Halloween hasn’t even happened yet, but some of your favorite beauty brands have already released their holiday 2022 products. Start layering up — and get ready to make those wishlists.

Glossier and Soft Services launched cozy-scented products (think notes of cocoa, cedar, cinnamon, and vanilla) to get you in the winter mood; Saie partnered with Reformation to create a limited-edition highlighter; and ORLY and Lisa Frank came out with dreamy ’90s-inspired nail stickers and polishes to put a more colorful spin on celebrating the holidays this year.

Don’t worry if you want to live in the moment and enjoy as much of Halloweekend as you can: Kylie Jenner turned to her favorite superhero Batman and launched a limited-edition Batman collection full of dark and moody eyeshadow and liners — just in the nick of time if you’re still on the hunt and looking for any last-minute costume ideas. Plus, Paris Hilton teamed up with Urban Decay to join the Metaverse to throw a super sick virtual Halloween party.

Those are just a few highlights of all the exciting newness that just came out. For more, read on to find out which new skin care, hair, and makeup releases you should keep on your radar.
