With Halloween and Guy Fawkes Day in the rearview mirror, it’s time for the Festive Season to steal the spotlight. Bring on the mulled wine, cheese platters, and endless parties! But remember, it’s not a sprint; it’s a marathon. To ace this season’s festivities, you need a beauty plan that’ll turn you into the life of the party.
Get ready to slay with our step-by-step guide. From skincare to makeup, we’ve got the 411 on looking fly this party season.
Step 1: Prepping Your Skin
Having flawless, radiant skin is a must for looking incredible during the festive season. To begin your journey to a glowing complexion, start your festive countdown with a boost of natural marine collagen from Vida Glow. This trial pack not only improves your skin’s elasticity and hydration but also provides the perfect base for makeup application. For that perfect lit-from-within glow, even during the winter months, reach for James Read’s Glow 20 Facial Tan Serum, applying a small amount for a subtle radiance. To keep your skin looking fresh and rejuvenated throughout the day, follow up with Pixi’s Rose Tonic. If you’re worried about under-eye bags after a night of festivities (wine, anyone?), Shiseido’s firming eye masks have got you covered, leaving you looking refreshed and rejuvenated. Finally, ensure your skin stays well-hydrated throughout the celebrations with Purito’s Deep Sea Pure Water Cream, the key to maintaining a radiant complexion during the festive season.
Step 2: Hair and Body
Your hair is your crowning glory, and it can be a game-changer in your overall appearance, depending on the event. Whether you opt for an elegant updo, flowing curls, or sleek straight hair, healthy hair is the key. It all begins with a clean scalp, and BOUCLÈME’s exfoliating shampoo is your go-to to remove buildup, ensuring your hair looks its best during the party season. But the magic doesn’t stop there. To prep your hair for any imaginable hairstyle, grab John Frieda’s heat-protecting spray designed for frizz-prone hair. This spray keeps your locks smooth and manageable, even in the most humid weather, ensuring your hairstyle remains on point. Before you dive into styling, nourish your hair with Wella’s Oil-Infused Lotion Spray, offering a smooth and healthy-looking finish that’s bound to turn heads.
While your hair is undoubtedly a showstopper, don’t forget to give your body some love too. With Garnier’s Body Superfood lotion enriched with avocado and omega 6, your skin will be soft and supple, adding to your overall radiant appearance.
Step 3: Makeup
Your makeup should resonate with the festive spirit, allowing you to go all out with bold lip colours, smoky eyes, or shimmering eyelids. Let’s start with the base – achieving a flawless foundation or even applying tinted moisturiser becomes a breeze with Spectrum Collections’ Luxe Flat Foundation Brush. This brush not only guarantees perfection but also adds a touch of elegance to your makeup routine with its stylish white marble design. To add a touch of warmth and make you look like a bronze goddess even during the moody winters of England, consider using XX Revolution’s Bronzer Powder in Vignette.
For those who want to make a statement, a bold lip is an absolute must during the festive season. Prepare your lips for a perfect, smooth application with Avant’s Velvet Perfecting Rose Sugar Lip Scrub. To ensure your festive lip colour stays put without any ‘bleeding,’ define and enhance your lips with Delilah’s Lip Line Long Wear Pencil in the shade Naked. It’s the perfect base for any bold lip choice. If you’re looking for something a bit more understated than your regular red lip but still want to make a statement, try 3INA’s The Longwear Lipstick in shade 254. Trust us, you won’t regret it.
To complete your party look with stunning lashes that add drama and depth to your eyes, consider using the Eye Candy Extension Collection Hybrid lashes. These lashes are the perfect finishing touch to elevate your overall appearance during the festivities.
Step 4: Finishing Touches
In the realm of finishing touches, every detail matters, ensuring your overall look is seamless and polished. Don’t overlook the importance of pampering your nails to achieve a look that perfectly complements your outfit. Begin by applying the Protein Formula’s nail treatment, a crucial step that ensures your nails are strong and healthy, creating the ideal foundation for your manicure.
And to infuse a festive pop of colour, there’s no better choice than Manucurist’s Green Nail Polish in the enchanting shade of Hollyhock. This rich and vibrant hue adds a touch of glamour to your overall appearance, completing your party-ready look with a flourish of style and sophistication.
