Makeup and Holiday Sparkles

Remember ladies, this holiday season don’t go overboard on the glitter. If you sparkle on your eyes, don’t top your lips with glimmer too. Play up just one feature (cheeks, lips, eyes, skin) with shimmer and you will be festive but not “that girl”.

Typically I will break out a little extra sparkle by applying a shimmery shadow on my browbone and then *lightly* sweeping same color across the bridge of the nose and one strip across your cheeks. It just adds a subtle shine, not even noticeable. Another alternative, if you are showing shoulder is to use body lotion with shimmer (such as those by Jergens or Revlon) and apply across your shoulders. You’re skin will have a healthy glow under lighting, but you will not appear faux tanned.

Also, take into account what you plan to wear. A charcoal gray or little black dress with rhinestones demands sophisticated makeup. Stick with a glammed up version of the natural look.
