I have NARS dual intensity eyeshadow in Pasiphae (photo 1 of the colour) and find it very wearable. I also wear bronze and gold colours, my favourite Dior palette is called Nude Pink Design - these are more subtle than the shadows you are looking at, but I am very pale, so colours look quite bright on me and can look lost on others. Photo 2.</p> <p>As for red lipstick, I am a definite YES to buying a new colour for the holidays. I love and wear my red lipsticks constantly and always enjoy finding a new favourite colour! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1976199 Wed, 21 Nov 2018 13:16:52 +0000 lyn67 1976199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always love me some make-up, but buy only cheaper available on stores by us, or brands like Avon/Oriflame, but as Lisap said I learned my lesson well ref. Xmass shiny and glam promotions, still cave in, sometimes:-).

Since I wear very little makeup,&nbsp;I feel allowed to splurge on expensive products. :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1976137 Wed, 21 Nov 2018 07:57:31 +0000 Janet 1976137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always love looking at the makeup shades but rarely buy.

It's funny, because I don't even wear makeup most days. Heaven knows I own enough of it, though! I'm still tempted by what I see out there at this time of year. I'm trying to remain strong and not purchase... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1976038 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 23:07:55 +0000 Aquamarine 1976038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous stuff.

I do however love the holiday gift boxes with all the different lotions and potions to try.

I am fortunate to have a duty free shop at work and I am tempted by these beauties at great prices on a daily basis. My problem is I always get overwhelmed by choices, try on a few things but rarely buy anything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1975977 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 19:49:30 +0000 LaPed 1975977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually tend to get the wantsies in the summer when it comes to cosmetics and skincare, only because my skin is less sensitive when the air is higher-humidity so I feel a bit freer to experiment. In the winter, I stick to tried and trusted products, no new stuff! If my skin didn't get irritated so easily, I might get more sucked into the idea of holiday colour.</p> <p>It sounds like the red lip gloss would be high-mileage for you as long as it's the right shade.</p> <p><b>Sterling</b>, the Clinique chubbies always call to me, even though I know that there will only be one or two colours in the whole set that I'll want to wear! It's just such an appealing format.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1975966 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 19:21:15 +0000 Anonymous 1975966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I admit to having intense interest at the holidays too. &nbsp;My interest stems from all those packaged items that contain myriad lip colors. &nbsp;I stalk Sephora and try as many of the luxury lipstick bundles as I can find. &nbsp;I usually discover the brand/color I use in the upcoming year.</p> <p>I haven't been by the store yet this season, but I will be soon. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1975964 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 19:17:52 +0000 Anonymous 1975964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE makeup, but have finally learned not to fall for these holiday makeup collections, because they never get used more than once or twice. &nbsp;Every glittery/shimmery &nbsp;thing I've ever bought is still in pristine condition after having been worn once to some party. &nbsp;I have recently &nbsp;figured out how to wear shimmery eyeshadow on a regular work day without looking like I'm headed out to dinner, and am happily using my older palettes from a few years ago. &nbsp;As far as red lip stuff goes? I'm envious of those who can wear it. It's way too high-contrast and bold for my colouring . &nbsp;That said, the Chanel collection is beautiful, and my pick would be the illuminating powder. Bobbi Brown's holiday collection has a gorgeous palette with some crazy bronze and olive shadows and a mixed blush/bronzer thing - and if I truly needed more makeup I'd be all over it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1975959 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 19:07:08 +0000 abc 1975959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, you are wise. I've been adopting a bold lip for about the last year, and more specifically, a red lip as of late.&nbsp; I DO think the red lip (either the lipstick or the gloss) will come home with me and stay alive far after the holidays :)&nbsp; As for the rest, we'll see!!&nbsp; Thanks for chiming in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1975955 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 19:04:21 +0000 Thistle 1975955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I honestly know nothing about make-up as my hyper sensitive skin hates all of it, and hates make-up remover even more!</p> <p>Still, I am a total enabler. I say pick one thing that will make you the happiest.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am always a lover of red lip gloss, and I feel like it has a pizzazz power far after the holidays.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-makeup#post-1975924 Tue, 20 Nov 2018 16:36:58 +0000 abc 1975924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find myself slightly obsessed with this year's makeup offerings from luxury brands.&nbsp; Last year I didn't even look at them, but this year, somehow I've been sucked in and have a bad case of the wantsies.</p> <p>Mostly I like Chanel and Dior holiday limited edition items, but I'm open if you've seen some fabulous items you'd like to share :)</p> <p>Here are some of them for your viewing pleasure!</p> <p>Anyone else have their eye on these goodies?</p> <p>I'm waffling, I'll go on Friday to see them in person and that should help me decide.</p> <p>--I hear fantastic reviews of the Chanel red gloss, it covers like a lipstick, and a red lip has almost become a signature of mine lately</p> <p>--The Chanel eyeshadows are what caused the sensation for me, I'm intrigued by the bronze and green colors, but worry about the wearability on a daily basis (I wfh and live a very casual lifestyle), but even I know, it's all in the application ... I do have a couple events over the next few months where I could amp up my look and go all out, the rest of the time is normal/casual day to day life.</p> <p>--The Dior eye palettes may be more functional, I like both, actually</p> <p>--Curious about the highlighters as well - don't want any sparkle, but sheen and glow are good in my book</p> <p>Any other makeup junkies out there?&nbsp; </p>
