Beginners: Burgundy Lips

A holiday makeup look would never be complete without a burgundy lip moment. Try your usual daily makeup up and swap your lipstick for a matte, rich burgundy shade. Go easy on the eye makeup, you want your lips to be the center of attention.

Beginners: Glitter Lids

As a former ballerina, glitter lids are my thing. Scatter some glitter across your eyes, but here’s the trick, extend it well beyond the outer corners to take it up a notch. Keep the rest of your makeup look minimal to let the glitter take center stage.

This makeup style never fails for the holidays. It’s all about bold eyeliner, glossy lids, and that classic red lipstick for the ultimate Old Hollywood glam look. Perfect for holiday office parties or dinner with your friends.

Change up the classic smoky eye look by finding the ultimate emerald-green eyeshadow. Here, your eyes become the statement of the night. Match with a soft lipstick and volumizing eyelashes for the perfect makeup look.

What seems an easy makeup look can be challenging to achieve. That’s why I saved it for advanced makeup lovers. Add a pop of color into your look with bold pinks and glossy cheeks and eyeshadows.
