ZOEVA's Velvet Love Eyeliner Pencil in Metallic Truffle is a new warm grey-brown shimmer shade of the brand's gel-like eyeliner pencil. It costs $23.00 (US), $22.00 (International) and €19.50 (EU). It went on sale on 29 September 2026 as an online exclusive on ZOEVA's own websites. The brand describes the shade as a "Warm Grey-brown Shimmer", a softer alternative to black liner in the same formula as the other Velvet Love Eyeliner Pencil shades.

Release Date

Metallic Truffle was released on 29 September 2026 on ZOEVA's websites, where it is labelled NEW. It arrived days after another gel eye pencil launch, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dramaline Gel Eyeliner Pencil, which went on sale at Ulta on 27 September 2026. You can follow other new eye, lip and face launches in our BeautyTalkClub makeup releases category.

Price

• US: $23.00
• UK: Not yet announced
• Europe: €19.50 (base price €1,625.00 / 100 g, incl. VAT, plus delivery)
• International: $22.00

Shades: Metallic Truffle

Metallic Truffle is a shade extension: it brings the existing Velvet Love Eyeliner Pencil formula to a new colour. According to ZOEVA, the warm grey-brown base gives soft definition, and the light-catching shimmer shows at its fullest in daylight. Another brand has also recently added a shade called Truffle to an eye pencil: NABLA Cupid's Arrow Micro Truffle & Blue Amber, announced on 6 October 2026.

ZOEVA sorts Velvet Love Eyeliner Pencil shades into two finishes. Metallic shades have a shimmering, light-reflecting finish. Perfect shades finish smooth and matte. The brand says both share the same creamy, gel-like formula and up-to-8-hour wear. ZOEVA's product page also has an Eye Colour filter that shows which shades it suggests for brown, blue, grey, hazel or green eyes.

Where to Buy

• US: ZOEVA US ($23.00)
• UK: Listed in ZOEVA UK's eyeliner range; price not yet announced
• Europe: ZOEVA EU (€19.50)
• Other markets: ZOEVA International ($22.00). Availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

ZOEVA currently lists the shade as an online exclusive, sold through its own websites.

What Makes the Velvet Love Eyeliner Pencil Metallic Truffle Different?

• It pairs a warm grey-brown base with a metallic shimmer, where ZOEVA's Perfect shades are matte.
• ZOEVA says Metallic shades are made for the lash line and doesn't recommend them on the waterline. It recommends Perfect shades for the waterline.
• ZOEVA currently lists it as an online exclusive on its US, EU and International sites.

Formula and Brand Claims

According to ZOEVA, the formula is:

• Highly pigmented: gives dramatic definition in one stroke
• Gel-like and ultra-creamy: glides on without pulling or dragging the skin
• Waterproof and smudge-proof once set: holds for up to 8 hours
• Suitable for sensitive eyes: the brand says it is dermatologically tested and was well tolerated by people with sensitive eyes, with the results confirmed by ophthalmologists. ZOEVA also describes it as 100% vegan.

ZOEVA cites a consumer-perception study of 22 women:

• 100% said the colour is intense from the first swipe and easy to blend straight after application
• 95% said the colour stays even and intense after 8 hours of wear
• 91% said it does not crease, transfer or settle into lines, and that it feels comfortable on the eyelid
• In a subgroup of 8 women aged 40+, 100% agreed it performs well on hooded and mature eyelids. 88% agreed it still performed well after 8 hours of wear.

Ingredients (per ZOEVA): Dimethicone, Mica, Synthetic Wax, Silica, Stearyl Dimethicone, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Trimethylsiloxysilicate/Dimethiconol Crosspolymer, Polyglyceryl-4 Diisostearate/Polyhydroxystearate/Sebacate, Octadecene, Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Tocopherol, Pentaerythrityl Tetra-di-t-butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Allantoin, Panthenol, Isoceteth-10, CI 77491 (Iron Oxides), CI 77499 (Iron Oxides), CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide), CI 77492 (Iron Oxides).

ZOEVA's product safety information gives the manufacturer's address as Karl-Ritscher Anlage 1-3, 60437 Frankfurt. ZOEVA also uses the Velvet Love name for its liquid blushes; recent shades are covered in ZOEVA New Shades of Velvet Love Liquid Blush.

How to Use

ZOEVA says the pencil can create a classic wing, a bold line or a smudged-out smoky eye. For more depth, it suggests applying one pass, blurring the edge with the ZOEVA 230 Detail Smoky Blender Brush before the formula sets, then layering a second pass. To keep a precise tip on the soft texture, the brand recommends a high-quality cosmetic sharpener such as the ZOEVA Single Sharpener or the Velvet Love Duo Sharpener.

Moira Cosmetics' Chroma Light Shadow adds six new single metallic and duo-chrome eyeshadow shades, numbered 025 Venus Rising to 030 Frozen Orbit. Each costs $6.00 (US), and the shades went on sale on Moira's website on 29 September 2026 after an Instagram teaser reading "You asked and we listened…". They join shades 001–024, such as Tempting, Sugar Crush and Renegade, bringing the Chroma Light Shadow line to 30 shades.

MOIRA has since launched the MOIRA Blur Lip Contour Liner, a $7 soft-focus matte lip liner in 12 shades, on moirabeauty.com on 8 October 2026.

Release Date

The six new Moira Chroma Light Shadow shades launched on 29 September 2026 on moirabeauty.com, following the brand's Instagram teaser. No retailer launch dates have been announced.

Price

• US: $6.00 per shade, the same as the existing shades 001–024
• UK: Moira shows prices in GBP at checkout; a fixed UK price has not been announced

Moira's collection page also lists a "Chroma Light Shadow Bundle ($144 Value)". The page does not state the bundle's price or which shades it contains.

Meet the New Shades

Each new shade is a single pressed eyeshadow in Moira's clear square compact:

• 025 Venus Rising: warm champagne-peach with a rose-gold metallic sheen
• 026 Cosmic Garden: icy mint-green duo-chrome with a violet shift
• 027 Moonflower: olive-gold and bronze duo-chrome with a green-gold shift
• 028 Aurora: lilac-lavender metallic with pink sparkle
• 029 Solar Kiss: coral-red to copper-gold duo-chrome
• 030 Frozen Orbit: icy white-pearl and silver shimmer

Where to Buy

• US: Moira Cosmetics: 025 Venus Rising, 026 Cosmic Garden, 027 Moonflower, 028 Aurora, 029 Solar Kiss, 030 Frozen Orbit ($6.00 each)
• UK: Moira Cosmetics ships to the UK, with prices shown in GBP at checkout. No UK retailer is confirmed yet.
• Europe: Not yet confirmed. Moira ships internationally, and customs or duties may apply.
• Other markets: availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

What Makes the Moira Chroma Light Shadow Different?

• The six new shades use cosmic-themed names, from Venus Rising to Frozen Orbit, and are numbered 025–030 after the line's existing 24 shades.
• Moira's ingredient lists show two bases: 025, 028 and 030 are built on aluminum starch octenylsuccinate with no mica listed, while 026, 027 and 029 list mica and synthetic fluorphlogopite.
• 030 Frozen Orbit lists titanium dioxide (CI77891) as its only colourant. 028 Aurora lists ultramarines, ultramarine pink and carmine.

Formula and Packaging

According to Moira, the Chroma Light Shadow is a highly pigmented metallic eyeshadow with a foiled finish. The brand says it uses micro-fine glitter for multidimensional sparkle with minimal fallout, has a creamy texture that blends easily, and gives long-lasting shine. Moira says the formula can be layered, from a subtle metallic glow to a bolder look.

Moira describes the product as vegan, paraben-free, phthalate-free and gluten-free. However, the ingredient list on the 028 Aurora page includes Carmine (CI75470). Customer reviews on the product pages predate the new shades and refer to the existing Chroma Light Shadow line.

It is Moira's latest shimmer launch after the MOIRA Cosmetics Dreamlight Highlighter Balm and the MOIRA Dreamlight Glow & Blur Blush Kit, which pairs that highlighter with Love Blur Blush. For other eye, face and lip launches, see BeautyTalkClub's makeup releases.

How to Use

Moira recommends priming the lids with its Eyeshadow Primer (sold separately), then packing on colour with a flat or firm brush. The brand suggests blending with a fluffier brush for a more all-over sparkle, or applying with fingertips.

According to Lip Lab, it exfoliates with fair trade golden sugar, which buffs lips physically, and papaya enzymes, which loosen dead skin cells. The brand says its agave extract and squalane help nourish and hydrate. Lip Lab describes the scrub as clean, vegan and cruelty free.

How to Use

Lip Lab's directions for the scrub are to scoop a little, massage it over the lips and wipe it away, with water optional. According to the brand, the scrub also helps remove longwear lip colour. For the gloss, Lip Lab says to swipe it on and add layers for more vibrancy and saturation.

Ravie Beauty released four new shades of its Soft Definition™ Longwear Lip Liner on 25 September 2026, bringing the range to eight shades at $18 (US) each. The new shades are Macaron, Strawberry, Truffle and Plum, and they are available now at ravie.com.

Ravie Beauty's next launch, the Ravie Beauty Softlight Glistening Eye Topper, arrives on 23 October 2026 in three shades.

What's New: Four Fresh Shades

The release date for the new shades was 25 September 2026 on Ravie Beauty's official site. The additions are:

• Macaron: a soft neutral pink
• Strawberry: a bright neutral pink
• Truffle: a medium cool brown, deeper and greyer than Almond
• Plum: a neutral berry brown

They join the original four: Honey (muted neutral beige), Almond (cool brown), Fig (neutral mauve) and Mocha (deep brown). According to Ravie, a shade close to your natural lip colour gives subtle definition, while a deeper shade gives more contrast. The brand points to Almond or Truffle for more shape and contrast, and to Strawberry or Plum for more colour.

What the Brand Says

Ravie Beauty describes Soft Definition™ as a liner that is creamy and blendable but also longwear. According to the brand:

• Smooth glide: it glides on easily, even along the outer edge of the lips. Ravie credits jojoba and other conditioning ingredients for the smooth, creamy feel.
• Blendable before it sets: the edges can be softened with a fingertip while the formula is still creamy.
• Waterproof and smudge-proof once set: the brand says it stays put after it dries down.
• Buildable: it can be applied lightly for a hint of shape or built up for a more sculpted lip.
• Helps prevent bleeding: Ravie says lining before lipstick helps keep colour from spreading past the lip line.

Ravie notes that the liner is less suited to anyone who prefers a very sheer pencil or wants to keep blending long after application.

How to Use It

1. Line your lips. Outline them, or fill them in completely for more colour. For softer edges, blend with a fingertip straight away. Working one section at a time helps.
2. Let it set. Give it a moment before adding lipstick, gloss or balm on top.
3. Wear. According to Ravie, it stays in place once set.

Ravie also suggests filling in the whole lip with liner before adding lipstick or gloss. The brand says this helps the colour on top last longer, or the liner can be worn alone. The pencil is sharpenable, so any compatible cosmetic sharpener can be used to refresh the tip.

Price and Value

All eight shades cost $18 each in the US. The price is the same for the original shades and the new ones. Ravie describes the formula as clean, vegan, cruelty-free and made in the USA. The brand also says it will make things right if a shade isn't what you expected.

Where to Buy

• US: Ravie Beauty ($18 each, available now)
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• International: Not yet confirmed

Cloud Whip Lip & Cheek Puddings ($10 each)

ColourPop says these whipped Lip & Cheek Puddings give soft, buildable colour with a weightless texture made to blend. Each comes with a Silicon Jelly Wand. According to the brand, the wand picks up just the right amount of product and melts it onto skin in one smooth swipe. There are five shades:

• Better Weather (warm pink)
• Cozy Cardigan (warm berry)
• Cider Sip (pinky terracotta)
• Chilly Air (reddish terracotta)
• Spiced (rich cool-toned berry)

ColourPop suggests tapping on a little for a sheer flush or layering for more colour. The brand also suggests using the same shade on lips and cheeks for a monochromatic fall look.

Cloud Whip Blurring Lip Liners ($9 each)

According to ColourPop, the Cloud Whip Lip Liners glide on with a soft, pillowy feel and blur into lips for diffused definition. There are four shades: Velvet Season (rosy pink), Layered Up (warm terracotta), True Autumn (soft plum) and Valley Oak (warm saddle brown).

ColourPop offers several sets from the collection:

• Fallen Collection (palette, liners and puddings): $107
• Fallen Hard (all four liners): $32

  • After Dusk (Velvet Season + Spiced)

How to wear a duo: ColourPop recommends gliding the liner along the natural lip line, then softly blending for a diffused finish, and filling in lips for more colour. Tap the pudding over the top and blend the edges with a finger. Finish by dabbing the same pudding onto the apples of the cheeks.
