Tutorial for Christmas make-up

Christmas is the perfect time to go all out with a festive make-up look. Whether you go for a classic look or something more outgoing, the right make-up always takes your Christmas outfit to the next level. Here we take you step by step through a beautiful classic Christmas make-up look, complete with smokey eyes and red lipstick. Quickly get behind your vanity desk and let's get started with our Christmas make-up ideas!

Classic Christmas make-up

Classic Christmas make-up is all about elegance and timeless beauty. Think glowing skin, subtle eyebrows, a touch of blush, dramatic eyes and of course those signature red lips. This look is suitable for everyone and suits any occasion, whether you're having a family dinner or a fancy Christmas event.

Step 1: Your foundation

A beautiful Christmas make-up starts with a good foundation. Make sure your skin is clean and hydrated before you begin. A hydrated skin will help your foundation to stay on better and to look natural. To make sure you apply the foundation the correct way, you can use our make-up mirror with lightning. The lightning around the mirror helps you to see the right colors of your skin and make-up. 

Start by applying a primer to make your Christmas make-up last longer and soften blemishes. Next, choose a foundation that matches your skin tone.

Apply your foundation with a damp make-up sponge for a natural effect. Start in the center of your face and work outward. Remember to blend your foundation well along the jawline and neckline to avoid harsh lines. Use concealer to camouflage dark circles under the eyes and hide any red spots or blemishes. Apply it in a triangular shape under your eyes for a brightening effect.

Step 2: Your eyebrows

Eyebrows instantly add expression to your face and frame your eyes. First, brush your brows through with an eyebrow brush and then fill them in with a pencil or powder that matches your hair color. Work with small, light strokes to create a natural effect.

If you want fuller eyebrows, use an eyebrow gel to hold the hairs in place and to add volume. Apply the gel in upward strokes for a lifting effect. This will ensure that your eyebrows stay nicely shaped throughout the day.

Step 3: Christmas with a blush!

Blush is the perfect way to add some extra color and warmth to your face, especially during the holidays. Choose a blush in a soft pink or peach shade to create a natural blush.

Tip: Apply the blush to the top of your cheeks and gently blend it towards the temples. This will give you a fresh and healthy look. Want to give your Christmas make-up an extra festive touch? Then choose a blush with a subtle shimmer. This will give your face a beautiful glow and make it shine under the Christmas lights.

Step 4: Smokey eyes for Christmas

For Christmas eye make-up, we recommend you to create smokey eyes for a festive look. They add depth to your eyes and create a dramatic effect. Choose classic Christmas colors such as gold, bronze or deep brown for a warm look.

Start with an eyeshadow base to ensure your Christmas eyeshadow stays on longer and doesn't draw in the lines. Apply a light eyeshadow all over your eyelid as a base color. This It can be a neutral color, such as beige or light gold. Use a darker shade in the arcade arch of your eye to create depth, and blend this color well to avoid harsh lines.

Go for shine and apply a shimmery eyeshadow in the center of your eyelid for a ‘pop of shine’. This attracts light and gives your eyes a sparkling look. Finish off your smokey eyes with a soft eyeliner along your upper lash line and draw the line slightly for a subtle wing. Don't forget to lightly highlight your lower lash line as well. Finally, apply multiple layers of mascara for extra volume and length.

Tip: Want a more intense look? Then add a little black eyeshadow to the outer corner of your eye and blend well. This will make your smokey eyes even more dramatic and perfect for an evening party. Read our blog with more tips on how to apply eye make-up step by step.

Step 5: Complete your Christmas look with red lipstick

Nothing says more Christmas than a beautiful red lipstick. It's the finishing touch that completes your look. Choose a color that matches your skin tone and personality. From bright red to deep red, there is a perfect shade for everyone.

Tip: To make sure your lipstick lasts longer, first apply a lip liner in a matching color. Color your lips completely with the lip liner before applying the lipstick. This prevents the lipstick from running out and ensures that the color stays on all evening. Apply the lipstick with a brush for precise application. For an extra glamorous effect, apply another bit of lip gloss in the center of your lips.

Give your make-up the perfect Christmas touch

To really finish off your Christmas make-up look, you can add a few more finishing touches. Consider a subtle highlighter on your cheekbones, and under your eyebrows. This will give your face extra depth and a beautiful glow.

Also, don't forget to fix your make-up with a setting spray. This will ensure that your make-up stays on perfectly all day and evening, even after the Christmas dinner.

With these steps and products, you'll be ready to shine during the holidays. Whether you go for a classic look or a little more drama, the important thing is that you feel confident and beautiful.
