As we are all aware it is only 5 weeks until CHRISTMAS! My favourite time of year!
I (like many others) was so excited to see the John Lewis penguin advert and for me it signals that the Christmas countdown can officially begin!
To make you all feel a tad more festive here are some beautiful images I found on Pinterest
(don't worry theres plenty more where these came from)
So with the festive period drawing nearer, we all need to start:
A. Christmas shopping (seriously though not long now)
B. Planning our outfits and what we'll wear over the Christmas holidays
I've been on Pinterest getting some inspiration and ideas as to what make-up trends will be perfect for the Winter season, and I've found some Id like to share and hopefully inspire you like they have me!
Eyes
I am loving all of these looks - they would be fabulous for any Christmas parties or even on Christmas Day if you fancy dressing up!
Loving the gold glitter to add a touch of sparkle and magic, or even add some eye liner for a striking look or perhaps create a brown smokey eye wth lashings of mascara to really open up your eyes!
I want to try to recreate this look over Christmas!
Lips
Dark berry/plum lips are bang on trend for the Winter season and I am loving them! I definatly think the more matte lipsticks look better! Just be sure to check your teeth for lipstick transfer stains!
This darker lip shades would look great with brown smokey eye and some contouring on the cheeks for extra definintion!
There are plenty of dark lip colours around at the moment both drug store and high end so get searching for your favourite, it'll see you right through the months ahead!
Nails
Love all of these shades - at the moment I have 'pointy nails' which I am loving, and I enjoy picking which shade to have next - try matching your nails to your lipstick (again stick with dark reds and berrys) or go super Christmassy and add some glitter! Stunning for Christmas
Hope you've enjoyed reading about some of my favourie make up looks for over the Christmas Holidays! & I hope they may have inspired you start thinking about your holiday make up!
