My Five Favourite Festive Makeup Looks

Leave a Comment

With only 9 sleeps until Christmas (yes really) I'm finding my social calendar pretty chocka block, not that I'm complaining! I absolutely love it, and especially all the party make up looks along the way! 

Christmas is the best time of year to go all out on looks that you wouldn't normally wear, or looks that shimmer and glimmer. On Saturday night I was getting ready for a friends birthday, and I decided to go simple with a cat eye and subtle lip but then last night I had a party and I decided I needed some seasonal sparkle. 

There are just no rules and it's great to be able to express yourself with a nude lip, bold lip, cat eye or gold glitter.

Just be confident and go for it.

Here are my favourite festive makeup looks that I shall be wearing over the Christmas Period, all that shadow and lipstick I can't wait.
