r.e.m. beauty is preparing for the holiday season with a new limited edition collection inspired by ballet, winter color and soft stage tones. The Holiday 2026 lineup arrives online and at retailers on September 30.
MAKEUP
The collection centers on The Prima Palette, a six-shade eyeshadow palette. r.e.m. beauty builds the color story around ballet references, pairing velvety matte shades with luminous duochrome finishes. The palette includes Barre Naked, a soft pink; Twinkle Toes, which combines rose gold, lavender and iridescent shimmer; Take a Bow, a rich plum; Center Stage, a shimmering mauve; Leotard, a muted rose; and Spotlight, a reflective pink shimmer. The brand describes the shades as highly pigmented with formulas designed to build and diffuse across the lid.
The Prima Palette also carries a connection to Ariana Grande’s live performances, having appeared earlier during the Eternal Sunshine Tour before its wider release as part of the holiday collection.
Lips form another major part of the launch. The Gloss Barre Mini Glossy Balm Set includes three mini shades named Frosted Fairy, Sugar Plum and Snow Blossom. Two new shades take inspiration from tulle pinks and the icy shine associated with a winter ballet, while the set introduces a seasonal Sugarplum fragrance. The balms deliver sheer color with a glossy finish while providing hydration and treatment benefits. Pomegranate and passion fruit antioxidants feature in the formula, alongside hyaluronic acid for moisture.
The Satin Slumber Lip Mask also receives a holiday update. The treatment arrives in a new gourmand scent created for the season. Its formula targets dry and textured lips with lactic acid, while a tripeptide supports the lip surface. Shea butter and plant-derived moisturizers provide hydration and help maintain the moisture barrier. The mask is designed to keep lips hydrated for up to 24 hours.
r.e.m. beauty has also previewed additional items within the Holiday 2026 collection, including a face palette and blush sticks. The collection keeps its visual direction close to ballet through soft pinks, plum shades, icy shimmer and stage-inspired naming.
With eyes, lips and complexion products included across the range, the Holiday 2026 collection gives r.e.m. beauty a seasonal edit built around ballet references, winter finishes and limited edition color.
