The Modernized ’60s Holiday Glam Look Defining the Season

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

60s glam is officially the holiday must-try. Sergio gave Becky G a full throwback moment—blurred matte skin, a soft yet defined cut crease, and pillowy lips that feel modern and effortless. Styled with faux-fur coats or sequined minis, this is the kind of festive look that turns heads. And don’t worry—recreating it at home is easier than it looks. We’ve got the step-by-step breakdown right here.

Base
Start with a pore-smoothing primer, such as Iconic London Velvet Smooth, for a soft, airbrushed canvas effect. Blend a mattifying foundation from the center outward, then brighten and conceal under the eyes and on any spots. Lightly set the T-zone with powder, and add warmth with bronzer along the edges of your face. For a true ’60s flush, layer a liquid blush and top it with a matching powder—rosy, lifted, and totally photo-ready.

Eyes
Start by shaping and softly filling in your brows—they should look defined but effortless. Prime your lids with concealer, using any leftover to tidy up the brow edges. Sweep a neutral shade all over the lid, then blend a deeper brown into the crease for gentle dimension. Lighten just below the crease with a soft shade, and deepen the outer corner with smoky gray. For that iconic ’60s cut crease, use a small brush and concealer to define the inner half of the lid—take your time, it’s worth it. Set everything with a touch of white shadow, draw a subtle wing with black shadow, then layer on liquid liner for extra impact. Finish with a waterproof liner on the lower waterline and generous mascara on top and bottom lashes for a polished, show-stopping look.

Lips

Line your lips with a brown-pink liner, slightly overlining for a plumping look. Fill in the center with a warm neutral pink lipstick to create a soft gradient, and top everything off with a setting spray to keep everything in place.

This ’60s glam moment is retro sophistication at its finest!

The Viral Slavic Girl Makeup Is Perfect For The Holidays

Published on by Lee2 Comments

With Katya Lel’s Russian pop song comeback on TikTok and winter sets, it’s no surprise that the beauty community has gravitated toward Slavic Girl makeup. Creators are donning their best faux-fur hats and coats, channeling their inner Slavic goddess. This everyday glam makeup coincides opportunistically with our social calendars rapidly filling with holiday soirées. Whether going all out or keeping it casual, Slavic girl makeup is the perfect choice to enhance your natural beauty.

Before diving into the makeup magic, start with a clean canvas. First, apply your winter skincare, then create a flawless base using a brightening concealer on the highest points of your face. Applying a brightening concealer to the high points of your face—under the eyes, along the bridge of your nose, on your forehead, and above your cupid’s bow will not only conceal but also accentuate, setting the stage for a sculpted and snatched appearance. Follow with a liquid foundation for a seamless, natural complexion. From there, use your favorite cream bronzer to create chiseled cheekbones and enhance your facial features. Like the “I’m Cold” trend, the Slavic Girl makeup emphasizes rosy cheeks. Opt for a rosy blush and add to the apples of the cheeks while blending upwards towards the temples for a youthful and radiant effect. Remember, the key is to look like you’ve just stepped in from the chilly winter air.

Another distinctive element of Slavic girl makeup centers around the eyes. Begin by employing a deep black pencil eyeliner to craft a bold wing, then use a brush to soften the line, creating a defined outline around the outer corner of the eye. Apply a shimmery silver eyeshadow to the lid using a clean finger. Extend the impact by lining your bottom waterline with the same eyeliner and then form an inner corner triangle. Complete the look by applying mascara to lengthen and curl your eyelashes.

For lips that are as sweet as the viral sensation itself, go for a pouty pink shade. Whether it’s a glossy finish or a cherry lip tint, the goal is to evoke the playful spirit of the ‘Slavic Girl.’ Outline your lips with Kind Words Lip Liner Strong – rich chocolate for definition, then fill in with Charlotte Tilbury Matte Beauty Blush Wand Dream Pop – matte cherry-pink, adding a touch of Dior Lip Glow Oil Rosewood – rosewood for that extra dose of allure.

And there you have it – the key to unlocking the viral ‘Slavic Girl’ aesthetic that has taken social media by storm. Whether you’re singing along to ‘My Marmalade’ or simply enjoying the winter vibes, this make-up is bound to make you the star.

Hailey Bieber Debuts Sugar Plum Fairy Makeup For The Holidays

Published on by LeeLeave a comment

Hailey Bieber has made a name for herself in the beauty industry these past few years. Not only are the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment products on top of everyone’s stocking stuffer wish list this year, but she continually paves the way with new makeup trends. Earlier this year, her strawberry makeup took the world by storm, and people were piling on the blush to mimic her look. Bieber shared her Sugar Plum Fairy makeup look in a recent TikTok, explaining the origin of her inspiration beside the famous candy. Hailey said, When I was 16, I was the Sugar Plum Fairy in The Nutcracker. This is my 2023 version. Here’s how to achieve the same look for your next Christmas party.

She starts by concealing under her eyes to mask any darkness. From there, she immediately delves into blush. While she is most likely using unreleased products from Rhode, any light bubblegum pink will provide the same results. Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Soft Pinch Liquid – dewy cool pink and MAKEUP BY MARIO Soft Pop Powder Blush Poppy Pink – vibrant pink makes wonderful choices for this look. Like the strawberry makeup, the sugar plum fairy makeup is blush-heavy, so don’t be afraid to pack on the pigment while extending upwards to the top of the cheekbones. Bieber also uses the same blush on her eyelids and even goes so far as blending her “eyeshadow” and blush together. She adds a touch of sparkle by using her finger to apply a combination of a soft pearl eyeshadow and a glossy gel. The same product is used as a highlighter on her cheekbones and nose. 

To add to the charm of the sugar plum fairy makeup, she creates a few faux freckles towards the top of her nose. To bring the look together, a brown lip liner or Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez’s Kind Words Lip Liner Gifted – deep dusty plum is added and smudged using the tips of her fingers. Of course, the look wouldn’t be complete without the Rhode Peptide Lip Treatment in the new, limited-edition “jellybean” shade. As a final touch, she swipes on mascara and calls it a day.

As we gear up in our most dazzling metallic ensembles for holiday soirées, our makeup game deserves to match the festive fervor. Embracing extravagance is the holiday spirit we’re channeling, especially when glamming up. Picture this: a shimmery holiday makeup look that sparkles but ensures you glow from the inside out.

Eyes

One of the best ways to radiate brilliance is with your eye makeup. Tailor your look effortlessly, whether you lean towards a subdued shimmer or crave a bolder statement. Begin with a liquid or cream base to act as the initial luminosity layer. While this alone can create a stunning effect, elevating your style is easily achieved by introducing a glittery topper. By far, the Urban Decay 24/7 Moondust eyeshadows boast an exceptional shimmer pigment that encapsulates the essence of the holiday spirit like no other.

Face

No shimmery holiday makeup can be complete without a reflective highlighter to enhance your facial features. Like the eyes, pays off to lay the groundwork with a glittery base such as the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter or the Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation. Once it’s time to apply highlighter, focus on the highest points of your face. Rare Beauty Positive Light Highlighter is highly effective, but if you prefer a power formula, you can’t go wrong with Haus Labs Highlighter.

Lips

We are not done just yet. Round out your festive makeup with a shimmery lip. After applying your lipstick color of choice, use a high-shine gloss for a juicy pout. The Gisou Honey Infused Lip Oil is one of the best investments as it layers beautifully on any shade and has a bold shimmer finish.
