This time of year calls for a touch of sparkle, so whether you’re heading to a holiday party or just dialling into a Zoom call, this look is the perfect blend of sophistication and fun. Here’s how to add a little twinkle to your eye…
1. COMPLEX(ION) DECISIONS When it comes to nailing a festive look, it’s all about that base. Opt for a foundation that's heat-, humidity- and (hopefully!) canape-proof to keep you looking fresh and flawless throughout the day and all through the night (if necessary).
2. GROWN-UP GLITTER On the eyes, HOURGLASS Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow in Ray brings a refined sparkle. It brightens the eyes without looking kitsch or trying to outdo the tinsel. We used it here with bareMinerals Strength + Length Mascara and Mecca Cosmetica Eyes Wide Open Lashes for an extra lift.
3.REDDY, OR NOT? And what’s the holiday season without a red lip? Our pick is Westman Atelier Lip Suede for its long-lasting pigments and nourishing botanical ingredients. We used the shade Brick, a beautiful almost-burgundy. Prep the lips first with Mecca Cosmetica Lip Scrub for a smooth finish (that is, no flaky skin) and increased staying power.
