Preparing your face for festive makeup
As with regular makeup, you need to prepare your skin for the holiday. Use proven products - mask, scrub, peeling should not cause irritation and redness of delicate skin. It is for this reason that you should not experiment with new "miraculous" means, and what if they will cause the opposite effect?
On cleansed skin of the face and eyelids, 20 minutes before makeup, you need to apply a light moisturizer, and, if possible, relax a little, sit with your eyes closed, imagining how wonderful you will look in a few hours.
Brows and makeup base
The ideal option is to do eyebrow correction and coloring in the salon a day or two before the holiday, if you do the eyebrow shape yourself, then it is also better to do this the day before. Today you can shade your eyebrows a little with a gray or brown pencil, comb them.
On the face, apply foundation, powder, concealer under the eyes - everything that you use in regular daytime makeup. If your skin does not need additional correction, simply go over your nose, forehead, temples and chin with a powder puff.
Eye makeup
When choosing shadows for festive eye makeup, give preference to persistent options, because the make-up should hold and look worthy for a long time. Choose matte or pearlescent shadows - it's up to you, you just need to take into account the color of the eyes. For blue-eyed fairies, cool lilac, purple and unusual yellow and saffron colors are suitable. Gray eyes perfectly accentuate the shadows of pearl or silver colors. Witch greens go well with the color of chocolate, peach, gold, copper and lavender. And the owners of brown eyes can afford green, gold, beige, almost all shades of brown, as well as a metallic sheen.
Bright, neatly drawn arrows suit everyone, this is a great and win-win option for festive makeup. Pencil or liquid eyeliner - it doesn't matter, if you powder your eyelids a little before applying the arrow, the arrows will last longer.
Smoky ice is applied in several steps, for this you need a pencil, shadows of the selected shade and a special brush. Draw neat arrows along the edge of the upper and lower eyelids with a pencil, connect them at the outer corner of the eye. Apply shadows on top to the outer corner of the eye and blend with a brush. Repeat the pencil-shade-brush process several times until you get the desired effect.
The rules of festive eye make-up do not differ from the rules of daytime - the shades of the lightest shade are applied first, then the color intensity increases.
Eyelashes are colored last, it is better to choose waterproof mascara, you can use false eyelashes. It is necessary to start coloring from the middle upper eyelashes, evenly painting over them in zigzag movements, then pulling from top to bottom. If a second coat of mascara is needed, the first must dry completely. The lower eyelashes are dyed in one layer, not forgetting about the eyelashes in the outer corner of the eye. Comb your eyelashes with a special comb and - your eyes shine, they are ready for the holiday.

With the current abundance of persistent lipsticks, choosing the right one will not be difficult, but maybe giving the palm to light shine and calm shades? Gentle, non-aggressive lips will attract much more admiring glances. Draw the line of the lips with a pencil, apply a small amount of gloss, spread over the upper lip, close the lips so that the upper one is imprinted on the lower one, correct with the fingertips.
Pull your lips in, apply a little blush or bronzing powder on the prominent cheekbones. If the hairstyle is high, then the blush can be applied to the earlobes. Admire yourself in the mirror - beautiful!
