It‘s the time of the year again.. events, parties and social gatherings everywhere. I honestly quite enjoy the busy festive season, and I do love adding some extra glitter and glamour to my outfits in december. However, when it comes to my makeup, I like to stay away from glitter. But at the same time I do like to make it look a bit more special than my normal everyday look.
So what am I going to be wearing this festive season? I think a classic red lip, a winged liner and false lashes are the way to go for me. Festive, classic and not ‚too much‘. Today I am sharing with you my fave products for this look.
The Base
For a glowy and flawless look I love to combine my By Terry Celullarose Brightening CC Serum with my Dior Forever Skin Glow Foundation. These two are a dream-team. They give me a perfected look, with a light-weight feel. However, the coverage is definitely on the lighter side, so if you like to go for full coverage, I would suggest the standard Dior Forever Foundation.
The Eyes
Again, I love a subtle look here. However, the By Terry Ombré Blackstar Eyeshadowsticks give my eyelids a slight shimmer and I am here for it! They are also so easy to use – I am obsessed. For my liner I love the NYX Epic Wear Liquid Liner. My lashes of choice are the Ardell Demi Wispies – a classic for a reason!
The Lips
I must admit I used to be quite scared of red lipstick, especially if the event I am going to involves any kind of drinking or eating (and I mean that’s what christmas is all about, right?). But I find if you find the right shade of red for you and then just see which formula works best for your requirements, red is a gorgeous choice! I find more blue-toned reds suit my complexion the most, and I love a matte liquid lip – the staying power is simply the best. The Yves Saint Laurent Tatouage Couture Lipsticks are my fave. I have almost every shade and I just adore them.
