Last-minute makeup ideas to try on Christmas

Although our faces will be masked and we might end up staying home even on Christmas this year, don’t let that take away from your little festive joys. It is proven that dressing up and putting make can lift one’s mood instantly. Makeup, like one’s fashion sense, is very personal. It is a form of self-expression. That is why it shouldn’t matter if a mask is covering most of our faces or we are not going out to celebrate Christmas. We can glam up right where we are and celebrate our festivals nevertheless-creatively.

Here are some last minute tips to help you:

Red Lipstick: A red
lipstick is a perpetual friend of anybody who likes makeup. It can be the
only thing one puts on their faces and it will still light up the entire look.
Red Lipstick is versatile and it is a magical colour for confidence. The first time
someone puts on red lipstick, they invariably hate it but eventually they
realise the power of red lipsticks. One might think that lipsticks are useless
now since our face is semi-covered, but since when do we put make up for
others? Also, red is the perfect colour for Christmas. The pop colour will
brighten up your mood.
