This holiday season, Emma Lewisham introduces two limited-edition Holiday Gift Sets with packaging specially designed by one of New Zealand's most distinguished and internationally recognised artists.
Judy Millar is celebrated globally for her groundbreaking work, which unites abstract and dynamic expressions of colour, form, and texture. At the core of the partnership lies a profound alignment of values and a shared philosophy of innovation.
Emma Lewisham’s approach fundamentally challenges traditional beauty industry norms by proving that true luxury can be simultaneously science-led, circularly designed, and underpinned by unwavering integrity and purposeful innovation.
Similarly, Millar has been a pioneer in her field, becoming one of the first New Zealand abstractionists to achieve global recognition. Her work has been showcased at the prestigious Venice Biennale and exhibited in major galleries worldwide, including the Art Gallery of New South Wales and Kunstmuseum St. Gallen in Switzerland.
Her bold, gestural paintings have redefined contemporary abstract art, challenging conventional notions of scale, movement, and materiality while establishing New Zealand's presence on the global art stage. She embodies the same commitment to excellence without compromise that defines the Emma Lewisham philosophy.
"Partnering with Judy Millar is an honour. She is someone I deeply admire for her genuinely revolutionary thinking, unwavering integrity, and the values she embodies. Like us, she believes that true excellence comes from questioning every creative decision and never compromising on principles," said Emma Lewisham, Co-Founder and Creative Director.
"Our Holiday Gift Sets are a reflection of what we both believe: that the most meaningful and purposeful work creates a lasting, positive impact. This is the new definition of luxury."
The sets will be available in two exclusive artwork editions:
- The Essentials
A curated ritual of seven luxury minis designed to hydrate, brighten and renew. Each formulation harnesses up to 25 active ingredients that work in synergy to mimic the cellar pathways of the skin to deliver transformative, physiology-led results.
- The Heroes
A hand-selected trio of Emma Lewisham’s most iconic products, and a beautifully considered introduction to the brand’s high-performance, natural skincare. With clinically proven results, each formulation works to deeply hydrate, even skin tone, and visibly brighten the complexion.
“The artwork transforms giving into something intentional. Skincare is a daily ritual of care, and I wanted the packaging to carry that same intimacy," said Millar.
"Knowing my work will be part of those moments feels deeply meaningful. My hope is that when people receive these sets, they feel they’re holding something special: a gesture of intention, care and deep respect for both the giver and the receiver.”
The Emma Lewisham x Judy Millar Holiday Gift Sets will be available in New Zealand from the 14th of October 2025.
