Hailey takes a completely different direction this year in having a liquid copper–gold base. It makes the skin appear as though molten metal has been fused onto it, cool, sharp and sensual. The eye make-up is minimal yet impactful with metallic tones and voluminous lashes. The blush is merged into the highlight, and contour is carved deeply for a statuesque effect. This look is ideal for mature parties, fashion events or upscale occasions, under lighting, the metal sheen becomes an undeniable focal point.

By contrast, Tszyu’s beauty look speaks another festive language which is gentle and restrained energy. Her base is light and skin-like with a clear sheen; the eyes are kept soft with champagne tones and subtle pearl. Also, with the separated lashes that aren’t heavy. Peach milk-tea blush and a glossy rose–mauve lip topped with clear gloss complete the look. This creates an elegant Korean-style make-up. Such looks are especially popular at Christmas gatherings or family parties, striking a balance between natural realism and festive glow.
