With holiday party season in full swing, these 5 holiday beauty tips will get you ready to shine!
Hair – Pull your hair back in a slightly tousled chignon or even a polished pony! Wear a bold, sparkly hair accessory as a statement piece. Try one of these crystal barrettes or a sparkly headband.

Skin – A little shimmer goes a long way during this time of year. Having the just a hint of shimmer on your skin can be so flattering in the warm glow of holiday lighting. Don’t go overboard! Subtle is best! I prefer liquid for normal-dry skin and powder for oily skin.

Eye Makeup – Go for the Gold this season! Whether a gold shimmery shadow or gold liner, either will make your eyes sparkle! Finish off with a volumizing mascara! Don’t like gold? Instead, go for a smoky eye with a deep bronze or other metallic hue.

Nails – Go Glitter! A pretty french manicure with glittery tips. A base of any festive color with a sprinkle of glitter on top. My favorite is a clear or very sheer base color with a gradient sprinkle of glitter on the ends. Using a fan brush can also be helpful in applying the glitter. You can just use a glitter polish, but I prefer using fine cosmetic or body glitter. Apply a good top coat to seal.

Lips – A bold lip will go well with your gold eye makeup or any subtle eye makeup. Think Deep Burgundy! If you’re going with a sultry, smokey eye, then use a red lip color! Keep you lips moisturized and don’t forget to exfoliate them regularly so your lip color goes on smooth and beautiful! You don’t want to try applying a red lipstick with dry, cracked lips!
