Matte and metallic eyeshadows are the best choice if you want to try this beauty trend. It is a great look to add a subtle glam to your look. Go for a shade that will complement your attire and also blend seamlessly with your skin tone. When it comes to lipstick, choosing a subtle tone is your best bet. Make this look even more stunning with some highlighter on the high points of your face.

3. Intense Smokey Eyes

Balance the eyes with a soft and glossy look. You can play with various textures of the eyeshadow- matte, metallic, glitter, duo-chrome, to add to the look and make you stand out this festive season.

False eyelashes are an element of make-up that not many of us have explored yet. Well, this year is the perfect opportunity for you to do this as dramatic false lashes are ruling at the moment and this trend is not going for some time.

Keeping the focus on the eyes is a trick that many make-up artists do as eyes hold a major place in the make-up and putting on false lashes help you accentuate the eyes like no other. Keep the lips and base a basic though to balance the dramatic effect of the lashes.

5. Hair Accessories

And the various fashion weeks that happened this year just proved that right.

Important tip: If you have got an OTT hair accessory, keep your make-up look basic so that the look is balanced.
