This look will give you all the festive feels and make you look absolutely gorgeous. So, if you're interested in achieving this makeup look, keep on watching!

1. Introduction

First, let me introduce myself. My name is Tamar Renee, and I am so excited to Show you this holiday-inspired makeup look. I asked my followers on Instagram what kind of holiday makeup looks they wanted to see, and this was one of the top requests. I am thrilled to share with you the step-by-step process of creating this stunning look.

2. Preparing the Face

Before we jump into the makeup, it's important to prep the face properly. I started by filling in my eyebrows off-camera to ensure precision and focus. I apologize in advance for any background noise you may hear, as there is construction work happening near my building.

To Create a Flawless base, I applied the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base to moisturize and prime my skin. This product works wonders in keeping my makeup in place all day. Next, I used the Milk Hydro Grip Primer to provide a smooth canvas for foundation application. This primer is a game-changer and helps my makeup last even longer.

3. Creating the Eye Look

Now, let's move on to creating the mesmerizing eye look. I started by applying a thin layer of the Too Faced Born This Way Multi-Use Sculpting Concealer as a base on my eyelids. This will intensify the eyeshadow colors and make them pop. Then, I set the concealer with the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder in the shade Medium Deep. This powder is a recent discovery for me, and I absolutely love how it sets my makeup.

To begin the eyeshadow application, I used the ABH x Amrezy Eyeshadow Palette and a Morphe M441 brush to Blend the shade "1988" into my crease. This warm brown shade adds depth and dimension to the eyes. I made sure to blend the eyeshadow seamlessly for a seamless transition.

I wanted to add a touch of shimmer to this look, so I reached for the Juvia's Place Liquid Eyeshadow in the shade "Anira and Cara." This stunning liquid eyeshadow has a beautiful green color with a hint of brown reflection, giving off a mesmerizing effect. I used a flat eyeshadow brush to Apply the liquid eyeshadow precisely on my eyelids, keeping my eyelids halfway closed to prevent creasing.

To further enhance the smoky effect, I applied a small amount of black eyeshadow from the ABH x Amrezy palette called "BK" using a clean Morphe M507 brush. I focused this shade on the outer corners of my eyes and blended it into the crease for added dimension. Finally, I used the same brush and dipped it into the shade "Sienna" from the ABH Soft Glam palette to diffuse the black shade and create a seamless transition.

4. Perfecting the Base

With the eye look complete, it's time to perfect the base. I started by applying my cream contour using the Huda Beauty Foundation Stick in the shade "Hot Fudge." I love the creamy texture of this contour stick and how effortlessly it blends into my skin. Once blended, I used the Real Techniques Beauty Sponge to ensure a seamless finish.

Next, I moved on to concealing any under-eye darkness and brightening the area. I used the viral Makeup Forever Full Cover Concealer in the shade "714" to counteract any discoloration. Using another Real Techniques Beauty Sponge, I blended the concealer under my eyes, creating a bright and refreshed look.

To achieve a flawless complexion, I reached for the MAC Studio Radiance Foundation in the shade "NW47." This foundation provides medium coverage and a natural-looking finish. I used the Real Techniques Instapop Face Brush to blend the foundation seamlessly onto my skin, focusing on the areas where I applied concealer.

To set the foundation and concealer, I used the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder in the shade "Honey" with a Real Techniques Setting Brush. This powder helps to mattify the skin and prolong the wear of my makeup. I focused on the areas where I applied foundation, ensuring a long-lasting finish.

5. Adding Color to the Cheeks

Now that the base is perfected, it's time to add some color to the cheeks. I reached for the Juvia's Place Volume 1 Blush Palette and applied a soft peachy shade to the apples of my cheeks using a Japanesque 717 brush. This shade adds a natural flush of color and enhances the overall look.

6. Setting the Face

To set the entire face and ensure long-lasting wear, I used the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray. A few sprays of this setting spray will lock in all the hard work and keep my makeup in place throughout the day. This step is crucial for achieving a flawless finish.

7. Applying the Lipstick

For the lips, I decided to go bold with a beautiful red shade. I started by lining my lips with the Morphe lip LINER in the shade "Trend Setter." This will define the Shape of the lips and prevent the lipstick from feathering. Next, I used the Makeup Forever Aqua Lip Pencil in the shade "Full Red" to add a touch of brightness to the inner corners of my lips, creating a gradient effect.

For the final touch, I applied the Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in the shade "Uncensored." This red lip color is vibrant and long-lasting, making it the perfect choice for a holiday look. I used a lip brush to ensure precise application and an even finish.

8. Adding a Shimmer Highlight

To add a subtle glow to the high points of my face, I reached for the MAC Extra Dimension Skinfinish Highlighter in the shade "Gleam Scape." This highlighter has a beautiful gold undertone that complements the overall look. Using a Morphe M501 brush, I applied the highlighter to my cheekbones, bridge of the nose, and cupid's bow.

9. Finalizing the Look

With the makeup application complete, I added some gold accessories, such as heart-Shaped earrings, to complement the holiday theme. The overall look is breathtaking and perfect for any festive occasion. I am extremely pleased with how this makeup look turned out, and I hope you will love it too.
