5 Minute Holiday Make-Up Tricks!

*Metallic Lids in Under a Minute*
This season's shimmery eye shadows go way beyond silver and gold—colors such as copper, navy, and violet look cool and fresh and are easy to wear. Simply dust the color onto your lids and along your bottom lashes for a halo effect. The rest of your makeup should be toned-down—just add a coat of mascara, a dusting of blush, and a neutral lip color.

*Smokey Eyes in Three Easy Steps*

Using a soft, chubby black pencil, draw short strokes from the outer lashes inward, creating a thick line that stops just short of the corner. Repeat on your bottom lashes, then smudge it all with a cotton swab.
Dip a small eye-shadow brush in gray shadow;
tap off excess. Start at the outer corner and dust it across your lid using feathery strokes and staying close to your lash line, then blend the shadow up to the crease.
Dust what's left on the brush from your crease to your brow bone,
then blend everything into a soft haze by whisking your brush over any edges of color.
