Metallic makeup products

For these Christmas holidays and for the end of the year, follow the trend and dare with bright, metallic make-up! Here are my practical tips for you on how to do the most suitable makeup and products!

Sophisticated, intense and vivid: this is the mood that describes the make-up of the moment, metallic make-up. Absolutely worth trying for these parties, both with light and darker colors. And with the latest collections of some brands, we can find many ideas and inspirations to recreate different looks! Such as the Neo Gothic of Neve Cosmetics which includes a quad of super intense and pigmented eyeshadows, lip and eye pencils to define and illuminate in detail and a very particular black-based gloss-lipstick with bronze and gold shades.

To create a eye makeup flawless metal it is important to apply a good smoothing primer, which creates a good base to bring out the colors and shades and ensure its durability. My favorite primer of the moment is the Primer Potion by Urban Decay, just spread it with your fingertip from the eyelid to the eyebrow arch and the application of the other products will be flawless! On the eyes, based on the occasion or tastes, we can create details metal minimal with a light eyeshadow in the inner corner to illuminate the look or intensify it using a metallic pencil in the inner waterline. Or a strong smoky one with dark colors that will still be luminous thanks to the glitter and iridescent specks contained in the eyeshadows. My favorite look is the cut-crease played on the matt + metal contrast, that is, using a matte color on the crease and a contrasting metallic one on the eyelid. The effect is very elegant but intended!

But let's not forget the lips: for those who love metallic makeup it is possible to highlight them with a lipstick that is a classic red or a dark color. For a plumping effect, however, just dab a little iridescent gloss on the center of the mouth, whether we use a lipstick underneath or leave our lips natural, the result will be guaranteed!
