HOLIDAY PARTY MAKEUP IDEAS

WHAT'S TRENIDING NOW AND INTO THE NEW YEAR!

2017-2018

PRO- TIPS

THE YEAR OF THE HIGHLIGHT

Trending this holiday season and into the next year is a natural dewy, glowing, radiant, luminescent skin . A complexion that looks “lit from within,” is the status quo these days, both in the makeup world and social media platform. Just like the makeup world exploded with the sculpted/chiseled contoured face a few years back, the opposite has taken over the scene with highlighting. Highlighting products have improved tremendously over the past two years not only with the quality of the products, but with the range of shades and colors. Trending this season is luminous "gold highlights".

Along with glowing skin, here are some fun makeup looks to try for all your holiday parties!

sparkle and glitter 5 SILVER AND GOLD Â EYE LINER AND EYE SHADOW IDEAS

Add a thin line of gold glitter or metallic eye liner/ shadow above a black liquid liner.

Tight line the upper lid with a black eye pencil and add a gold eyeline.shadow to the upper lash line.

Add a silver glitter or metallic line above a winged black liner.

Create a winged line on the upper lid with a black liquid liner. Add a bit of sparkle below the lid with a glitter or metallic liner/shadow.

Add some sparkle all over the eye lid after a contoured eye shadow application.

Pro-Tip: Make sure that the eyelids are primed before applying your eye shadow. Use a cosmetic glitter adhesive on the lid before pressing on a glitter eye shadow. Glitter lids look best with a nude lip, but can be worn with a bold lipstick for more of a statement look.

Rounded Cat Liner A WHOLE NEW SHAPE

The rounded winged eyeliner is like the low-key version of cat eyes, and it takes less skill since you don't have to worry about getting it super precise and sharp. This is considered a graphic liner, so pair it with a nude lip and let the focus be on the eyes.

Dotted Liner GRAPHIC LINER

Simple, but elegant, the dotted liner has become popular in the world of fashion and now with celebrities. This liner trend is a fun way of mixing up makeup and dots to draw attention to the eyes in a new way. The dotted liner is a way of adding texture to your look in a nontraditional way and is more daring than a classic liner. It can be worn as bold or as discreet as you'd like.

The New Flush STATEMENT BLUSH

This trend has been slowly creeping in over the past year. It's the same way people wore their blush in the early 1980s - swept high across the cheekbones. To keep the look from looking too costume-y, keep your skin fresh and glowy. Warm the blush into your skin slowly and sweep across the cheekbones, toward your temples, and across your outer eyelids.

Louisiana Kumquat Honey Marmlade

It's kumquat season in Louisiana, and more than likely you know someone who has a tree with so much fruit, that most of the kumquats are going bad because they don't know what to do with them. Here is a quick and easy recipe to complement all your holiday dishes and put those kumquats to good use! It also makes a wonderful gift!

Ingredients: 2 pound kumquats 1/3 cup honey (more if desired) 1/3 cup water Pinch of salt Instructions Wash and dry the kumquats. Cut them in half lengthwise, then use the tip of a paring knife to remove the seeds. Slice each half into thin strips. Repeat until all of the kumquats are deseeded and sliced.

Add the sliced kumquats to a large pot and add the honey, water, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat then reduce to low. Simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring often, until the kumquat skins have softened and the mixture thickens to a marmalade consistency. Taste halfway through and, if needed, add a few more tablespoons of honey until the sweetness is to your liking.

Remove the pot from the heat, allow the marmalade to cool to room temperature, then spoon into clean glass jars. Store in the fridge.

Red, Green &Â Gold

A LITTLE HISTORY

THE COLORS OF CHRISTMAS

EVER WONDER WHY traditional Christmas colors are Red, Green, and Gold? What do the colors represent? Most the colors and their meanings come from the western/northern European traditions and customs, when Christmas is in the middle of winter and it's dark and cold.

Green Christmas Holly Evergreen plants, like Holly, Ivy and Mistletoe have been used for thousands of years to decorate and brighten up buildings during the long dark winter. They also reminded people that spring would come and that winter wouldn't last forever!The Romans would exchange evergreen branches during January as a sign of good luck. The ancient Egyptians used to bring palm branches into their houses during the mid winter festivals. In many parts of Europe during the middle ages, Paradise plays were performed, often on Christmas Eve. They told Bible stories to people who couldn't read. The 'Paradise Tree' in the garden of Eden in the play was normally a pine tree with red apples tied to it. Now the most common use of green at Christmas are Christmas Trees.

Red An early use of red at Christmas were the apples on the paradise tree. They represented the fall of Adam in the plays. Red is also the color of Holly berries, which is said to represent the blood of Jesus when he died on the cross. Red is also the color of Bishops robes. These would have been worn by St. Nicholas and then also became Santa's uniform!

Gold A gold five pointed star Gold is the color of the Sun and light - both very important in the dark winter. And both red and gold are the colors of fire that you need to keep you warm. Gold was also one of the presents brought to the baby Jesus by one of the wise men and traditionally it's the color used to show the star that the wise men followed. .
