I know Christmas is what we’re probably looking forward to the most, but New Years Eve is a big occasion too right? So. I have here a New Years Eve Makeup Look I would happily rock on the faithful night. I went for a subtle glittery eye with a matte pink lip. I think this combo would work for any night out not just New Years but it’s nice to have an excuse 🙂

Base, brows and eyeshadow primer dunzo!

I grabbed the shade Stark to begin and added a wash of it to my crease just to makeup everything blend better on my lids.

To deepen the crease colour more I took some Anaheim and blended that over top.

To conceal any discolouration on the brow bone and lighten it, I applied some Skimp. It has a little bit of sheen to it but nothing too crazy.

Punk is one of my favourite colours in the palette.

And then some more blending happened 🙂

I applied a really small amount of Duraline onto my eyelids (I have a full blogpost on Duraline here).

I pulled out Makeup Geek’s pigment in New Years Eve for a bit of festive sparkle and because it’s aptly named for a New Years Eve Makeup look 🙂

I used the colour Blackout, from the Gwen Stefani Palette to line my lash line because lashes have to happen…it’s New Years Eve Makeup. 🙂

I chose Ardell Demi 120 false lashes, I like that they flare out on the outer corners.

To hide the false lash band a bit more, I applied a line of liquid liner across them.

I concealed and then went onto the lower lash line. I added some of the Punk shade on the outer end of my eyes, the same as the top lid.

And then some Baby on the inner part.

Mascara time then.

I wanted to darken things up a little more so I tight lined with some black liner.

For some inner corner brightness, I used the shade Pop.

I wanted to go with a somewhat strong pink lip. I lined my lips first with Nyx Lip Pencil in Pinky.

I chose one of my favourite lip products the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in the colour Ole Flamingo.

I did some loose curls in my hair for the occasion and then we’re done 🙂
