6 Christmas Hair & Makeup Tips
1. The Morning Glow-up: Skincare First, Makeup Second
Before diving into the makeup bag, let’s give our skin some love. Start with a gentle cleanser to refresh your face. Follow it up with a hydrating moisturizer to prep your canvas for makeup.
A touch of lip balm will keep your lips mistletoe-ready. Pro tip: If you’ve got a little extra time, a hydrating face mask the night before can add an extra dose of radiance.
2. Easy-Breezy Effortless Hairstyles
Christmas morning is no time for complicated updos. Opt for easy hairstyles that won’t steal precious time from your family.
Consider loose waves, a simple low ponytail, or even a chic messy bun.
If you want to add a festive touch, tuck in a subtle holiday-themed hair accessory – a sparkly pin or a velvet ribbon can do wonders.
Or for a SUPER easy fix, pop on a cute Santa hat!
3. Minimal Makeup – Enhance, Don’t Conceal
Let’s keep it light and luminous. A tinted moisturizer CC cream is a type of cosmetic product that can be used to even out skin tone while providing hydration and other benefits. It is your Christmas morning best friend for that fresh-faced look.
Enhance your eyes with a touch of mascara and a swipe of neutral liquid eyeshadow. A hint of blush on the apples of your cheeks will add a healthy flush.
4. Festive Holiday Lips
If a touch of lip balm isn’t enough, bring on the holiday spirit with your lip color. Whether it’s a classic red, a berry tint, or a subtle nude – choose a shade that makes you feel festive.
Or a shimmery lip gloss would be perfect for a laid-back yet polished appearance.
5. Time-Saving Routine
I get it – Christmas morning is a whirlwind. To save time, consider multi-purpose products. A tinted moisturizer with SPF combines skincare and makeup.
And remember, a smile is the best accessory, so don’t stress too much about achieving perfection.
