The Christmas season allows for dramatic evening makeup, and a statement highlighter makes skin look lit from within. The festive offering from Chanel is almost too beautiful to use, but if you can bring yourself to sweep a brush through the leaf motif, you'll find a highlighter perfect for paler skin tones. Its silvery hue gives skin an expensive-looking gloss rather than a showy seasonal sparkle. On counters now at €56.
