Beaute-ful Holiday Looks No. 2

As we continue to give you looks to try this holiday season here's a fun and funky look that will make heads turn. Our Beaute Speciale artist Alexie has styled the look from head to toe making sure you start the new year stylish.


The Smokey Eye is one of the most popular makeup looks created and worn by celebrities. It allows for a mysteriously sexy look and is great for evening makeup. I have created my look based off the Smokey eye with a touch of color. You can do a Smokey eye with any deep colors you choose as long as you have the basic black and grey colors in there too. I chose to do a midnight blue color scheme inspired by New Years Eve. This royal blue color is really in for this season from clothes, shoes and makeup on the runway, it’s everywhere. Start the New Year with a stylish affair!

 [ Step-by-Step to get this Look ]

Foundation:

Lancôme Tient Idole 14 hour wear foundation buffed on the skin for a nice even finish.

Lancôme Dual Finish pressed powder applied with a blush brush for a nice light smooth coverage.

Lancôme Bronze Soleil bronzer dusted on the cheek bones, center of your nose, corners of forehead and chin.  

Eyes:

Urban Decay Eye shadow Primer Potion in Champagne shimmer. This neutralizes the skin tone on your eyes and makes the eye shadow last longer.

Maybelline New York Color Plush Eye Shadow in Sapphire Siren which was featured in Cosmopolitan Magazine November 2010.

1.       Sweep the white shade from brow bone to the lash line to highlight the eye.

2.       Using the blue green shade to emphasize sweep from the eye’s inner corner to the center of your lid.

3.       To intensify your look use the dark blue color on the palette from the center of your eye to the outer corner and the bottom lash line.

4.       Last to add drama use the black eye shadow in a “V (<)” shape at the outer corner of your eye.

Urban Decay 24/7 glide on eye liner in bold blue along the top and bottom lash lines and Metallic White on the water line (the white eye liner opens up the eye).

Choose your favorite mascara and apply 2 coats for a more dramatic appearance.

Lips:

Lancôme Color Design Lipstick in Pale Lip

Le Lipstique Sheer Lip Liner in Natural Mauve.

You can add a shimmer or clear gloss in the center of your lips to create a luscious pout.
