The cool breeze and the holiday spirit. Can you feel it? I love anything associated with winter and Christmas. I may be biased because I was born in the winter, but Winter is my favorite season. All that layering of clothes, cute beanies, jackets and boots—thinking about it makes me want to dress up and go out! And when it comes to makeup, I can’t wait for winter to hit so that I can bring out those dark lipsticks. I’m a complete sucker for winter makeup looks. Let me give you a rundown on the makeup looks to opt for this winter.

Have a party around the corner? Go all out on the lips. You can never go wrong with this one during the holiday season. Bright red is a classic one and people usually associate red with Christmas, so that works out well. Deeper shades of red are also fantastic for this time of the year.

Summers were all about the corals and oranges. Winter, however, is all about the pinks, brown or mauve; at least when it comes to blushes. The cold season means, not too much sun or heat. Adding a pop of pink color to the cheeks will totally complete your look!
