Rouge Cosmetics’ Top Ten Tips for Holiday Beauty

1. Invest in a great red lipstick for your holiday parties. Our makeup artists can find your perfect shade and show you how to apply it so it stays flawless all night.

2. Learn how to create the Smokey-eye look, whether you want soft or dramatic, we can teach you in just a few minutes.

3. Get yourself a great eye cream, the eyes can show fatigue and stress very easily, and the right formula can take down puffiness, soften fine lines and soothe tired eyes.

4. Embrace shimmer! When it is applied strategically, a little shimmer can make a huge difference in helping to make your skin glow and highlight your features naturally.

5. If you are going to splurge on something, make it makeup brushes. Hand cut, quality brushes make the difference between looking made-up and looking naturally beautiful. Ask any makeup artist and they will tell you it is all about the brushes!

6. Preparing your skin before applying makeup is essential. A foundation primer applied over your moisturizer and eye cream will make your makeup go on better and stay fresh looking all day.

7. Treat yourself to a facial mask at least once a week. Depending on your specific skin-type, a mask can soothe and re-hydrate stressed skin. It is a wonderful way to get ready for any holiday get together and can make a huge difference in your glow factor!

8. Find your perfect scent, and layer it. Start in the shower with a scented shower gel, then immediately apply the complimentary body cream and finish with a light spritz of the perfume. This will help your fragrance to wear longer and not overwhelm.

9. Don’t forget your hands! Apply a great hand and nail cream at least twice daily, and be sure to pay particular attention to your cuticles. When you give yourself a manicure, apply a base coat, 2 coats of the nail color and a great top coat. Let each layer dry for 1 minute before applying the next.

10. Smile! A beautiful white smile is the best beauty trick of all, so use a great tooth whitener and flash those pearly whites for a memorable Holiday season.

From easy gift-giving to makeup applications for any special occasion we can help you enjoy your holidays. From all of us at rouge cosmetics we wish you a happy and beautiful holiday season.
