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

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.

MOD! I keep telling you guys about this but no one's been able to help me yet.
So this summer I went on vacation, and when I got home in September, I checked my GL profile and found that it said I am the president of 3 different clubs, and I'm the only member of these club-the thing is, I never created or joined these clubs. I tried e-mailing the e-mail address that you have in the FAQ section to delete them, but I e-mailed it about 5 times already since September and the clubs still aren't deleted.
Could you please do something about this? It's really bugging me now :/

All of these New Years Eve things sound fun (parties and stuff) but nobody I know has parties. They're more like high school things, so I end up spending it with my family. Maybe this year a friend will sleepover!
