Wrapped in red.



"In all this white you'll see me like you never did, 
wrapped in red."
Hello lovelies,
I just wanted to put together a more glamourous look for you for the holidays. Whenever I think of Christmas makeup, I think of a beautiful red lip, and a vintage inspired eye look. The skin is very simple.
 I used Revlon Colorstay foundation, Rimmel Wake Me Up concealer, and Rimmel Stay Matte powder to achieve an absolutely flawless finish. 

Next for eyes, blend a matte skin color shadow over the 
entire lid to establish one color and hide any darkness or veins that may show through. Next, I used a gold sparkle shadow from the Calvin Klein one quad in 700 boho just across the lid, and onto the socket, and blended it into the crease with a tiny bit of tease from the Naked 2 palette.  I highlighted under my brow with a matte white shadow, then applied a brow gel to hold everything in place.
Next, is my signature thick winged liner. Just a trick when applying liquid liner, make sure you set it with a black shadow after. This ensures that it will not budge for the rest of the day! A couple coats of mascara, and a smudge of black shadow under the eye, and the eye look is complete. 

The lips are so easy. I used a red lip liner, and set it with a red eyeshadow. Sounds weird, and you're probably like "what the hell is this girl thinking?" Matte lips are incredibly on trend, and setting the lip liner with a shadow will make sure you don't end up the laughing stock of the holidays with lipstick all over your teeth.


What is your go to look for the holidays?
Let me know!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!
Until then.
Love Always,
                                                                             -K.
