I used to think glittery polishes were oh-so-80′s, but then when I kept thinking about how I wanted to do my nails for Christmas visions of blinging glittery nails popped in my head. I didn’t want to do the traditional classic red or reach for my deep purple shades. All I knew was that I wanted to do something a little different, a little edgy. I went to all the stores on the hunt for a glittery polish and what do you know, all but one store was sold out! Guess I wasn’t the only one who wanted a little … Continue reading →

It’s the final countdown! Only 3 more days left until Christmas! I’m hoping by now you have lots of beauty looks to choose from for your big Christmas party. This next look is both edgy and sexy for the holiday season. Take the classic smokey eye and add a metallic finish for a new twist. Silver smokey eyes look great on just about everyone. This sultry look is actually really easy to do. In the beginning, smokey eyes can be really messy. I like to prep the eyes first and save the foundation for last. Be sure to prep your … Continue reading →

This is radiant, glowing skin done right. With the holidays comes drier weather and often times your skin can look like it has been zapped of all its moisture. Adding a gorgeous luminizer in key areas of the face can make all the difference. I think Camilla Belle’s luminous look is perfection. I’ve seen some people that just go overboard with the shimmer and look more sweaty than radiant. If you plan on taking lots of photos during the holidays, an overly shiny face will be very noticeable. If you have drier skin, you can afford to mix a liquid … Continue reading →

Have you ever wondered why women in movies or on TV (some in real life) flutter their eyes to grab the attention of that special someone? The flutter of the lashes are an invitation to her world. Want to be the focus at every holiday gathering? Go big, go bold with your lashes. If you weren’t born with naturally long and lush lashes, do not fear because the beauty market is saturated with products just for your lashes. Curl them, apply your most volumizing and lengthening mascara, apply some falsies, or look into lash enhancing treatments which I have a … Continue reading →

I love the holidays because colours around this time are so rich and decadent. You’ll notice a lot of colours dominating shadow palettes this season are jewel tones in blue, purple, gold, and emerald. If you’re still on the fence about wearing colour on the eyes, just go with it and have fun! The key to working jewel tones is to stick to a shade that compliments and enhances your eye colour. Once you see how much the complimentary shade brings out your eyes, the less uncomfortable you’ll feel wearing colour on the eyes. Brown Eyes can pretty much wear … Continue reading →

Believe it or not, buns are actually very easy to do. Doing a quick bun can help make any outfit look even more glamorous and fun especially when you add a sparkly hair clip. Buns in general are making a comeback so whether you’re doing a classic chignon, ballerina bun, or french twist there are many ways to make it look modern and festive. Some women hate having their hair pulled back (myself included) which is why a side bun is a great way to show off some hair while keeping it off the face. To keep it from looking … Continue reading →

The holiday season is a fun time for trends so don’t be afraid to try something new. If the idea of colour on your face seems too drastic, why not try colour on your nails? If you’ve done the reds and golds on the nails, royal shimmering purples is a fun alternative! There are many purples to choose from this season so you’ll be sure to find one that you’ll love.
