They come in two styles, Naturally Dewy and Dripping in Drama, and were on sale on Velour's US, Canadian, UK and Australian storefronts by 14 October 2026. For more false lash launches, see our lashes releases.

Updated 14 October 2026: Both styles are in stock on velourbeauty.com (US, Canada, UK, Australia). We didn't find them at Ulta, Target or Shoppers Drug Mart.

When Did the Velour x Spencer Self-Stick Lash Clusters Launch?

Velour hasn't announced an official release date for the Velour x Spencer Self-Stick Lash Clusters. Velour introduced them in an announcement caption, and both styles were listed and in stock on the brand's US, Canadian, UK and Australian storefronts by 14 October 2026.

Price

• US: $24
• Canada: CA$35
• UK: £19
• Australia: A$35

The Spencer clusters cost more than Velour's other Velour-Xtensions Self-Stick clusters. Velour lists Everyday Natural, Soft & Wispy and the Velour x CGonzalez Beauty clusters at $18 each on velourbeauty.com. Those are separate products. They are not alternative versions of the Spencer pack.

What's Inside

According to Velour, each pack contains:

• 24 Velour x Spencer Self-Stick Lash Clusters (pre-glued)
• 1 Velour x Spencer Lash Applicator (gold, per the packaging)

The box reads "Pre-glued | Wet lash effect" and "24 clusters - Lash Lift L-Curl".

Both styles use the same wet-inspired pattern and L-Curl. Dripping in Drama has fuller density and runs 2mm longer at each end of the length range.

Where to Buy

Checked 14 October 2026: Both styles were in stock on velourbeauty.com (US, Canada, UK, Australia). We didn't find them at Ulta, Target or Shoppers Drug Mart.

What Makes the Velour x Spencer Self-Stick Lash Clusters Different?

• Wet-lash pattern: Velour says the custom pattern copies the way natural lashes softly gather when damp, "after a hot shower or a good cry."
• Lash Lift L-Curl: According to Velour, the curl lifts the lashes from the root for an eye-opening effect.
• Smallest band: Velour describes the band as its smallest ever. The clusters come pre-glued on the tray, with no glue or dry time.

Spencer Hedges explains the design approach in Velour's campaign: "For me, it all came down to spacing—separation and balance are everything. And the curl had to be just right to recreate that lifted shape I'm always looking for."

How to Apply

Velour's directions start with curling your natural lashes and applying a light coat of mascara, then letting it dry. Next, place each cluster underneath your natural lashes at the base of the lash line and clamp them gently together with the applicator. For Spencer's signature technique, apply 4–5 clusters per eye, spaced slightly apart, with the longest length at the outer corner and shorter lengths toward the inner corner. To remove them, peel each cluster off slowly with clean fingers.

The Tom Ford Reserve Lip Color Case in a new croc design is a refillable aluminium lipstick case with black croc-embossed panels and a gold T bar. It costs €120 at Breuninger Germany and is on sale there now. The case comes without a lipstick, so the Reserve Lip Color Refill is sold separately. It is the latest addition to Tom Ford Beauty's Reserve lipstick range.

For the refill shades that fit this case, see our post on Tom Ford Reserve Lip Color Sloane Coral, Soho Mauve & Sublime Rose.

Updated 14 October 2026: In stock at Breuninger in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Poland, with low stock shown. It is not listed on Tom Ford Beauty US or UK.

When Did the Tom Ford Reserve Lip Color Case Croc Design Launch?

Tom Ford Beauty hasn't announced an official release date for the croc design. German beauty blog Glam-Junkies reported the new case on 14 October 2026. By the same day, it was on sale at Breuninger in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Poland.

Price

The croc case is listed at these Breuninger prices:

• €120 in Germany and Austria
• CHF 135 in Switzerland
• PLN 550 in Poland

In the US, Tom Ford Beauty sells the fluted cases for $125 each. It also sells a case-and-refill bundle for $175 and a single refill (0.11 oz) for $50. No US or UK price has been published for the croc design.

All three cases are aluminium and take the same Reserve refills. The croc version swaps the fluted surface for croc-embossed black panels framed by gold.

What Makes the Croc Design Different?

• Surface: Breuninger's packshot shows four glossy croc-embossed black panels instead of the fluting on the Black Fluted and Gold Fluted cases.
• Gold T bar: a polished gold bar runs the length of the case, with a horizontal gold band where the cap joins the body.
• Availability: Tom Ford Beauty US lists only the two fluted designs. So far, we have found the croc design only at Breuninger.

Packaging and How Refilling Works

According to Tom Ford Beauty, the case is made from a single, uninterrupted piece of aluminium. The brand says it chose aluminium for its strength-to-weight ratio, which allows sharp detailing and a distinctive feel in the hand.

To refill, Tom Ford Beauty says to insert the refill into the case and rotate it gently. A soft click confirms the lipstick is locked into the base.

Where to Buy

• US: Not yet confirmed for the croc design. The Tom Ford Beauty US site lists only the Black Fluted and Gold Fluted cases ($125).
• UK: Not yet confirmed.
• Europe:

- Breuninger Germany (€120)

- Breuninger Austria (€120)

- Breuninger Switzerland (CHF 135)

- Breuninger Poland (PLN 550)

- Refill: Breuninger Germany (€49)

• Other markets: Availability varies by region; more international stockists may be added.

Checked 14 October 2026: In stock at Breuninger (DE, AT, CH, PL), with low stock shown. Not listed on Tom Ford Beauty US, Tom Ford Beauty UK, Selfridges or Notino Germany.

MOB Beauty's Paloma's Rich & Romantic Lip Duo is a limited-edition bundle pairing a Cafecito brown lip liner with a Sangria garnet wine lip balm. The duo costs $42 at mobbeauty.com and went on sale on 13 October 2026. It was created with beauty and lifestyle creator Paloma as part of MOB Beauty's Lab Community creator series, and both shades are also sold individually.

Updated 13 October 2026: The duo is sold out at mobbeauty.com, while the Cafecito liner and Sangria balm are in stock individually. Because it's limited edition, stock can change quickly.

Release Date

Paloma's Rich & Romantic Lip Duo launched on 13 October 2026, when MOB Beauty listed it on mobbeauty.com alongside the two shades and its MOB x Paloma creator page, and the launch was announced as "available now". MOB calls the duo limited edition and says it is available "for a limited time only."

Price

• Duo: $42 (US)
• Smooth Precision Waterproof Lip Liner in 213 Cafecito: $22 (US)
• Hydrating Shine Lip Balm in 301 Sangria: $24 (US)

The bundle costs $42. Buying the two products one at a time would cost $46. MOB lists the duo's value as $60 CAD but hasn't confirmed a Canadian price for the duo.

What's Inside

• Smooth Precision Waterproof Lip Liner in 213 Cafecito
• Hydrating Shine Lip Balm in 301 Sangria

MOB doesn't list the product sizes on the duo page.

Shades

• Cafecito (213): MOB describes this Smooth Precision Waterproof Lip Liner as a warm brown. Paloma says: "I created Cafecito for my community because I refused to give up on finding the perfect brown lip."
• Sangria (301): MOB describes this Hydrating Shine Lip Balm as a rich garnet wine. Paloma says: "I created Sangria for the girls who love a vampy red - dark, moody, romantic, and inspired by the rich red colors of Mexico."

MOB's images show both products, swatches of each shade, and the finished combo on two models with medium and deep skin tones.

Where to Buy

• US: MOB Beauty ($42 duo). Individually: Cafecito liner ($22) and Sangria balm ($24).
• UK: Not yet confirmed
• Canada: mobbeauty.com ships to Canada. MOB hasn't confirmed a CAD price for the duo.
• Europe: Not yet confirmed
• Beautylish (international): Not yet confirmed. MOB ships internationally through Beautylish, but neither shade was listed there.
• Other markets: Availability varies by region, and more international stockists may be added.

Checked 13 October 2026: The duo was out of stock ("Notify me when available") at mobbeauty.com. The Cafecito liner and Sangria balm were in stock individually there. Beautylish did not list either shade.

What Makes the Paloma's Rich & Romantic Lip Duo Different?

• A creator-built combo: MOB developed both shades with Paloma at the MOB Lab. Paloma ties the launch to Hispanic Heritage Month, saying: "This Hispanic Heritage Month, I'm finally bringing my dream lip combo to life."
• Two ways to buy: The duo is a limited-edition bundle, but both shades are also listed on MOB's individual liner and balm pages.
• A liner-and-balm format: The bundle pairs a waterproof liner with a glossy tinted balm, not a liner and lipstick. MOB says the pair gives "a softly lined edge and lush, glossy color."

MOB has worked with creators before, including the MOB Beauty x Courtney Quarantine Grunge Collection.

Formula and Packaging

• Smooth Precision Waterproof Lip Liner: MOB says it is waterproof and richly pigmented. The brand also says it won't transfer, feather or bleed, and is smooth enough to fill in the whole lip.
• Hydrating Shine Lip Balm: According to MOB, it contains jojoba, mimosa and sunflower oils and gives buildable color with a glossy finish.
• Packaging: MOB Beauty describes itself as a refillable, earth-first clean makeup brand that uses bio-based packaging.

For other recent liner launches, see the MOIRA Blur Lip Contour Liner and the Fire Vixen Eternal Bond Lip Liners.

How to Wear It

MOB suggests lining the lips with Cafecito and topping them with Sangria for a defined, romantic lip. The brand says the liner is smooth enough to fill in the whole lip before the balm goes on.
