Foundation 

When it comes down to makeup, it’s important to create a perfect face canvas and that’s when a full coverage foundation comes in. the foundation is essential to create a blank canvas for you to plan the makeup look. However, choosing the right foundation is essential to ensure it doesn’t fade if you hug someone out of excitement (what a bummer it would be!).

Liquid Highlighter 

The Christmas parties are all about bling and you have to show it off with the perfect highlighter that adds glow to your face. For this purpose, we suggest that you opt for a liquid highlighter that you can apply all over your face, dab it in, and cover it up with the foundation or base of your choice. The best thing about liquid highlighter is that it can be applied evenly and won’t budge even when you blend in the foundation, promising a sheer glow that everyone wants while getting ready for the year-end party.

Perfect Gifts For The Christmas Season

With everyone sipping on the hot coffee and preparing for the Christmas season, we are sure you have been thinking, “what should I gift to my loved one?” Honestly, everyone chooses body washes, bath bombs, clothing, and decoration pieces for gifting purposes, but hey, if you are choosing something for a woman, cosmetics can be the best gifts out there. So, if you are ready to choose the best gift this Christmas season, we are sharing some of the best options!

Eyeshade 

If you are finding a gift for someone who loves watching YouTube tutorials and trying out new eye makeup techniques, gifting an eyeshade palette is the perfect option. Truth be told, everyone opts for pink and nude eyeshade palettes, but this season, stick to the blues and whites. The eyeshade palette with blues and base colors will be all they need to create the snowy eye makeup with the availability of blue, silver, and white colors. We don’t mind saying that this is a perfect eyeshade palette for everyone who is into blues and like to make vibrant eye makeup looks.

Matte Lipstick

There is no better gift than a liquid matte lipstick for people who love makeup. So, it’s best to opt for the densely-pigmented liquid matte lipstick. Matte lipstick is actually a great gift option if the recipient likes playing with makeup. In fact, opting for red color is a perfect choice if they like bold makeup looks. You can either give it as the ultimate gift or add it to the holiday gift basket to add sprucing to the gifting purposes. But hey, don’t forget to opt for a vegan and cruelty-free option!

Creamy Lipgloss

As Christmas is just around the corner, every woman is looking for a perfect red lipstick that adds sprucing to their look and adds a pop of color. Having said that, a creamy lipgloss is something that you must gift to your loved one. This is because the creamy lipgloss can add sheer yet luminous shine to the lips while the creamy formulation keeps the lips moisturized. In fact, the creamy lipgloss with vitamins will help keep their lips moisturized. So, add a creamy lipgloss to the gift hamper and have them flaunt a red pout this Christmas season or at the New Year’s party. 

Makeup Brushes 

The makeup vanity is incomplete without makeup brushes. Honestly, the majority of women still blend the makeup with fingers – sure, it promises great blending but it can leave behind some streaks of unblended makeup. Having said that, if you are still looking for a gift for your loved one, giving them a makeup brush set is an ultimate choice. For instance, a makeup brush set includes the contour brush, eyeshade brushes, eyebrow-shaping brush, foundation brush, blush brush, and more to ensure their makeup looks are blended to perfection. Not to forget, choosing a makeup brush set with a case is better as it has a better presentation and looks good as a gift!

So, which makeup product are you getting for your loved one, then?

Must-Have Makeup Items For Christmas


The holiday season is here, and it wouldn’t be wrong to call it the best time of the year. However, it’s the busiest time of the year, and you end up becoming the social butterfly (isn’t your social calendar jam-packed?). Ranging from family parties to office gatherings, there are so many events to attend, and you obviously need to get ready, right? 

So, with this article, we are sharing the must-have makeup in your vanity to look at your best in all those parties!

Moisturizer 

To begin with, the holiday season is hard on the skin due to all that makeup, and chilly winds just add dryness to your skin. For this reason, it’s important to apply moisturizer to the skin to ensure it’s supple and soft for the makeup to be applied. Having said that, if your moisturizer bottle has ended, it’s time to purchase a new one!

Foundation 

Sure, you spent the year with the bare-minimum makeup, but it’s time to invest in a good foundation to create a perfect canvas for makeup. It’s suggested to opt for a full-coverage foundation as it works better for the parties. Also, make sure that your foundation matches the skin tone so you don’t end up looking like a ghost (unless you are dressing up as a ghost for Halloween). 

Moisturizing Lipstick 

Since it’s winter and you must be already struggling with chapped lips, having moisturizing lipstick is actually a great choice. A moisturizing lipstick will simply glide on your lips, and you will have the perfect pout while nourishing them with the moisturizing properties. So, this is another must-have cosmetic in your vanity this holiday season!

Finish Powder 

Sure, it’s winter, and you won’t be sweating but applying a finish powder does more than that. For instance, applying the finish powder will ensure that your foundation stays in place and doesn’t shift. In fact, it has the capacity to ensure your makeup stays on longer while creating a smooth canvas for the skin. So, get your hands on the finish powder and thank us later!

Eyeliner 

You really cannot neglect eye makeup on holiday season parties because, hey, you have got to look the best! For this reason, investing in a liquid eyeliner will actually help you attain a great eye makeup look and add a perfect finishing. An eyeliner with the precise tip will ensure that you can create the winged eyeliner or cat eyeliner, whatever suits your look!

Eyebrow Pencil 

Imagine creating the best makeup look for yourself, and your eyebrows are in chaos – won’t that be frustrating? Well, you can fix that issue by investing in the eyebrow pencil. With an eyebrow pencil, you can draw eyebrows of your choice and make sure they are even, so your makeup look appears well-put-together. But hey, use it carefully because you don’t want to end up with weird-looking eyebrows!

Find The Perfect Lipsticks For Your Skin Tone – The Ultimate Guide

So, you took out our red lipstick but didn’t look as ravishing as Rihanna? As it turns out, you need to select the lipstick with extreme precision and considering your skin tone is one of the biggest concerns, ladies!

With hundreds of lipstick shades floating on the cosmetic shop’s shelves, it can be challenging to find the right one that complements your tone. So, if you are ready to narrow down the lipstick colors according to your skin tone, we have the ultimate guide for you!

Determining The Undertone Of The Skin 

It doesn’t matter if you have dusky skin or pale color, the undertones are categorized into three categories, including neutral, cool, and warm. Ladies with cool undertones have pink, red, and bluish tones, while warm undertones show yellow, peachy, and golden undertones. On the other hand, the neutral undertone has a combination of cool and warm undertones. 

Choosing Lipstick According To Your Undertone 

Honestly, there is no hard-and-fast rule of finding the perfect lipstick shade because you will need to experiment with a few to get the right one. However, being aware of the undertone really helps, so get some lipsticks and swatch them on the inside part of the art and see how they look against your skin. So, check out the following lipstick shades that you should try;

  • Warm Tones 

If you sport the yellow, golden, and peachy undertone, get your hands on the corresponding colors, such as terra cotta, brick red, and orangey-red because they complement these tones. In fact, Scarlet and Cherry Red Matte lipsticks from Ola Julie Cosmetics will be an apt fit!

  • Cool Tones 

When you have bluish and pink undertones on your skin, you need to opt for lipstick that has similar tones. For instance, you can opt for the Cherry Red matte lipstick from Ola Julie Cosmetics. In addition to this, you can opt for Lavender Field and Magenta.

  • Neutral Tones

If you have got a neutral undertone, you are extremely lucky because it complements a wide range of lipstick shades. In the case of fair skin, opt for pinky lipsticks, while women with medium skin should get a mauve color or nude colors (just get yourself a Kinky from Ola Julie Cosmetics). 

Guide To Choose The Darker Lipsticks 

The dark lipsticks look amazing on women of color. However, to choose the right dark and deep lipstick color, it’s essential to pay attention to your skin color. But ladies, wearing the deep lipstick color with gloss will add ultimate oomph and create an evening look. Not to forget, a bit of shimmer doesn’t hurt anyone. 

Guide To Choose The Nude Lipsticks 

If you haven’t been living under the rock, you would know that nude lipsticks are the ultimate beauty statement. Truth be told, there can be nothing more challenging than choosing the right nude shade because you don’t have to consider your skin tone – just focus on finding the nude shade that matches the natural lip color. 

So, are you ready to flaunt your pout, babe?

The ultimate Makeup Trends For Fall 2021


The weather is turning around, and in no time, we will be taking out those long coats, army boots, and fur jackets. However, what are you gonna do about the makeup, babe? Sure, you are going to wear the mask, but this fall has some amazing makeup trends in store that will push you to make those amazing strokes on your face. Ranging from bold and bright to soft and pastels, fall 2021 has something for everyone, and we are here to explain it all. So, are you ready to dive into your makeup vanity, ladies?

Semi-Matte & Natural Skin 

Winters and fall season have always been about matte makeup – sure, some people played with dewy makeup, but this season, both arenas will be combined. Ever since COVID-19, everyone has started minimal makeup, which means semi-matte and natural skin is everything you need to flaunt your makeup game. Remember, ladies, you will need to let go of the high-coverage foundation, concealer, highlighters, and powder. Not to forget, it looks luxurious and chic, so do we agree that less is more this season?

Colored Eyeliner 

The colored eyeliners have been around for quite some time but weren’t we all too scared to let go of the black eyeliner? Well, this fall season, you need to let that go and spruce up the makeup game with colored eyeliner. Personally, we love colored eyeliners because when the entire face is covered with a face mask, why can’t we play with some colors for the eyes? 

Flushed Look 

Creating a flushed look with enhancing tones and complementary strokes is all you need to show off healthy skin. That being said, the flushed and healthy skin with some matte and cream makeup is everything for fall season. In fact, you can use cream concealers and ultra-defining mascara to add some pop to your face while keeping it flushed. 

Smoldering Eyes 

We had to pack away the black and smoky eyeshades due to summer, but the 90s beauty is making a comeback. This winter, you can create smoky smoldering eyes with brown and black tones – it will create the perfect sexy and mysterious eye look. If you have a fair-toned person, opt for gray and brown tones while ladies with dusky skin can opt for black and deep browns (yup, burgundy is also pretty good, awesome choice!). In fact, the marigold orange eye palette will be a perfect option for your smoky eyes needs!

The Brown Look 

We are sure your winter wardrobe is all about brown and skin long coats and boots of the same color, so why don’t you add some brown to the makeup? In simpler words, create your makeup look with brown lips and brown eyeshades (it’s flattering for everyone and looks oh-so-chic!). But hey, don’t forget to add some pink blush to look fresh!

Kitten, Baby!

It doesn’t matter if you are a cat lady or not; you gotta make room for kitten eyeliner this fall season. It adds a sexy lift to your makeup look while keeping it natural – what more could you need?  So, if you don’t like a dramatic wing, this is the real eyeliner game that you need to follow!

Glossy Lips

If you aren’t reading under the cards, let us tell you that 2000s makeup trends are coming back, which means you can finally play with the glossy lips (we almost forgot, lip liners will also come back). So, use a combination of lip liner and lip gloss to add a full appearance. To apply the lip gloss, add some to the center of lips and at the cupid’s bow to create a fuller pout. 

Add Some Vibrancy 

If you are into colors, add some pop of color to your makeup look by adding pink blush on the cheeks or playing with blue eyeshade. But ladies, don’t stick to rules and never hesitate to experiment with colors. That being said, colors hold power to make you feel optimistic, and it’s time to add a vibrant element to the makeup look!

Lip Stains 

As the fall season is coming up, you can get back to your favorite lipsticks rather than a lip balm (didn’t we all use balms the entire summer?). Ranging from deep maroon to fresh pinks, everything will go fine on your lips. Also, if you opt for lip stains, you can drink that hot chocolate without worrying about ruining the lipstick!
