Here are some holiday products from Charlotte Tilbury (Magic Star highlighter, new Instant Look palette) and Anastasia (two sets!). If you don’t see me for a few days, assume I’m buried under holiday palettes and kits… and maybe send Mellan to investigate.

In keeping with CT’s annual release of a face and cheek palette, I think these are fairly similar shades that we have seen before. I do like them though, although the inclusion of a bronzer is a tough one because not everyone uses one and it’s hard to generalise a shade.
Of the lip glosses – Beaming is a gorgeous shade.
I had to have a little laugh at your comment Christine – we will send Mellon on a search party like a St. Bernard looking for someone buried in the snow – but in your case it will be Holiday products!
This is the first CT instant look palette I’ve been drawn to. If it gets a good review I’ll seriously consider it as my Christmas gift to myself.
I really hope ABH brings Beaming out as a single!
For such a light liquid matte shade Peachy doesn’t look too bad but Sand…ooof!
Sand makes my lips hurt just looking at it.
Finally, a CT face kit that would actually work on my complexion and eye color without going ash-ville station territory!
The ABH trio is super nice, also!
But nothing about the lipsticks is doing it for me. Not even a little.
I’m not really liking any of this, but the lipsticks look especially unappealing.
I thought I wanted the Anastasia lip set. Now that I’ve seen your swatches… I definitely want that lip set. ?
On Mute is calling my name. Very quietly of course, but I can hear it.
