Seasonal looks
A look for every season
Explore greets each season with its own looks: Halloween, winter and Galentine's for everyone, and, from the next update, local holidays where they're celebrated, from Bayram and Lunar New Year to hanami, Carnaval and Día de Muertos. Every seasonal look stays in Edit › Styles all year.
Updated 16 October 2026
Seasonal looks are one-tap AI looks for a holiday or a time of year. While a season is on, Explore shows its banner and a row of its looks, and in the 14 days before, a Coming soon card counts down. The rest of the year, every one of them waits in Edit › Styles, wherever you are.
For everyone
| Season | On Explore | Looks |
|---|---|---|
| Halloween | 1 October – 2 November | Spooky Portrait (Pro), Witchy Glam |
| Winter | 1 December – 6 January | Snow Globe Me (Pro), Cozy Sweater Digicam, New Year Confetti |
| Galentine's | 1 – 14 February | Galentine's Brunch, Heart Booth |
Local holidays Coming in the next update
Explore also celebrates holidays where they're celebrated. It picks them from your device's region, then your App Store country, then the app's language, so a holiday shows up where it means something. Lunar New Year looks also appear for anyone using Aybuke in Simplified Chinese. Dates that follow the moon or Easter come from the official calendars, year by year.

Made with respect
- Your own outfit: the local looks change the scene, the light and the decorations around you. Only Lantern Night and Carnaval Confetti may swap in a modest festive outfit.
- Your hair and head covering: a headscarf, a hat or a bow stays exactly as it is, and none is added, so a holiday look never dresses anyone for a faith.
- Decorations only for Día de Muertos: marigolds, candles and papel picado, never face paint.
- Still you: every look keeps your face, skin tone and natural skin texture, with no alcohol in the picture and no writing on lanterns or banners.

FAQ
Seasons, answered
Why don't I see a holiday's looks on Explore?
Explore shows a local holiday only where it's celebrated, based on your device's region, your App Store country and the app's language, and only on its dates. You can still use every seasonal look in Edit › Styles, all year.
Can I use a look from another country's holiday?
Yes. Every seasonal look is in Edit › Styles all year, wherever you are.
Are seasonal looks free?
Many are. Each local holiday has one free look and one Pro look. On the free plan, a look uses 1 of your 2 free AI credits a day.
Will a holiday look change my clothes or my headscarf?
No. The local looks keep your own outfit (two may offer a modest festive one), and your hair and anything you wear on your head stay exactly as they are.
What's the Coming soon card?
In the 14 days before a season starts, Explore shows a card that counts down to it. Tap it to see the looks, which already work.
