Merry Christmas Eve! And happy Monday? I’ve already forgotten what day it is. More eggnog!
I’ve teamed up with one of my best gal pals to bring you 3 Easy Makeup Looks for the Holidays – a light and sparkly daytime look, evening glam, and a bold lip for New Year’s. All of these looks were created by my friend Danielle, a professional makeup artist and photographer. Make sure to check our her Instagram pages here and here.
(Side note – we’ve used false lashes in each look, but they are totally not necessary.)
