1. CHRISTMAS RED AND GOLD
First up we have this red and gold Christmas makeup look. We love this makeup idea because it combines Christmassy glitter and festive red in a very glamorous way. This look could be quite simple to recreate just try a smokey eye with a small sweep of glitter and finish off with red lips. This would suit any festive occasion.
2. FESTIVE GOLD AND GREEN
Another must-have colour combination for Christmas is gold and green. Our next makeup idea shows how to put these two together in style! On the top of the lid is a stunning shimmering gold with a sweep of green along the waterline. To recreate the look, you will need Morphe Jaclyn Hill palette and Stila Cosmetics in Rose Gold Retro Magnificent Metal or products like them.
3. CLASSIC MAKEUP IDEA FOR CHRISTMAS
Red lips look chic at any time of year but especially during the festive season. Red is an iconic Christmas colour and red lipstick is a very stylish way to wear. This next makeup idea features vibrant red lips with the classic black eyeliner on the eyes. This is an easy makeup idea that will suit anyone for Christmas.
4. GLITTERING GOLD
If subtle is not really your thing and you want to make the most of the sparkly season, then this next makeup idea is for you. These eyes feature a stunning blend of gold, dark tones and glitter. We just love this look. Eyes like these would look amazing for a Christmas party.
5. GLITTER AND GEMS
Next, we have a darker glam makeup idea. The makeup uses vampy purples and glitter to create a gorgeous look that will wow. Dark purples like these are must-haves for the winter so you can wear the shades long after Christmas is over. With makeup like this you can celebrate Christmas in style.
6. BOLD FESTIVE RED EYELINER
Want a trendy way to wear festive red? Then this next idea could be for you. This eye makeup features a striking and sharp red eyeliner line with minimal shadow and black lashes. We love this idea because it is a stylish take on the classic liner. To create a look like this you need Makeup Forever Aqua XL Color Paint in m-72 or something like it.
7. ICY SHIMMER
Next, we have a makeup idea that looks fit for an ice princess! The eyes feature a wintry blue shadow with a sweep of silver glitter. Makeup like this will let your sparkle in style this Christmas.
8. EYELINER AND GLITTER
Like to wear smokey eyes? Then this next look could be for you. The eyes have the classic dark smokey eye but with hint of shimmer and sparkle. While the eyes start dark, the shadow eventually gets lighter until it blends into glitter. There is also a thin glitter line in the crease. To recreate this look you will need Smashbox Cosmetics Full Exposure Palette Shades ‘S2 & S3’, Morphe Brushes 35O Palette and NYX Cosmetics Liquid Crystal Liner in Crystal Gold.
9. PINK SHADES AND GLITTER
Our next idea is for the ladies who want to look like a glam princess through the festive season. This makeup features warm pink shades that have some sparkle. The lips are finished off in a light pink matte lip colour. Makeup like this would look gorgeous for new year too.
10. FESTIVE GOLD SHIMMER SMOKEY EYES
Last on our list is this rose gold glitter look. Rose gold is a must-have for 2017 so it would be the perfect choice for the festive season. To recreate the look, you will need Morphe Brushes Jaclyn Hill Palette and Stila Rose Gold Retro Magnificent Metals Glitter.
We hope you have found your perfect makeup idea for this festive season!
