Even though the holidays are always bustling with gift-shopping, huge family meals and *plenty* of get-togethers, Aloette is always here to help you make time for you. This time, we’re here to help you get ready for the warmth and cheer of the holiday social season, whether it’s a bubbly Friendsgiving, a girls night out, a paint and sip with that special someone or a long-awaited reunion with family. As you get ready for your holiday plans, you may find yourself wondering how matchy-matchy or complementary your makeup look should be.
In celebration of the new Aloette Handy Mani Kit—a manicure kit featuring our first ever nail lacquer, along with two superstar skincare products that exfoliate and moisturize for an always classy manicure—we’re helping you get your look together for the holidays and answering the question that might pop into your head while you’re getting ready: “Should your nails match your makeup?”
It’s a Match: Monochrome Nails & Makeup Look
The monochrome makeup look has made waves in the beauty world this year, with makeup lovers matching nail lacquer shades with eyeshadow, eyeshadow with lipstick, lipstick with bronzer and everything in between. Monochrome makeup lends itself well to a timeless look when used with classic makeup shades like berry or neutral. It can also make for a brilliantly bold makeup look when using an eye-catching shade like metallic gold for eyeliner and nails.
MATCH: Cherry Red Nails & Lips
For the perfect combination of classic and bold, pair your high-shine Beauty by Aloette cherry red nail lacquer with semi-matte Aloette Lip Color in Red Carpet. Perfect for the holidays, this match will bring all the Hallmark movie feels to your winter, especially if you finish it off with a red pea coat and beret for a true wrapped-in-red look.
MATCH: Berry Lips & Tips

Berry is a major trend for all your holiday makeup looks, from morning walks through the holiday market to “wining” down the evening with a dinner show. The Get the Look: Glamorama Bundle has everything you need for a mega-glam moment this holiday season, whether that’s a girls’ night in or a night out on the town. Featuring three shades of Aloette Eyesilk in cream, bronze and plum, a Rose Petal clay pink blush, a Moscato shimmering pink highlighter and a Sorbet glossy berry lipstick, this face, lip and tips bundle helps you create endless sultry and alluring makeup looks. Add on a 10-FREE Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer from our sister brand butter LONDON in Afters, a dark blackberry hue, for a holiday photo-ready finish.
Perfect Pairs: Complementary Nails & Makeup Look
You might prefer to go for a manicure complementary to your makeup rather than matching directly with it. Try these Aloette makeup & nail pairs for buildable glam that’s better together.

Golden Hour features 6 Eyesilk shades, with three matte neutrals and three rosy gold metallic shimmers that truly catch the light. A neutral manicure will help the metallic shades on your lids pop for a dazzling holiday makeup look.
