MAOGEPING x Panda Creation "Fantasy Flower Realm" 2026: Products, Shades, Prices & Where to Buy

MAOGEPING and Chengdu Panda Base Cultural Creative (熊猫基地文创) launched Panda Creation, an eight-product makeup collection, at a launch event and fashion show in Chengdu on 26–27 May 2026. The collection is called 幻花御境 ("Fantasy Flower Realm") and is inspired by HuaHua (和花), the giant panda from the Chengdu Giant Panda Breeding Research Base. Internationally, proxy retailer LookHealthyStore now lists all eight products. Prices are confirmed in the sources for three of them: a cushion foundation in two shades ($89.99), a 3-shade concealer palette ($81.99) and a pressed powder ($72.99).

What's in the Panda Creation Collection?

According to MAOGEPING's announcement, the collection covers base, eye, cheek and lip products:

  • Mist-glow lasting liquid foundation
  • Clear-light cushion foundation
  • Long-wear 3-color concealer palette
  • Pre-makeup primer
  • Silky powder compact
  • Four-color shimmer eyeshadow palette in three colorways
  • Flowing-light blush stick
  • Crystal hydrating lip tint

The brand says each of the three eyeshadow colorways reflects a different side of HuaHua's personality: gentle, playful or cool.

Products, Shades & Prices

International pricing is confirmed for three products, all at LookHealthyStore. These are proxy-retailer prices, not MAOGEPING's domestic China prices, and may change.

MAOGEPING Panda Creation 1

The cushion foundation is listed in two shades, #101 Fair and #102 Natural. The concealer palette is described as covering dark circles, blemishes and spots from one 5g compact without pre-mixing. The pressed powder is positioned for setting and midday touch-ups.

Listed but not yet priced in our sources: LookHealthyStore's MAOGEPING page also lists five more products:

  • 4-color Eyeshadow Palette (T5988)
  • Blusher Stick (T5989)
  • Glossy Lip Gloss (T5990)
  • Makeup Primer (T5995)
  • Long-wear Liquid Foundation (T5996)

Prices and shade details for these five are not yet confirmed.

What's Notable

The collection covers prep, base, concealing, setting, eyes, cheeks and lips rather than a single themed product. The eyeshadow comes as three separate colorways instead of one shared palette. The cushion is sold as a compact plus a refill.

Price and Value

The three confirmed prices are $89.99 for the cushion, $81.99 for the concealer palette and $72.99 for the pressed powder. All are proxy-retailer prices that may include markup over MAOGEPING's domestic China price. A full value comparison isn't possible until prices for the other five products are confirmed.

Is It Limited Edition?

MAOGEPING has not officially confirmed limited-edition status. Collaboration collections built around one character often sell through faster than a brand's core range, but that is a general pattern, not a confirmed fact about this collection.

e.l.f. Glow Reviver Lip Oil Stick: New Shades to Shop Now

e.l.f. Cosmetics has added four new shimmer shades (Passenger Princess, Disco Flamingo, Plumstruck and Vanilla Vice) to its Glow Reviver Lip Oil Stick. The lip oil-lipstick hybrid costs $10 and was formerly known as the Glow Reviver Slipstick. It is available now from e.l.f. and Ulta Beauty in the US.

What's New

e.l.f. describes the Glow Reviver Lip Oil Stick as "the slick of your fave Glow Reviver Lip Oil in a stick." It combines the feel of a lip oil with the buildable color of a lipstick.

The product was formerly known as the Glow Reviver Slipstick. According to e.l.f., the renamed Lip Oil Stick is the same formula under a new name. It delivers medium, buildable color with a soft, shimmery finish.

Meet the New Shades

The four new shimmer shades are:

  • Passenger Princess – A pH-reactive light pink with delicate gold shimmer
  • Disco Flamingo – A cool-toned pink laced with pink pearl
  • Plumstruck – A rich plum shot through with pink and gold shimmer
  • Vanilla Vice – A nude beige with a wash of silver pearl

e.l.f. Glow Reviver Lip Oil Stick: New Shades to Shop Now — image 1

The range covers a nude, two pinks and a plum.

What Makes the Formula Special

The formula is built around a 3% nourishing complex of three ingredients:

  • Squalane
  • Shea butter
  • Jojoba oil

According to e.l.f., these ingredients help hydrate, smooth and soften lips. The ingredient list on Ulta Beauty also includes mango seed butter, avocado oil, apricot kernel oil and vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate). The brand describes the formula as gliding on with a non-sticky slip. Ulta Beauty's listing notes a subtle juicy mango scent.

How to Wear It

e.l.f. gives the following application steps:

  1. Prep clean, dry lips. For extra smoothness, use a lip scrub or balm first.
  2. Twist the bullet to reveal the oil stick and start at the center of your lips.
  3. Swipe and glide outward toward the corners of your mouth.
  4. Reapply whenever your lips need more hydration and tint.

Because the color is buildable, it can be worn sheer or layered for more pigment. It can also be layered over a matte lipstick for added shine.

Key Details

e.l.f. is double-certified cruelty-free by Leaping Bunny and PETA, and the product is listed as 100% vegan. According to the brand, its products are manufactured in Fair Trade Certified facilities through a partnership with Fair Trade USA.

The e.l.f. Glow Reviver Lip Oil Stick costs $10 and is sold at elfcosmetics.com and Ulta Beauty.

Rhode x Alexandra Leclerc: Everything to Know About the Pocket Pearl Mini Blush Collab

Rhode's Pocket Pearl is a mini, shimmery cream blush in three shades, launched in the limited-edition Rhode ❤︎ Alexandra Leclerc collection. It costs $16 (US) and went on sale 15 September at 9am PT, exclusively on rhodeskin.com. Rhode's site now lists the collection as sold out, with a waitlist open.

Release Date

The Rhode ❤︎ Alexandra Leclerc collection launched on 15 September at 9am PT / 12pm ET, exclusively at rhodeskin.com. Rhode's pages do not state the year. Rhode now shows the products as sold out and invites shoppers to join a waitlist "to know when our next launch arrives."

Price

  • US: Pocket Pearl $16; Peptide Lip Tint in Sweet Apple $20; Rhode Carabiner $12; Flutter Charm $8. The Alexandra's Set price is not yet announced in the available sources.
  • UK and Europe: Not yet announced

What's Inside Alexandra's Set

  • Pocket Pearl in a shade of your choice
  • Peptide Lip Tint in Sweet Apple
  • Flutter Charm
  • Rhode Carabiner

According to Rhode, the set comes with both a classic cap and looped caps for Pocket Pearl.

Shades and Products

Alexandra Leclerc is an art historian and an alum of the École du Louvre, where she specialised in 20th-century art. She lives in Monaco, is married to F1 driver Charles Leclerc, and became Rhode's first muse-ambassador in the brand's Fall 2024 campaign. The collection's names reference her star sign, her home, her favourite painter and her favourite desserts. Her dachshund Leo also appears in the campaign.

Pocket Pearl

According to Rhode, Pocket Pearl is "a tiny take on our coveted cream blush" that uses the brand's hydrating Pocket Blush formula with a reflective, shimmery finish. It is a smaller version of the original Rhode Pocket Blush, which has also been expanded with shades such as Rhode Pocket Blush in Sprinkle. The brand describes it as lightweight, melting onto skin and lasting all day for a "just-back-from-holiday" flush. Its three shades are:

  • Gemini: a shimmery candy pink, named for Leclerc's star sign
  • Monet: a shimmery apricot, inspired by her favourite artist
  • Monaco: a shimmery terracotta, a nod to her home city

Peptide Lip Tint in Sweet Apple

Sweet Apple ($20) is a sheer-but-buildable, shimmery golden brown Peptide Lip Tint designed to pair with Pocket Pearl. According to Rhode, it hydrates, nourishes and replenishes lips while adding high-shine shimmer. The brand says it smells like tart apple candy. Per Vogue, the name references Leclerc's favourite desserts. The same peptide formula also comes in shades such as Rhode Peptide Lip Tint in Pretzel.

Rhode Carabiner and Flutter Charm

The Rhode Carabiner ($12) and the Flutter Charm ($8) each come with a looped cap and jump ring, so Pocket Pearl can clip onto a bag, keychain or belt loop. The Flutter Charm is a tiny butterfly designed with Leclerc. Leclerc told Vogue she prefers makeup that "looks and feels like skin." She said she wears Gemini and Monet in summer and switches to Monaco with Sweet Apple in fall.

Where to Buy

  • US: Rhode (sold out; waitlist open). Rhode lists free US shipping on orders over $45.
  • UK: Not yet confirmed
  • Europe: Not yet confirmed
  • Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

What Makes the Rhode Pocket Pearl Different?

  • Rhode calls it the "tiniest rhode blush yet."
  • Each shade is named after part of Leclerc's world: her star sign, her favourite painter and her home city.
  • It comes with looped caps designed to clip onto the Flutter Charm or the Rhode Carabiner.

Formula and Packaging

According to Rhode, Pocket Pearl reimagines the Pocket Blush formula in three new shades with a shimmery finish. The brand says its bottles, caps and tubes are made with post-consumer recycled materials. For more face, eye and lip launches, see all makeup releases.

How to Use

Rhode suggests clipping Pocket Pearl onto the Flutter Charm or the Rhode Carabiner to carry it on a bag or keys. The brand recommends pairing it with Peptide Lip Tint in Sweet Apple.

Lisa Eldridge Luminist Concealer is a hydrating, luminous-finish concealer in 32 corrective, true-to-skin and hybrid shades. It launched at Space NK on 17 September 2026, after early access opened on Wednesday 16 September 2026 at 4pm UK time. The price has not yet been announced.

Release Date

Lisa Eldridge Luminist Concealer officially launched on 17 September 2026. Space NK opened early access the day before, on Wednesday 16 September 2026 at 4pm UK time.

Price

Luminist Concealer Shades

According to Lisa Eldridge, the 32 shades were developed to reflect the range of skin undertones. The shades are split into three types:

  • Pure corrective shades: for neutralising specific concerns such as blue-toned under-eye circles or redness
  • True-to-skin shades: for concealing in a shade matched to the complexion
  • Hybrid shades: formulas that both correct and conceal in one step

The three types can be layered. For example, a peach-toned corrector can go under a true-match shade for shadows, or a single hybrid shade can replace two separate products.

Luminist arrived in the same month as the By BEAUTY BAY Make Face Camouflage Concealer, a 25-shade multi-use concealer released in September 2026. Luminist is also a hydrating concealer like the Very Valentino 24 Hour Wear Hydrating Concealer, which comes in 20 shades. More face launches are listed in our makeup releases.

  • Seamlessly conceal dark circles, blemishes and imperfections
  • Correct colour concerns such as pigmentation and redness
  • Brighten shadowy areas for a lifted, refreshed appearance
  • Deliver buildable, natural-looking coverage that does not feel heavy

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Beautifying Cushion Foundation: The Glimmer Limited Edition

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Beautifying Cushion Foundation: The Glimmer Limited Edition

Charlotte Tilbury has released the Pillow Talk Beautifying Cushion Foundation in a Glimmer Limited Edition case, a sparkly pink version of the compact. It is the brand's first cushion foundation, offered in 5 shades with refills. Price and release date for the Glimmer edition have not yet been announced.

A New Chapter in the Pillow Talk Line

The Pillow Talk Beautifying Cushion Foundation adds a base product to Charlotte Tilbury's rose-toned Pillow Talk range. The Glimmer Limited Edition comes in a shimmering pink compact. The standard version uses a quilted pink compact with a mirror. According to Charlotte Tilbury, the foundation acts like a "beautifying filter" for a soft, pore-blurring glow.

What Makes This Cushion Foundation Special

The Pillow Talk line is built around a soft, rosy look. The brand describes this cushion foundation as a "love filter" that makes skin look smooth, radiant and even-toned.

Key details:

  • Smoothing, blurring formula: according to the brand, it softens the appearance of pores and imperfections.
  • Sheer-to-medium buildable coverage: the brand says it does not look cakey or crease into fine lines. Singapore retailer Beautyfresh describes the coverage as medium to high.
  • Silk Mesh Technology™: Charlotte Tilbury describes this as a nature-inspired polymer. According to the brand, it gives a breathable feel and makes the formula quick-drying and transferproof.
  • Golden Root Essence: the brand says this ingredient helps minimise the look of pores.
  • Hydration and wear claims: according to Charlotte Tilbury, it moisturises skin for up to 24 hours and offers 12-hour longwear. Both claims are based on the brand's own consumer testing.
  • Anti-oxidising shades: the brand says the shades stay true and do not oxidise.
  • 5 shades available, with refills offered for a more sustainable top-up. Beautyfresh says the shades were curated for Asian skin tones.
  • Limited edition Glimmer packaging in a sparkly pink finish.

How to Apply It

Cushion foundations work best with a light hand. The tips below follow the brand's directions where it gives them:

  1. Prep with hydration. Cushion formulas sit best on moisturised skin. Charlotte Tilbury suggests prepping with its Magic Cream.
  2. Press, don't swipe. The brand advises pressing the quilted puff into the micro mesh compact, then patting it onto skin. It says the teardrop shape is designed for precise application around the eyes, lips and nose.
  3. Build strategically. Start sheer across the whole face, then layer just where you need extra coverage, such as around the nose, chin or any redness.
  4. Blend. Charlotte Tilbury recommends soft, dabbing motions with the puff, your fingers or its Magic Complexion Brush.
  5. Top up on the go. The compact is slim and includes a mirror for touch-ups.

Key Details

The cushion joins the existing Pillow Talk lipsticks, blushes and eyeshadow palettes as the line's foundation option.

The Glimmer Limited Edition case is a limited run, and limited edition Pillow Talk pieces have tended to sell out quickly.

Where to Buy

  • US: Not yet confirmed
  • UK: Not yet confirmed
  • International: Charlotte Tilbury Hong Kong, Beautyfresh (Singapore). Both listings show the standard quilted compact; availability of the Glimmer case is not yet confirmed.

  • Mattes, metallics and multidimensional shimmer
