Festive beauty looks you’ll actually want to emulate this holiday season

The 'natural no-makeup look'

We feel duped, given that this look is created with makeup. However, it usually takes about five products, and shows off that healthy glow your skincare routine has been creating! Use these methods to enhance, rather than create your look with makeup.

Soap brows

Hear us out - shaping your brows with soap is a massive trend at the moment. It's simple and cheap, and gives the perfect fluffy-looking brow. Give it a try with some soap, a spoolie, and a brow pencil if you're inclined to filling yours in!

Subtle eyes

If you're anything like me, you'll feel the need to paint every inch of your eyelid with glitter on New Year's Eve. However, this can often go awry - if you rub it for even a second, you'll be seeing that glitter on your skin for weeks. Here are some more subtle approaches that fit in with the natural look, and will help your eyes look bigger and brighter as well!

Beach hair

This style is perfect for summer, because even if you detest the beach, it'll look like you've just emerged from the water like some dreamy mermaid. It plays into the natural look that's popular right now, and is also pretty easy! We've found two super-helpful tutorials, so check it out!
