Go old Hollywood glam by pairing bold, winged liner with bright red lipstick. This is a classic makeup look that’ll help you turn heads wherever you go.

The ‘90s Nude

The ‘90s are back and bigger than ever, so it’s not surprising that this all-over nide makeup moment is a huge hit right now. Thanks to the Kardashian clan for bringing this ultra-glam look back to the scene.

Pinktastic!

This Christmas makeup look might take a bit more time, but the end result is gonna be utterly gorgeous. Pair it with red lips to take your glam look up a notch.

The Retro Glam

Create super-bold wings, gloss your lids, and swipe on red lipstick for an Old Hollywood glam makeup moment that is perfect for Christmas dinner.

Glitter That’ll Make You Look Like Gold

The inner-corner eye pop was blowing up in 2021 and is only getting stronger for 2022, so ape it by patting an opaque layer of holographic eyeshadow over the inner third of your eyelids, keeping the rest of your eyeshadow neutral, or not! It’s New Year’s Eve, folks; do whatever TF you want.

Damn, Those Eyes!

Taking to Instagram, Deepika Padukone shared a photo of her above-the-neck spin on throwback glamour. Amalgamating the thick, arched rimming of kohl with a touch of smoke, a lad with eyeliner and kajal on the waterline created a sultry look. She paired it with impeccably chiselled cheekbones and a defined nude lip that elevated it to extraordinary status.

Green Eyes, Hypnotise

While green eyeshadow may sound terrifying, but this is a look that will make you stand out for all the right reasons, and is actually way more flattering than it sounds (trust us). This gorgeous glowy makeup makes green eyeshadow feel totally wearable while still delivering on the glam factor.
