Holiday Tidings With M·A·C

Instead of a white Christmas, it looks like Los Angeles may be having a wet, windy Christmas instead. But either way, it’s no excuse to skimp out on looking your best this holiday! On Monday, I rounded up a few great destinations to complete your last-minute shopping. If you’re looking for the perfect gift for the makeup lover in your life (or even for yourself!), consider the holiday Enchanted Eve collection from M·A·C Cosmetics!

I had so much fun playing around with two of the eye shadow palettes. For my skin tone, I like to stick with mauve hues with a warm taupe/nude base, and these two palettes blended perfectly well together. By mixing satin textures with matte and velvet ones (try your blending techniques with this brush kit), one could produce endless options for a look that fits any mood.
