 The annual November chill wreaks havoc on all things: your hair, boots, skin, clothes and attitude in general.
After all, no one likes nights that roll in at 4 pm — and no one likes torrential downpours that equate frizz and frazzle.
I suppose the two bright spots in November are Thanksgiving long weekends and the excuse to really start jotting down a wish list of things you wouldn’t mind finding under your tree for the holidays.
Here is a little wish list of top five beauty products that will keep you pretty right into the New Year and will make it a very happy holiday, indeed.

 It’s nice to know that in an industry focused on facade and outer beauty, there is still an emphasis on creating inner beauty through charity.
October was Breast Cancer Awareness month, a time during which many of beauty’s biggest brands — from Lancome to Estee Lauder to YSL to Too Faced to Shiseido — launch special edition products to raise funds for breast cancer research and to go along with that signature pink ribbon.
Other beauty brands are socio-economically conscious, too, working with organizations and high-profile figures to better the greater good of man, health and the environment.

 Say the word “tiger” and I’ll think of three things: Siegfried & Roy, Frosted Flakes and William Blakes’ famous poem, aptly named “The Tiger”.
Olivia Chantecaille of Chantecaille Cosmetics is getting on the striped beast’s bandwagon, releasing a limited-edition makeup collection based on the majestic creature — the Bengal bronzer is beautifully laser-etched with an image of a royal Bengal tiger.
 You have probably seen a lot of pink ribbons around since last Wednesday hit, and that’s because October is Breast Cancer Awareness (BCA) month.
Fashion brands and cosmetics companies rally annually to raise money and public profile of the disease, conceptualizing products or participating in collaborations wrapped in swaths of pink hues and then donating part or all proceeds to the research of breast cancer.
