1. Avoid frosted or shimmery shadows if you have fine lines around your eyes. The shimmer highlights the fine lines rather than masking them. Instead use matte shadows which blend into your skin and camouflage fine lines.2. It wouldn’t be the holidays without a little glitter so add it to your cheeks instead of your eyes. Glimmery highlighters make you look positively luminescent! A pinky-gold powdered version flatters most skin tones and is easy to apply. Brush it on your cheekbones and under your brow bone for subtle radiance.

3. The whole idea is balance. Your face has basically three areas to emphasize: eyes, lips, and cheeks. You never want to be full tilt in all three areas at once.

4. A lip plumper gives your mouth a little extra volume that lasts for a few hours- long enough to get you through the party!

5. After applying your evening lip stick, add a smudge of pretty gloss over top for extra shine.
