Party season is here, and while some girls like to break out
the drama (hello, red lips), you can so pull off soft ‘n’ sweet for this
season. Here’s how to do girly-yet-glam makeup for your next party. Stock up
the next time you swoop into the drugstore.
Metallic eyeliner is amazing, because it adds a hint of
shimmer without going for full-on sparkle. Swipe on a bit of gloss and you’re
set to go.

These shadow quads are our new faves: they’re perf for
creating a smoky eye or for just sweeping on one awesome hue. Apply the pink to
your lids when you want something feminine or smudge on some of the charcoal to
crank the drama.

We’ve been digging glitter nails for ages, but gold is the
obvious choice for mistletoe season. Paint it on pre-soiree for a
statement-making mani.

Long hours in the classroom can zap your skin of its rosy
glow. Before you head out to a bash, smooth your skin with a hydrating
moisturizer. Let it sink in and then play up your cherub cheeks with a kiss on
bronze-y blush.

Whether you wanna amp your pout with lipstick or are more of
a gloss kind of a girl, prep your pucker with balm before anything else. Lips
need hydration before color, and this pot is packed with skin-plumping
ingredients.
