Brush sets for all skill levels
Great makeup brushes are not just for the pros. Brands like Quo Beauty at Shoppers Drug Mart have made quality makeup tools and brushes widely accessible no matter your budget or skill level, with everything from simple four-piece starter kits to more ample artistry sets. Now is the time to spoil the makeup maven in your life with a fresh new set of cosmetics brushes, guaranteed to brighten the holidays and provide unlimited ways to experiment with colour and technique in the new year.

Expert tip: Make a statement by gifting a gorgeous, limited-edition brush set, only available during the holidays.

Dramatic eyes are the new holiday lip
A bold lip will never go out of style, but this year beauty retailers are seeing heightened interest in eye palettes. From neutral tones to dramatic shades – or the classic smoky eye – these kits have become a seasonal essential by offering an array of colours all in one place to create stunning eye looks. As more people experiment with above-the-mask colour, eye palettes have never been more timely gifts for the beauty lover.

Expert tip: Mix and match trends with combo kits like the Quo Beauty All is Bright eye shadow palette, offering the best of both worlds with luxurious matte and shimmer shades.

Bite-size beauty makes a big impact
Now is a great time to indulge in a dose of merriment with whimsical holiday beauty treats. Who wouldn’t love the surprise of opening up a holiday cracker to reveal a mini lip gloss? Or find that a pretty tree ornament is actually a holiday-themed makeup sponge? Already dressed up, these beauty gifts are as much about the presentation as the product, no wrapping required.

Expert tip: For an added surprise, top any gift with a beauty trinket or use it to replace a conventional gift tag.
