New Year's Eve Makeup Ideas

New Year’s Eve Makeup Ideas

This year wasn’t perfect for most of us, but makeup should be! Maybe you just want to put on your pajamas and sleep through New Year’s Eve – but don’t. It is the perfect time to celebrate the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021. Virtual parties, the socially distant drinks, and a lot of time for play with a bunch of different New Year’s Eve makeup ideas, right?

A Classic Makeup

If you don’t like to experiment, the cat eye is a timeless makeup look that complements all eye colors and shapes. The key to perfecting the winged liner look is finding a great eyeliner that glides on smoothly. Of curse, mascara is always a secret weapon. For a sexy, smoky effect, try smudging the pencil liner. You can have fun with smudging, especially if you’re young. But, the more mature you are, you’ll want to minimize how much smoke you’re doing at the bottom. And if using black under the eyes feels too harsh, try this trick of using a dark brown color underneath the eyes instead.

Halo Eye Makeup Look

Did you notice that halo eye makeup trend is popping up everywhere? This attractive eye makeup technique uses bright and dark shades to create a halo-like effect around the eyes and give them a glowing appearance. To get the look, put one, shimmering shade in the middle of both your upper and lower lid, surrounded by a contrasting color on each side to create a halo effect. The halo eye makeup is a perfect choice to make your eyes appear bigger.

New Year’s Eve Makeup Ideas: Sparkle & Shine

Glitter for the holidays? Yes, please! While glitter might not be something you utilize every day when applying your eye makeup, try something new just for the fun of it. Be careful: Glitter has a tendency to get everywhere, and the wrong product can end up all over your cheeks instead of on your eyes, creating one big, sparkly mess. Glitter eyeshadows should be ultra-pigmented, high-sparkle, long-wearing, and of course, fallout-free.

Pro tip: Use eyeshadow primer!

New Year’s Eve Makeup Ideas: Red Lips and Long Lashes

Red lipstick doesn’t really need anything else. That’s the beauty behind a statement look. But if you are looking for a balance – long lashes are the perfect match! Whether it’s the work of a volumizing, lengthening mascara or a great set of falsies, we all love big lashes! To keep the look feeling modern, look for a red lipstick with a semi-matte finish (instead of a high-shine finish).

 

 

New Year’s Eve Makeup Ideas: Black Smokey Eyes

Smokey eyes are renowned as a gorgeous nighttime makeup look. This eye makeup style is generally considered to be formal and elegant. Want to master the art of sexy smolder but worry that you might end up being more raccoon than raunchy? All you need to remember is to blend to get that shadowing effect that can just nail the look. And to put one by one layer of eyeshadow. Pair it with nude lipstick.

 

While you are preparing for the craziest night, check makeup trends in 2021. I hope they’ll be useful!
