We’re back, and this time we’re going for something a little more dramatic! Watch me and the expert Charlotte (@makeupbycharlt) re-create the stunning Givenchy Christmas look. Using the limited-edition 2025 collection, we’ve created a look that’s sophisticated, bold and glam.
Seeing these shades in action, especially that unexpected navy liner, really shows how versatile this collection is. Here’s how you can re-create this soft-glam holiday look at home.

💡 Tip
Charlotte recommends keeping a clean concealer brush handy when working with darker eyeshadows. If you get any "fall out" on your foundation, a quick sweep with concealer cleans up the lines and keeps the look sharp.
1. The Eyes: Sultry Sparkle
The GIVENCHY Le 9 Eyeshadow Palette (Christmas Edition) is the star of this show. With its mix of neutrals, bronzes, and high-shine glitters, it’s a palette you can truly use all year round.
The Base: Charlotte started with the taupe shade mixed with a hint of bronze to create a "subtle, soft, expensive base." This creates depth without being too heavy.
The "Pop": To make the eyes really pop, apply the sparkly top row shades to the centre of the lid. As I said in the video, "more is more" when it comes to Christmas!
The Finishing Touch: Use the bluey-navy shade as a liner along the lash line. Blending this out with a fluffy brush creates a smoky, soft edge that is far more flattering than a harsh black liquid liner.
2. The Complexion: Luminous & Blurred
To achieve that flawless, "lit-from-within" holiday skin, we turned to Givenchy’s iconic powders.
GIVENCHY Prisme Libre Loose Setting Powder: We used the lilac-toned Christmas edition. Lilac is incredible for neutralising dullness and brightening the skin.
The Finish: Not only does it mattify, but it softens the entire look. Charlotte applied this to the centre of the face to blur imperfections while keeping the natural glow on the cheekbones.
The Glow: We topped it off with the Prisme Libre Loose Powder Highlighter (17 Limited Edition). This picks up the sparkle from the eyes and ties the whole look together.

3. The Lips: The Blushing Tulle
I’ll admit, I usually stick to nudes, but the Le Rouge Velvet Matte Lipstick in 09 Blushing Tulle changed my mind!
The Shade: It’s a sophisticated, muted berry-pink that complements the bronze tones of the eyes perfectly.
The Application: Even though it’s a matte formula, it feels velvety and comfortable. It’s the perfect balance for when you want both your eyes and lips to stand out without competing.
