2017 Holiday Guide

“It’s the most wonderful time of the year!”

Whomever said that about the holiday's clearly did not have to buy all the Christmas presents, wrap them all, hide the gifts, decorate the tree, decorate the house, cook the meals and clean up from the meals. Oh and not to mention keep everyone happy and cheery, and tra-la-la’ing through the season. Try doing all that and chasing kids around...it is not so freaking, stinking wonderful! (Kidding with the oh-o sarcastic wonderful time of the year, or am I?! haha)


This time of year though brings about some of the most incredible holiday cosmetics collections and here is our top list of the items that should be on your shopping list for this upcoming 2017 holiday season.

(**This holiday guide will be updated as new holiday collections are launched. Keep checking back for more of our suggestions!**)


The Tarte limited edition treasure box collectors set ($59)
Find our review on this product here - Tarte Limited Edition Treasure box collectors set




This Tarte collection contains:
24 of Tarte's Amazonian clay eyeshadows (including new mattes and metallics), Amazonian clay blush, highlighter and bronzer, sex kitten eyeliner (full size) and lastly, lights-camera-lashes mascara (deluxe sample size) and tarteist quick dry matte lip paint.


The treasure box collector's set will give you everything you would expect from Tarte products. The eyeshadows are as pigmented, creamy and blendable as all of their other palettes are. Do we need to discuss the cult-like following that lights-camera-lashes has? If you are looking for an all in one makeup gift for someone, this would be it.


GLAMGLOW #glittermask Gravity Mud Firming Treatment ($69)




The GLAMGLOW #glittermask is the original Gravity Mud formula, expect it is loaded with glitter! This mask will firm, lift, tighten and tone your skin, while simultaneously helping you feel like a sparkly, shiny star.


Becca Apres Ski Glow Collection Eye Lights palette ($45)




The Becca Apres Ski Glow Collection Eye Lights palette is the perfect mix of the Becca satin and shimmer highlighters we have come to expect from the brand. With several different color and finish options in this palette, it has everything a highlight addict (*ahem*  takes one to know one!) would love. (As of the posting date 14th of November 2017, the palette is currently on sale for $29 on the Becca company website)


Makeup Revolution 12 Days of Christmas 2017 ($50 available only at Tam Beauty)




This box set from Makeup Revolution is a Makeup Revolution fan’s dream come true. This box is filled with 12 fan favorite products from the UK based brand. Products included are, Aqua Priming Base, Pro Fix Makeup Fixing Spray, Focus & Fix Eye primer, Ultra Nudes 2018 gloss set, Ultra Strobe Balm Palette, Ultra Strobe Cream, HD Pro Brows palette, Ultra Colour Explosion Palette, Ultra Metals Palette, Ultra Newtrals Palette, Blush Dream palette, and Pro Go Brushes 2018.


Formula 10.0.6 Merry Multi Masking Holiday Collection ($9.99 at Ulta)



If you have a skincare junkie within your midst, the Formula 10.0.06  holiday mask collection is the affordable gift you need to pick up for them. This mask collection covers all your bases, from deep cleansing to calming all the way through illuminating. The price point of these products may make you question their ability to perform, but trust me, these masks will not disappoint.
