Putting all of my flip flops away, bringing out the boots and sweaters, and the chilly weather this morning means that my favorite season is right around the corner – the holidays! During a season chock full of parties and celebrations, I think it’s important (and fun!) to accessorize that little black dress with glam holiday makeup.
With clients like jane iredale and Black Opal, it’s easy to achieve a stunning look. Personally, I think it’s best to emphasize one feature and really make it pop - usually my eyes - with something sparkly. Though I might be a little biased, jane iredale’s latest collection has beautiful gold, black, and brown liquid eye liners that I absolutely love!
Jane has a great tip to really make eyes stand out: paint a wider gold band first and then a thinner black one along the lash line. Or, for a more subtle look, use the liquid liner brush to paint dots between your lashes to give the illusion of thicker and fuller lashes – something that definitely works for me since I wasn’t blessed with the best lashes in the world.
This year, I think I’ll try to mix it up and emphasize the lips with the new Joy lipstick, which has some sparkle in it as well, but still looks classic and elegant. No matter what feature you decide to emphasize, make it bold!
