Going For Gold – Full Glam Gold Christmas Make Up Look

‘Tis the season to be sparkly!

With the up coming festivities, I love going all out. Whether that’s the shiniest dress in the shop, or not keeping the glitter purely on the eyelids and spreading it right up to my hair line instead. Is there anything more festive than gold glitter? I think not. This year, more than ever before, I’m really going for it. I adore how this make up look turned out and also how long it lasted! This would be perfect for a Christmas party where you wanted to do a full glam moment.

For the ultimate long lasting and most flawless base I used the Nars Radiant Longwear Foundation (I wear shade Gobi) and layered cream base products (ELF Putty Bronzer and Blusher) with powder products to set. Layering base products in this way creates a fabulous flawless base and I love the finished look. It never looks too much, but stays looking amazing all day and I never have to worry about it.

I used one of my all time favourite eyeshadow palettes the Revolution Forever Flawless in Allure. The colours in this palette are so soft and feminine, and I love it for its variety. It’s so easy to make a pink toned look, or like I did for this look more brown golden tones. I topped the centre of my lid with the ELF liquid glitter eyeshadow in 24K Gold and blended it right out up to my eye brow for the ultimate glitter impact. You could absolutely keep this just on the lid, but why would you when its Christmas?!

I finished off the eyes with a brown eyeliner from Maybelline, I went with brown rather than black to make it softer while still being glam. Two heavy coats of mascara and a smudge of colour under the eyes and I am good to go!

This lipstick from Revolution Pro is my favourite nude at the minute, I think it’s meant to be a dupe for Pillow Talk but I’ve never had that so couldn’t comment on its resemblance, but either way I love this formula! Its a satin matte finish that’s so beautifully soft and comfortable, but also long lasting. I want to get my hands on some more shades its a lovely finish, I think if I’d have tried this before our wedding I probably would have worn this for my big day, that’s how much I love it!

What do you think of this look, is it something you would do for Christmas? What are your go to glam festive looks and products, I’d love to know!
