Makeup by Michelle Cousins Bridal & Occasion Makeup Artist @michellecousinsmua Photographer @lucyjaynemakeup Model @tdhmorris_ PARTY MAKEUP It’s no coincidence that the biggest party season is also the most expensive time of the year, and whilst there is so much delicious makeup choice to enjoy, the cost factor can be something that often stops us from going all out, which is a big shame. So, here is an amazingly easy party makeup haul list of makeup, with tips for using the products, (that I love!), to get those party feels going! Perfect The Primer Dab on a dot of MAC strobe for an even-toned makeup base. The lightweight, mattifying formula makes it part of my party makeup tip! A Strong Foundation Getting that flawless base is so important and my go to is Pro Longwear Foundation by MAC. This gives up to 15-hours of wear in any environmental condition. Lightweight and creamy, apply smoothly to provide sheer to medium coverage on the skin. Concealer Pay attention to those blemishes and under eye shadows! Check out Maybelline New York Eraser Eye Concealer - Light. This buildable formula provides a matte, natural-looking finish and gets a thumbs up from me! Dress Up Those Lids with Sparkly Eyeshadow One of the trendiest party makeup looks involves going big on the shadow. There are so many great WIN a Voucher for a Luxury Personalised Christmas Party Makeup Session eyeshadow palettes around on the market but I love Too Faced Chocolate Gold Eye Shadow Palette, it has the most gorgeous colours for this party season. Wingliner It’s safe to say that no party wear makeup is complete without intensely lined, jet-black eyes. The Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Liner is what you need to channel your inner diva and master the famed wing. Mascara When has a party makeup step-by-step tutorial ever been complete without some mascara? For an eye game you need fanned-out, fluttery lashes. Primark Aqua Lash is great for clump-free, thick and long lashes. Check Out Big On Brows Groom, shape and fill in the gaps with the Precisely, My Brow Eyebrow Pencil, help brush the tame stray strands and create an awesome arch. Blush Blush Baby Go from average to fabulous with the help of Nars Orgasm Blush; soft-textured shades that come with an easy-to-use applicator. Lipstick Make a statement at Christmas with the NYX Professional Makeup Liquid Suede Cream Lipstick in Bright Red, which creates a perfectly painted pout!
