Simple Holiday Makeup

IMG_0538I wanted to post this simple holiday makeup look that I did on myself that I thought could give everyone some ideas on makeup to wear to a holiday party. I wore this look on the day that Kristina from Inspired by Lynne and Diana from 204 Park rented the Project Lofts to shoot some holiday looks. I joined in along with Aislin of Mr and Mrs L and Breanne who was shooting the content to help out where I could. Kristina snapped some product shots for me and I couldn’t resist having her take a shot of the look that I was wearing too. To me Christmas or Holiday makeup screams for a red lip and this one is compliments of Tom Ford Cherry Lush. To go with the red lip I kept my eyes soft with shades of champagne, bronze and gold using the Charlotte Tilbury cream shadow in Jean as a base all over and her eye shadow palette The Dolce Vita. To frame my eyes I used my new favorite angled brow pencil from Hourglass which I also mentioned here. To add some extra shimmer to my cheekbones and inner corner of my eyes I used the Kevyn Aucoin roll on shadow in Candlelight. To contour and bronze my face I used the Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow as it doesn’t look orange on my fair skin. The star product of this look has to be the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit palette. I used the 2 lightest shades to set my under eye concealer and then the two blush colors mixed together to pull my whole look together. I hope this post gives you some ideas to try out for your holiday parties coming up or for maybe New Years!IMG_0530
