Ho-ho-holiday Glam Ideas!
It's……TIME!!! (Insert Mariah Carey’s voice)
Andy Williams would say - It's The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year and we all agree! The year is finally coming to an end and despite the end year fatigue we are all feeling, the festivities remain something to look forward to. From the fairy lights and festive decor, Christmas carols on everyone’s Instagram story, Santa Claus casually ringing a bell in Sarit Centre, and the Spirit of Giving and Kindness that is in the air just add a whimsical and festive touch to the season.
Holiday Makeup Ideas
Lintons Beauty World being your leading destination for beauty, we know it is a season to feel cute, relax and self pamper! With the celebratory atmosphere, we’re bound to dress nicely, go places, spread positivity, make memories and of course, freeze these moments in photos.
As we get ready to embrace the joy and happiness associated with the festive season; here are some tips on stunning holiday looks that will resonate with your personal style and the season to be jolly!
​
1. Sparkle and Glitter
Christmas is all about sparkle (read fairy dust). This is what creates the magical atmosphere associated with the festive season. So please pick up that shimmery highlight and apply it on your cheekbones, brow bone, your cupid's bow or along the bridge of your nose. Remember, sparkle and glitter are the unsung hero of Christmas, as the twinkle twinkle brings out the festive cheer!
​
2. Bold Lips
Nothing screams Christmas like the colour red! . You could never go wrong with a deep red. If deep red is outside your comfort zone, get your hands on burgundy or anything with a berry tone and your lips will still mouth ‘Christmas.’ Wanna add a little razzle dazzle to the look? Top it off with clear or metallic gloss and voila! (*chef’s kiss)
3. Festive Eyes
Gold, silver, bronze and copper!
That metallic eyeliner you have been asking yourself where you will wear it? Apply on your upper and/or lower lash lines and see the magic! Don’t be shy to create themed-winged eyeliner with traditional festive colours like green or red. That bronze, gold or copper eyeshadow? Set it on your eyelids and see yourself turn into a fairy. Pssst, gold on the inner corner of your eyes helps create a wide and brighter-looking gaze.
4. Nails that Sleigh
There is the traditional red and green set which remains a classic. If you’re looking for something unconventional but still festive, icy white, midnight blue and anything metallic would be a good pick. Add on intricate designs like holly leaves, snowflakes, candy canes and reindeers to capture the festive feel. And please, do not go easy on the glitter because festive nails, sleigh all day!
5. Festive Fragrance
Nairobi eau de parfum is Black|Up’s love letter to Africa, the roots of the brand. This is a sweet and floral scent that is femininely addictive and meticulously crafted to offer not only a long-lasting fragrance but also a high concentration of perfume that exudes elegance and sophistication that leaves an unforgettable and refined trail in its wake. Perfect for all the memories you will make this festive season.
A symphony of sweet and spicy top notes of bergamot, ginger, and blackcurrant dance into a heart of warm and feminine white floral bouquet with precious tuberose and jasmine. As the scent settles, a sensual and voluptuous feeling lingers for hours, exuding elegance and sophistication that will refine a trail in its wake, for all the memories you will make this festive season.
Let Nairobi eau de parfum by Black|Up become an essential part of your festive ensemble! As you create scent-sational festive memories, spray on this sophisticated fragrance that has a perfect blend of opulence and charm.
It’s a Wrap
As we embrace these bold colours, and dive into glitter galore, let us remember to savour the cosy feeling of belonging with family, the laughter with old friends, and the chance to make new ones. That's where the real holiday magic is!
