How To: Wear glittery makeup on New Year's Eve (without going overboard)

Check these out, too...

You want to be festive at that New Year’s Eve party, and all of the glitter makeup in Sephora keeps drawing you in! But how can you wear glitter without looking like you’re in costume? We’ve got the hottest ways to add a bit of sparkle to your look and still keep it classy.
 
Nail it. Nail glitter is probably the easiest way to add a little sparkle into your outfit. You can layer multicolored glitter polish over shades you already have, or choose a colored polish that has glitter in it. You can also buy loose nail glitter at Sephora, but it’s a little more complicated if you don’t have much experience with nail art.

Use just a swipe. We love glitter liner, especially at parties, so layer it over your other eye makeup for a festive effect! It’s okay to use more than one stroke, but don’t wear glittery shadow, or you might blind people with your shimmer.

Try a shimmer blush. Some blush and bronzer colors have shimmer flecks pressed into them, so you’ll add a natural sparkle to your glow. You can also try an allover color stick on your cheeks, eyes, and lips for a shimmer that’s consistent to your entire face.

Go for a shiny lipgloss. Lipstick is great for looking professional, but New Year’s is the time to party, so go all out with a flirty gloss! If you choose a fun, bright color like pink or purple, be sure to keep your eye makeup neutral.

We have been visiting my big bro this Christmas and today his dog came to stay with us. My dad was walking him and he got loose and we haven't been able to find him since 3:30 so it's been 7 and a half hours. That dog was my brother's whole life and the dog saved him from a really depressed time and now WE are the ones who ruined it because my brother came home from work and we had to tell him we lost his best friend. I'm afraid my brother is going to fall back into depression and possibly hurt himself if we don't get that dog back. Plus, the dog is unregistered so if animal control finds him they could put him down! Someone might've stolen him... He might've gotten hit by a car, too. I'm so upset and angry and guilty. How do I cope with all this?! I'm so worried my brother is going to resent us forever and slip back into depression.

 

Hey girl,


 

It hasn't been a full day yet since the dog went missing, so keep calm because he could still turn up. Dogs run off  all the time but many times know how to find their way back. If your brother is dealing with depression, that is a problem that most likely has nothing to do with your dog, but is something that he should get help with if it is a serious problem. You really can't blame yourself for the dog running away- that was no one's fault. Things like that happen. Hopefully the dog will turn up soon, and if he doesn't and you are worried about your brother, I would talk to your parents about how you can get help for him.
