It's the holiday season! Christmas means festive parties, and of course, parties mean dressing up and looking good. To rock the perfect festive look this season, here are some of the top makeup trends that will make you stand out this year:
Red lips. Christmas is the ultimate time to wear your favorite red lipstick. You can wear it for work, and if you're going to a Christmas party or a little bit of holiday shopping after, just touch it up and you're ready to go! Matte red lipsticks are all the rave right now, but if you want, you can top it off with a little bit of lip gloss for extra shine.
Colorful Eye Liner. Using a black eyeliner is usually one of the common looks for eye make-up, but this season, don't be afraid to try on new colors! Silver, Blue and Green are some trademark Christmas colors, and you can wear them on top of your eyeshadow or just leave it as it is for that perfect winter-ready look.
Rosy Blush. At last, it's the perfect season to pick up your pink blush and make them stand out. It's the cold season, and it's perfectly normal to look a little flushed. Bring that blush on the apples of your cheeks, but not too much that you'll look like a clown. You can place them on top of your bronzer, or just wear it with no fuss.
Festive Smokey Eyes. For a Christmas look, why don't you try wearing a smokey eye make-up that isn't black? Try smoking out a metallic green eyeshadow, with a warm transition color as your base. At Sephora, for instance, there are tons of makeup palettes that can help you achieve the right look, and if that doesn't make you look festive, nothing else will.
Vibrant Highlighters. Highlighters are getting quite popular these days. Mostly they're stored in a compact case just like your blush, but sometimes they're stored in little tubes for that instant drop of glow. Several makeup brands offer exciting new colors for highlight, and this season is perfect to try them out. Place them on the high points of your face, like your brow bone, bridge of the nose, your cupid's bow and top of the cheeks for a glittery, fun makeup look.
