Top Makeup Tips for Winter Beauty

Beef Up Your Brows

After mascara and eye liner the brows can get some extra emphasis with a denser application of Brow Stylist Pencil. Or trace over pencil with a matching eye shadow using the Micro-Chisel Angle Brush for more definition and attention. Always finish by brushing brows up on a 45-degree angle with clean spoolie brush (on opposite end of brow stylist). This important step distinguishes the difference between finished and fake. 

Use Clear Brow Groom and Set Gel to set, seal, and keep brows in place. 

Stronger Eyes

The quickest way to transition your eye makeup easily and elegantly is by simply switching up the shades you usually wear between the two seasons. Do you wear Sienna brown eyeliner, then switch to Noir for that extra oomph. If you wear Noir switch to Voyage, a classic clean navy, black’s best alternative for a richer and brighter eye. Double up your mascara application for an extra boost of lavishness. For grit and glam, darken the waterline/tarsal plate, the area under top lashes and above and inside lower lashes, with a sharpened black or navy kohl pencil. *FYI — Three new universal eyeshadow palettes coming in the new year. 

Lip Lore

No need to change your lip when you boost the eyes BUT if you want that extra edge of saucy holiday glam than I recommend that you try Red instead. DDB’s ravishing Red Carpet continues to be clients’ most fav choice for the classic red lip. This charismatic, cool, vivid matte blue-red, brightens the face and makes teeth appear whiter. 

Consider the Rubis Lip Liner Pencil for a clean crisp pro finish. Pump up the glam factor with a slick of Crystal-Clear Gloss. For a tamer take, check out Brandy, a warm burnt, chili-red.

Chic Cheeks

No need to change your blush colour when the temperature drops, just apply more of it. Remember, colour plus colour equals more colour. A richer cheek is always chic.
