4 Days Til Christmas ~ 4 Fabulous Makeup Looks You Should Try

by sugar on December 21, 2011

With the big day straight ahead, it’s time to start finalizing your look.  Christmas Eve offers a sense of drama and fun that only comes around on those big holidays so why not play it up with some gorgeous makeup.  Here are 4 fabulous looks we think you should try.

(4) Smoky eyes against bronzy, shimmering skin (above).  Brush plum across your lid, dark tones around the outside corners of your eyes and line with a smudge of shadow.  Black mascara finishes the look.  Bronze your cheeks with a shade darker pressed mineral powder and smooth over forehead and neck for an even look.  Touch the apples of your cheeks with an ice pink blush that has a bit of sparkle, and shine your lips with light pink gloss.  The look is natural and gorgeous.  Finish the look with our customizable earrings and silver peace charm. 

 

(3) Be a Glam Queen with this retro look.  Bright red lips were made for Christmas – match them with a light shade of eyeshadow, black liquid eyeliner painted across the entire eyelid, and topped with a light false eyelash.  This look is marked by thick, dramatic eye brows (think Elizabeth Taylor, Audrey Hepburn, and Joan Crawford) – if your brows aren’t this thick, use a bit of brown eyeshadow to fill them in.   Finish the look (if you dare) by using a little eyeliner to paint a fun beauty mark on your cheek.   If you’re playing Santa – this look is a must!

(2) Dark eyes and light lips make this dramatic look so appealing this time of year.  Light eyelids and thick false eyelashes play up the eyes, while light shimmering foundation, cheeks kissed with a pinky peach, and a light lip gloss bring out the glam factor.  Pin one of our Large Charms in your hair with a bobby pin and you’re all set!

(1) My favorite look of the season is this fun holiday angel.  You don’t have to go all the way to get the feel – just paint snowflakes on your cheeks and add a couple of rhinestones for a bit of pizzazz.  Match these with a sparkly silver eyeshadow, and a light lip and you’ll be the toast of the party.
