We’re seriously impressed with this year’s selection of Christmas gifts but none more so than the NARS Holiday Collection available at John Lewis.
If you’re a makeup fiend, or know someone who is and want to get them something extra special this year then listen up! The new Holiday collection is without a doubt the most beautiful we’ve ever seen.
Featuring a curated selection of gifts, bold colours, opulent textures and re-imagined favourites with extra-special gold packaging, NARS has really turned up the glamour for 2024 and we’re here for it.
The spotlight shines on the Explicit Lipstick, housed in a dazzling limited-edition golden case. Available in two exclusive shades – Rendez-Vous and Unauthorised, this lipstick offers more than just a pop of colour. It’s designed for long-lasting wear with a satin finish that feels comfortable.
But, we’re just getting started as one that beauty expert Emma North has her eyes on is the limited-edition Pure Luxury Light Reflecting Palette. In both light-medium and medium-deep, this gold compact contains 5 multi-purpose, light-reflecting powders to give a lit-from-within look.
‘The NARS Holiday Collection is the highlight of this season’s beauty offerings,’ she says. ‘I’m putting the Light Reflecting Palette straight onto my wishlist – it’s so incredibly beautiful and versatile.’
Another incredible option? The Mini Afterglow Lip Shine Set. Each swipe offers reflective shine, a subtle hint of colour and a boost of hydration. With a formula enriched with jojoba oil, pomegranate extract and raspberry seed oil, these four shades leave your lips soft and nourished.
Seeing your loved one unwrap a gift they truly love brings a whole new level of joy on Christmas Day but knowing exactly what that gift is, is where it gets tricky. So, why not turn to a beauty brand that never disappoints?
Below are our top-picks from the new NARS Holiday Collection but, if you want to see what else is on offer, check out the whole collection at John Lewis & Partners now.
Ultimate Luxury Explicit Lipstick
Unauthorised is a bright, festive red ideal for party season and makes a great lippie for New Year’s Eve celebrations. It’s comfortable to wear and the gold packaging is to die for.
Light Reflecting Prismatic Setting Powder
Traditional setting powders can be chalky or drying, but not this one. Containing tiny, light-reflecting particles in a soft champagne hue, it leaves a soft sheen on the skin which adds radiance to flat, dull skin.
Mini Afterglow Lip Shine Set
A gloss to suit every occasion, this cute set would make an excellent gift for those who love to get glammed up. Packaged in a luxe gold box, this set is ready to be the star under any Christmas tree.
Light Reflecting Cheek & Eye Palette
Available in two colourways, this palette is a catch-all for a more luminous complexion. Dusted over cheeks or eyes, it brings radiance and colour with a natural skin-like finish. They’ll love opening this one come December.
Climax Eyeliner & Mini Mascara Duo
Any makeup bag isn’t complete without a brilliant eyeliner and mascara, that’s why we love this set. Great for enhancing your eyes and extending lashes, these two products make the perfect Christmas gift.
Everyone deserves a little NARS this Christmas – yourself included.
