'Thursday Tittle Tattle', is a Hope, Freedom, Love blog series dedicated to breaking news of the beauty world. From time-to-time, Thursday’s blog post will be dedicated to news. I'll feature beauty and lifestyle news, events, discounts, and even a bit of fashion news thrown in too! It's October, which means we are well and truly into the Autumn swing of things! The beauty world is starting to become saturated Christmas releases and beauty advent calendars! Here are the things that caught my eye this week:
Elizabeth Arden takes inspiration from New York for Christmas Launches
The new Christmas collection from Elizabeth Arden has launched and it’s called the New York Beauty Must-Haves. It’s completely exclusive to Boots and contains; Eight Hour Cream Intensive Daily Moisturiser for Face SPF15, Visible Difference Skin Balancing Exfoliating Cleanser, Ceramide Lash Extending Treatment Mascara in Black and Ceramide Ultra Lipstick in Melon. If you want this set, now is the time to buy it! It’s worth £91, retails at £60, but Boots are currently selling it for £24.50 here.
W7 launches budget Advent Calendar
We’ve had a few Advent Calendars launch recently that are sporting a low price tag and W7 is the latest. It only costs £23.95 but it contains 24 mini products for you to open in the month of December. You’ll be able to buy it at the end of October.
Charlotte Tilbury launches new shades of the Colour Chameleon pencils
The Colour Chameleon eyeshadow pencils from Charlotte Tilbury now come in a whopping thirteen shades, as four more have been added to the collection. The pencils offer intense eye colour, that’s paraben-free and stays in place for up to TEN hours. The new shades are Intoxicating Violet, Gold Digger, Enchanting Indigo and Mesmerising Mink. The shades are limited edition though, so you need to move quickly! If you fancy adding five to your collection, the brand new gift set looks amazing. It retails for £90, which saves you a bit of money off the retail price.
Models Own launch ‘Glitter Gel’

Models Own launch ‘Glitter Gel’
I’m a HUGE fan of the Hyper Gel collection from Models Own, so the news of ‘Glitter Gel’ has me on the edge of my seat. We’re talking sparking glitter polishes suspended in the classic Hyper Gel formula. My personal favourite shade is ‘Starburst’ which is perfect for this time of year. The new range actually launched yesterday with Superdrug, so you can buy them now!
The Real Techniques Deluxe Holiday Set is only £20 at Superdrug
If you're looking for a treat for yourself (or a friend of course) the lovely Real Techniques Deluxe Holiday Set is only £20 at Superdrug right now. Which saves you a whopping £10 off the retail price. Shop the set here.
The Guerlain Christmas collection has me swooning
Guerlain’s Snow & Splendour Christmas Collection doesn’t launch in full until November, but I’m already swooning over it. It’s particulary dangerous as Escentual have a lot of the items and I’m about to place a skincare order! My favourite though is the Meteorites Flocon Enchantés, which is a load of illuminating pearls and little stars hidden under a delicate powder puff.
The Beauty Advent Calendar from Sally
Coming in at £42 we have the Beauty Advent Calendar from Sally. It’s available in Sally stores and at sallyexpress.com. I actually think this one looks like a calendar that is really good value for money. It has 24 doors and it boasts an impressive array of brands including; TIGI, Wella, Schwarzkopf, OPI and Lord & Berry. It retails for £42 here.
Don't forget that Escentual's French Pharmacy Month is BACK
I highlighted this last week, but I wanted to remind you that Escentual's French Pharmacy Month is BACK! At Escentual this month you can save 1/3 off all French Pharmacy skincare. The offer will run until November, so there is plenty of time to stock up! Some of my recent favourites include the AQUAporin ACTIVE Revitalising Eye Cream and the Ole Henriksen Invigorating Night Creme. Click here to shop the full French range.
bareMinerals Christmas launches
I fell in LOVE with the whole Christmas line from bareMinerals last year, so I’m excited to see that they are back again with an impressive line of gifts. They have something for everyone from the Swept Away set, 5-piece mini brush collection to the Starlit Eyes set which gives you everything you need for the starlit eye look for party season. There’s even the Everlasting Enchantment which retails for £80 and has a whopping 22 items inside!
New London Store for KIKO
KIKO have announced that they are opening a brand new London store in Covent Garden! It opened on October 20th and it has hundreds of products spread over two floors. So you can now pick up your cosmetics, skincare, nail polishes and all other beauty accessories in the fancy new store!
