New Year’s Eve has always been beauty’s most permissive right, a rare window where restraint is optional and indulgence is practically a dress code for the night. Glitter isn’t just welcome, it’s expected, colour is dialed up, and the line between polished and playful is blurred in the most deliberate ways. This year’s standout looks favour light, pigment, and graphic precision.
Whether you’re ushering in the new year on a crowded dance floor, at a softly lit house party, or sprawled out on a sofa with friends and a bottle of champagne, these looks understand the power of impact. A sharp liner, a saturated lash, a glint of sparkle placed just so - each one speaks for itself. Even better, they’re all created using our Glisten favourites: bold, dependable staples made for your creativity, no compromises required.

This look is electric. A wash of luminous green paired with soft structure and glossy skin. It’s playful without being chaotic, futuristic without feeling cold. The green liner detail brings energy to the eyes, while the flushed cheeks keeps it grounded and wearable!

Clean lines meet dreamy colour in this pastel graphic moment. The split liner creates definition without heaviness, making it ideal for anyone who wants something artistic but still effortless. It’s the kind of look that photographs beautifully under fairy lights.

This looks leans into sweetness and shimmer. Soft pink tones, fluttery lashes, and a hint of sparkle make it feel romantic and nostalgic, like glitter lip gloss and disco lights at midnight.

If New Year’s Eve is about drama, this is it. Multi-dimensional chroma fliks catch the light from every angle, shifting and glowing as you move. It’s expressive, editorial , and surprisingly quick to apply. Proof that impact doesn't have to mean complexity.

A modern take on a classic pink. Sharp liner shapes and rich pigment turn a timeless colour into something fresh and graphic. It’s confident, clean, and unmistakably powerful. The kind of makeup that feels like a declaration.

@poppyellah
This look leans fully into celestial drama: otherworldly, luminous, and bold. Metallic gold and smoky graphite tones sculpt the eyes into something almost cosmic, while flashes of Medusa and Galactic Chroma Flik catch the light like stardust beneath the lower lash line.
Soft blush and crystal accents add a touch of decadence, balancing the intensity with a sense of glamour rather than excess. It’s the kind of makeup made for midnight that is theatrical yet refined, and perfect for ringing in the new year feeling luminous, powerful, and slightly untouchable!
