Whenever it’s time to talk about the holidays, I can only focus on the amazing makeup looks that I see all over social media and the streets of New York. Sure, the bright lights, festive events, and glamorous outfits are nice, but all I want this season is a guidebook of beauty inspo that I can use for the holidays and beyond. Luckily, the beauty experts in my network can give you and me exactly what we’re looking for. I enlisted fellow editor Katie Berohn and digital creators Tabitha Qassom and Tamara Marbury to create makeup looks worth copying and pasting onto your mood boards for the rest of 2023 and beyond—and they certainly delivered.
They each created a makeup look that taps into the beauty trends we spotted this year, and every product they used is from Sephora at Kohl’s. (No surprise there.) It has an elite curation of all your favorite beauty brands—plus a “clean beauty” category and the ability to filter skincare products by age—so all the best products are at your fingertips. I’ve been taking notes on these looks, and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to share them with you all. Keep scrolling for the makeup looks you’ll be re-creating in 2024.
“I’m probably one of those rare people who wear a red lip almost every single day. But I typically keep the rest of my everyday makeup simple. My advice for wearing a glam look beyond the holidays would be to pick your favorite part of your holiday look, whether that’s a bold lip or glittery eye shadow, and make that the focal point of your everyday looks. If you opt for one focal point and keep the rest of your look more subdued, you can transition any holiday look easily. I would wear this to a holiday party, but I would also wear it to dinner with friends, a family gathering, or a work event. It’s versatile but still perfect for a special occasion. Sephora at Kohl’s has the most-coveted makeup products at truly unbeatable prices.”
“I started with the Makeup by Mario Ethereal Eyes palette. After creating a smoky eye by building the deeper matte shades to the outer corners of my eyes, I drew a subtle cat eye using the Too Faced liner. I opted to use two different mascaras for the most dramatic effect. I used Tower 28 mascara on my upper lashes for length and curl. For my lower lashes, I just wanted a bit of length, so I used Ilia Limitless Lash mascara to add subtle definition. I added a dot of Rare Beauty blush to the upper part of my cheeks and blended it in for a flush of color. Then, I used Charlotte Tilbury lipstick to create a bold, showstopping red lip. I love how festive it is while still being versatile.”
“I live in SoCal and am always by the beach, so that sun-kissed look is what I tend to gravitate toward throughout the year. During the holidays, I do like to add an even darker blush for that extra pop! I love that all the products I’m wearing fall under Sephora at Kohl’s clean-beauty list and that so many of the pieces are interchangeable and can be used year-round. Quick tip for all my ladies on the go: When you’re in a pinch and only have either a blush or lip color on you, use it on your lids and lips. Don’t shy away from color on your lips year-round! Have fun with your look regardless of the occasion—you won’t be this young tomorrow!”
“I always start by prepping my skin with a moisturizer or oil. With the cooler weather, my skin has been extra dry, so I’ve been loving Tatcha’s Dewy Skin Cream. It instantly smoothes fine lines while hydrating and plumping my skin. While the moisturizer sets into my skin, I apply the holy grail of eyebrow gel, Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze. My brows are pretty unruly, and this is the only gel I’ve found that will keep them in place. It has thousands of five-star reviews for good reason! For the ultimate glow, I go in with Saie’s Glowy Super Gel. They make a universal shade that I love, but when I want to be extra bronze, I use the shade Sunglow. It’s a lightweight luminizer that you can wear alone or mix with foundation or tinted moisturizer. There isn’t one person I’ve told to try this that hasn’t fallen in love.
“Next up is Ilia’s skin tint. This lightweight mineral serum has SPF 40 and is clinically proven to improve the look of dryness and blemishes while giving your skin a dewy finish. I then go in with Tower 28’s Bronzino in West Coast, which I love to add to my cheekbones, jawline, forehead, and nose for an illuminating glow. I follow up with Merit’s cream blush, which provides just a touch of color and a long-lasting glow. Finally, I apply Merit’s lipstick, which gives my lips the ultimate hydration and soft satin finish.”
“I like my everyday makeup to look naturally flawless, so I do a lot of neutral or deep tones. This holiday season, I want to elevate that look with metallic colors that complement my skin tone. It’s still giving flawless nude tones that I love for my everyday look but with a bit of sparkle and glam. I would wear this look to a holiday party, gala, or formal event in the new year. Sephora at Kohl’s is my go-to destination for my makeup looks because I can easily filter by product type and get a curated list that has just what I need. It has the best of the best products, so I feel confident when I head to checkout.”
“The Huda Beauty Empowered eye shadow palette was made for a glam look. It has so many metallic colors to create a sparkly eye. If you want to create a winged eye, you need the Stila Stay All Day waterproof liquid eyeliner. I drew one of my wings a little too low, and it was easy to immediately wipe off and start again. But once I had drawn it perfectly, it stayed in place. The Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara tops off the dramatic eye. Nars blush in Savage is perfect for this glam look because it has a slight metallic sparkle, so it doubles as a blush and highlighter. Then, because you’ve got sparkle on the eyes and cheeks, you need the Charlotte Tilbury nude lip in Super Fabulous so that your lip doesn’t compete with the eye. Top the nude lip off with the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Honey Waffles just to add a little shine.”
