Rouge Allure Velvet Nuit Blanche

They say: A limited-edition collection of lipsticks featuring eight new shades for “all-night outing.” Boasting shea butter and a jojoba oil derivative for soft, smooth lips, the luminous matte lipsticks offer long-wear colour in a chic, new black-and-white case.

We say: These lipsticks provide fully pigmented colour with one sweep. With a true matte finish and a hint of pearl, the formula is non-drying and lightweight. Named for the hours the stylish lipstick shades might be worn during a night out, our tester loved the hue 04:00, a warm brown with a hint of berry.

Demi’Glow Highlighter

They say: A limited-edition collection of skin-tone matched highlighters that offers ‘superfine pearls’ and a second-skin feel. Featuring nine shades, the long-wear formula offers a customizable finish — from soft glow to ‘high-key beam.’

We say: In a word, these highlighters are “amazing.” With a powerful shimmer payoff, our tester found these pressed-powder formulas were easy to blend for a more diffused, all-day wearable glow. A must try for highlight fans.

Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Hue Drops Sun Glow Serum

They say: A double-duty skincare serum that features a sheer tint to give skin a ‘warm glow’ while skin-boosting ingredients such as niacinamide, hyaluronic acid and watermelon work to brighten and hydrate.

We say: Designed to be a last skincare step, our tester applied this tinted serum overtop of her go-to products. Surprisingly pigmented out of the pump dispenser, she was a bit timid during first application. But her fears were quickly laid to rest. Applied with a damp blending sponge, the serum gave skin a subtle glow and an immediate hit of hydration, whether applied to select areas or all over the face.
