Holiday Makeup Look: Ruby Red Lips that Sparkle

The holiday season is here, which means many of us are searching for the perfect holiday makeup look to wear to holiday and New Year’s Eve parties.  Over the course of the next few weeks, I will post a holiday makeup look that you can try at home.

The first holiday makeup look focuses on the lips.  I actually saw this lip on Jeannie Mai at an Opensky event a year or so ago. It was BEAUTIFUL!!! I asked her what it was, she responded: “GLIPS!”  Through some research I figured it out.

Red lips are the perfect accessory, and with some glitter, you have the sparkle that’s just right for the holiday season.  The best part of this red, glitter lip is that it doesn’t budge.  So, drink, be merry, and kiss under the mistletoe.

Here’s what you will need:

1.  Red lip pencil suitable for your skin tone.  I used MAC Cosmetics “Brick” Lip pencil

2. Matte Red Lipstick.  I use MAC Ruby Woo.  I  think every woman has this red lip pie in their stash.

3.  Ben Nye Aqua Glitter in Red.  You can find this at Ricky’s and it’s inexpensive.
