Today I'm introducing to you my niece Beth who is helping me out with this Blogmas post. She has reached the age where she is starting to get interested in make up so I asked her if she would like to help me with a post by coming up with a make up look that she would wear to a Christmas party. She chose a simplistic yet pretty look which I think is very age appropriate for her. The look is generally quite natural with a striking lined eye and a pop of pink colour on the lips to keep it fresh and youthful.
To start Maybelline's Super Stay 24 Foundation in the shade ivory was
applied all over the face using a brush. The non transferable formula
is perfect for parties and won't rub off whilst dancing the night away. It's a lightweight foundation that gives a good medium coverage, although luckily for Beth her fresh young skin doesn't need much coverage but this helps to even out her skin tone whilst covering the odd teenage blemish. To help set her foundation and keep it in place for the duration of the party she brushed over a light dusting of Maybelline Super Stay Waterproof Powder in the shade Fawn.
For a bit of colour on her eyes Beth applied a golden shade from the Beauty UK Eyeshadow Collection palette. The shimmery gold adds a bit of glitz whilst keeping the look more natural and not overloading the eyes. For some drama and definition she next applied 2True Easy Glide Kohl Pencil in Black to both the upper lashline and her lower waterline. A swipe of Collection No Clumps Mascara finishes off the eyes. The plastic bristles on the wand help to separate and evenly coat the lashes adding plenty of length.
To prepare the lips she applied Vaseline Cocoa Butter Lip Balm keeping her lips nice and moisturised. She chose a fun bright pink lip crayon to complete the look. The Seventeen Lip Crayon is a pretty vibrant blue toned pink which is perfect for a youthful party look.
