Get Glam-Ready: Holiday Party Hair & Makeup Trends in Vancouver 2025
Season of galas, company parties, and intimate celebrations — get the looks that will make you camera-ready and unforgettable.
The 2025 Holiday Look: Refined, Radiant, and Ready for Celebration
The end-of-year season calls for looks that balance polish with personality. This year’s trends blend classic silhouettes with luminous, skin-first makeup — and Vancouver’s beauty scene is embracing Old Money elegance, bold metallic accents, and the soft glow of Korean-inspired radiance.
Old Money Glam Revival
Think refined waves, polished side parts, and soft, elegant finishes. This trend favors structure over excess — classic Hollywood, but softer. Low side-swept waves, minimal accessories, and a finish that photographs beautifully under warm event lighting. Perfect for those who want timeless sophistication.
Sleek Bun & Statement Shine
The sleek bun returns — but with a high-shine, editorial twist. Defined parts, sculpted finishes, and glossy eyes or metallic hair pins make this minimalist style powerful. Ideal for strapless or high-neck gowns where the hair becomes the statement accessory.
Velvet Lips & Metallic Eyes
Texture defines evening glam in 2025. Velvet matte lips in rich berries or classic reds meet softly blended metallic lids — bronze, pewter, or gold. One feature takes the spotlight; the rest stays refined and wearable.
Korean-Inspired Radiance (K-Beauty for the Gala)
K-Beauty’s influence continues to shine. Rather than heavy contour, it’s about luminosity and balance:
- Radiant Base: Hydrating prep and luminous, long-wear foundation for “glass skin” that lasts through the night.
- Soft, Sheer Eyes: Muted shimmers and subtle highlights that photograph beautifully.
- Gradient & Glossy Lips: A youthful, modern finish with depth and shine.
- Event-Ready Tweaks: Long-wear primers, waterproof liners, and sprays adapted to Vancouver’s climate.
This aesthetic is graceful yet powerful — ideal for parties, galas, or red-carpet evenings.
Sculpted Volume & Textured Movement
Big hair makes a comeback — not through excess, but through control. Soft, sculpted waves or textured blowouts give movement and dimension, perfect for photos. The result: weightless, touchable glam that lasts all night.
