SPF50 fluid is light enough to wear under makeup every day, even in winter.
  • Do a festive finish: Dab Benetint and the Cloudtopia mousse on cheeks and lips, then add a coat of the gold OPI shimmer.
  • Gift the extras: The Moncler fragrance duo includes a Pour Homme mini, so it's easy to pass one on.

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Very (£75)
  • International: Not yet confirmed (Very ships to the UK only)

Beauty advent calendars with this many full-size products tend to sell out quickly. If The Festive Beauty Edit is on your wishlist, it's best to order it early.

FFS Luxury Shaving & Bodycare Advent Calendar 2026: Release Date, Products & Price

FFS Luxury Shaving & Bodycare Advent Calendar 2026: Release Date, Products & Price

FFS advent calendar contents: rose gold razor, body scrub, whipped butter, body oil, creams and water bottle on pink backdrop

If your idea of a festive countdown involves silky legs and a beautifully stocked shower shelf, the FFS Luxury Shaving & Bodycare Advent Calendar 2026 deserves a spot on your wishlist. The UK shaving and bodycare brand has packed over 20 items into a festive house-shaped box, covering everything from prep and exfoliation to a close shave and nourishing aftercare. FFS promises "no novelty fillers," and the contents back that up.

Release Date and Price

FFS added the calendar to its website in mid-September 2026, and it is available now for £75. The brand says the contents are worth over £150, though it hasn't published an itemised breakdown. Behind the 13th door is a limited-edition treat made exclusively for the calendar and not sold separately. FFS is keeping that one a surprise.

Products Inside the Calendar

The line-up covers your whole routine, from bodycare to the tools that keep your razor in good shape.

Shaving essentials

  • Razor Kit in Rose
  • 4 Premium SmoothGlide Blades
  • Moisturise & Glide Shave Cream (travel size, 50ml)
  • Shower & Shave Whipped Butter in Mango Twist (200ml)
  • Clamshell Blade Protector in Peach
  • Razor Shower Holder in Coral Reef
  • Premium Razor Stand in Rose Gold

Bodycare

  • Tranquil Escape Dead Sea Body Scrub
  • Tranquil Escape Dead Sea Body Butter (30g)
  • Revitalise & Renew Body Scrub (travel size, 50ml)
  • Hydrate & Exfoliate Body Soap with Coconut Husk (60g)
  • Smooth & Shine Body Oil (150ml)
  • Repair & Soothe Body Cream (travel size, 50ml)

Extras

  • Dry Soap Holder Pads (2 pack)
  • Sustainable Stainless Steel Water Bottle in Beige

The FFS razor and blades have earned a Which? Best Buy award, which makes the full razor kit one of the strongest items in the box.

How to Build Your Shave Routine

The calendar is built around a simple sequence, so here's how to use it:

  1. Exfoliate first. Use one of the body scrubs or the coconut husk soap a day or two before shaving. This lifts dead skin and helps prevent ingrown hairs.
  2. Soften and protect. Apply the shave cream or whipped butter to give the blade a smooth glide and reduce tugging.
  3. Shave gently. Glide the razor with light pressure. Rinse it often and store it on the stand or holder so it stays dry between uses.
  4. Lock in moisture. Finish with the body oil, cream or butter while skin is still slightly damp.

The travel sizes are handy for weekends away, and the full-size products will see you well past the festive season.

Who Is It For?

FFS says every product suits all skin types, including sensitive skin. If you react to specific ingredients, check each label as you open it. The contents are fixed, so you can't swap anything out. It makes an easy gift for anyone who loves a pampering shower routine, or a treat for yourself.

P.Louise Halloween Collection 2026: Release Date, Products & Prices

P.Louise Secrets In The Shadows palette box with iridescent foil keyhole cover, on purple marble with bare branches

Spooky season has officially arrived at P.Louise. The P.Louise Halloween Collection 2026 launched on 2 October 2026. It includes a light-up eyeshadow palette, new lip duo flavours, and dessert-scented skincare bundles. Some products ship now. Pre-order items will arrive after 9 October 2026.

The Star: Secrets In The Shadows Eyeshadow Palette

The Secrets In The Shadows Halloween Eyeshadow Palette (£45 / $58.50, pre-order) comes in book-style packaging with a keyhole cover marked "Shhh... it's our secret". The palette lights up when you open it, so you can see your shades clearly as you work.

It holds 54 shades across these colour families:

  • Steely greys
  • Bright pinks
  • Swampy greens
  • Bright oranges
  • Deep reds
  • Jewel-toned blues

Pro tip: For a wearable smoky eye, start with a grey in the crease. Press a jewel-toned blue onto the outer corner, then blend the edges. For a full Halloween transformation, layer swampy greens with orange for a witchy, high-impact look.

New Lip Duo Flavours

The best-selling Bad Bitch Energy Lip Conditioner & Lip Oil Duo (£22 / $29 each) comes in three new Halloween flavours:

  • Raspberry Laces (shimmer)
  • Blackberry Pie (shimmer)
  • Sour Watermelon (no shimmer)

Each duo pairs two products:

  • Stay Shining Lip Oil: a glossy, translucent oil with a soft hint of colour.
  • Protect Your Pout Lip Conditioner: a hydrating balm that works as lipcare, as a smoothing prep step before makeup, or as an overnight treatment.

All three flavours are also sold together as a lip trio.

The Crystal Bad Bitch Energy Lip Duo in Grape Soda (£22 / $29, pre-order) contains meadowfoam seed oil and vitamin E.

How to wear it: Apply the conditioner first to lock in moisture. Then swipe the lip oil on top for a juicy, glass-like shine.

Halloween Skincare Bundles

Skincare fans have several themed options:
