I
cannot believe that it is Christmas Eve! I am so excited. This is the makeup
that I will be wearing tomorrow as well, but it’s also my makeup for today.
There will be no post tomorrow, but on Boxing Day there will be my favourites
of 2014. This is a really festive look that’s perfect for a Christmas party or
for a day at home with the family!
For
my foundation I am using the Bare Minerals foundation, which I’ve done a first
impressions on here. On my under eyes I am using the Maybelline fit me
concealer and I am pinpoint concealing my blemishes with the Collection concealer.
They are quite similar but the Maybelline is just creamier and more moisturising,
but has a little less coverage.
For
blush I am using No7 coral flush which is one of my all-time favourites. I
mention it all the time and love it! I am contouring and bronzing my face with
the HD brows powder foundation in the shade 3. It’s really creamy and blend
able, also a great shade to create a realistic shadow. I like a strong
highlight for Christmas, so I’m using the Body shop glow radiance pearls. They
leave a beautiful healthy sheen.
For
eye shadow I am doing a semi-smoky glittery gold eye with the Urban decay naked
3 palette. I start by taking ‘strange’ into my inner corners, brow bone and
lids. This is a great matte cream highlight. I then take ‘limit’ above and into
the crease to blend the edges. Then ‘Nooner’ into the crease for definition and
on the outer corner. Then for a pop of glitter, I dampen my brush and pack
‘trick’ all of my lids. You can also apply this to the inner corner.
I am
using the Soap and glory super cat liner (which is AMAZING) to do a thin line
at my lash line with a flick at the outer corner. I ever so slightly smudge
that in with ‘blackheart’. For mascara I am using Barry M extra volume black
showgirl for natural but defined lashes.
For
my brows I am filling them in with a little of the bronzer on an angled brush
and brushing them through so they look natural.
Finally
on my lips I am using the Rimmel Kate Moss matte lipstick in 111 ‘kiss of
life’, which is a great red shade. I top that with Tanya Burr ‘Heart skipped a
beat’ which is really similar to ‘Mistletoe kisses’ which is limited edition
for Christmas and I can’t find this in store, but this is really similar! It’s
a glittery red gloss that’s amazing.
Have
a great Christmas x
