Go for a bright red eye and lip, candy cane optional (but we LOVE it!)

Want a little more minimal candy cane look? Try striped eyeliner.

If you’re pale, embrace the fairness and become the cutest snowman (or snowWOman!) at the party

Light cut creases are everywhere on Instagram this season, so we all have to recreate one of these.

I love the explosion of Christmassy greens, reds, and golds in this glam look.

Not really feeling the red and green vibes? This blue and purple look is gorgeous!

Mistletoe = kisses, right?

Another variation of the previous look, because we can’t decide which one to post!

Without the body painted lights, you could tone this look down enough to wear it to work this week.

Does this look feel cold to you? I think the temperature dropped several degrees, because this makeup is just too cool! (Pun very much intended)

Glam Christmas Makeup Looks

If you want some less bold and artistic looks and more traditional Christmas glam, don’t worry.

Here’s a couple more “normal” looks for inspiration.

All these Christmas makeup looks are beautiful in their own ways, and I wish I could wear all of them this holiday season.
