Our Favorite Beauty Trends For This Holiday Season

The holiday season is upon us, and it’s the perfect time to elevate your beauty game. Whether you’re attending festive parties, family gatherings, or simply spreading some cheer, looking your best is a must. At Avalon Institute, we understand the importance of feeling and looking your best during this magical time of year. That’s why we’ve curated a list of our favorite beauty trends to help you shine bright this holiday season. From sparkling eyes to timeless classics, we’ve got it all covered.
Glitter and Glamour
Nothing says “holiday” quite like glitter and glamour. This year, the trend of incorporating glitter into your makeup is hotter than ever. Glittery eyeshadows, shimmery lip glosses, and even sparkling body sprays are all the rage. Go all out with bold glitter eyeshadows in shades of gold, silver, or even deep jewel tones. For a more subtle approach, opt for glitter eyeliner or a touch of shimmer in your lip color.
Red Lips Never Go Out of Style
The classic red lip is timeless and versatile. It’s a beauty trend that never goes out of style, and it’s a must-try for the holiday season. A bold red lip instantly elevates your look, exuding confidence and elegance. Pair it with a minimalistic eye makeup look for a sophisticated and balanced appearance.
Smokey Eyes with a Twist
Smokey eyes are a staple for any special occasion, but this holiday season, we’re adding a twist. Traditional smokey eyes typically revolve around shades of black and gray, but this year, think beyond the box. Incorporate jewel-toned eyeshadows like emerald green, sapphire blue, or amethyst purple to create a captivating and festive look. Pair your smokey eyes with a nude lip for a well-balanced and dazzling holiday appearance.
Luxurious Lashes
Long, fluttery lashes can make a world of difference in your overall look. This holiday season, experiment with luxurious lashes to emphasize your eyes and achieve a captivating gaze. Faux mink lashes or lash extensions can give you that extra oomph, making your eyes the center of attention.
Glowing Skin
Healthy and radiant skin is always in trend, and it’s the perfect canvas for any holiday look. Achieving that luminous glow doesn’t require heavy makeup. Instead, focus on skincare to prep your skin for the festive season. Regular facials and a dedicated skincare routine can help you achieve a natural glow that enhances your overall beauty.
Play with Color
Don’t be afraid to experiment with colorful makeup this holiday season. Bold and vibrant shades can add an exciting twist to your look. Whether it’s a pop of color on your eyelids or a statement lip, don’t shy away from experimenting. Emerald greens, royal blues, and deep purples are perfect choices for the holiday season.
Nail Art Extravaganza
Your holiday look isn’t complete without some festive nail art. Instead of sticking with plain nail colors, why not opt for intricate and playful designs? Sparkling snowflakes, glittery gradients, and holiday-themed nail art can add that extra charm to your overall appearance.
Hair That Shines
Your hair deserves some holiday attention too! Experiment with different hairstyles and hair colors to achieve a dazzling look. Consider adding some shimmer or sparkle to your hair for a touch of magic. Whether you opt for an elegant updo, loose waves, or a chic braid, your hair can be a significant part of your holiday glam.
Stay on Trend with Metallics
Metallic makeup is a fantastic choice for the holiday season. Gold, silver, and bronze are all stunning options to add that touch of extravagance to your look. You can apply metallic eyeshadow to your eyelids or use metallic lipsticks for a bold statement. To keep things balanced, pair metallic makeup with neutral shades for the rest of your look.
Subtle Highlighting
Glowing skin is always a holiday favorite, but this year, we’re embracing a more subtle approach to highlighting. Instead of the blinding highlighter, opt for a natural and dewy glow. Apply highlighter strategically to the high points of your face for a fresh and youthful appearance. Our makeup artists at Avalon Institute can help you find the perfect highlighter and technique to achieve this look.
