Jingle bells, jingle bells... :)

Hello my lovelies! I hope you're having a wonderful pre-holiday time, we're only 2 days away from Christmas (I can't believe how fast time flies). So... as any 'good' beauty blogger, I decided to post a little Christmas dinner/lunch/party makeup look, along with a manicure. I actually wore this yesterday when I went home to visit my family (I won't be home for Christmas, so we had an early celebration, if you will). 

I decided to go for the 'gold eyeshadow-red lips' kind of look. :D Very festive and sophisticated (at least in my opinion). And would you believe I dared to wear red lipstick outside my home? Well, I did! And even though every single member of my family was shocked when they saw me (because they've never seen me wear red lipstick before), I didn't care. I decided to rock that red lip and so I did! :)

Anyhew... here are all the products I've used for this look and some up-close pictures of the eyes and lips. The only thing I would probably change about this look is to wear false lashes - I think they would really make the eye makeup 'pop' and make it even more festive/glamorous, but unfortunately I didn't have any, so my own lashes had to suffice. :)

As for the manicure I decided to wear... I went for a red and white combination - I don't have any nice Christmas-green polishes or Christmas glitter polishes (like a combination of red, green and gold), but I knew I wanted to wear red on my nails, so this manicure 'came to life'. The heart didn't really come out the way I wanted it to, but I decided to keep it anyway. Hope you like it... :)
