MAKEUP IDEAS FOR NEW YEARS EVE!

I've already given you plenty of ideas for holiday beauty this season — including alternative takes on glitter, last minute updos, and pulling it all off with only a few products in your bathroom. Yep, we've covered all your bases. So, what could possibly be left?

New Year's Eve makeup is  usually a festive party look, yes, but remember these are also your very first hair and makeup decisions of 2016.

In hopes of starting next year off on the right foot,  here are hot ideas that are sure to make the ball drop. Scroll down for full step-by-steps, and get ready to have a very beautiful 2015 night out.

The first step is to do a pencil liner — thick at the end, and then taper in. Make sure to lay the liner down flat, and don't hold it perpendicular. This way, you get more surface painted, and it takes a cat-eye shape. Run that inside the rim of the lower lid and under the lower lashes. Then, smudge the whole thing with a brush so it looks more diffused.

Now, apply a little bit of concealer to the first half of the eyelid, (ex: near the tear duct) where the eyeliner isn't,Then, apply your pop color. The concealer will amplify whatever pigment lays on top, so it goes on more powerful.  Use Grease Paints for this step, and then layer that with a matching glitter eye shadow. TIP: For the shadows, I recommend using a sponge-tip applicator, because it grabs the pigment better and allows you to apply it precisely. You don't want it to blend too much — the drama is in the contrast. Finish with mascara on top and bottom.

After, shade just under the cheekbones with a little bit of bronzer. And then, add a little bit of blush in a warm apricot-pink shade called Flirt. It adds a bit of sweetness to the look, just on the apple of the cheek.
