Starting with the base, I used the Benefit 'That Gal' primer on mainly my cheeks and nose to give my skin a nice glow. I then used a small amount of Maybelline's Dream Pure BB Cream on my skin, this is quite light coverage so it looks and feels really natural on the skin. I just blended this in with a Real Techniques Buffing brush. On any blemishes, I covered them up with the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer and I also put a little bit under the eyes.
Onto cheeks, I used a the blush out of the Sleek Face Form Contour Kit as it has a slight gold shimmer which I thought would be nice for a Christmas party! I think shimmer is always nice so the Benefit's Watts Up highlighter really came in handy. I just applied that to the tops of my cheekbones and down my nose.
I used the MUA Undressed eyeshadow palette on my eyes. I took the golden shade all across my lid and the darker olive toned gold in the outer corners. I then blended it all together to create a really simple smokey eye. For mascara, I just used the Maybelline One by One mascara.
To finish off the look, I applied MAC's Patisserie on my lips. This lipstick is absolutely gorgeous! Its a stunning natural nude that really suits my skin tone and goes lovely with a smokey eye!
I hope you enjoyed this makeup look I created and have fun at your Christmas parties! Thanks for reading, bye!
I love sleek palettes! For nights out and parties i do prefer full coverage so would use a foundation x
