Gold and Glamorous for the Holidays

Happy Holidays Makeup Geeks!

I wanted to do a gold look that you could wear for either New Years, or a Christmas Party that would be very eye catching yet fun to do.  I love this combo of gold eyes with a plum lip!  If the glitter is too much for you, then just do a gold pigment or eyeshadow instead.

Stay safe this season and enjoy the time with your friends and family.

Much love,
Marlena
