Glitter gal
Rihanna's latest Fenty Beauty collection is our idea of the perfect galactic glitter makeup, and this limited edition Cosmic Lip Gloss Glitter in the shade Gal on the Moon is definitely one of our astronomical favourites. W sephora.my
Another stunning galaxy shade we're loving is Monarchy from the Urban Decay Vice Special Effect range. Swipe it over different lipstick bases to achieve customised intergalactic lips! W sephora.my
For a glossy glitter, try M.A.C's Dazzleglass range of bright and light-reflecting colours. This popping pinkish purple Funtabulous shade is as fun and fabulous as its name would suggest. W maccosmetics.com.my
Add a touch of gold glitter to any lipstick base with shu uemura's new glitter mixer. You can even use your finger to dab a little glitter over your eyes to finish your look (protip for multitasking!). W shuuemura.com.my

One of the most raved about "unicorn makeup" products of 2017 is the Farsali Unicorn Essence. Beauty gurus use it as a moisturising serum and primer to give the face a magical glow. W sephora.my
Becca's Liquid Crystal Glow Gloss range comes in a variety of unique colours, but the Amethyst X Geode is the most unicorn-like with its lavender duo-chrome tone and aquamarine shift. W sephora.my
Emerald, sapphire, amethyst and opal – four holographic pastel shades reminiscent of unicorns. Plus, they're all highly pigmented and blend well all over the face, eyes and lips. Enough said. W sephora.my
