Christmas Looks

This is the time of year where red lips and sparkle/glitter are the standards. Personally, I like to venture into metallics and jewel tones. Metallics are everywhere, especially with the Baroque trend - bring it on. Love me some rococo.

Easy way to wear metallics are through cream shadows. Depending on your skin and eye colour, silvers, coppers, golds and bronzes are gorgeous options for the holiday season.

  • Maybelline Colour Tattoo- Bold Gold, Bad to the Bronze, Audacious Asphalt
  • Bobbi Brown cream shadows- New Copper, Beach Bronze, Galaxy, Platinum

Instead of wearing red on the lip, why not try reds on the eye. Red tones in the form of burgundy, wine and cranberry are beautiful and wearable, especially if you have hazel or green eyes. Just remember to ground it with browns or blacks.

Suggestions:
  • MAC Cranberry
  • Nars Grenadine
  • Make Up Forever Burgundy 141
  • NYX Burgundy Pearl
  • L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadow Glistening Garnet




Other jewel tones like rich blues, emeralds and purples are options that everyone can carry off.  
  • L'Oreal Infallible eyeshadow- Night Blue, Purple Chrome
  • MAC- Freshwater, Deep Truth, Humid, Club
  • Urban Decay- Ransom, Graffiti

Have a wonderful Christmas and remember to have fun with your makeup.
