For both, it&#8217;s due to evolutionary traits, signalling vital resources like water. In addition to mimicking vital freshwater, we receive neurochemical rewards, a dopamine rush, from bright light, and they also hold cultural significance,\u00a0signifying purity, wealth, or joy.   This all stems from our brains being wired to notice light glints for survival and finding them aesthetically pleasing.  While magpies are famous for collecting shiny items, we humans are not so different, which is why new shiny makeup always catches our eyes.  Meet the latest set of shimmering colours. Lune Liner, from Violette Fr here in <em>Tis the Season To Sparkle: Why We Love To Shine   <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6c433d9f2328ecbc10bd5a682d6ed60c wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sparkle and Shine<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-6c1999da63c2fd0b456a01f0fdf6bbc8 wp-block-paragraph\">We, too, like the magpie, are drawn to shiny things as they help us spot life-sustaining water and also trigger happiness, making sparkle a powerful visual cue for both necessity and delight. The strongest theory suggests our innate draw to shininess comes from needing to find fresh water, which reflects light. The changing light from sparkle floods the brain with dopamine, a &#8220;feel-good&#8221; neurotransmitter, creating feelings of happiness and excitement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-08d0d07b7b49c996749dfa9662d45eaa wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>New Makeup from Violette FR<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-df0c7bbeff384d58cd3bb9ffef05ca23 wp-block-paragraph\">Formulated with colour-shifting pigments, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.violettefr.com\/en-gb\/products\/lune-liner-collection\">Lune Liner<\/a> by Violette FR is designed and crafted for both artistry and ease.

Honestly, it\u2019s funny to say, but these colours kind of chose me in a way. I had a series of dreams while I was pregnant with my daughter, where she was this glowing golden moon, guiding me through these magical, otherworldly desert landscapes. She even told me her own name in them. I vividly remember the colours in those dreams; they were surreal, shimmering, and alive. It reminded me that magic is always around us, especially in nature. So while I\u2019m always inspired by the natural world, with these shades I went deeper. I looked to the elements\u2014to copper, to the aurora borealis, to ultraviolet light and flashes of lightning. Each one felt like its own form of glowing energy. And that became the vision for Lune Liner\u2019s shades: a way to bottle that energy into something wearable.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-636c4472ab62e9a6450a19079f1f33c5 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>What is the process like, since these aren\u2019t easy colours to make? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-c8b0f66753103f9cfe810f1310500f7f wp-block-paragraph\">Multichromes are definitely delicate, especially when you\u2019re working with clean, vegan formulas as we do. There are already multichrome liners out there, but I wanted to create something that felt more refined. Less over-the-top, more wearable. Something that adds a flicker of light or a subtle shift in mood and still feels chic and elevated. For me, \u201cmaximalism\u201d isn\u2019t about piling things on. It\u2019s about intention. I love a little surprise, a touch of light that catches the eye and makes someone do a double-take. That\u2019s the idea behind Lune.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-503ba6dd5d88a95f0c1ae408480aa40b wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest challenge was creating a formula that glides on effortlessly but still delivers that multidimensional payoff. The texture is almost like nail polish, smooth and fluid. You can sheer it out or layer it for a bolder look. And the applicator is needle-fine, it&#8217;s practically mistake-proof. We designed it so even someone who\u2019s never worn liquid liner before could feel confident using it. The combination of all of these things is what makes the formula so innovative.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-e5af1dd7fd75af0e7affee3c4144f49c wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Does technology help when making things like this? And if so, how?\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-399f22e3bfe97863464d013f5f7eb43b wp-block-paragraph\">Absolutely. I work really closely with our labs throughout the entire development process. But I\u2019ll admit, I can be a bit stubborn once I have a specific vision in mind. It often takes years to get a formula just right. Thankfully, we have an incredible product development team that helps me find the highest quality ingredients and pigments available. That might mean sourcing rare raw materials or building our own packaging completely from scratch. But the goal is always the same: high quality, minimal waste, and formulas that feel effortless to use. And as much as we prioritise artistry and performance, we\u2019re also mindful about keeping things accessible from a price perspective. That balance is really important to me.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-a2e97d9b9e130938a26d3a0a4a583add wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>What is the lead time from idea to production? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5a1f0bea20a8472da1c774660b55ba1b wp-block-paragraph\">It really varies; new formulas take three to six years to develop, and new shades can take up to 1.5 years. A formula like Lune Liner takes quite a long time. There are a lot of behind-the-scenes\u00a0steps people don\u2019t always see, from early forecasting (to avoid overproduction and waste) to countless rounds of formula testing and colour trials.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-8059623cbb7192c4a38f647d710773d4 wp-block-paragraph\">Once the formula is finalised, I work closely with our creative and marketing teams to shape the story around the product. Sharing my creative process with my community has always been important to me, and with Lune, it was no different. I wanted them to hear the authentic story, from those early dreams to the elemental inspiration behind each shade. This one felt deeply personal, so I wanted to weave that sense of wonder into everything, the packaging, the campaign, the copy. The goal was to bring people into my creative process in a very real, emotional way.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VIOLETTE_FR-LUNE-LINER-8.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"732\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VIOLETTE_FR-LUNE-LINER-8.jpeg?resize=580%2C732&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-189428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VIOLETTE_FR-LUNE-LINER-8.jpeg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VIOLETTE_FR-LUNE-LINER-8.jpeg?resize=238%2C300&amp;ssl=1 238w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/VIOLETTE_FR-LUNE-LINER-8.jpeg?resize=768%2C969&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-816575fa09aa2c8b714da9912706e056 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Why is the idea of luminosity so important in makeup right now? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-44183674b5ed8e75eb5fdd3e05960262 wp-block-paragraph\">Was it ever not important? <em>(laughs) <\/em>I think luminosity has always been key. I often look to Renaissance painters who used different techniques to bring light to the skin, and that has informed many of my formulas, the glass-skin effect of our Baume Shine highlighter or the light-reflection of Lune Liner, which gives skin the feeling of being alive.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1176dcf7b6f7bfebeb7aaf8521bc62a3 wp-block-paragraph\">But beyond the aesthetic, I think we\u2019re all craving a little light right now, literally and metaphorically. Maybe that\u2019s why we\u2019re drawn to shimmer and shift and surreal, magical textures. It\u2019s a bit of escapism. A way to express joy and curiosity even when things feel heavy. For me, working with light, whether it\u2019s in makeup or in mood, is a way of tapping into something universal. It reminds me of the magic that surrounds us every day, and I think that\u2019s something worth sharing.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-521c4097ef0cad49f995b724c4d7cf6f wp-block-paragraph\">Find The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.violettefr.com\/en-gb\/products\/lune-liner-collection\">Lune Liner Collection Here at VioletteFR.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-d3df7955493ecf7966697ea73a777666 wp-block-paragraph\">If you enjoyed reading, <em>Tis the Season To Sparkle: Why We Love To Shine, <\/em>then why not read <em><a href=\"https:\/\/staging.centmagazine.co.uk\/whats-hiding-under-the-wonderful-christmas-tree-this-year-10\/\">What&#8217;s under the Christmas tree 10 here<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-secondary-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-16446e0f8bb2233a8af3f5e8d5f29768 wp-block-paragraph\">.Cent Magazine London. <strong><em>Luxury Mindset<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We people, not unlike animals, do like shiny things.
