Zoeva Is Selling A £12 Festive Palette & The Colours Are A Christmas Party Miracle

by Rebecca Fearn

It's getting to that exact point when the mid-month slump officially hits. You can barely remember last payday, and the next one seems unfairly far away and out of reach. If you're feeling a little miserable, buying yourself a little beauty treat can be the perfect pick-me-up — and it won't break the bank. These new beauty products, including Zoeva's Christmas palette, will do the job nicely.

From skincare to makeup, this week is definitely not short of exciting new launches. My favourite ethical, clean body care company Soap Co. has a brand new range, which is as irresistible as ever, while industry giant Paula's Choice just launched a brand new moisturiser that'll protect skin from pollution, flood the complexion with antioxidants, and make you glow like never before.

Makeup-wise, there's a lot to make your eyeshadow pop. Marc Jacobs has a Christmassy range of single glitter eyeshadows, and Zoeva's purse-friendly six shadow palette is beautiful as well as affordable. And if you need something to apply all this with, it might be time to pre-order makeup artist Jillian Dempsey's genius new makeup brush, which is versatile and effective.
