by Victoria Vallecorse

Published Oct 19, 2020

Halloween (like pretty much everything in 2020) is going to be much different this year. While you might not be able to gather in person with your crew to ring in the spooky season, you can still celebrate with your favorite people…just a little farther apart than usual.

This year, send your friends a sweet gift to boost morale—call it trick or (beauty) treat. Here are my product picks based on zodiac signs, featuring new product drops from Danessa Myricks, Natasha Denona, Givenchy, and more.

Capricorn:

If you have a Capricorn ride or die, you’re familiar with their fiercely ambitious personality. To be real, Capricorns are doing the most and they always manage to stay chic while they make moves. Treat the successful sea goat to Viseart’s Moisture Boost Lip Shine, which drenches skin in a wash of hardworking botanical oils with a finish that shines almost as bright as their first place medals.

Formulated with marine collagen and mustard sprout extract, this berry-hued gloss defines lips for a plump pout.
