This Holiday season, the runways were filled with a sense of renewed excitement and creativity giving us fresh new ideas and an array of reimagined looks, from metallic lids to bold and playful pouts, color splashes, glitter and skincare routines to illuminate and achieve the ultimate holiday glow.

Inspired by the allure of all the holiday sweets, I wanted to create a look that felt playful and bursting with color! Start by choosing three complimentary colors of eyeshadow. Apply each shadow in a different section of the eye from the inner corner all the way over to the cheekbone. Begin blending each shadow in light layers to get a watercolor effect. Continue adding more eyeshadow where you want to intensify the color for more depth. Finish the look with a lip color 2 shades brighter than your natural color. This look is pure joy!

For this look I was inspired by the joy of the holiday season. I used shades of rose golds and bronzes on the eyes and finished with a subtle but confident wing liner. On the cheeks and lips I used earthy pink tones and topped the lips off with a high shine gloss. The finished look is joyful and bright!
