Every year, we eagerly await the return of Hourglass Cosmetics’ Unlocked palettes, and they’re finally here. This year’s collection includes new cover art as well as new highlighters, blushes, and bronzers—in fact, the three different palettes feature five additional shades each. For example, the Dragon palette has a never-before-seen peachy blush, a slightly pink finishing powder, and a completely matte bronzer. I’m always excited to see what Hourglass Cosmetics has in store for the holiday season, and these new palettes do not disappoint. I was born in the year of the dragon, so naturally, I had to go for that one—plus the color palette was right up my alley.
If celebs like Sandra Oh, Hailey Bieber, and Margot Robbie take pictures of their vanity, you’ll probably see Augustinus Bader’s The Cream in their vanities. Victoria Beckham Beauty and the popular skin care brand have teamed up to bring the same anti-aging technology to this click pen concealer; the complexion product formula contains Augustinus Bader’s signature Trigger Factor Complex, TFC8, lipids, peptides, and more nourishing ingredients to heal and treat the skin while it conceals any imperfections. You can’t deny that the convenience of a click pen concealer is unmatched. I like to swipe this one on my redness and dark spots and pat it in with my fingers for a skin-like glow.
Unless you have eyebrows like Lily Collins, chances are, you’re looking for a way to make your arches look fuller. This brow gel has a moussy texture that builds up on the hairs, thickening and coloring them with a natural color. A few quick swipes, and you’re good to go—a great option for anyone uncomfortable using a brow pencil or powder. There’s also an option for everyone in this wide shade range, from Auburn for redheads to Granite for those with gray manes.
In case you’re out of the loop, the fragrances of Bond No. 9 is inspired by different locales, neighborhoods, and aspects of our beloved New York City. The latest captures the spirit of Manhattan, home of the brand’s flagship store. When I first spritzed it on in the office, at least two other beauty editors immediately flocked to me to ask where it was from. It’s a sophisticated crowd pleaser and has many of my favorite notes, including white musk, ylang ylang, and Bulgarian rose.
