Beaute-ful Holiday Looks No. 1

We're pulling out all the stops this year and giving you all the trends and looks for this Holiday Season. Each week this month we'll be posting a new holiday look for you to try out.. from the office holiday party to getting a smooch at that New Years Bash.. You'll look amazing for each occasion.

Here's the first look from our Beaute Speciale Artist Laine Smart. This is a stand out look that will make heads turn.

With all the statement peices out there now, from jewelry to jackets, the freshest way to make a statement is with eyeliner! This trend is all over the red carpet, with everyone from Rhianna to Leighton Meester, as well as the runways, being spotted at shows from L.A.M.B to Jason Wu, in different variations. That is what makes this look so fun, its so customizable! You can get creative with it. Whatever color you prefer can be used to create this look. It can be a thin flash of color at the lash line, a thicker winged out liner, dropped liner, etc...just depending on how classic, trendy, or dramatic you want to make it. The key to making this look current is combining it with a warm, glowing, neutral face and soft peachy lips. This will keep your look chic, fresh, and clean, allowing your eyes to take the spotlight. This look is sure to make you stand out and shine for any holiday occasion you have coming up.
