The best beauty launches hitting shelves this December

Do we really need to tell you anything beyond the fact that these lipsticks are embossed with classic Disney characters? We hope not; that's a fairly convincing fact. However, it is worth noting that these three shades (which are matte but still super creamy, FYI) are a top notch trio to have up your sleeve for upcoming events.

We highly advise stocking up on these teeth-whitening strips now that summer has kicked in; you never know when a gathering will pop up, and we like our smiles to be prepared. With fast results, no gum irritation or tooth sensitivity, they're the surefire solution for getting those pearly whites, well, pearly and white.

Searching for a sunny season signature scent? This one is literally inspired by the sun; why even consider other options?! It's a fruity but full-bodied mix of peach, coconut, mandarin and sandalwood, so it's absolutely ideal for either day or night.

We'd buy anything from Fenty at this point (they've never done us wrong), but these mini foundations they've just dropped are obviously must-haves for the December/Jan period. Pop your shade in your purse and you've got the guarantee of flawless foundation/easy as pie touch-ups everywhere you go.

With all the Chrissy ham/cocktails/general frivolity we'll be enjoying this month, an illuminating, purifying treatment is at the top of our 'to buy' lists. This silky mousse-textured mask knocks the brightening brief out of the park, and it's bound to get you glowing for days regardless of what occurred the evenings prior.

Everything should be a bit fancier for the holidays if you ask us, and these fun fuchsia eye masks no doubt understood the assignment. Serum-soaked patches loaded with aloe leaf, peptides and amino acids, they'll get your eye area back on track on the dire days that concealer and caffeine can't carry the under-eye shadow load all themselves.

$52 at Sephora

Nothing zaps the moisture from your face like a few big (and/or) late nights, so we recommend adding a particularly powerful hydrating cream to cart this time of year. This luxuriously rich hyaluronic acid, shea butter and seaweed concoction will take your face from depleted to dewy pronto; just what the dehydration doctor ordered.
