  2. If your eye make-up has creased or run, blot the area gently with a tissue, thenuse a brush or sponge to smooth out the remaining color. Apply a little translucent pressed powder over the area to catch any excess oil and then top up your shadow and liner as needed to intensify your party look.

  8. Emphasize your lashes! Use a double coat ; a good quality mascara won’t damage lashes even if used day and night – use mineral mascara or go with high-impact false lashes – cut them to fit your eyes and then apply after mascara.
  9. Red Christmas lips: Apply lipstick with a lip brush before using a lip liner. Blot the lipstick after the first coat to stain the lips. Apply the lip pencil, the lipstick will help it glide on smoothly. Apply a second coat of lipstick using a lip brush to freshen up the lipstick and edges.
