Merry Late Christmasssss!!!!!

Tis' the season to be jolly..

in honor of christmas time im gonna go over some make up styles you can do for christmas, prior to christmas, or even new year. i had troubles figuring out last night what type of make up do you wear for christmas? not too dark, but not too light, i figured out that you can do a crisp snowy color..meaning you can add nice shine to your cheekbones with a rosey blush. i got a Too Faced palette as a gift the other day and its great for xmas make up.By acheiving a light yet smokey christmas look i used the top left color called "milk chocolate" and i did the corners of the eyes with the bottom left shadow which is called "dirty bag" and to top it off i used the rosey blush along with the mirror mirror gloss. btw the two faced palette is about $39.50.

if you wanna go totally deckeddd out in xmas colors watch Miss Chevious's tutorial either the holiday greens tutorial or you can watch the fall inspired look:

other colors you can mix up for the holiday looks are mostly cranberries, forest greens, browns, coppers, golds, and you can also use Retrospeck from M.A.C. which will give you a great frosted look.


now that the make up is down, and you know what you are going to apply on your eyes, its crucial that you prep your face before applying foundation. wash your face with philosphy...literally: ($78)

Since the set is pricey, you can buy the purity by itself for about $10. after washing your face make sure you apply some moisturizer and then apply primer to your face (M.A.C. primer or smashbox photo finish)

hope you guys have a happy holidays!!
