Get That Glamorous Look This Holiday Season

Newtown Square Friends & Neighbors, November 2023

Creating holiday glamour for your look is all about adding a touch of sparkle, sophistication, and festive touches. Here are some tips and ideas to help you achieve that holiday glam:

Makeup

Sparkling Eyes
Consider a shimmery eyeshadow palette with festive colors like gold and silver. Apply a metallic or glittery eyeshadow on your eyelids for that extra sparkle. Don’t forget to define your brows, as well-groomed brows can frame your face beautifully.

Eyeliner and Mascara
Winged eyeliner can add drama to your eyes. Use a volumizing mascara to make your lashes pop.

Bold Lips
Go for a classic red or a deep burgundy lipstick for a bold, festive look. Ensure your lipstick is long-lasting to survive holiday parties and dinners.

Highlight and Contour
Use a highlighter on the high points of your face to create a radiant glow. Contour your cheekbones and jawline for added definition.

Setting Spray
Finish your makeup with a setting spray to keep it in place throughout the festivities.

Hair

Curls and Waves
Loose curls or soft waves can give your hair a glamorous, holiday-ready look. You can achieve this with a curling iron or flat iron.

Updo Styles
Elegant updos like a classic bun, chignon or French twist can instantly elevate your look. Add decorative pins or accessories for a festive touch.

Braids
Intricate braids, such as a fishtail or waterfall braid, can add a romantic and playful element to your hairstyle.

Hair Accessories
Consider using hairpins, tiaras, or headbands adorned with gems or sequins to add a touch of glamour.

Hair Extensions
If you want to add length or volume to your hair, clip-in extensions can be a quick and effective solution.

Shine and Hold
Use a high-quality hairspray or shine serum to keep your hair in place and add extra shine.

Hair Color
Experiment with temporary hair color sprays or chalks for a fun and festive look without the commitment.

Remember to tryout your hair and makeup look before holiday events to ensure you feel confident and comfortable with the final result. With the right makeup and hairstyling, you’ll be ready to shine and spread holiday cheer wherever you go.
