If you were to crown one iconic beauty brand the queen of the holiday season, it might just be Gucci Beauty – and the starry world that surrounds it. Boasting sensual seduction in a luscious stick, day or night, Gucci Beauty’s limited-edition Rouge à Lèvres Mat lipsticks – in three vivid shades – are your new best friends this Christmas. Forget stolen kisses under the mistletoe, and fall in love with the long-lasting lipstick’s creamy matte texture – formed with gelling waxes and hard-to-miss-pigments – popping colour, and an enviable velveteen finish.

What’s more? The elegant Rouge à Lèvres Mat packaging has had a luminous makeover. Now, an eye-catching pattern and a geometric rendition of the famed ‘G’ logo decorate its lid, in shades of teal and red, to capture the wishes and wonder of the holiday season. Next, to contour the face, reach for the limited-edition Poudre de Beauté Éclat Soleil for a warming, luminous glow. Conjured as a treasured keepsake, housed in a festive gold-trimmed compact, look no further for the ultimate Christmas gift.

Gucci Limited-Edition Rouge à Lèvres Mat Lipsticks RRP £37 and Gucci Limited-Edition Poudre de Beauté Éclat Soleil RRP £47, available at Harrods.
