Your New Year's Eve Makeup Look

Looking for a super simple but glam look perfect for NYE? We have tracked down some no fuss simple and beautiful looks that you can do at home, from the Cameron Diaz red lip to the Emma Watson dramatic eye! 

The Red Lip

Work it like: Cameron Diaz
A good red lip starts by getting the rest of the face right, that means casting aside the huge amounts of foundation you may be used to in favour of something lighter. Because all eyes will be on your lips there is no need to put all the focus on your eyes either, keep everything simple to let those lips make the most impact. And of course that doesn’t mean reaching for the red lippie, a coat of gloss can be just as effective!


Why not try…

Stila Long Wear Lip colour $57.00 from Mecca Cosmetica 

The Bronzed Beauty
Work it like: Kim Kardashian
Starting with prepped and primed skin, apply tinted moisturiser to all the areas that need it. Then buff out the skin with some bronzer. You can splurge and pick up a MAC or Lancome version, but if you are new to the world of makeup why not just nab something more affordable. Soften the look by applying a layer of translucent powder to the skin, and the line eyes and swipe on mascara. Don’t forget the décolletage, to avoid looking brown faced and pale bodied!


 
Why not try…
Thin Lizzy bronzer $39.99 from Radius Online
 
The Quick Impact Eye
Work it like: Emma Watson
When it comes to the world of trying to get a great high impact eye, I really think that reaching for a trio compact is the easiest no fuss way to achieve the look. Start with the lightest colour over the entire eye, working the darkest colour into the far corner blending to the crease. Lastly the second darkest colour worked


 
Why not try…
Smashbox Eyeshadow trio $57.00 from Smashbox stockists
