I love all the opportunities to get dressed up and bring on the glamour over the holidays. This morning on Fox 2 News with Dan Gray, I talked about some lovely makeup for the holidays and a new jewelry line that’s about to launch in December and an exclusive opportunity to win a pair of the earrings before the line is even available for purchase. Below is video of the interview; and read on for more details on the products and how to win the earrings…
Chic Glamour from Chanel
Chanel National Makeup Artist Marcus Monson recommends these highly covetable new treats from Chanel:
- New CHANEL Le Lion De Chanel Illuminating Powder & Rouge Coco Gloss in Liquid Bronze
- The lion embossed on the powder is in honor of the birth sign (Leo) of Coco Chanel.
- Marcus says, “the Illuminator gives a beautiful glow to the skin, perfect for any night time holiday soirée or just to add a glow for the day if your feeling like you need a little pick me up.”
- He says the gloss from the holiday collection is a “beautiful bronze gold that gives you the perfect party pout alone or over any lipstick.”
Clean & Colorful Glamour from Jane Iredale
The Limited Edition Let’s Party Eye Shadow Kit ($59, janeiredale.com) is great for vibrant, playful looks and can also be used for more subtle, elegant eye makeup looks for the holiday season. It can be created in two simple steps.
- First, apply Spree from your lash line to your brow bone with Deluxe Shader Brush ($26, janeiredale.com).
- Then, use the Angle Liner/Brow Brush ($17, janeiredale.com) to smudge Soiree (yup, the blue shade) into lashline, and you’re ready to party the night away!
“We’re seeing a lot of purple shades for the eyes, subtle smokey eyes in purple hues can dress up any holiday wardrobe.” – Natalie Soto, jane iredale Global Educator/MUA

Affordable Clean Beauty Glimmer from NanaCoco
Nanacoco Professional is an innovative cruelty-free cosmetic line offering luxurious quality at an affordable price. Matching the ever-changing beauty trends for the everyday working professional, inspiring everyone to be the best version of him or herself. The name says it all – Nana represents someone who is carefree, loving, and isn’t afraid to push boundaries, while Coco is the movement towards diversity, innovation and trendiness. See below for a monochromatic look using highly pigmented shimmer products.
- First, apply the Shimmertallics Metallic Lip Gloss in Frosted Glaze ($8.50, nanacocoinc.com) from the center of the upper lip with the sponge applicator. Drag the applicator to the corners of the lips. Apply to the bottom lip from one corner to the other. To make the lip gloss last longer, keep it off your teeth, and prevent from bleeding, press your lips together gently with a tissue between your lips and then release.
- Then, dip a damp fluffy eyeshadow brush into the Glitzn Face & Body Pigment in Platinum ($7.50, nanacocoinc.com). Lightly tap the brush to remove any excess. Use the brush to pat the glitter onto your closed lid until the pigment has settled into place. To brush off fall out, use a large fan brush to sweep extra pigment off of undesired areas.
“There’s nothing like a multifunctional product that creates the perfect monochromatic and romantic makeup look using the same tone on eyes and lips.” – Rudy Miles, BeautyByRudy /Nanacoco
