Tom Ford Velvet Orchid Eau de Parfum Spray

Tom Ford Velvet Orchid Eau de Parfum Spray

"Meet my new favorite party fragrance! Tom Ford's iconic Black Orchid scent now has another sister fragrance, Velvet Orchid ($120). The musky-sexy parfum is not subtle — which is why I like it — when you walk into a room, it'll give you some swagger. I find it a bit more powdery than the original or the Soleil version. Notes include orange blossom, hyacinth, jonquil, cattleya leopoldii orchid, suede accord, and vanilla tincture." — Lauren Levinson, senior editor, Beauty

Nars Special Edition Rita Audacious Lipstick

Nars Special Edition Rita Audacious Lipstick

"When it comes to red lipstick, Nars doesn't mess around. In my humble opinion, the Special Edition Rita Audacious Lipstick ($32) is scarlet perfection: it glides on the lips like a buttery face cream, and the color is instant. You really need just one coat to get the perfect red smirk. One thing I like most about it? The bullet glides on effortlessly, so at first it's a bit wet. After a few minutes, though, it dries nicely and has a demimatte finish." — Kirbie Johnson, host and producer, Beauty Junkie and Pretty Unfiltered

MAC Cosmetics Extra Dimension Skinfinish in Soft Frost

MAC Cosmetics Extra Dimension Skinfinish in Soft Frost

"I've been coveting this iridescent highlighter ($33) ever since I spotted it on Instagram a few months ago. The white base is guaranteed to show up on my ultrafair skin, but the violet flash will really make my strobe stand out. I've never been so excited to look like an ice queen — eat your heart out, Elsa!" — Emily Orofino, editor, Beauty

Amika Polished Perfection Straightening Brush

Amika Polished Perfection Straightening Brush

"The Amika Polished Perfection Straightening Brush ($120) has totally changed my hair game. I ordinarily hate styling my hair because it takes a forever to tame my long, wavy locks. However, this morning when I ran the heated brush through my mane, I was amazed that it cut my styling time in half. I love anything that saves me time, and this is definitely a new staple in my hair styling routine." — Sarah Siegel, editorial assistant, trending and viral features

Urban Decay Urban Lash in HBIC Babies

Urban Decay Urban Lash in HBIC Babies

"I can see the eye rolls now, but for me, applying faux lashes saves me time in the morning. I don't have to worry about getting mascara on my eyelids, and they create a perfect lash look without a ton of effort. That's why I went certifiably bonkers when Urban Decay created Urban Lash ($15). This isn't the brand's first foray into faux lashes, but these new offerings have a lot to get excited about: a gorgeous package with a magnetic closure, so it's easy to store and reuse your lashes, thinner lash bands that are super flexible, and 12 new styles. My favorite are the HBIC Babies, one of the individual offerings. They're feathery instead of perfectly groomed, making your lashes appear extra flirty and natural. (And the name is kickass, too.)" — KJ

Belif Moisturizing Bomb Cushion Compact

Belif Moisturizing Bomb Cushion Compact

"Now my Summer bronze has faded, I've been wearing more foundation and BB cushions have been essential for midday touch-ups. This Belif Moisturizing Bomb Cushion Compact ($42) has a great price point, feels dewy on skin, and smells fresh (kind of like eucalyptus). The added bonus of SPF 50 means you won't be without sun protection." — LL

T3 Volumizing Hot Rollers Luxe

T3 Volumizing Hot Rollers Luxe

"Call me clumsy or just unskilled, but even though I'm a beauty editor, I've never really mastered the art of styling with a round brush. However, the look that these hot rollers ($119) produce mean I'll never have to learn. They're just as simple to use (if not easier) than a curling iron, and the finished effect looks like a sophisticated blowout instead of uptight ringlets. Unlike most old-school tools, which come with a pin, these rollers come with clips that won't leave dents in your hair." — EO

Giorgio Armani Beauty Lip Magnet Liquid Lipstick

Giorgio Armani Beauty Lip Magnet Liquid Lipstick

"It seems like every brand has launched a matte liquid lipstick this year, but the Giorgio Armani Beauty Lip Magnet Liquid Lipstick ($38) is not to be overlooked. I'm actually quite picky about this product category. I do not like them to be too dry or too gooey, the formula needs to be just right. What I like about the Giorgio Armani is that it feels smooth and thin. And while it lasts for hours, it doesn't dehydrate my pucker. Plus, the colors are just gorgeous like Rich Berry (pictured). I rock it with a cozy sweater and loads of black mascara." — LL

Orlando Pita Play Strong Bond Split End Sealant

Orlando Pita Play Strong Bond Split End Sealant

"Orlando Pita is considered a god in the beauty world. I met him in 2013 during Victoria's Secret Live, where, by some miracle, I was transformed into a Victoria's Secret Angel. He took my shorter, finer locks, added a pile of extensions, and made me the happiest woman on the planet. His new line, Orlando Pita Play, has a variety of instant beauty classics, but my favorite is the Strong Bond Split End Sealant ($26). It tames the baby hairs at the center of my forehead and adds a little texture while smoothing the ends. (And my clip-in extensions.)" — KJ

Crest White Strips With Light

Crest White Strips With Light

"I am a severe coffee addict. Despite my better judgment, I have no interest in giving up the habit and therefore have to deal with the stained teeth that come with a love of java. I have been using at-home teeth whitening products for years to combat stained teeth, but when I saw the Crest White Strips With Light, ($100 available Nov. 14 on Amazon) I was intrigued. The blue light speeds up the whitening process and after 10 treatments, so users can expect whiter teeth for 36 months. After just a few treatments, I started to get compliments on my pearly whites." — SS

Caudalie Resveratrol Lift Night Infusion Cream

Caudalie Resveratrol Lift Night Infusion Cream

"You could go through years of our monthly must-have posts and see my obsession with Caudalie. The spas are divine, and its products actually work, which means a lot, because its price tag is more on the luxe side. (Seriously, if you have any hyperpigmentation, get the Vinoperfect Serum ASAP.) The Resveratrol Lift Face Lifting Soft Cream ($76) blurs the skin with a pearlized, matte finish, while visibly giving your skin a little 'lift' with the powers of Resveratrol." — KJ

Lush Great Bear Bath Bomb

Lush Great Bear Bath Bomb

"Lush bath bombs have become the ultimate treat for me to relax after a tough week. They always smell great and provide me with the perfect environment to unwind. The limited-edition Lush Great Bear Bath Bomb ($7) is no exception with its woodsy scent, and it goes toward a great cause. For one week, (Nov. 1 to Nov. 9), you can purchase the Bear Bath Bomb and all of the proceeds will go to organizations protecting endangered grizzly bears. Many hunters hunt these endangered animals for sport, killing over 6,000 a year. To learn more about the hunting of these endangered bears you can check out the accompanying Trophy Film." — SS

Essie Ready to Boa

Essie Ready to Boa

"I'm not one to wear red on my hands or feet. I think that's why I love Essie's Ready to Boa ($9) from the Winter 2016 collection. The new six-shade range includes frosts, which pay homage to the mod era and London in the 1960s. Ready to Boa is described by Essie as a 'glistening bronzed mahogany,' so it has a cut of red and an iridescence that changes shades when the light hits it." — KJ

Guerlain Rouge G Intense Shine Lipstick in Rouge Saphir

Guerlain Rouge G Intense Shine Lipstick in Rouge Saphir

"I'm a sucker for gorgeous packaging, so you better believe I felt like the heart eyes emoji when I spotted this luxurious new lipstick ($56). The case features a mirror that opens up once you remove the magnetic cap and is accented by a beautiful cobalt stone. (I confess that I especially love this because my birthstone is sapphire.) Inside is a blue-based red lip color that is infused with ruby powder to give your pout an extra sheen." — EO

Stowaway Cosmetics Dawn to Dusk Palette

Stowaway Cosmetics Dawn to Dusk Palette

"Having a wearable nude eye shadow palette is an essential part of any basic beauty collection, and I've recently added the Stowaway Cosmetics Dawn to Dusk palette ($25) to mine. The tiny credit-card-sized palette comes equipped with eight velvety shades that can enhance your eyes during the day and amplify your look for a night out. On one end it carries four natural shades that are flattering on a spectrum of skin tones. It also carries warmer colors (like navy and dark brown) to achieve a smoldering smoky eye. It's especially lovely because it can be tossed in my purse for touch-ups on the go." — Aimee Simeon, editorial assistant, Social
