Festive Holiday Makeup Inspiration

‘Tis the season for a ton of parties! While you may have the perfect outfits to wear to them, don’t forget to plan out your makeup too. There are so many fun looks to try like a bold lip, dramatic lashes, glitter eyelids, or even unique beauty stamps. Check out these stunning makeup looks from social media gurus to use as inspiration. And of course, we’ve provided a bunch of cruelty-free products that can help you achieve each look.

NikkiTutorials is one of the biggest beauty channels on YouTube right now. Get her glamorous look with some Drama Queen Wicked Lashes by NYX ($5.25) and a bold red lip with American Doll by Anastasia Beverly Hills ($20). The matte lipstick by Anastasia Beverly Hills is fantastic because it is long lasting, making it great for snacking at parties or sipping on champagne.

Nyma Tang is just radiant in this Instagram photo. She has a gorgeous golden glow that would look fabulous for holiday events. To get this goddess-inspired look, add Cover FX Custom Drops in Sunlight ($42) to your foundation before application. And of course, you could also use these custom drops as highlighter. Just remember a little goes a long way when using this product!

Jessica Vu is only 18-years-old, but her YouTube channel is on its way to 20,000,000 views at the time of this post publishing. Incredible! We love her fun and youthful looks, especially when she incorporated a cute Milk Makeup tattoo stamp in one of her videos. In addition to its normal line of tattoo stamps, Milk Makeup has come out with a limited edition line of astrology stamps ($12) that are adorable. Plus, they make for lovely holiday gifts too.

An Knook does some spectacular things with eyeshadow. And if there ever was a time to go full blast with some glitter eyeshadow, now is the time to do it! She states that to achieve this look, she used the Huda Beauty The New Nude Palette ($65) which has glitter shadows like Charmed, Excite, and Fantasy in it. Absolutely stunning!
