Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Mini Lipstick Charms$60
These little things are so tiny and cute, you’ll fall in love at first sight.

I know there’s not actually all that much lippie in these, but they’re so adorable and it’s a good way of testing the shades without having to spring for a full size.

This set contains concealer, contour and shimmer highlighter, and is curated by skin tone.
