NARS' Christmas Collection Is Too Good To Miss
Over three decades later, NARS is still one of the most covetable beauty brands – bringing out products and collections that somehow keep getting better. Christmas is a particularly exciting time for NARS fans, as the brand delivers a mix of bestselling icons and one-off creations presented in the most irresistible packaging. And, dare we say it, NARS’ Christmas 2024 collection might be its best yet…
Taking inspiration from Art Deco and honouring its 30th anniversary, NARS ‘24 Karat Collection is bursting with an array of jaw-dropping palettes, joyous gift sets and crowd-pleasing stocking fillers. We’ve handpicked some of our favourites, although we can’t promise it’ll help you decide what to keep and what to gift…
NARS CHRISTMAS 2024: THE ‘24 KARAT COLLECTION
Nars
Ultimate Luxury Explicit Lipstick Rendezvous, £22.78
The Must-Have Lipstick
If you’re yet to try one of the new Explicit Lipsticks, prepare to be spellbound. They’re rich in colour and have a gorgeous satin matte finish – and most importantly, they’re cushiony-soft and comfortable for long wear. Which is why we’re thrilled about the two limited-edition versions for Christmas. Presented in a golden case, they’re the perfect gift for any lipstick lover or self-confessed NARS enthusiast. We love the burgundy undertones of the shade Rendez-Vous – and if you’re in the mood for a classic red, there’s Nars Ultimate Luxury Explicit Lipstick Unauthorised, £22.78.
Nars
Gold Rush Eyeshadow, £16.75
The Most Festive Eyeshadow
Nothing says ‘party-ready’ like a sprinkle of golden eyeshadow – and this statement yet oh so wearable shade combines high pigment with high shine. Made with ultrafine blends of shimmer, glitter, and light-reflecting pearl powders, it glides on smoothly, is easy to layer and intensify and has great lasting powder for any upcoming soirees. We love it teamed with Nars Climax Mascara, £15.00.
Nars
Pure Luxury Light Reflecting™ Cheek & Eye Palette I, £40.20
The Collector's Item
Behold, palette collectors – this dreamy creation will likely make your heart skip a beat or three. Featuring five shades that can be used on eyelids and cheeks to define, blush, illuminate and sculpt, it’s fair to say it’s as versatile as it is pretty. It’s also designed to last eight hours – perfect for festive night owls. For deeper skin tones and richer hues, there’s Nars Pure Luxury Light Reflecting™ Cheek & Eye Palette II, £40.20.
Nars
Mini Afterglow Lip Shine Set, £26.80
The Party-Ready Lip Glosses
While lip sparkle is definitely for all year round, it feels especially apt during festive season. Enter this adorable mini lip gloss foursome enriched with a nourishing cocktail of jojoba and raspberry seed oil and pomegranate extract. Featuring four bestselling shades (Orgasm, A-Lister, Nympho and Aragón), they deliver a wash of colour and heaps of hydration for up to eight hours. Wear them on their own or over another lip colour for extra sparkle and dimension.
Nars
Climax Eyeliner & Mini Mascara Duo, £16.75
The Timeless Eye Duo
You probably know (and are) a fan of the iconic Climax Mascara, known for delivering thick, full and smudge-resistant lashes. Well, this duo might be the ultimate match made in makeup heaven for those who like a timeless yet dramatic eye look. Define your eyes to perfection with the long-lasting, super pigmented Climax Pencil Eyeliner, and finish off the look with the mini Climax Mascara – a must-have for your desk to disco moments.
Nars
Afterglow Liquid Blush Duo, £26.13
The Lit-From-Within Blushes
Whether it’s liquid or powder formulas, NARS never disappoints when it comes to blushers – and these two full-size liquid beauties will thrill all the blush lovers out there. There’s the bestselling shade Orgasm, a peachy pink hue with a golden shimmer, and newcomer Bubbly, a pretty petal pink – both beautifully hydrating and just the right level of sheer. Let your colour creativity run wild and team them together or layer them underneath your go-to powder blush for the ultimate lit-from-within rush of colour.
Nars
Afterglow Lipstick & Mini Liquid Blush Duo, £23.45
The Matching Lip & Cheek Duo
Love a pop of red for festive season, and a monochrome look? Then this lip and cheek combo, which features an Afterglow Sensual Shine Lipstick and mini Afterglow Liquid Blush in the warm chestnut brown-red shade Aragón, is for you. The lipstick boasts a fuller pout effect thanks to its rich high-shine finish, whilst the blusher complements it to a tee with its radiant colour payoff. As well as making you look instantly put together, they’re both hydrating too – which is why we’ll understand if you also keep this for yourself…
