Gift the DIOR Dream

Words by Nasreen Osman


There’s a distinct magic that fills the air as the holiday season approaches. It’s a time of sparkling sequins, ribbon-adorned gifts, and tables set for celebration. It’s also the ideal moment to shift your beauty mood to echo the festivities. Enter Dior Beauty’s Holiday Collection 2024, designed to bring a touch of brilliance to the season – and your face, from shimmering eyeshadows to radiant highlighters that catch the light just so. Prepare to dazzle all season long.

Dior Beauty’s Holiday Collection 2024 draws inspiration from the opulence of grand masquerade balls held in French châteaus—a night of transformation, bold colours, and magic. “This collection brings to mind the audacity and enchantment of these celebrations,” says Peter Philips, creative and image director for Dior Makeup. Highlights include the Rouge Dior Forever Sequin Liquid Lipstick – Limited Edition, delivering a dazzling finish for statement lips; the Dior Forever Couture Luminizer – Limited Edition, a glow-giving highlighter housed in a keepsake embossed, gold-patterned case and the Diorshow 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palettes, where sumptuous burgundies and pearlescent pinks evoke a regal charm. Whether you’re looking to create a beauty look that bestows timeless elegance or are seeking statement make-up that says bold, festive glamour, here we explore three unique ways to wear this limited edition collection.

Holiday Splendid Silver Look

This look is all about radiating a soft, lit-from-within glow accentuated by eyes that sparkle. Begin by prepping your skin with the Prestige La Micro-Huile de Rose Activated Serum for a plump, hydrated base. Then, use the limited edition Diorshow 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette in 863 Soir de Bal to create a subtle glam effect with the cool, celestial tones that range from metallic silver to a soft powdery rose. How to choose between the five shades? Dior UK Pro Make-up Artist Egle Miseikyte recommends matching your make-up to “your style and accessories”, or simply opt for those that make you feel most confident. Onto your lips, apply Rouge Dior Couture Satin Lipstick in 374 Royal Coral for a soft wash of coral with a satin finish. For a radiant finishing touch sweep the Dior Forever Couture Luminizer in 002 Corail Lumière into the inner corners of your eyes and over the high points of your cheekbones for a radiant final touch.

Holiday Daring Red Look

Picture yourself at an evening soirée, where soft candlelight reveals a subtle shimmer on your lids and a luminous glow across your cheeks. The look is understated yet captivating. Begin with your eyes, blending the warm nude and rich matte burgundy shades from the Diorshow 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette in 643 Golden Masquerade. Next, match your lips to your lids using the Dior Addict Shine Lipstick in 704 Divine Plum — housed in a striking couture case — to complement the look with a high-shine, wintery hue. And for that finishing glow? “I love using the Dior Forever Couture Luminizer Highlighter as a colour wash over the lids,” says Miseikyte. Indeed, it’s an effortless way to add shimmer without disturbing matte tones. “The formula is so creamy and luminous, making it beautifully easy to work with.”

Holiday Sparkling Look

Make an unforgettable entrance with a look that is holiday glam and then some. It's vibrant, shimmery and a little bit mischievous. The key for make-up that lasts until long after midnight is to prep correctly. For a smooth, even base, use a creamy, full-coverage concealer such as Dior's Forever Skin Correct Concealer to prep and even out your lids. Next, it's time to unleash your inner make-up artist and create a mesmerising gradient using the light rosy pink and deep burgundy shades in the Diorshow 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette in 643 Golden Masquerade. To complete this show-stopping look, a red lip is essential — and Dior has given it a festive twist with the sensationally shimmery Rouge Dior Forever Sequin Liquid Lipstick in 999. Apply, let it set, then press your lips together to reveal an iridescent finish. “It’s the perfect statement look for the season,” says Miseikyte.
