This is the perfect time to go all in with glitter, sparkles, bold details and the most extravagant colours you’ve got in your makeup bag.
Colour eyeliners, shimmering eyeshadows, and galactic, electrifying nails will make your Carnival look truly stand out.
Get ready to shine this Carnival with our top product picks to help you enjoy every moment of the festive season!
1. COLOURED EYELINERS
Colour is the easiest way to switch up your look, whether subtly or boldly. Colour eyeliners are a Carnival must-have. You can wear just one or mix several to bring your face to life. We recommend the “electric vibes” pencils by essence – neon shades that are perfect for this festive season.


2. SHIMMERY EYESHADOWS
Shimmer eyeshadows are a fantastic option to highlight your eyes. During Carnival, the rule is: be bold! Our pick? The Mardi Gras palette by W7, full of vibrant shades and shimmering finishes to light up your look. For single shades, check out essence’s highly pigmented, long-lasting metallic and glittery shadows.



3. METALLIC LIPSTICKS
If you're going bold with your eye look, you need a standout lipstick too! Go classic with bold reds or try something fun like blue or metallic tones. The key is to step out of your comfort zone! We recommend essence’s metallic, holographic, and electrifying lipstick range.




4. GLITTER NAILS
To complete your Carnival look, your hands must shine too! Choose bold, vibrant colours and sparkly nail polishes. Our picks? The Glitter On Glitter Off range by essence – super fun and easy to remove!



5. NAIL ART IS A MUST!
Don’t forget to decorate your nails after painting them! We suggest essence nail art stickers and foils to finalise your festive look and make sure you're ready to party.
