Christmas Beauty, don’t you love it? When else do you get to be so glam and over-the-top? As long as no-one mistakes you for a Christmas tree, it is all good. However, Christmas can feel like a marathon of endless parties and family get-togethers. Your hair and make up has to look good and last so here are our top tips and ideas from Frost.

Christmas is tiring so work on your skin first. A good base is all you need to stay looking fresh. A primer will help your make up last all day and make sure your skin is looking it’s best. Before you apply your primer use a good cleanser and then exfoliate as it gets rid of dead skin cells and leaves skin smooth and fresh. Using a weekly face mask before a big event will also make sure your skin is in it’s best condition. Making sure you drink enough water and cutting down on caffeine will keep skin looking healthy. Keep a concealer handy to freshen up underneath eyes and cover up any other flaws. Powder is very underrated but not much else sets make up like it. It will stop you looking shiny and keep make up in place.

Now for some Christmas touches.

A glittery nail polish. Not only glam but also very hard-wearing. Should last a week at least.

A beautiful red lipstick or red nail polish. Endlessly glamorous with the added benefit of being a very Christmas colour.

A shimmering eyeshadow. Something that catches the light gives an extra pop of glamour.

For your hair, do an up-do like a fish tail plait or a loose bun. Add a glitzy clip or a hairband and you are good to go!

 

 

Get Pixie’s Signature Sixties Style

Whilst the starlet may well be building up a new wardrobe of spandex and sparkles whilst appearing on Strictly Come Dancing, Pixie was back to her signature sixties look of sweet retro dresses and high-rise hairstyles when she surprised shoppers with an acoustic performance of her brand new single.

The singer stepped out in this season’s hottest sixties look whilst performing an acoustic version of her single ‘Break Up Song’ at Nectar’s Thanks A million event, wearing a bold patterned shift dress and sexy tousled sixties style hair.

Pixies effortless sixties tousled tressers are easy to recreate at home, it’s all about volume! So try rubbing some backcomb dust into the roots of your hair for some seriously big hair that still has natural movement.

Nothing screams ‘sixities’ more than a classic cat eye flick. For a dramatic look try a gel eyeliner pen for long lasting flicks, or for a more modern twist like Pixie’s try blending soft Kohl for a smouldering style.
