As we approach the winter season, it’s time to get excited for winter makeup trends and new winter beauty launches.
The importance of moisture
One great way to make sure that your makeup stays looking flawless all winter long is using a good, hydrating moisturizer. There are lots of quality products on the market, but I recommend the Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream or the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. These are two reliable products that keep your skin hydrated while also providing a great base for the rest of your makeup routine.
Feeling pale in these winter` 4 months?
No problem! Grab the Saie Super Glowy Gel in shade Sunglow to stay radiant and tan. Unlike some other popular bronzing drop products such as the Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi Drops and L’Oreal Lumi Glotion, Siae Super Glowy Gel isn’t patchy under makeup and is also very hydrating which is perfect for the winter season.
Winter Releases
As winter holidays are approaching such as Christmas and Hanukkah, brands are releasing new products that make great holiday gifts for friends and loved ones. Below are a few brands that have already released their winter specials.
- Makeup By Mario doesn’t play around when it comes to holiday releases. They have already released two new items for this upcoming season, an earthy eyeshadow palette and a lip gloss duo. Makeup By Mario is very famous for their limited edition Ethereal Eyes Palettes that change slightly every year. This year the brand focused on earth tones, with greens and browns,which is a new angle for the brand. They also released a lip gloss duo of the award winning Hydrating SuperShine Lip Gloss, which includes a new shimmer gloss, something the brand has never dipped their feet into until now. These items are perfect for someone in your life that wants to try something new this holiday season.
- Laneige who is best known for their viral Lip Glowy Balms and Lip Sleeping Mask, released a limited edition winter set. It includes a full size Peppermint Lip Glowy Balm and a mini sized Peppermint Lip Sleeping Mask. This set is perfect for a stocking stuffer to keep your lips hydrated and get someone in the holiday spirit.
- Tower 28 has gained a lot of traction on TikTok, which they are trying to grow on through collabing with Poppi this holiday season. Poppi came to Penn State this past month on their college tour, so Penn Staters will definitely be keeping an eye on this new release. The winter set is inspired by Poppi’s popular holiday soda Cranberry Fizz. The Fizz and Frost holiday set includes a full size GetSet Blush in Cranberry Fizz and a full size ShineOn Lip Jelly in Cranberry Frost. This set is perfect for the TikTok obsessed friend you have that wants something new and fresh this holiday season.
