The holiday season is perfect for every woman to make one step forward and try something different when it comes to makeup. If on a daily basis you are used to wear no makeup whatsoever, this is the right moment to reveal your wildest and sexiest side. Take a look to some holiday makeup tips.
Special events require stunning appearances, whether we are talking about a fabulous outfit, a sophisticated hairstyle, or a flawless makeup. Since there are so many different makeup styles where to choose from, you need to pay attention and find one suitable for the occasion. Besides, this should be flattering for your features, face shape and match the outfit.
If you are not used to wearing makeup every day, choosing the right style shouldn't be a big problem as long as you know what works best for you. On the other hand, if you apply makeup daily, for the holidays, you must add a magical touch to your face. Keep in mind that certain occasions and events ask for something bolder, while for others a nude makeup is enough. You can bring an unique vibe using different glittery or metallic eyeshadows, or transform a daytime makeup into a party one.
However, despite the fact that this type of events require something more special, it is more than important to remember that the makeup you wear should boost self-confidence, especially if you are not used with dazzling effects. Therefore, it is important to find a balanced approach, even if this means adding just a glittery touch to a natural makeup, as one must feel comfortable. For example, imagine mixing a flawless looking nude makeup with sexy red lips for a chic and passionate feeling.
In order to obtain the result you are looking for, you should be very careful with your skin care routine before the holidays. This includes cleansing, exfoliating, and moisturizing. For a healthy-looking and glowing skin, make sure you sleep well the night before the party. Moreover, this way there are slight chances for you to wake up with those unwanted dark circles.
The whole makeup process is a set of various elements and stages that put together are meant to make us feel beautiful and unique. For this, it is crucial to follow all those basic makeup steps. First thing, and most important, is the base. The result of a well-chosen makeup base is a glowing, luminous, flawless skin. Choosing the right makeup base means taking into consideration your skin complexion and skin type. Foundation, concealer and highlighter represent the famous key products of a perfect makeup base that helps us hide imperfections and enhance our natural beauty.
Now, as for the eyeshadows, it is more than true that shimmer is the number one festive choice. Still, one can look extremely hot with a minimalist makeup. In this sense, using pastels is a must. A light touch of eyeshadow and mascara can become the most elegant statement. If you want to add a mysterious vibe, use an eyeliner and make a cat-eye makeup. If you think this is too boring for you, there are other variants, such as vibrant shades, metallics, gold and silver, or the irreplaceable and timeless, already legendary, smoky eye makeup. When bringing out the eyes, try to keep the rest of the makeup more simple.
After the eye makeup is done, you can apply the appropriate blush shade on your cheekbones. Don't forget about the lips, which should be properly taken care of. Exfoliating and moisturizing are two essential steps when it comes to lip care, especially during winter time. Whether you go for lipstick or lip gloss, always have in mind the overall aspect. Lip stick should be chosen based on your skin complexion. For a long-lasting makeup, apply a makeup base specially designed to fix eye makeup and lipstick. If you choose a retro holiday hairstyle with gentle waves, bold red lips represent the perfect "accessory".
