Orly Beauty x Laverne Cox
What It Is: Laverne Cox debuted a stunning metallic manicure at the Emmy Awards... and it turns out, the beautiful shades are part of her newly announced collaboration with Orly Beauty. The limited edition capsule collection, Celebrate Yourself, contains six different nail lacquers, and retails for $49. As Cox herself said in a press release from the brand, "This collection is about red carpet glamour and giving everyone the opportunity to feel that glamour in their day-to-day lives."

Why You Need It: Come on, don't you want to rock the same colors as a red carpet-ready Laverne Cox? She wore the glittery jet black Androgynie with the sparkly silver Shine at the Emmys, and the other four colors are equally fab. Best of all, Cox has said that proceeds from the collection's sales will go towards Hurricane Harvey and Irma relief.

M.A.C. x Nicki Minaj
What It Is: Nicki Minaj has teamed up with M.A.C. to release a collection of 24 nude lipsticks -- two of which are actually designed by Minaj herself. Perhaps best of all, this lippie collection might just be the harbinger for something even cooler in the M.A.C. x Nicki Minaj future -- because Minaj noted via Instagram that the two lipsticks are a "tease" for something bigger coming in 2018.

Why You Need It: The two Minaj-designed shades, Nicki's Nude, a midtone creamy pink, and The Pinkprint, a soft corally pink, are pretty much a must-have for fans of the rapper. They have special pink casings, and -- drumroll, please -- they're limited edition.

How to Get It: Launched September 21 on maccosmetics.com.

ColourPop x Karen Gonzalez Collection, $69 (total)
Features: Two eye shadow palettes ($18 each), two liquid matte lipsticks ($6 each), a lip gloss ($6) and three lip pencils ($5 each)

What It Is: Karen Gonzalez, or better known as iluvsarahii on Instagram, is teaming up with ColourPop Cosmetics to release her own collection, which features a neutral eye shadow palette, a deep purple/coral palette, burgundy and nude matte lipsticks, a peachy lip gloss and three matching lip pencils (sold separately).

Why You Need It: If you're a true beauty junkie, then you probably have a different parade of products you break out each season. And because there are so many opportunities to be seen in the summer (think: rooftop happy hours, all-day pool parties, romantic beach picnics) Gonzalez just made life 10 times easier by providing two eye shadow palettes that speak to whatever the season brings. Whether you're going for natural, beachy vibes with her neutral eye shadow palette (Chic-y) or are channeling the bold, romantic side of summer with the deep purple/coral palette ($aucey), she's got your summer makeup covered.

And that goes for her new lip products too. Swipe on the matte nude lipstick or peachy gloss for a sexy surfer look, or apply the deep burgundy for your next seaside dinner date.

How to Get It: Launches May 24 on ColourPop.com

What It Is: A must-have summer face palette that features two skin-perfecting highlighters, a luminous blush and a sun-kissed bronzer.

Why You Need It: Chrissy Teigen is pretty much beauty goals all around, so when she teamed up with Becca to release her own face palette, we were elated. If you want to achieve an effortless glow all summer long, then you'll want to snag her face palette ASAP. The limited edition palette features two highlighters that come in the trendy shades apricot gold and rose gold, and the kit also includes a pink coral blush and natural looking bronzer. Each powder contains a subtle shimmer, so you can rock that lit-from-within look every day of the week.

How to Get It: Launched May 5, 2017. The kit is currently sold out on Sephora, but you can still get it on BeccaCosmetics.com

YouTube sensation and beloved beauty vlogger, Laura Lee, has officially made the M.A.C. roster and released her very own lipstick shade on April 20.

Why You Need It: "I wanted to create a shade that you could wear every day," Lee said of the perfect, pale, matte nude. In true M.A.C. fashion, the lipstick is creamy and feels like butter on the lips.
