Here’s to some much-needed pampering time just before the crazy holiday season hits, amiright?
This past weekend, I took myself over to the Sephora inside JCPenney in the Manhattan Mall — and can you say best sponsor ever? I treated myself to a free 15-minute mini makeover (something you can get too, just walk in and ask — especially right before your next holiday party, hint), picked up some brilliant makeup tips (turns out a dark accent shade on your outer-lid crease looks awesome if you draw a Pac Man and I know completely understand the joy of shimmer stick), and overall, just had the best time perusing the shelves with my two girls, making up beauty wishlists in our minds from among all the hot new products.
GIVEAWAY ALERT! Enter to win one of two $250 gift cards to Sephora inside JCPenney.
See below for details. (It’s easy!)
Turns out, if there’s one word that defines the hot holiday beauty trends right now, it’s shimmer. Or maybe glitter. Possibly sparkle. In some cases, glimmer.
Okay, so there are lots of words.
Also, lots of amazing beauty products that give you just a little more shine, a little more glow, so your outside can match your inside.
Take a look at some of the picks on my own beauty wishlist, and start getting excited for holiday party season!
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Match Stix Shimmer Skinstick ($25)
This cult-favorite beauty product is such a winner. And I looooove the Starstruck shade that Michelle (from the Sephora inside JCPenney at Manhattan Mall) is applying on me here. Love. Love. Love. So much so, I actually now own my own. It’s amazing just above your cheekbone for subtle contouring, or swipe it over your eyes for a subtle shimmer alone or over shadow. Plus it lasts, and as someone who totally forgets to re-apply throughout the day, I’m grateful for the small favor.
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Match Stix by the Dozen ($129)
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Match Stix Trio ($54)
Can’t choose from among all the gorgeous Match Stix shades? Don’t bother! You can get one spectacular beauty gift in this set of a dozen above, that also happens to be a phenomenal value. Or go for the Trio and you’ll have three shades to play with. Tip: if you get the trio shade called “Light 100”, it comes with my beloved Starstruck Match Stix.
Sephora Collection Enchanted Sky Palette Collection ($10)
A glimmering gift doesn’t have to cost you the moon and stars. For just $10, I think this lovely little palette makes a great gift for all your office pals, a perfect Secret Santa gift, or as a stocking stuffer for your makeup-crazy teen. In fact, the Sephora Collection products at Sephora inside JCPenney are all fabulously priced and I definitely appreciate that.
Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Frosted Metal Lipstick Trio ($36)
Okay Rihanna, stop it with the amazing gotta-have-its already. I am swooning over this frosted trio of metal lipsticks in one of two limited edition sets. Extra fine pearlized pigments smoothe easily over your lips, and the result is a sophisticated sheen. You can choose between warmer Snow Daze colors seen here, or the cooler Snow Nights colors that include a magical midnight blue.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Sultry Eye Shadow Palette ($45)
Turns out the brow queen of Beverly Hills does a beautiful job with lids, too. This 14-color palette comes is in a gorgeous, glittering box making it feel like a little gift you get to open every single day (or night). It holds a 14-shade smokey eye palette ranging from Rose Quartz, to a golden Steampunk, to a silvery Cyborg, with lovely matte shades mixed in.
-Don’t forget to enter to win one of two $250 gift cards to Sephora inside JCPenney.
Details below! –
Tweezerman Pro Curl Eyelash Curler in Gold ($22)
I bought this fabulous Tweezerman lash curler from Sephora inside JCPenney earlier this year and it’s become a favorite beauty essential. I can definitely use a little help in the lash department these days and I always trust Tweezerman products, which come with a lifetime replacement guarantee. Plus, I just love how the gold curler looks just sitting on my dresser. Great wishlist item if you want something a little shiny — but a little practical too.
Huda Beauty The New Nude Shadow Palette ($65)
I knew Huda Beauty’s New Nude palette has been blowing up the beauty blogs, and now that I’ve seen it in person, I totally get it. The shades are a little creamy, giving them some stay, but they go on lightly and smoothly. And wow, those colors! Michelle has much darker skin than I do and you can see how “nude” colors like these look radiant on anyone. (Because we all know by now that “nude” doesn’t mean pale pink, right?)
Huda Beauty Collection Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette in Gemstone ($27)
Another great value, this affordable, purse-size palette of gemstone colors is such a treat! It’s the kind of beauty gift that’s edgy enough that you might not buy it for yourself — but would totally add to a wishlist, hoping someone gets it for you. (Hint hint.)
Urban Decay Naked Cherry Eye Shadow Palette ($49)
I am obsessed with this packaging and yes, I’m a sucker for gorgeous presentation when it comes to gifts. But the inside is just as appealing, with a dozen velvety shades of metallic “cherries,” each with sexy names like Devilish, Drunk Dial, Caution, and Privacy. (Like, get a room, Urban Decay!)
Make Up Forever Glitter Dust Set ($39)
If you ever needed an excuse to get a sitter for the night and dust off the dress that shows off your collarbone or shoulders, this would be it. It includes two Star Lit Powders that give you a kind of luminescent shimmer, plus two very reflective Star Lit Glitters for a far more far more dramatic effect. In fact, go ahead and give this to a lucky woman with a coupon for a date night or a girls’ night out. Perfect.
Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Liner ($18)
While all the shades of this liquid liner rock (yep, went there), I just can’t resist this gorgeous Spandex color. If David Bowie were a shade of eyeliner, I think it would be this one.
Sephora Collection #MOOD False Lash Vault ($60)
Talk about a pick for my own beauty wishlist…whoa. Like I said, I am not shying away for asking for help in the eyelash department, and I’d get tons of it with this fun falsies gift set. While the lashes don’t sparkle, I bet anyone wearing these will.
Isn’t beauty so fun?

I’m not getting any younger and my crows feet are in FULL effect these days. I think I’d go for a lux moisturizer, like the Perricone MD Essential Fx Acyl-Glutathione Smoothing & Brightening Under-Eye Cream. Then I’d layer on all the fancy products that you shared including some glam from that lash set!
Some of my favorite products from Sephora are the value sets. I love that you can try a bunch of new products without having to spend the cost of full sized products. I’ve done mascara sets, skin care sets and more lip sets than I can count. This year I’m planning to do some face masks. I’ve been eyeing Peter Thomas Roth sets.
Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara to really make my holiday looks pop!
I would use the gift card to buy a foreo Luna facial cleansing brush because it seems that no matter what I use to clean my face, I always find more makeup to wash off in the morning! Also a new set of makeup brushes would be fun to spoil myself with.
I need a new set of brushes, because my kids keep stealing mine or some Kat Von Dee tattoo eyeliner!
I love tarte makeup and esp that the foundation has a lower EWG score
Drunk elephant “the littles” is one of the items saved on my Sephora “love” list.
I think the mini lip potions set or the Philosophy candy cane shower gel would be a great gift for my coworker! For me an affordable eyeshadow palette would be a good way to step out of my shades-of-brown comfort zone.
I want to try the Fenty Beauty lipsticks. I’ve heard they last allllllll day. Like, alllllll day. Mama needs that.
I have eyes that eat eye makeup; it all ends up in the eye crease – I blame the make up not age, that’s completely rational right?
so, Md Perricone’s no makeup eye makeup, or Bobbi Brown’s Intensive skin serum concealer are huge hits in my world, and my go tos at Sephora. I prep with them, and makeup stays put, yay glitter! plus they have age addressing ingredients, just in case I’m wrong on the cause.
Two things: DOLCE&GABBANA Pour Femme Rollerball to slip in your clutch, because it’s sessy and sultry and never goes out of style. And theSurratt Beauty Prismatique Eyes in “Scandal Eyes” for the ultimate smokiness.
Surratt Beauty Prismatique Eyes in “Scandal Eyes” for next-level smokiness and DOLCE&GABBANA Pour Femme Rollerball to drop in your clutch for sultry-scented goodness on the go.
Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb is the BOMB! It goes on easy, looks amazing with any skin tone and is hydrating. Plus it doesn’t leave behind that weird matte residue that forms with other glosses. Must have!
I’d like some hair help this holiday season, so the Drybar Glitter Gang gift set is going on my wishlist. Volume and sparkle for the new year!
Clinique Happy Cologne
Can I choose all the things?! Between myself and my makeup obsessed 16 year old we would love it all! If I had to choose probably the debt and urban decay for me and flasies for her. There’s SO many amazing products on this list especially the eye pallets. They have amazing pigment and go on so smooth!
Too Faced Natural Eyes
Hi cool moms I would totally buy my two daughters the sultry pallettes because the colors can go from day to night! I would also buy them the stila eyeshadow glitters I have two and they are amazing!?
I love the packaging on the Pretty Vulgar Early Bird eyeshadow palette. I would love to they it.
I’d go for SEPHORA COLLECTION Retractable Waterproof Eyeliner in matte moss— I’ve been feeling that dark green color for the season, and it would be great to express it with makeup!
I would love to get my hands on the BENEFIT Party Nights gift set. Is it bad that my pick was filed under “gifts for teens?”
Beauty Blender. There’s no substitute!
I need new makeup brushes that don’t leave hairs all over my face and I’ve been wanting to try the false lashes!
I didn’t know they have fragrances! I lovee Euphoria by Calvin Klein.
I am so in love with Urban Decay Eden Eye Primer. My eyeshadow stays on perfectly all day into the night. Plus the Eden version has anti aging magic so you are helping your eyes while wearing makeup. I want to buy it for all of my friends.
I need all the Fenty ??
The Fresh brown sugar body exfoliant! I’m not much of a make up wearer, but I love my body products!
I’d love the Dr Dennis Gross Dew Holiday skincare set for myself and snag some Tatcha Liminatikn Hydration sheet masks to treat my girlfriends for the holidays.
I would get some Nars Audacious lipstick because it is the absolute BEST and such a decadent treat!!
I would love a new beauty balm. I don’t wear a ton of makeup, I like one or two steps to a flawless face!
I’ve never actually purchased from sephora, although my daughter loves it. I don’t usually spend that much on myself. But I’d love to try one of the deva curl hair sets, or get the makeover you mentioned and see what products they suggest.
I’d get the tatcha primer and new brushes – fenty’s look great!
NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil In cruella.
So hard to choose! My makeup brushes are not in the best shape so thinking I might like this: https://m.jcpenney.com/p/sephora-collection-deluxe-antibacterial-brush-set/pp5005142252?pTmplType=sephora&catId=cat1005210063&deptId=dept2845050842&urlState=/g/view-all-makeup-brushes-applicators/N-1b1vba2Dgmh51r&productGridView=medium
The Sunday Riley oils are on my Christmas wish list.
I could use NARS Natural Radiant Longwear Foundation because I am trying to “clean-up” my makeup and begin integrating more natural (yet, high-quality and effective) products.

I would buy my daughter a set of makeup brushes. And try out the IT cosmetics for myself.
I would love the T3 Singlepass Luxe Professional Straightening And Styling Iron! I have crazy, thick, curly hair and I am always looking for ways to tame it!

I would get Fenty match stix if I won the gift card.
Rainforest of the sea water foundation…need all the help I can get to hide the dark circles and overall exhaustion all over my face 🙂 Momming isn’t easy but I wouldn’t trade one minute..
Tarte lights, camera, mascara for sure!
Love the Too Faced Gingerbread Spice Eye Shadow palette
I would like the Ciaté London Snow Globe Collective: Nail Polish Set because I love the sparkle and the colors.

I’d go for Sunday Riley multivitamins set and the Tarte Party Prep set. I like taking good care of my skin.
My beauty wishlist has Bare Minerals foundation on it. I love the feel of the Bare Minerals foundation instead of a liquid foundation. It feels light, but still gives coverage, without the heavy feeling of the liquid foundation.
The Diorshow Maximizer Lash Plumping Serum is on my wish list because it really helps maximize my sparse lashes and makes them look long and full.

The tarte Pineapple Of My Eye Collector’s Set is perfect for my daughter. She loves eyeshadow products and pineapples!
It’s a toss up between the Tarte Pineapple of Eye set and the Milk Makeup Meet the Fam. Tarte because it’s on the more natural side and I could let my tween play around with it. She’s at the age where what’s mine is hers LOL and I’d love her to be able to get used to using quality products that are good for her skin. And the Milk set because hy fun!
I love the Stila Lip glosses and always stock up when they have the gift sets during the holidays. It’s always a gift from me to me!
The little make-up I do have could use a major upgrade! The ILIA Essential Shadow Palette Prima would be a great start!
https://www.jcpenney.com/p/cinema-secrets-ultimate-foundation-5-in-1-pro-palette-/pp5006151935?pTmplType=sephora&catId=cat1005180009&deptId=dept2845050842&urlState=/g/face-sets/N-1b1vba2Dgmghux&productGridView=medium

Giorgio Armani Acqua Di Gio Pour Homme is a great product – stood next to a handsome gentleman while waiting for a ride and learned that this is the product that he was wearing – such a great memory!
Sephora has a brow powder in brown that I use all the time. I would get that! Also my cousin loves to wear unique lip colors so I would look for a lip set with all the colors of the rainbow!
My sister in-law swears by the Clinique Fresh Pressed Daily Booster with Pure 10% Vitamin C the most of all products.
I would love to purchase the Herbivore Jasmine Glowing hydration oil. It is one of the most luxurious and definitely the most hydrating skin products I have ever used. Plus the scent is subtle. I’d also splurge on a set of Wander Beauty Baggge Gold Eye Masks because this tired Mama could definitely need some help getting rid of the dark circles. Finally I’d love to try Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Diamond Bomb All Over Diamond Veil. Who doesn’t want to shine bright like a diamond?!
I love all the fragrances offered at Sephora. I would love to have a bottle of Michael Kors Wanderlust. So nice.

I’d like to add the Dior Lip Glow in Holographic Pink and Holographic Purple for those who suffer from dry lips but wants a little sparkle too. I can use it over my favorite lipstick!
Something I’m surprised you didn’t mention/cover was eyebrows! But…it looks like you have really nice eyebrows, so perhaps it slipped your mind?
Anyway, Benefit’s Magical Brow Stars! Blockbuster Brow Set is on my list this year. I tried to buy it last year, but it was recalled…and I’m so happy to see it’s back and available! In this holiday set, you get two brow pencils, brow powder, and brow gel…ALL FULL SIZED…plus a brow pencil to boot!!! It’s something close to a $160 value for $59…which makes it a steal and worth buying two if a person uses Benefit’s brow products on a daily basis. All in all, you can’t beat this deal with a stick!

Thanks for the comment Michelle! I stuck with glitter and glimmer for this roundup but I love all things brows — and you’ll see some in our upcoming holiday gift guide (hint). Actually I discovered GimmeBrow from Sephora Inside JCPenney and now I can’t live without it. – Liz https://www.jcpenney.com/p/benefit-cosmetics-gimme-brow-brow-volumizing-tinted-fiber-gel/ppr5007715233

One product not featured here is the Perricone MD 2-ounce High Potency Amine Complex Facelift. I recently tried it and it makes a huge difference in fine lines. I do want to add that I have never tried Fenty and I love the colors, thanks for showing it in your list.

I would go for the gift set of mini Laura Mercier eyeshadow sticks- just the right amount of shimmer and super easy (and fast!) to blend!
I would love some of the Urban Decay eye lid primer and a couple of the Naked Pallets. Ive never treated myself to them, but I have borrowed my daughters and love them.
I’d get the fenty stunna lip paint for sure. My daughters would love it!

How awesome is the #MOOD lash vault!! It looks amazing & would be so fun to experiment with!
I need new foundation so I’d love to try out Lancome Teint Idole Ultra Long Wear! I’m also drooling over the skincare available, & especially want to try the Biossance Squalane + Glycolic Renewal Facial, and Dr. Brandt Skincare Power Dose Vitamin C serum!
