Hey dolls,

Although Christmas is the most magical time of the year ✨ most of us forget to take a little time to get glam for the holidays. Take some time out to pamper yourself this year, you deserve it!

Here's 25 look ideas for this Christmas holiday!

HOLIDAY PARTY EYES

This spotlight 'halo' eye makeup look features a traditional Christmas color palette. The peek-a-boo red adds to the holiday look without it being overwhelming. Step by step tutorial here.

LILAC GLAM

If you're looking to glam up this holiday season but need a more subdued color palette, check out this smokey lilac tutorial! Plus, pastels are totally trending for winter!

RED LIPS

The classic pinup makeup look - barely there eyeshadow, winged liner and red lips. Timeless.

GILDED GOLD

One of our fave ways to glam things up - just add a bit of sparkle (okay, a lot)! For that extra wow factor, pair your glittery look with winged liner and lashes for major party mode vibes.

FESTIVE HOLIDAY LOOK

Spotlight 'halo' eyes in green with silver glitter and burgundy on the lower lashline.  Keeping the holiday color palette in tones that are more wearable.

PLUM AND SILVER TONES

This next look is all about the eyeliner . The muted plum on the lids is the perfect shade that's right on point with that metallic silver liner, without it taking away from the look. The liner is festive yet in a wearable way. Step by step how-to here.

RED DESIRE

This modern vintage pinup makeup look features a soft cut crease and classic red lips. The bottom lash has major Twiggy vibes but if you're looking for less drama - skip this step.

GREEN GLITTER HOLIDAY PARTY MAKEUP

If you need color this holiday, go all out with green or turquoise glitter on the lids! Remember to keep the lower lashline minimal and pair with a muted red lip to keep the traditional color palette. This would look great with a neutral ensemble or a lbd.

BLACK & GOLD GLAM

We're obsessed with gold + metallics especially this time of the year! For badass statement eyes, pair metallic gold with a dark cut crease! Get this look with the step by step tutorial.

ELECTRIC TOASTED

This warm color palette is all about the wearable glam in neutral tones. Get the look here.

HOLIDAY GLAM

Smokey eye with an illuminated lid paired with a dusty mauve lip. Video tutorial here.

RED EYESHADOW

Most people are terrified of placing red hues anywhere near the eyes for the fear of looking sick. When applied correctly, it can actually look quite pretty.  Try pairing matte neutrals in the crease and keep the red lid color below the crease for optimal impact. Keep everything else neutral.

HOLIDAY CHARM

Versatility is always a good thing when it comes to makeup, especially during the holidays. This makeup look will go with just about everything. Click for the step by step tutorial here.

NEW YEAR'S EVE

If you need statement eyes this season, then take a peek at this silvery look. The dramatic cut crease emphasizes the glitter and the winged liner is some eyeliner goals right there! For a look like this, you're going to need some falsies!

CHRISTMAS SPECIAL

Muted red in burgundy tones and green glitter on the lashline - a traditional color palette in a modern application. The lighter shade on the lids really illuminates the eyes and makes the look more appealing rather than just a flat single shade on the lids.

GLITTER EYES AND RED LIPS

Warm neutrals on the lids with silver glitter in the center for a soft glam look paired with white liner for a bright eyed effect.  Not your usual holiday eye makeup but paired with a matte red lip - instantly festive! 

HOLIDAY GLAM

This cranberry look is a full glam holiday look! Perfectly shaped brows, winged liner, flared lashes and glossy lips! Cranberry is great if you don't want to go for red or burgundy as this warmer shade is more wearable and flattering on most skin tones. 

GLITTERY CHAMPAGNE EYES

Forget gold and silver tones - champagne is the new, modern day glam. This perfectly contoured lid accentuates the eyes with just the right amount of product and the glitter on the lid is just perfection! A tiny amount of metallic gold on the lower lashline keeps the festive vibe going and beautifully ties the look together. Get the look here.

CLASSIC RED LIPS

Keeping it simple - rose gold on the lids and a greyish blue soft cut crease. The focal point is the classic red lip.

GREEN AND GOLD SPARKLES

Smokey green eye makeup paired with metallic gold liner - an easy way to keep the traditional color palette going. 

RED

When in doubt, take inspiration from classic beauty trends. This modern day pinup look is festive, feminine and fun!
