- Long-lasting base. Family evenings, let alone parties with friends, go on until dawn on these dates and the last thing we want is for our base to disappear after a few hours. It is best to choose a long-lasting one that remains intact.
- Your best friend is the illuminator. Nobody escapes that Christmas is to shine and that is when we can allow ourselves more excesses with makeup. The illuminator is a great ally to create luminous looks that give the feeling of healthy skin.
- Make your eyes the center of attention. To do this, line them with a shade darker than your irises, apply a silver or gold shadow in the center of the eyelid and tear so they have more light and apply a mascara that opens them .
- Flawless lips. This season the most popular lipsticks are matte so to make it easier for you and make them look great, choose formulas that are moisturizing and also in pencil format.
- The blush you need. Choose blushes in pink tones that are the ones that give the most a feeling of health and youth in the face and apply them in the center of the cheekbone, do not extend it towards the temples, which does not favor anyone.
- Don't neglect your nails . Our hands are important so we must not neglect the manicure. To save yourself trouble, apply glitter polishes. If they flake, it is less noticeable and you can make adjustments that are imperceptible without having to repeat all your nails as it happens with normal colors.
