For many of us, office parties, family gatherings and the year’s end give reason to be more playful and overt in our presentation than we are throughout the year. Needless to say, our favorite way to channel the festive spirit is with a holiday makeup look. For those seeking holiday party makeup inspiration, look no further than founder and creative director of MAKE Beauty, Carrie Barber, for a lip and cheek look sure to stand out at your next soirée (or Home Alone screening).
Dense or fluffy? Flat or round? We know how confusing it can be to build an arsenal of makeup tools, and that’s why we’ve eliminated the guesswork with three essential brushes designed for targeted application and blending of all your complexion products.
Lip contouring is a makeup technique that uses soft shadows to add depth and volume, making lips look fuller. Unlike face contour, lip contour is used to introduce dimensionality and softly enhance your natural lip shape, not slim or ‘sculpt.’
Precision contour refers to the delicate application of *small* amounts of contour. Thus, following the natural contours of your face and blending to avoid stark lines are key. With precision contour, the goal is to create depth and dimension with shadows that look as real as possible. Think of it as akin to high-definition makeup; it sculpts while remaining seamless, making it an ideal makeup technique for on-camera occasions and everyday wear.
