2024 Holiday Beauty Trends: Red, Metallic and Glow All reviews are by real people - here, we do not entertain bots or fakes, just raw-and-real user experiences, for more conscious beauty buying!
The holiday season, aka the 'going ALL OUT season,' is upon us, and if you're anything like us, you're already planning your festive outfits and makeup for all those upcoming gatherings. While last year was all about gold and warm hues, 2024 is bringing a fresh new twist. Say goodbye to gold; this time, it's all about metallics and understated, glowy looks. We're totally here for it!
Paint the town red this holiday season with a colour of the season of bold lipstick. Whether you're going for a classic matte or a glossy pop, red lips are the ultimate accessory. Elevate your festive glam and make a statement that's as timeless as it is daring.
I have tried out so many lipsticks that claim that they are long lasting but this is the only one that l’ve found that lasts through the evening, and with food and drink. It’s become my go to for a red lip and the colours are absolutely gorgeous.
I haven't used lipsticks in this consistency for a long time. The lipstick is creamy and fairly soft, smooth to use. The shape is also very well preserved after use. Since one side is higher and the other is lower, it helps to create a nice lip contour and thus avoid using a pencil. So it's great! The brown color is an autumn trend that never stops and is always on top! Highly recommended! #AutumnEssentials
The pigment on these lipsticks is honestly, insane .It goes on creamy, sets matte, and feels completely weightless, non-drying and very comfortable to wear. Not only does it feel good on your lips and last all day, but the new packaging is also super slick, streamlined, and comes in such a range of colours, you'll be spoilt for choice.
I spent a long time researching many different red lipsticks. I was very particular in my searches, I wanted a red lipstick which was non-transfer, a ruby red kind of matte shade, and which didn’t make my lips go dry. I found all three of those qualities in this lipstick. It barely budges when eating and drinking which is amazing. It didn’t go all dry and flaky, it fades evenly so it doesn’t look silly with a big red line round the edge of your lips like some lipsticks do. And it feels so smooth you genuinely don’t know it’s even on. I purchased the shade ‘Dragon Girl’ and it was the perfect shade for me, it makes me feel so sexy and confident when wearing it, it really pops and makes my whole makeup look complete.
I love this lipstick it slides on like a normal lipstick and dries down matte. It lasts for a really long time and is perfect to wear out of you aren’t too keen on the lip kits this is the next step to chose as it is the next best thing with a good range of colours.
This lipstick is so nice to use! Provides a beautiful neutral color and stays in place all day long. I'm a big fan of this lipstick. Been with it for a long time so the price is well worth it too! If you're still looking, definitely buying is my advice.
This is by far my favorite Gucci lipstick! It is a beautiful soft red lipstick that applies smoothly and provides a nice everyday look. It's nurturing and I love the scent that Gucci lipsticks have! These lipsticks come at a price, but it's soooo worth it!
Gucci never disappoints me! Not only does this lipstick have a beautiful color, the packaging is also really cute! The whole experience around it is just great! I also think the lipstick feels very heavy for a lipstick, which also shows me that this is a good quality lipstick. I love the color anyway. Also, the color lasts a long time, even after I had lunch, I didn't have to update it! In the picture above, I'm wearing the product without a lip liner, but I think this lipstick can also be combined very nicely with a lip liner! At least I'm in love with it 😍
This lipstick has a very nice shade of pink red. I think this lipstick is perfect for a natural makeup look. This lipstick lasts a long time and has no strange bad smell. I think this lipstick is really worth the price it is and would definitely recommend it to anyone who is still looking for a good lipstick. I myself use the lipstick with a charlotte tilbury Lipliner and this combination is really perfect.
Super fine lipstick with a nice neutral color. At first glance, it looks bright but when you put it on, it's really soft in color. It keeps my lips nice and soft and can go anywhere! And the packaging is sooooo cool and very stylish. All in all, I'm super happy with it!
This stay like all day long without messing. It didn’t go away easily with water or makeup remover. I like it very much because it’s very lightweight and nice formula. This gives very nice glossy shine on lips after applying. All time favourite lipstick.
Guys!!!!! Run. This one is just perfect for everyone. It's not too intense and this literally stays on your lips all day long. It can easily be put over your lip liner and gives a nice glow and when it dries, it literally stays on all day long, even if I have an entire meal, that lip ink literally stays on. They also have the most beautiful colors. I have already got 3 colors and I definitely plan to get more. This is really my every day lip. So I would say run!
A gloss that never gives up, I tried a lot but this maybelline thing is really fantastic, you can create many beautiful colors by mixing, the durability is crazy, the color is identical, it doesn't smell bad.
Quality and price are there, being a gloss that lasts a long time and does not crack it's worth everything
For me it's 10
I have two shades of this product, I don't know which one I like the most. Before applying the product we must shake so that all the components are mixed inside it. Thanks to its brush, it provides us with precision to be able to apply it in perfect conditions... thanks to its pigmentation, it gives us a shine as if we were wearing vinyl on our lips. It is a durable product, as it lasts for several hours.
I have two shades of this product and I don't know which one I like the most. It provides incredible color to the lips, an irresistible matte shade and durability. Super incredible. Before use, you need to shake it well so that all the components of the product are mixed well. It is easily applied thanks to its brush. And it provides a vinyl effect to your lips. Providing us with full coverage in them. Leaving super beautiful lips with an incredible finish.
Beautiful and long-lasting lipstick. I usually use natural (nude) colors.
I like the feeling it gives, it doesn't make my lips super dry like the usual matte lipsticks, at least on me, it doesn't crack and it's very pleasant. I recommend it to all girls who want to give their lips a twist.
I believe that MAC lipsticks are among the most colorful and of good quality that can be found on the market. They have so many textures and are soft on the lips. They hold well and are hydrating. They cost a bit but they last over time. Great.
I absolutely adore the range of colours, love the ease of application. It lasts all day and smells fabulous too! I would highly recommend it to anyone. A trusted favourite. Another winner from MAC. I purchased in the black Friday sale as I find their products a bit out of my price range. That's a me problem though, I don't think they're overpriced.
Love this shade I have nearly all of them they are made so good for favorite brand for makeup so delicate made really good and strong I will
Always buy Mac makeup love these lipsticks the blue is a good shade I’ve never worn blue lipstick and it’s great my second favorite after this one :)
I think I’ve honestly bought this like 5 times and it lasts so so long. Genuinely the holy grail in my makeup kit - I don’t go anywhere without it
Unlike other lipsticks it doesn’t go dry and crumbly and actually feels hydrating. Full coverage too so one layer is enough to fill in over lined lips!
10/10 - will wear this at my funeral
Silver is stealing the spotlight in beauty, fashion, accessories, and more right now, thanks to the ongoing revival of Y2K trends. The futuristic, metallic shade is making a major comeback and these are the recommendations from our We Are Eves members.
Oh my God, this Kiko eye shadow is so nice I would definitely recommend this one. I've never loved eye shadow, but this one just gives you a very nice subtle glitter that lasts a long time. I would really recommend this one 100%, it's really my favorite I never wear shadow, but I really love this one.
Really a fantastic eye shadow. Most eyeshadow shades are powdery and fade quickly. I don't know how Kiko Milano does it but the pigments in the eyeshadow are beautiful, intense and non-standard. Super rich in color. I ordered the golden hue and it stays in place all day long and shines beautifully. It does not become dull like it is the case with many eye shadows.
I've now also tried out the 107 plum lip marker and I'm in love with it too. They are not standard shades. The quality and colors are high and last for a long time. How much better do you want it to be?
Very nice color that brings out the color in my eyes. The texture is very pleasant.
#bestmakeup2021very fine Eyeshadow, both dry and wet to use for extra pigment. Already own several colours and I love using them
Very nice shimer! Apply color finely
Gives a very nice shine. The glitters are really nice. I have the white version. I always do it on my nose and in the corner of my eye. Just make sure you don't spread it in places you don't want it. It also stays in place for a long time. I would buy it again.
the ultimate multitaskers! These creamy, shimmery shades can be used as eyeliner, eyeshadow, or a base to make other shadows pop. Smooth application, easy blending, and that gorgeous glow we all love. Perfect for brightening the inner corner or adding a touch of shimmer to any look! ✨
I use this NYX Jumbo eye pen as a base to make my eyeshadow stand out even more. it's highly pigmented so you don't have to use much for the colour to show. It's also very blendable to, not much blending is needed.
This is very long wearing and doesn't crease or pile. It contains mineral oil and has a matte and powdery finish
The only thing to be aware of is because of how thick it is, you'll need a large sharpener to sharpen it. Yes it has a plastic coating but it's fine to sharpen it with a make-up sharpener.
#NovemberFaves
i adore the performance of this product and find that it really heightens your beauty!! i love the application and think it’s a great product for people who are less confident with makeup and learning how to do their makeup!! i cant recommend this enough
I have the jumbo eye pencil in the color 'milk'. This is a white color. I mainly use it in the corners of the eyes and under the eyelid for an expressive look. The pencil lasts a very long time and also gives off a lot of pigment. I would definitely buy it again when it runs out but it's far from it! I've been using it every day for 4 months now and have never had to sharpen it!
I am absolutely obsessed with drip drip!! I’m normally a gold girly! However I seen the rave about drip drip so I bought it and honestly I think I’ve been converted! This takes a Smokey eye to the next level!!!!! Can’t express how buzzing I am that I bought this product. Is buildable so can use it as a little sparkle or more intense like I did! Obsessed!!!
Amazing but I’ve tan out it’s great for not needing a primer and for that alone I love it it you can make it an every day look or you can make it a more dolled up look I can’t wait to buy more from Mitchell I highly recommend everything from made by Mitchell
This is the most versatile shimmer around - Highlighter, Eyeshadow, lip-gloss whatever you want it to be! I like to either use the brush it comes with, add some onto my hand and use it with a brush or my finger OR rub a brush against it's wand, You can dab and swipe to get any effect you're looking for. It's super pigmented and easy to use.
I tried this after seeing it all over tik tok, it works very well as a topper over eyeshadow to give a more shimmery gorgeous look! So far it's the only thing I've tried from this brand but I can definitely recommend it 😀 if u want a gorgeous eye look then I would definitely go for this!
There’s no question as to why this is one of Mitchell’s best selling products this is perfect for a soft glam or a dramatic glam look. Depending on how it’s used the pay off can be different. I recommend if using this to use a small fluffy blending brush to get that natural sparkly look, this stops it from becoming chunky and too much.
Glow up your holiday look with the perfect highlighter. Whether you're after a subtle radiance or a full-on glow, this little magic wand adds the finishing touch. Illuminate your features, catch the festive lights, and shine bright all night.

Can you write me a review similar to this one, but not the same? Benefit's Dandelion blush is an iconic product that manages to combine delicacy and luminosity in a single gesture. Presented in a compact package with mirror and brush included, it stands out for its practicality, ideal for both daily makeup and on-the-go retouching.
Dandelion's shade is a soft and fresh pink, perfect for those looking for a natural 'bonne mine' effect. It is not a particularly pigmented blush, but this makes it perfect for fair complexions or for those who want a light and adjustable result. It blurs easily on the skin, without leaving stains, and gives a radiant effect without being excessively shimmer.
A strong point is its durability: despite being a light powder, it lasts for several hours without the need for frequent retouching. In addition, it has a delicate and pleasant fragrance, almost imperceptible once applied

Sure! Here's an alternative review, similar in style but with different phrases and constructions:
Benefit's Dandelion blush is one of those products that are able to conquer with their simplicity and elegance. Enclosed in a practical box equipped with a mirror and brush, it is designed for those who want an ally to always carry with them, perfect for quick retouching during the day.
Its color is a light and delicate pink, ideal for obtaining a healthy and naturally luminous appearance. It is not excessively pigmented, which allows it to be layered as desired and easily adapted to even the lightest skin. It is applied evenly and blends effortlessly, leaving a velvety and luminous finish, never too shiny.
One of its best qualities is its hold: despite the light texture, it remains visible for hours, maintaining a fresh and well-groomed appearance. It also has a discreet and pleasant scent, which disappears once spread, making it even more pleasant to use on a daily basis.
Girls, you have to try the new Crystah Blush from the Benefit Bronzer & Blush collection! 💖 It has me obsessed. The Strawberry Pink shade is a beautiful strawberry pink that leaves the cheeks with that healthy, juicy and luminous blush that seems natural but super flattering. 🍓🌟
What surprised me the most is how light and silky it feels on the skin. It blurs super easily, leaves no patches and you can modulate the intensity depending on the look you're looking for — from something subtle for the day, to a more pronounced glow for the night. ✨💫
In addition, it is resistant to sweat and moisture (approved even on hot days or photo sessions under spotlights!). And the shiny touch it leaves thanks to the microparticles of pearl and synthetic sapphire... simply WOW. ✨
Bonus: the new box is more compact and environmentally friendly ♻️, and although it doesn't come with a brush, with the Benefit Multitasking Cheek Brush it can be applied beautifully.
In short: incredible smell, beautiful color, glow finish and top durability. Have you tried it yet?

As all Benefit brand products never disappoint, it has an adequate pigmentation and the tone is super beautiful, at home we have used it all the girls and it lasts a long time, you can't put any buts on it, so we totally recommend it

It's a beautiful blush and the color is very nice especially for this time of year in summer. You don't have to take a lot of product really because it has very good pigmentation and that really is a plus point because that means it will last you a long time. I highly recommend it, it's beautiful, hard and good pigmentation
Subtle, yet unmistakable... this product gives you that irresistible healthy glow that benefits every woman. Lasts for a long time, dose as you wish... you can also mix it with foundation or day cream. And last but not least, the luxurious packaging, that just really makes you happy!
Wow! I love it!
I don't like very bling bling in your face shine, this one is beautiful, very natural. It has just right amount of shine. I feel like I have nothing on my face. It has also a lot in it, could use it for a whole year for sure.love the design too
I really like Gucci's illuminating highlighter! It has many uses; you can use it as a stand-alone product to glow your entire face (combined with your day cream, for example), you can apply it through your foundation (or your foundation over it), but it is also very nice to use as a highlighter!
I tried it first without foundation, I don't like wearing foundation. It gave my face a nice glow, but it remains subtle, a very nice look! In addition, I also tested it as a highlighter, which also gives a beautiful effect. It is easy to spread and the color is also very nice.
The product is easy to apply through the pipette and it also hydrates. I think the packaging looks really chic, that's also a plus! All in all, I definitely recommend this product and would buy it again myself.
The Gucci beauty illuminateur provides a beautiful glow to your face. I really love the look of the product!
You can use the illuminateur drops if you already have makeup on, but also without makeup. I don't wear makeup much in the summer, so I've often used it without foundation.
It has a golden tint. It's not too noticeable but it has a natural glow on my skin. He has no smell.
I am happy with the product.
For the effect it gives, I think it is a bit expensive, but I would recommend it.
A very nice product. Especially before the summer months.
I always wear less makeup in the summer because I already have color on my face. But I always like a nice glow.
I was very skeptical about using it because I use few liquid products except foundation and concealer.
But after testing this product, I am convinced. A super nice shine over your foundation but also a super nice glow for the summer.
I highly recommend it!
The glow wand is a super natural highlighter. It blends easily and gives a natural finish. The different colors are all beautiful on the skin. It is a shame that if you squeeze the tube once, it is only half full. The applicator also captures quite a lot of bacteria, so I would recommend removing it after a while.
After years of being on my wish list, I was finally able to add it to my makeup stash. I have a lot of high lighters and think this is an absolute addition to any beauty routine. So the reason I haven't purchased this product before is because I already have so much lying around and I was afraid it would disappoint. After buying a few dupes, I received this great product as a gift & I was immediately sold. The shine and the application are really worth 5 stars. The product is a real upgrade to your beauty routine. To anyone who is unsure: absolutely do it!
Do you want to create a beautiful glow on your cheeks? Then look no further, but buy the Charlotte tilbury beauty wall in Spotlight. You don't look like a disco ball, but the effect is actually very smooth and blends beautifully with your skin. In the picture, I'm wearing the Beauty Light Wand - New! Disney 100 Edition Pink underneath. It comes in a great package that you can open and close, so it won't smear.

This product is hands down the best highlighter I have ever used!! I have very sensitive skin and was perfectly fine with my skin, caused no reactions! This gives the most beautiful glow and is perfect for a glowy makeup! This product also lasts a while.
I am so happy with this Charlotte Tilbury highlighter! After thinking about this purchase for a long time, I bought it and I do not regret it at all. Of course, it is quite expensive, but this highlighter is really worth the money. I've had it for a year now and haven't even run out. That's because you really only need a little bit. Recommended!
Looking to stay fleeky all day and night? Setting spray!
Aaaaand lastly, seal the deal with a setting spray that keeps your holiday glam intact. Dance, laugh, and celebrate without worrying about touch-ups. Spritz on some setting spray for a flawless finish that lasts through all your 'going ALL OUT' moments.
Really a top thing! I bought it 2 years ago and it just sold out early this year! I think it works very well, it makes my makeup last very good and long and gives me a good natural glow. It is on the more expensive side, but I think it is definitely worth my money.
I've been using the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray for a few months now, and I'm really happy with how well it works. My makeup lasts much longer than usual, even on busy school days or when I'm on the road for a long time. What I like is that it doesn't feel sticky and that your skin still looks natural. You don't feel tight and your makeup doesn't melt off your face after a few hours, which often happens with other sprays. The setting spray doesn't smell either, so that's really nice. So highly recommended!
I bought this setting spray a year ago. I use it almost every day and it still hasn't run out. Sometimes I dare to go to sleep with my makeup when I don't feel like taking it off. Even then, the next morning, it looks like I've done my makeup again. I would definitely recommend it to everyone, even if it is a bit on the more expensive side.
A very solid setting spray for those looking for a natural demi-matte finish and long-lasting makeup. Definitely recommended for oily, combination or normal skin types. Go contractors for beginners: start with before and after makeup spray and use a fine mist. Recommended with 8/10 - provided you buy from reliable stores!
Fantastic!! Bought this setting spray last week and really excited. I was able to go out with it for a whole night and my makeup was still beautiful! Really happy with it. In addition, the setting spray also smells good! So win win situation 🥰
The fragrance of the product leaves a bit to be desired, it smells a bit 'wet'. But nothing to say about the performance; it's among the best setting sprays I've ever tried! The make-up stays there all day long, even with high temperatures or humidity. It mixes the powders well and gives a truly natural effect to the base.
As a makeup artist, I love this product because I use it during makeup in several phases and in addition to hydrating the skin when applied, it makes the makeup last a long time. It's the best for me and for my customers, I buy it in pairs!!
This product is a great multi use! I use it obviously to set my make up when I’m wearing a heavier look. I also mix with eyeshadow to create a custom liner. But my fave thing about this product is it keeps the skin cooler, so when the weather is hot I spray my arms and chest to help keep me feeling cooler
I love this setting spray. It's actually more of a mist and it nicely and silently mists over your skin without you needing to brace yourself from a harsh splash. It's light and melts my makeup into my skin and makes it last ALL DAY. I do my makeup at 6AM and get home at 12 AM and my face hasn't moved. And no need for blotting!
this is one of those products i don’t know how i ever lived without. i like to set both my cream and powder products with this setting spray separately and i find this creates an overall seamless blend. all-nighter is the most accurate name of all time too, i have never had my makeup give up before i wash it off after using this product.
This setting spray ensures that my makeup stays in place all day long. The mist is just right: neither too much nor too wet. As a result, my makeup does not run off and everything stays neatly in place without melting. Perfect for the price!
This is the best setting spray! The spray comes at a good price. I wear it in the morning and it's still good at the end of the day and even in the evening! It doesn't irritate my skin. It dries quickly and you don't feel like you have an extra layer on your face.
Settingspray stays in place very well. A very good and nice setting spray for very little money. I'm not going to spend money on expensive settings sprays anymore, now I have a good setting spray for little money. Recommended! Makeup doesn't fly away anymore, the makeup is still on after a whole day.
Such a great setting spray! It makes my makeup last all day without drying out my skin!! The mist is so fine, and it even smells nice! It’s easy to use and super affordable! Not only this, but elf is cruelty free, so it’s a win win! Would 100% recommend!
This. I have 0 Words. This hands down is one of the best drug store setting sprays i’ve ever used and keeps my makeup locked in place for HOURSS. I have even walked in the rain for 45 minutes and my makeup did not budge an inch and it’s so affordable for the price and just is such a good value for the money
NYX's Matte Finish is the best setting spray I've ever used among those I've bought. It is perfect for everyday use, keeps your makeup intact all day long. At the same time, it works very well even with more complete makeup, ensuring a long life and a natural matte finish.
Love this fixer! I use it daily after all the skincare and makeup, and the makeup lasts perfect all day long. In addition, it smells good and does not release very fat droplets, which prevents patches on the makeup. In short, my favorite fixative.
Great spray, makeup stays on for a long time, ideal for an oily/combination skin type. Falcoon also sprays nicely, even from a long distance, feels nice and comfortable on the house without being heavy or sticky. Does not contain any animal ingredients and has not been tested on animals
I absolutely adore this product! The hold is amazing and i can stay with my makeup on for hours, maybe even days haha! Matte makeup stays matte and glowy makeup stays glowy, i mean what more could you ask for!? It doesn’t leave any residue which is perfect for me and should be for you too!
I sprayed this product on for the first time the morning before my competition after my entire makeup routine and WOW!! My makeup really stayed in place, even with all the anxiety, sweat I had to endure. When I got home, my makeup was still exactly the same as I left and I was still completely matte!! So top product!!
I've tried many fix sprays but I'll stick to this classic one. I am very sensitive to allergies but I even like this spray as a refresher.
However, I do think that with the old spray cap, you quickly get splashes on your face, and you should blow it dry quickly, otherwise it will remain visible on your makeup.
The MAC Fix+ Setting Spray is a must-have for makeup enthusiasts. It not only provides a fresh, hydrating boost to the skin, but also helps to set makeup for a long time. The spray has a fine mist that applies evenly without leaving any drops. It gives a natural glow and can be used both before and after applying makeup. Ideal for a radiant look that lasts all day long!
This setting spray is absolutely amazing.. I use it to start before I use my primer, once I’ve finished applying all liquid products and then finally after doing my whole face.
I was so used to having to top up my concealer, powder and bronzer multiple times a day but then once I started using this I was able to improve the longevity of my makeup. Even being able to go from 8.30 am in the morning, throughout work and then through a night out.
I would highly recommend
The best setting spray I’ve ever used. Leaves such a good finishing look with the glow. Doesn’t make your face to wet and keeps your makeup perfect through any day. Would never go back to any setting spray this ticks all the boxes definitely worth the money
I have been using Fix+ every day for yeaaars! Nothing sets my makeup better than this product whether I’m going for a very natural or glam look. The mist is so fine and it binds everything together so well, the makeup looks like skin. And it lasts all day even in extreme conditions.
