Holiday makeup is my favorite makeup all year! The reds, golds, and greens are great shades on everyone. I had the chance to try out one of my newest looks at the Christmas symphony, and I ended up loving it! So, I wanted to share what products I used, and how I did what I did.
Steps
1.) Prime skin with Benefit POREfessional primer
2.) Wet Beauty Blender until it expands to prepare it for foundation, then dry it off
3.) Fill in and shape eyebrows with Anastasia Eyebrow Wiz
4.) Apply a mix of Makeup Forever and L'oreal Pro Matte foundation for the perfect foundation shade with Beauty Blender and fill in Mary Kay concealer over spots that need extra coverage
5.) Let it settle for a few minutes before doing anything else
6.) Apply NYX Eye Primer
7.) Apply NYX Lip Primer
8.) Blush cheek bones with a light layer of Smash Box Blush
9.) Highlight with Laura Geller Gold along the top of cheekbones up into above the eyebrow. Dust the leftovers on the brush over cupids bow, nose, and tip of chin
10.) While that settles, start on eyes with the Tartelette in Bloom (or similar neutral pallete) by following the diagram below
Initial All Over Base: Flower Child (or similar plain neutral shade)
Inner Corner & Lid: Funny Girl (or a similar neutral sparkly shade)
Middle of Lid & Inner Crease & Above Crease: Sweetheart (or similar pink shade)
Outer Corner & Deep Crease: Rebel (or similar red shade)
Brow Bone: Charmer (or similar neutral white shade)
11.) Lightly apply NYX Bronzer to jaw line, hair line, and below cheek bones for some shape
12.) Dust on NYX HD Photofinish Translucent Powder everywhere
13.) Add final details to eyebrows and then apply NYX Eyebrow Gel to hold eyebrows in place
14.) Apply multiple layers of L'oreal Voluminous Lash Paradise mascara
15.) Use a lip brush to apply NYX Lip Lingerie Matte Liquid Lipstick (or any medium dark neutral shade) with Maybelline Vivid Matte Lipstick (or any medium red shade)
16.) Spray NYX Matte Setting Spray three times all over face. With any extra wet spots, use a Beauty Blender to pat them over
This should be similar to your finished look. This is a great natural looking but still festive makeup routine! I hope it works great for you. Let me know if you have questions.
