Holiday Makeup – Playing By the Rules & Breaking the Rules

This post is written in partnership with Target. All stories and opinions are 100% my own.

Hey, friends! I’m back with another Holiday Beauty post for you! If you missed my last one, I shared a gorgeous ombre eye makeup look and a bold, glittery eye makeup look perfect for any upcoming soiree you might be attending! In today’s post, I’m sharing two more holiday makeup looks: one that plays by the rules (it’s a classic, timeless look!) and one that breaks all the rules (completely retro!).

I made a visit to my local Target Beauty Concierge to get help with my looks. Meet Brooke.

Brooke helped me create a classic smoky eye look and made suggestions on a simple, loose up-do. Her suggestions included a neutral eye palette (Revlon ColorStay 16-Hour Eye Shadow in Moonlit) and a gorgeous pale pink lip gloss (Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Super Natural). To finish the look, I used the new Revlon Ultimate All-in-One Mascara (LOVE!) and Revlon ColorStay Eye Liner.

For my second look, I told her I wanted to go out of the box. I wanted to break all of the rules. She picked a gorgeous blue palette from Revlon (PhotoReady Primer + Shadow + Sparkle called Avant Garde) and suggested I do a deep wave in my hair to take it a bit retro. I grabbed the Bed Head WaveArtist tool to help me create the look she was envisioning. The look was made complete with the Revlon Ultimate All-in-One Mascara and Revlon ColorStay Eye Liner.

Both of these looks are stunning. The first: pure sophistication and elegantly classy. The second: completely retro and ultimately fun.

I hope you’ll visit a Target Beauty Concierge to help you get holiday beauty ready soon! I’ve learned so much from each of my trips to my local Beauty Concierge. Find your style @TargetStyle.

Happy holidays!
