No, we're not ready for anything to do with Christmas yet either, but as usual, the beauty brands are one-step-ahead. This October sees the launch of many a festive gift set, as well as a brand new fragrance from Molton Brown and a patisserie-inspired collection from Rose & Co. Take a look below to shop the best beauty buys of the month:

Steamcream
If you're as big a fan of the Steamcream tins as we are, you'll be pleased to hear that the brand has teamed up with artist, Lisa Milroy, to launch their annual design competition. Milroy has kicked things off by creating two unique tins herself - the buttons and the bow. Enter at <a href="http://www.steamcream.co.uk/">steamcream.co.uk</a> until 9 November for your chance to create your tin.
