Moving into the HOLIDAY month of December, I think of sparkle and fun! In that spirit, I want to give you a couple of tips of how best to achieve an over the top Glitter LIP look that will knock your socks off and be the RAVE at this year's holiday party!
Pat McGrath, one of the top makeup artists of our time, created this bold look on the runways last season and the makeup world hasn't been the same since!! This “glitter-palooza” inspired look starts with :
A creamy or satin, finish lipstick.
A clear gloss.
Loose glitter.
***For any loose glitter that falls on your face, an easy clean up idea is to get a piece of scotch tape and just dab on fallen glitter to pick up.
Get as creative as you wish with the color of lipstick vs. the color of glitter, but I would suggest applying a similar or complimentary color lipstick as the glitter.
First apply the lipstick as you would normally. Then, with a drop of clear lip-gloss on your fingertip, dip into glitter and apply to your lips. Any areas left on your lips needing to be filled in, delicately use a lip brush and dab.
Pair this GLAM lip look with a graphic eye or cat eye made with our Liquid Liners and December Strip Lashes and you WILL be the Chic-est of the bunch!
