Every year, companies like Too Faced, Benefit, Urban Decay and more, like to come out with holiday-themed releases or packaging. Ulta and Sephora carry most of these limited edition products, whether it be a Christmas themed palette or a value set of products listed at a little less than the market price.

Too Faced is well known for releasing 18 shade palettes that smell like sweet treats, such as their chocolate palette that was incredibly popular when it was first released. Now, they have the gingerbread spice palette which features some neutral shades matched with a highly pigmented and foiled gold shade along with a bright pink and orange. This gives you the flexibility to turn a day look into a night look with a single palette. Plus, the palette smells like gingerbread as the name suggests. They’ve also paired this with their gingerbread scented melted matte lipstick in a gorgeous brown shade. This is one of the best holiday makeup products!
This year, Smashbox has released quite a few products for the holiday season under the same theme. They have released a liquid lipstick set, priming set, contour and highlight palette, lipstick set, brush collection, and a pack of eyeliners. Their packaging is completely gold with designs of colorful and psychedelic patterns. One product worth noting among these is the lip mattifier that comes along with the regular lipstick set. The lip mattifier has a slight silicone texture to it like their primer does but mattifies any shimmery or glossy color into completely matte.
