Day 14 Christmas Countdown - Party Ready Eyes

As soon as the festive season hits I am all about the glitter and eyes for parties. My standard look for a Christmas party is glittery, shimmery, smokey eyes and a nude lip. Here are my favourite products which I haven't been able to put down during this festive season.

L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes Glitter Top Coat, this mascara is so lovely for Christmas parties to apply on top of your mascara. It gives a subtle glittery shimmer to the lashes and just gives that extra special finish to your party eye makeup. 

Soap & Glory It's About Prime, an eye shadow primer is vital for when you're wearing products on the eye. Not only does it prolong the life of your eye shadow but also increases the vibrance and colour of the shadows. This Soap & Glory one isn't the best for prolonging the wear of your eye shadow but it is great for making the colours on your eyes pop.

L'Oreal Blackbuster Super Liner, I absolutely love this liner. It's like a felt tip pen for your eyes, it gives such a dense black colour and goes on super easy. 

Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo - 70 Metallic Pomegranate, this is a lovely rich pink colour with a subtle shimmer. I have been playing around with pinks and berry shades recently and this Maybelline shade is so lovely to work with and gives an incredible vibrant colour to the lids. Also it's just worth mentioning this product stays put for a seriously long time. 

Look Beauty Statement Eyes Shadow - 20 Satchel, this is a lovely bronze shade which is great for creating an alternative smokey eye. It is super pigmented and just looks incredible when on. 

Barry M Fine Glitter Dust - 15, I am in love with this glitter dust. I have been using it just dabbed over the lid with my ring finger. I have been applying my shadow as usual onto my lids and then to finish the look off I have been dabbing this over the entire lid to give a little extra sparkle. 

MAC Pigment Colour Powder - Chocolate Brownie, this MAC powder is just incredible. I own quite a few of these and have had them for a couple of years now and it doesn't even look like I have used them yet. It is a lovely rich chocolate colour and is perfect for the classic smokey eye look. It is shimmery enough to give that party ready look but not overly glittery. 

Lancome Hypnose Doll Eyes - DO 111 Diamant Argente, this is just...there are no words. I am in love with this product right now. It looks incredible all over the lid and as an eye liner. The product is a super buttery and creamy formula and blends ultra easy. 

So there you have it, my party ready eyes. What products are you using for this years party season?
