Ready or not the holidays are here and the year has
almost come to an end. I hope you are ready! I had
the honor of being able to travel to New York during
Fashion Week this Fall and from the dramatic, shapely
and colorful cat eyes to the intensely pigmented lips,
it wasn’t hard to tell that the 90’s grunge look has
definitely made a comeback!
Stay fashion forward and current throughout the
holidays and into 2014 by adding gorgeous pops of
glitter to your styles to give that Hollywood Glamour
look with an everyday feel. 2014 is glitter, shimmer
and shine! It is all about eyes that sparkle in a myriad
of ways. Now I know glitter eye shadow can seem
pretty pre-tween or maybe even sheer, but some
of the looks that have been showcased are mature
enough even for those of us who wore glitter body gel
in the 90’s (lol).
Honestly, glitter can be put in the “advanced” section
of makeup application. However, don’t fret, with
a couple of tutorials from our Motives website or
YouTube, even the most complex application can
become easy with a little practice. Motives Cosmetics
by Loren Ridinger released their Holiday Quads, one
of which is shown, called Late Night which includes
matte, glitter and shimmer for limitless possibilities
going from the office, to happy hour or a holiday
party. In this ‘get the look’ picture it is paired with
the Motives Glitter Pot in Aspire and the Motives
Luxe Precision Eyeliner in Jet Black. This can all be
purchased online at www.beautywithgigi.com.
Holiday 2013 is all about nude palettes with the red
lipstick from bright reds to wine stained and even
purple plum are just a few of the fabulous must haves
this season. It’s a classic meets grunge look that has
interestingly taken on a new elegance which you must
have this season.
XOXO,
GIGI
