Golden Smoked Purple New Years Eye

Is everyone excited for the New Year?! 

It should be a fun adventure for all of us, but what makeup are you going to wear for the big night?

Here is a slightly more wearable glittery smokey eye to help make your New Year's Eve a bit easier.

Prime your eyelid. (Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion in Sin)

 Using the NYX 10 Color Eyeshadow Palette in Jazz Night begin to apply your eyeshadows in the order shown.

Sweep the purple into your crease blending upwards and out.

 Using a pencil brush place the dark gray in a slant on your outer corner and then drag it up into the crease.

 Blend thoroughly into the crease with a fluffy brush and blend slightly next to the bridge of your nose.

Sweep on the pearlescent purple under your brow blending the lighter shadow in with the darker shadow on the crease.

Deepen the crease with the black and blend well!

 Mix a pale yellow gold glitter with elf Makeup Lock and Seal.

Apply to your lid and inner corner with a small angled brush.

 Deepen the look of the eye by adding some of the purple eyeshadow on the lash line and then line the upper and lower lash and water lines with black liner. Wing the liner out with a small pointed liner brush.

Now just add some mascara and false lashes and YOU'RE DONE!

Christmas Makeup Using the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette & NYX Liners

If you want a pretty, not so in your face makeup for the holidays this look has you covered!

This look is very simple but you will definitely look festive!

 Apply Urban Decay Primer Potion in Greed and blend it all over the lid.

I will be using the shadows in numerical order. (I figured this would be a little more helpful!)

 Apply Strange to your brow bone and inner corner.

 Press Limit onto the outer portion of your lid and blend into your crease using Nooner.

Pat Trick over the entire lid to add gold shimmer! Whoo!

 Push Factory into your crease as well as on the very outer corner to add depth. Blend upwards using a fluffy shadow brush.

With a pencil brush, sweep Nooner on the outer 3/4ths of your lower lash line.

Gently pat away any fall out if necessary and apply concealer.

 Add a nude liner to your waterline and line your upper lash line in a small cat eye using NYX Studio Liquid Liner in Intense Black.http://www.nyxcosmetics.com/p-57-studio-liquid-liner.aspx

Now comes the fun part...

 Using NYX Liquid Crystal Liner in Crystal Gold, line just above your black liner to give your look a glittery/shimmery golden holiday feel!http://www.nyxcosmetics.com/p-53-liquid-crystal-liner.aspx

 Add some brows, mascara, and maybe even some tinted lip balm and you are all ready to go!!

 There you have it! A really great look for the holidays that won't make you look too outrageous! If you would like to see a more in depth review of the Naked 3 just click herehttp://chelceybeauty.blogspot.com/2013/12/urban-decay-naked-3-review-and-swatches.html.

Easy Wintery Nails

Time for some easy and pretty purple/gold wintery nails!!

Start by using your favorite base coat. I used the O.P.I Natural Nail Base coat.

Then using a deep blue toned purple (China Glaze in VIII)

 Apply your first coat and let it dry for at least 1 full minute. 2 would be even better!

On my right hand, because I am right handed, it is easier to start with my pinky and go left. This prevents me from smudging my nails with my left hand as I go! So left handers try painting your right hand starting from the pinky and moving right!

 Add your second coat and let your nails dry for another 2-3 minutes.

Now to add some sparkle I will be using China Glaze in Champagne Kisses.

 Make sure that most of the brush is wiped off so that the majority of the polish is at the end of the brush. press the brush onto the base of the nail then very lightly pull up in different directions, creating a streaky icicle effect.

Now add your top coat. To keep the sparkle going I used Out The Door top coat in Northern Lights.

And you're DONE!!

Super simple! Super pretty! And they almost look like a golden wintery night sky! I mean the top coat is literally called Northern Lights right?! I hope you like these nails as much as I do! They were so easy but I think they just look absolutely wonderful for the most wonderful time of year!

Thank you so much for reading! If you try these out feel free to send me a picture!
