Illuminate the party
1st December 2010
Sometimes we just need a touch of light to brighten up our winter nights. By taking glamour to the next level we can bring light to our face and focus to our features.
Too many parties, late nights, cold weather and alcohol can leave skin looking dull, so give it a helping hand with these complexion enhancers for an on-tend party look. Prepare to shine through into the new year and enjoy the festive moments in soft and shimmery makeup, just like those we’ve seen all over the autumn winter catwalks.
There is something quite alluring about an evening makeup of glossy lips, shimmery eyes and dewy skin, and this festive season is no exception.
Get the look. . .
Illuminating foundations.
Not all of us like to wear a heavy foundation during these winter months so by choosing a light illuminating base which is lighter in texture, we can have that all important glow, yet still achieve some crucial cover, whilst helping to create a flawless dewy complexion.
Liquid shimmer.
Come sunset, and in low lighting it’s impossible to go wrong with a liquid shimmer. With many shades to choose from you can dress your skin up and create a gorgeous, glowing base, pat onto high points of your face like cheek bones to polish and sculpt definition to your complexion or try dotting on the inner corners of eyes and onto your cupid’s bow for a plump-looking pout.
Day to night doesn’t get any easier than applying a dash of glitter to your eyes. Whether it is at your desk or in the back of a taxi, choose a palette with a selection of this seasons new colours. Simply create smokiness by smudging pewter, gunmetal or plum eyeshadow all the way along into the crease of your eye. This look is less harsh than black but equally dramatic.
Sexy body shimmers
These days there isn’t a single celebrity who would even think about stepping onto the red carpet without a subtle shimmer gracing her décolletage and shoulders. So wether you prefer a powder, cream or an oil don’t forget this important step and bring your winter skin alive and create a healthy, glamorous glow to see you through into the new year.
Red lipstick has all that it takes to turn lips into a statement.
Nothing says notice me, like a slick of red lipstick, and with the screen siren look still popular on the red carpet, red lips should be your ultimate party makeup must have. Choose a rich, deep, seductive red or opt for a high gloss berry lipgloss. Don’t ever be afraid of mixing the colours up to achieve a more wearable shade.
