My Simple Holiday Makeup Look

Most of the time, I keep my makeup routine minimal and natural. For the holidays, though, I like to make it a little more fun! Even though we don’t have any big plans, I still want to get dressed up and do my hair and makeup. Today through December 9th you can get up to $25 off at Sephora, so it’s the perfect opportunity to experiment with different looks. Today I’m sharing my simple holiday makeup look!

Step By Step

I start off by applying Benefit Highbeam liquid highlighter to the tops of my cheekbones, tops of my brow bones, the bridge of my nose, and the top of my lip. This helps give a “lit from within” glow. When I’m doing a full face of makeup, I use Armani Luminous Silk foundation. It’s medium coverage and never looks cakey. Next, I apply concealer where I need it. I love the Fenty Pro Filt’r concealer. It isn’t drying and doesn’t settle into fine lines. It’s basically the perfect concealer for me. Next I use my Laura Mercier caviar stick in Caramel on my eyelids to add a little definition. I also use it to contour. While that’s all settling I fill in my brows with a brow pencil by Tarte. Next, I set everything with Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless setting powder. This is the best powder I’ve ever used! It really does blur your pores and make your skin look flawless. Next, I bronze a little bit under my cheekbones, hairline, and jawline with Benefit Hula. I add a hint of color to my cheeks with Dior Rosy Glow. I like to add eyeliner to my top lashes only to define my eyes without making them look too heavy. I’ve been using the Bobbi Brown gel liner for years. I like to add a little flick at the end for a subtle cat eye. Next I curl my lashes and apply mascara. My favorite high end mascara is Diorshow Waterproof. The only one that holds my curl! Lastly, gotta have a red lip for the holidays. Nars Dragon Girl is the perfect holiday red.
