12 Beauty Products (Almost) Too Beautiful To Use


Sometimes, it truly is what’s on the outside that counts. Sure, a simple bottle of foundation will get the job done, but there’s something so enticing about an abstract product laced in vibrant coral tones and chic-as-hell packaging. If your top shelf is looking a little lackluster, then it may be time to grab something a little shiny to keep things exciting.

 

Below, check out some of the products that put a glimmer into—and some of them, onto—our eyes.

 

Flesh Limited Edition Flesh Envy Eyeshadow Palette

 

 

From inside-out, this eyeshadow palette is gleaming with chunks of glitter. GIve your eyes a little sparkle with the toned-down nudes, or create a mesmerising celestial #MOTD with the saturated jewel tones.

 

Show Beauty Swarovski Crystallised Pure Treatment Oil

 

 

On the outside: a golden-hued bottle, topped with a cap draped in 800 Swarovski crystals. But with the bottle is a nourishing elixir that contains the secret to great hair: argan oil.

 

MAC Cosmetics Patrick Starr Dazzleglass in Slay Ride

 

 

Treat your lips to some 24-karat magic with this blinding gold-colored gloss.

 

Smith & Cult Darjeeling Darling Nail Polish

 

 

If Wes Anderson ditched film to become a beauty Creative Director, this would be his masterpiece: an eye-catching monochromatic emerald green, encased within a heavyweight glass and metallic casing.

 

Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Glam Palette

 

For the nudist who needs a little more sparkle in their life, grab this velvet-encased eyeshadow palette.

 

Pat McGrath Labs BlitzTrance Lipstick in Flesh Fatale

 

Create the ultimate glitter lip in one step with this shimmer-infused lipstick. There’s a whopping six iridescent shades to choose from, all protected in a fitting sparkle case.

 

Artis Elite Mirror Brush Set

 

 

These brushes are the secret weapon of every beauty guru for their flawless application, and their sleek chrome finish that we just can’t stop staring at.

 

Farmacy Honey Potion Renewing Antioxidant Hydration Mask

 

 

Aesthetically pleasing isn’t reserved for glitter-infused products only: this rustic-themed pot of hydrating honey mask is both charming, and easy on the eyes.

 

Too Faced Glow Job Glitter Peel Off Mask

 

Literally “glow up” by using this luminous peel-off mask, which is of course infused with real gold.

 

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit – Volume 4

 

Inside this metallic-pink palette lies a treasure of marbled goodies: a glowing bronzer, two blushes, and three light-reflecting highlighters.  

 

Tatcha Kyoto Red Lipstick

 

As if we needed another reason to stock up on red lipstick, Tatcha crafted their now-signature geometrically shaped Kyoto red lipstick, encased in a regal Japanese-inspired casing of black and gold.

 

Briogeo Rose Quartz Crystal Energy Comb

 

Forget face rollers, because this rose quartz brush will give your mental state (and your hair) the same positive energy with every stroke through your tangled tresses.
