Makeup Tips for Christmas New Year

  • The Soft And Smooth Makeup Method
    Prep your skin by creating a smooth canvas for makeup. Facials and peels that are herbal or have glycolic acid (GA) are the best as they stimulate the skin and give it a healthy glow. You can also extend the life of your makeup by using a face primer to help even out the complexion and let your makeup products adhere to the skin better. While applying foundation on your face, follow the ‘less is more’ rule, i.e. apply less foundation by spreading it evenly over your face using a large foundation brush. Using a brush instead of your hands or fingers means you’ll use lesser foundation and avoid the “cakey” look and instead achieve a smooth and flawless finish.Set the foundation with some loose powder or compact to mattify your complexion and prevent shine.

  • Let Your Eyes Do The Talking
    To get a mesmerising evening look, let your eyes take all the attention. Beautiful smokey eyes will play a big part in creating a sexy and seductive evening look for the next holiday party. In order to make your eye makeup last, always use some eye primer on your eyelids. Then sweep a sparkling and attractive eyeshadow on your lids, line them with a black eyeliner, and enhance the glam quotient with two coats of your favourite mascara. You are now ready to rock the party! Green or blue eyeshadow shades are currently in vogue, and you could be an out-and-out fashion trendsetter by adopting these colours in your eye makeup.

  • Don’t Forget The Cheekbones
