New Makeup Releases: Release Dates, Shades & Prices

When Did the Allies of Skin Lab Drop Ampoules Launch?

Allies of Skin announced the Lab Drop 10/10/10 Ampoules on Instagram on 10 October 2026 ("Discover The Lab Drop at AlliesofSkin.com"). The product was available on its US, UK, EU and APAC storefronts by the same day.

What Makes the Lab Drop 10/10/10 Ampoules Different?

• It is the first ampoule format from Allies of Skin.
• It combines three active complexes at 10% each, according to the brand.
• It comes as 30 reusable airless-pump ampoules sold as a 4-month course, not a single serum bottle.

The Formula

Allies of Skin describes these three complexes:

• 10% Exo-GF: Vegan exosome-encapsulated EGF (epidermal growth factor). The brand claims up to 15x the exosome concentration of standard liposome delivery.
• 10% Advanced GF-Retin Complex:

- XEP-716 Miniprotein (5%)

- Bio-GF Source (3%), which contains five growth factors: IGF-1, EGF, acidic and basic FGF, and VEGF

- NovoRetin (2%), derived from lentisk tree bark from Chios, Greece, and described by the brand as a retinol alternative

• 10% Bio-Stem Peptide Complex:

- Tridecapeptide-1 / BGT TDP-1 (3%)

- NaturePep Pea (1%)

- SWT-7 (2%)

- IceAwake (2%)

- Allosteris (2%)

The brand says the formula contains no silicones, sulfates, denatured alcohol, synthetic dyes, added fragrance or essential oils. It also describes the product as cruelty-free and dermatologist tested.

Exosomes are appearing in other launches this season, including the FRUDIA Retinal B3 EXO RED Bubble Pack Booster. For a single peptide serum rather than a multi-complex course, see the goop Youth Boost Peptide Serum.

Brand-Reported Results

The figures below come from a 4-week study on 33 subjects that used expert visual grading and instrumental measurements, according to Allies of Skin:

• 109% improvement in radiance
• 106% improvement in healthy glow
• 94% improvement in overall skin appearance
• 75% improvement in skin smoothness
• 40% increase in hydration
• 40% reduction in visible redness
• 38% improvement in the appearance of facial contour and definition
• Up to 35% improvement in the look of elasticity
• 29% improvement in tone evenness
• 20% visibly firmer skin

The brand calls the results "in-office-caliber." It positions the ampoules as support between injectables, lasers and other in-clinic treatments. It is a cosmetic product, not a medical treatment. The Dior Capture PDRN-Shot is another 2026 at-home launch that borrows its language from in-clinic treatments.

How to Use

Allies of Skin says to shake the ampoule, then apply 1–3 pumps to the face and neck morning and night, after cleansing and misting. Follow with moisturiser, plus SPF in the morning, and return the ampoule to the box. The brand's Instagram also suggests using the ampoules as an eye serum.

Marc Jacobs' Daisy Violet Collection is four new versions of Daisy scents in matte purple bottles, with violet, berry, grape and praline accords.

Status: Unconfirmed — campaign visuals have surfaced. Marc Jacobs has not yet listed this collection on its site. Product names, packaging and release dates may change.

The four scents are Daisy Violet, Daisy Eau So Fresh Violet, Daisy Wild Violet and Daisy Love Violet. Marc Jacobs has not announced a price or release date, and no retailer lists the collection yet.

Updated 10 October 2026: We added the fourth scent, Daisy Eau So Fresh Violet, and the official note pyramids and fragrance families from Marc Jacobs' campaign visuals.

Marc Jacobs' other fragrance launch this season is the Marc Jacobs Just Perfect Eau de Parfum 2026.

When Did the Marc Jacobs Daisy Violet Collection Launch?

Marc Jacobs hasn't announced an official release date. According to Olfastory, the first three scents surfaced in an announcement in September 2026. On 10 October 2026, a fragrance blogger shared Marc Jacobs' own campaign visuals on Instagram, and those visuals showed a fourth scent.

Price

Marc Jacobs has not announced prices for any market.

What's New in the Daisy Violet Collection

The collection doesn't add a new Daisy pillar. Instead, it reworks four existing Daisy scents in purple packaging. The campaign tagline reads "The iconic Daisy bottle, dressed in bold purple & colorful cap."

Correction: Our earlier version cited Olfastory and iFragrance. It listed Daisy Wild Violet with a jasmine sambac heart and a creamy macadamia base, and Daisy Violet with a wild berries top. The campaign visuals list different notes:

• a blueberry heart and a sandalwood base for Daisy Wild Violet

What Does the Marc Jacobs Daisy Violet Collection Smell Like?

Based on the official notes, each scent opens on a fruit or candy accord, moves to a floral or berry heart, and settles on a woody or praline base. Leaked materials describe the collection as "floral, fruity, vibrant and joyful."

How the Four Compare

• Daisy Violet is violet from top to heart, over cedarwood.
• Daisy Eau So Fresh Violet pairs blackberry with green geranium and white woods.
• Daisy Wild Violet layers grape and blueberry over sandalwood. The blogger who shared the visuals noted that its blueberry heart fits the current interest in blueberry fragrances.
• Daisy Love Violet is the only one in the amber family, with sorbet and praline accords.

What Makes the Daisy Violet Collection Different?

• All four bottles are matte purple with orange lettering, replacing the usual Daisy packaging colours.
• Each scent comes with a fragrance family printed in the campaign visuals.
• Daisy Violet keeps the violet theme of the original Daisy but uses a cedarwood base instead of sandalwood.

Formula and Packaging

• Daisy Violet: matte purple bottle with the white daisy cap unchanged.
• Daisy Eau So Fresh Violet: tall Eau So Fresh bottle with a cap of white daisies with orange, green and pink centres.
• Daisy Wild Violet: Eau de Toilette, 50 ml / 1.6 fl oz, per the leaked box. The cap has white daisies with orange, pink and green centres and a gold collar. See our post on the original Marc Jacobs Daisy Wild.
• Daisy Love Violet: squat bottle with a single oversized white daisy with an orange centre.

The campaign images carry the line "Enhanced with AI."

How It Compares with Previous Releases

Daisy launched in 2007 and was created by Alberto Morillas. In 2008 it won two Fragrance Foundation FiFi Awards: women's fragrance of the year and best packaging.

Marc Jacobs often releases Daisy in limited-edition trios, such as:

• Spring (green and pink)
• Glow (yellow with neon pink, green and purple)
• the Marc Jacobs 3 New Daisy Pop Scents

Daisy Violet has four scents rather than three. No official source has confirmed whether it is limited or permanent.

Both scents centre on violet. Daisy Violet adds a candy accord and uses a cedarwood base.

Electrum Cosmetics' Kaleidoscope Clouds Collection is a 9-pan multichrome eyeshadow palette, a cream-to-powder shadow and a highlighter. The palette costs $75, and the three-piece bundle is $100. The collection went on pre-order at electrumcosmetics.org on 9 October 2026 at 2:00 pm Eastern. Electrum is a small US indie brand that hand-makes its products in the United States and says on its FAQ that they are cruelty-free and vegan.

Updated 10 October 2026: All four products are listed as pre-orders on electrumcosmetics.org. Twinkle Highlighter is limited edition, so stock can change quickly.

Release Date

Electrum Cosmetics announced the launch for Friday, 9 October 2026, at 2:00 pm Eastern. It published the date in a launch post on its own site. On the same day, Electrum's Instagram announced the collection as "AVAILABLE NOW". Every product is sold as a pre-order. Electrum's shipping policy says pre-ordered items ship in approximately 11 weeks unless the listing states otherwise, because every item is hand-made.

Kaleidoscope Clouds Prices

The Kaleidoscope Clouds Palette costs $75. Twilight CloudSet Shadow and Twinkle Highlighter cost $15 each. The Kaleidoscope Clouds Bundle includes all three for $100. Buying the three items one by one would cost $105. Electrum lists prices in USD only.

What's Inside the Kaleidoscope Clouds Bundle

The bundle contains three products, listed on Electrum's bundle page:

• Kaleidoscope Clouds Palette: 9-pan multichrome eyeshadow palette, size not listed
• Twilight CloudSet Shadow: cream-to-powder shadow in a jar, size not listed
• Twinkle Highlighter: pressed single-pan multichrome highlight topper, size not listed

Electrum lists no sizes, so a total weight can't be given.

Kaleidoscope Clouds Shades

Electrum's palette photo shows these nine shade names:

• Whimsical
• Altocumulus
• Cirrus
• Aurora Haze
• Kaleidoscope
• Horizon
• Prism
• Golden Hour
• Cloud 9

Electrum hasn't published individual shade descriptions. For the palette as a whole, the brand says: "Cool blue becomes violet. Green catches gold. Pink reveals flashes of blue. Orange burns brighter." Its swatch photos show pastel-to-vivid multichrome sparkle that shifts between blue and violet, green and gold, pink and blue, and orange.

Twilight CloudSet is described by Electrum as "a luminous white-to-gold sparkle". Twinkle is a highlight topper with multicolored reflective sparkles.

Another cloud-themed indie eyeshadow launch this season is the MBA Cosmetics Head In The Clouds Eyeshadow Collection. For another recent indie palette, see the Glaminatrix Into the Mist Palette.

Where to Buy

• US: Electrum Cosmetics, Kaleidoscope Clouds Palette ($75), Twilight CloudSet ($15), Twinkle Highlighter ($15), Kaleidoscope Clouds Bundle ($100). All are pre-orders.
• UK: No UK retailer found. Electrum ships internationally from its own site, with prices in USD and import duties paid by the customer.
• Europe: No European retailer found. Customers can order from electrumcosmetics.org in USD, with duties paid by the customer.
• Other markets: Availability varies by region, and more international stockists may be added.

Checked 10 October 2026: All four products are listed as pre-order on electrumcosmetics.org.

What Makes Kaleidoscope Clouds Different?

• Sky theme: Electrum named the collection after a rare optical phenomenon. The brand explains that Kaleidoscope Clouds occur when "thin, high-altitude clouds glow with soft pastel or vibrant rainbow colors".
• All-multichrome palette: All nine pans are multichromes. Electrum calls the palette "Prismatic Dreams' cooler, sparklier older sister".
• A lighter CloudSet: The original CloudSet came with Electrum's Poisoned Love collection and was "a grungy blackened purple scattered with multicolored sparkle". Twilight takes the formula to a white-to-gold sparkle.

Formula and Packaging

• Kaleidoscope Clouds Palette: According to Electrum, the multichromes are creamy and have an ultra-sparkly, high-reflective finish that builds from ethereal to intensely reflective. It is a 9-pan palette.
• Twilight CloudSet Shadow: Electrum describes a "bouncy, whipped texture in the jar". The brand says it melts onto the skin and sets to a sparkling finish without creasing. It comes in a jar, and Electrum suggests it for the lid, inner corner, brow bone and as a face highlighter.
• Twinkle Highlighter: Electrum calls it a multichrome highlight topper. It is a pressed single pan, and the brand says this limited-edition shade "will NOT return once sold out".

P Louise's Christmas lip drop pairs three limited-edition Bad B's lip duos with a 10-piece XL Protect Your Pout set, across five festive scents. P.Louise has not announced a price, release date or retailers for either product.

Status: Partially confirmed. P.Louise has teased the Christmas Bad B's and revealed the XL Protect Your Pout set on Instagram, but neither is on sale yet. Product names, packaging and release details may change.

Updated 10 October 2026: P.Louise revealed the XL Protect Your Pout Christmas set and two more scents, White Chocolate Raspberry and Pink Macaroon.

The brand's other holiday launch is the P.Louise What Glows Around Advent Calendar 2026, a 25-product calendar on pre-order for November 2026 delivery.

When Will the P Louise Christmas Bad B's and XL PYP Set Launch?

P.Louise hasn't announced an official release date for either product. The brand first teased the three Christmas Bad B's flavours on Instagram as "coming soon", then revealed the XL Protect Your Pout set in an Instagram reel on 10 October 2026. Neither post included a launch date or shopping link. This post will be updated when P.Louise confirms the details.

Price

No prices have been announced. For context, P.Louise's US site advertised three Bad Bitch Energy products for $38 on the existing range in September 2026; the brand hasn't said whether the Christmas flavours are included. A single Protect Your Pout Lip Conditioner costs £13 on plouise.co.uk and $17 on p-louise.com.

The XL Protect Your Pout Christmas Set

According to P.Louise's 10 October 2026 reel, the XL PYP set features 10 Protect Your Pout Lip Conditioners across two tiers, and "every finish comes in all five festive scents". The brand describes it as the "same PYP formula you know and love, just looking seriously extra for Christmas."

What's Inside

• 10 lip conditioners in total
• 5 tinted finishes
• 5 glitter-tinted finishes
• Size per item: not yet announced

The reel's cover image shows a model holding a tall, glittery champagne-coloured tube-shaped box with a heart-shaped top embossed "PL" and a gold base. Hands around it hold individual Protect Your Pout keychain lip conditioners in nude, pink, brown, red and white glitter tubes, against a snowy alpine backdrop.

How It Compares with the Cherry XL Set

The Christmas set is not to be confused with P.Louise's Protect Your Pout Cherry Lip Conditioner XL PR Gift Set, listed on plouise.co.uk since 20 June 2026 and in stock as of 10 October 2026.

Both sets share the two-tier, 10-piece format. The Christmas set swaps the all-cherry line-up for five winter scents.

The Christmas Flavours and Scents

Five scents feature across P.Louise's Christmas lip collection. Three appear in both products:

The brand spells it "Iced Gum Drop" in the Bad B's teaser and "Iced Gumdrop" for the PYP set. P.Louise hasn't published descriptions or tints for each flavour, nor confirmed whether the Bad B's will be sold as single duos or a bundle.

Where to Buy

• US: Not yet confirmed (both products)
• UK: Not yet confirmed (both products)
• International: Not yet confirmed (both products)
• Other markets: Not yet confirmed

Checked 10 October 2026: not yet listed on plouise.co.uk or p-louise.com.

What's New: What Makes the Christmas Lip Collection Different?

• Three of the five scent names reference snow or ice, and none of the Bad B's flavours appears in the trio line-ups on P.Louise's UK Bad Bitch Energy Lip Trio page.
• The same three scents (Strawberry Snowflake, Vanilla Snow Cream, Iced Gumdrop) appear across two formats, the Bad B's duo and the PYP lip conditioner.
• According to P.Louise, every finish in the XL PYP set comes in all five festive scents, where the June Cherry XL set used five cherry flavours.

Formula and Format

• Christmas Bad B's: According to P.Louise, the duo uses "soothing and softening ingredients" to nourish dry, damaged lips, with "a subtle tint". Each pairs a lip conditioner with a lip oil in what the brand calls its "iconic Bad B*tch Energy Juice Boxes".
• Protect Your Pout: P.Louise says the formula is built on emollients and coconut-derived fatty acids, a microcrystalline wax blend and vitamin E. The single version is sold as a keychain lip conditioner.

How It Compares with Previous Releases

Limited seasonal editions are a regular part of the Bad Bitch Energy range, including the Halloween Bad Bitch Energy Lip Conditioner & Lip Oil Duo (plus Crystal and Trio versions), the Bad Bitch Energy Lip Duo Easter Edition and the Teddy Glitter Bad Bitch Energy Lip Duo. The most recent seasonal flavours arrived with the P.Louise Halloween Collection 2026, launched on 2 October 2026. Earlier trio line-ups included wintry flavours such as Mint / Mint Chocolate / Frosted Peppermint and Cherry Bakewell / Christmas Pudding / Carrot Cake. Browse other makeup releases.

The Glossier Holiday 2026 Collection is a Glossier gift lineup of Glossier You fragrance sets, two new Balm Dotcom flavours and a Black Cherry Lip Duo. US prices run from $16 for a Balm Dotcom to $90 for the Glossier You Duo. The fragrance sets went on sale on 6 October 2026, and the lip products launched on 10 October 2026 at Glossier, Sephora (US and Canada), Sephora at Kohl's and Space NK.

Updated 10 October 2026: The Balm Dotcoms and Black Cherry Lip Duo are now on sale at glossier.com in the US and UK, with UK prices confirmed. Because the Balm Dotcoms and the Wardrobe Kit are limited edition, stock can change quickly.

Release Date

The Glossier Holiday 2026 Collection launched in two waves. The Mini Glossier You Wardrobe Kit and the Glossier You Duo were released on 6 October 2026, after first access in the Sephora App on 5 October 2026. Both sets appeared on glossier.com (US and UK) on 6 October 2026. The Just Baked and Toasty Nuts Balm Dotcoms and the Black Cherry Lip Duo went on sale on 10 October 2026, after first access in the Sephora App on 9 October 2026. Glossier announced the Black Cherry Duo on Instagram on 10 October 2026.

Each set costs less than the listed value of its contents.

What's Inside

• Mini Glossier You Wardrobe Kit: 4 x 5ml minis of Glossier You, You Doux, You Fleur and You Soie, per Space NK's "Set contains" (4 x 5ml = 20ml).

• Just Baked Balm Dotcom: a new limited-edition flavour of Glossier's lip balm and skin salve (see our post on the original Balm Dotcom formula). Glossier describes it as having "a sugary pastry flavor and a hint of mauve." Sephora listed it as a "New Limited Edition App Exclusive" during first access.
• Toasty Nuts Balm Dotcom: a sweet and salty flavour with a subtle copper shimmer.
• Black Cherry Lip Line + Balm Duo: Glossier's name for the set on glossier.com. Sephora lists it as "Black Cherry Balm Dotcom & Mini Lip Line Lip Liner Pencil Makeup Gift Set." Glossier pitches it for a "just-bitten" look and says it delivers "rich burgundy color and effortless definition." It is not to be confused with the Black Cherry Balm Dotcom that is sold on its own.

Glossier's images show a swatch of the Black Cherry Balm Dotcom and Lip Line, a lip comparison of bare lips, Lip Line alone and Lip Line with Balm Dotcom, and two still-life shots of the duo with cherries.
