Hi guys! You all seemed to like my fall makeup routine so much so I decided to do a holiday makeup routine! The holidays are my favorite time of year (if you couldn’t tell already) and I love doing my makeup to match the season. I tend to do a bright lip so I make my eyes more natural but spice it up with a wing liner.
So, lets go!
- I always start off with a moisturizer to prep my skin. Just like during my fall makeup routine, I am still loving the e.l.f. daily moisturizer.
- Next grab your favorite eye shadow primer and blend that all over your lid. After that grab a pencil liner and line your upper lash lines.
- This next step is my favorite…the eyeshadow! I added a shimmery nude color all over my lid for a wash of color. Next with a matte brown I blended that into my crease and deepened the outer v with a darker matte brown. I used a combinations of the Swamp Queen palette by Grav3yard Girl x Tarte and Naked Basics by Urban Decay for this look.
- Foundation time! I have been using a CC cream to getting added moisture but, you can use any foundation you like! You can even mix some cream with your foundation to give you the added moisture.
- Set that face! I just use a finishing powder and then I am done!
- Next I bronzed up my face by sweeping a matte bronzer along my cheekbones and forehead.
- When it comes to blush I use a cream and then a powder to set it using the excess powder on my nose a little.
- I used a champagne highlight on my cheekbones to make them pop and then put the excess on my cupids bow and nose.
- To finish up the eyes, I used a shimmery white eye shadow in the inner corner to highlight and did a small wing liner using some liquid liner. This is always the step that either makes or breaks your look so be sure to take your time!
- Next I move on to filling in my brow lightly with a pencil and then adding some of that same highlight shade from my face to my brow bone to make it pop!
- Swipe on your favorite mascara to your top and bottom lashes.
- Finish up with your favorite red lipstick to get into the holiday season!
And you’re done! See how quick and easy it is?
I hope you guys enjoyed this makeup look and are now even more excited to do your makeup for the holidays! I will be sure to talk to you soon,
