Alright, babe, winter is officially here, and you know what that means—time to tweak the beauty routine! First things first, hydration is key as temps start dropping. Seriously, nothing wrecks a good makeup day like dry, flaky skin. Start with a solid skincare prep to keep your skin glowing
Now, let’s talk winter makeup vibes. It’s the season to go bold! Think deep reds, glitter, and everything festive.
- Lipstick: Pat McGrath’s iconic red lips are a no-brainer for this time of year.
- Eyes: Patrick Ta’s glittery eyeshadow duos? Absolute must for holiday parties.
- Gloss: If you haven’t tried Clarins Lip Oil yet, you need to. It’s got that perfect shine and stays put for hours.

For a more trendy everyday look, vampy lips and nails are about to be everywhere this season. And if you’re feeling the monochrome vibe, here’s a tip: use your bronzer as an eyeshadow. It gives that effortlessly cool, pulled-together look without trying too hard.
Oh, and if you’re a brown-eyed beauty, this one’s for you: brown liner on the waterline is an underrated trick. It warms up your eyes and gives just enough definition without being too harsh. A swipe of the Maybelline brown lip liner is a staple—it works on everyone. Smudge it out for a soft, subtle look, and don’t forget to set it with powder. Trust me, it’ll stay put through dinner and drinks.
And babe, please carry a hand cream with you everywhere. Dry hands are just not it!
Now for a little secret: Iconic London’s Highlighter is on sale right now, and it’s a game-changer. I swear by the matte center/glowy perimeter combo. Use Huda Beauty Powder to set the middle of your face and Iconic London around the edges for that perfect winter glow. It layers over makeup like a dream without messing up your base.
For that “cold girl” winter look we all secretly love, here’s a hack: after your undereye concealer, set it with a blush for that seamless transition, then lock it in with powder for a doll-like, frozen effect. Add a little white eyeliner to your waterline and some shimmer in the inner corner of your eyes. It’s such a winter mood.
