Titled, 'We Can't Stop,' it reads, "This season, wearing [sophisticated yet playful makeup](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/four-essential-sets) is a celebration in itself." By the looks of it, that statement can't be denied. From [colorful smokey eyes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-xmas-wonder-advent) to rainbow sparkles and dark lips, the looks are irresistibly alluring. Shot by photographer Arkan Zakharov with art direction by Brittany Eccles, the ELLE Canada December 2013 editorial stars models Celestine Rioux and Kristen Murphy. The beauties are made especially glamorous thanks to makeup artist Simone Otis. Hair stylist Antonio Corral Calero complemented the femininely flawless faces with slick ponytails and luscious waves. The equally festive wardrobe was styled by Fiona Green and showcases [jewel-toned colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment) and tons of texture. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Playful Beauty:** Opportunity to create playful and festive makeup and hairstyles for the holiday season. - **Colorful Smokey Eyes:** Innovation opportunity to develop new techniques and products to achieve unique and vibrant smokey eye makeup. - **Jewel-toned Colors:** Opportunity to create new beauty products using rich and vibrant jewel-toned shades. ### Where This Applies - **Beauty and Personal Care:** Continuously adapting to the latest trends and developing new beauty products to cater to the ever-changing beauty industry. - **Fashion:** Working with the beauty industry to create cohesive fashion and beauty looks that are fresh and trendy. - **Photography and Art Direction:** Exploring new creative ideas and techniques to visually capture the latest beauty trends in a unique and appealing way. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [High-End Holiday Makeup Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-holiday-2025-makeup.md) - [Affordable Holiday Makeup Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/limitededition-makeup-holiday-kits.md) - [Opulent Holiday Apparel Lineups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brunette-the-label-3.md) - [Festive Film Makeup Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/revolution-beauty-x-elf-collection.md) - [Thematic Holiday Makeup Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treatinspired-holiday-2025-collection.md) - [Embellished Holiday Party Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veronica-beard-party-edit.md) - [Festive Beauty Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festive-beauty-packaging.md) - [Festive Hair Care Offerings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/designmes-holiday-2025-gift-collection.md) - [Beauty-Branded Holiday Markets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loral-paris-distiller.md)
