Our Must-Have Picks from the Quo Holiday Collection

Ready to build your holiday beauty arsenal with Quo Beauty? Here are our top recommendations that are perfect for gifting or keeping.
For a Show-Stopping Gaze: The Must-Have Eyeshadow Palette
Every iconic holiday look starts with the eyes. The Quo Holiday Eyeshadow Palette is a masterpiece of versatility, featuring a stunning variety of shades that effortlessly transition your look from a day at the office to a night on the dance floor. This year’s palette offers a curated selection of captivating matte and dazzling metallic hues, allowing you to create everything from a subtle shimmer to a dramatic smoky eye.
- Pro Tip: Use a fluffy brush to apply a neutral matte shade as your base, then pack a metallic shadow onto the lid with your fingertip for an intense, foiled effect.
For a Festive Flush: The Radiant Cheek & Blush Set
Nothing says “holiday cheer” like a healthy, rosy glow. Instantly brighten your complexion with a set of beautifully blendable blushes. The Quo Sweet Cheeks Blush Set (or similar seasonal offering) typically includes gorgeous blush duos or trios, each housed in its own compact. This makes them perfect for breaking up into multiple gifts, stuffing stockings, or simply keeping in your purse for on-the-go touch-ups.
For Mistletoe-Ready Lips: The Ultimate Lip Gloss Vault
Get ready to pucker up! A cherished New Year’s Eve tradition is sharing a kiss with someone special at midnight. Ensure your lips are irresistibly kissable with the Quo Pucker Up Lip Gloss Set. This fan-favourite set features an array of deluxe mini lip glosses in elegant pinks, festive reds, and shimmering nudes. The non-sticky, comfortable formula is perfect for wearing alone or layering over your favourite lipstick.
For Flawless Application: The Essential Holiday Brush Set
The secret to professional-looking makeup isn’t just the product—it’s the tools. Elevate your entire routine with the Quo Cosmic Brush Set (or this year’s equivalent). These limited-edition sets feature high-quality synthetic brushes with stylish handles, often accompanied by a chic bag that’s spacious enough to store your new tools and other makeup essentials. It’s the gift that keeps on giving with every flawless application.
For a Perfect Canvas: The Blending Sponge Blockbuster
A seamless base is non-negotiable. Makeup sponges have become a staple for achieving an airbrushed finish, and the Quo Blending Blockbuster set is an incredible value. Often including a dozen of Quo’s top-selling blending sponges, it’s an ideal gift for any makeup lover. You can also find individual holiday-themed sponges, which make for the perfect stocking stuffer.
How to Create Your Signature Holiday Look
Now that you have your new treasures, it’s time to unleash your creativity! Here’s a simple guide to crafting a dazzling festive look using the Quo Holiday Collection.
- Create a Smooth Canvas: Start with your favourite primer and foundation. Use a dampened Quo blending sponge to press and bounce the product into your skin for a flawless, streak-free finish.
- Define Your Eyes: Begin with a neutral matte shade from the eyeshadow palette across your entire lid. Deepen the crease with a darker matte shade, then press a brilliant metallic shadow onto the center of the lid for a pop of light. Finish with liner and mascara.
- Add a Healthy Glow: Smile and swirl a brush from your new set into one of the blush duos. Lightly sweep the colour onto the apples of your cheeks, blending upwards towards your temples for a natural, lifted effect.
- Perfect Your Pout: Choose a lip gloss from the set that complements your eye look. A classic red or a shimmering nude are always winning choices for the holidays.
- Lock It In: To ensure your masterpiece lasts through dinner, dancing, and holiday cheer, finish with a light mist of setting spray.
