Therefore, using light pastels for the eyes is a thing your should consider when choosing your holiday makeup. A great option for those of you who want something more discreet, yet perfect for the holidays is a makeup in a minimalist approach. With subtle shades, this type of makeup works great for everyone.

    Choose an eyeshadow in darker, sandy shades. Apply it at the roots of the lashes, both upper and lower. Next, apply mascara and a lip gloss in a natural color. If you consider this makeup palette rather monotone, add a shimmery accent on eyelids or the Cupid's bow. You can choose to emphasize your eyes or your lips. Therefore, a fine, soft line on the upper lid or a strong red lipstick represent simple, yet stylish and effective holiday makeup choices. Besides, red is the one color representative for the winter holidays.

Natural makeup seems to be loved both by designers and women too, as it is practical, versatile and extremely flattering. Moreover, it is so special allowing you to express a multitude of different moods. For spring/summer 2011 natural makeup trend is based on a simple principle, which means enhancing natural beauty and showing a healthy glowing skin.

    As we have said before, natural makeup follows a few basic, simple rules meaning that we apply makeup, but with the purpose of illuminating the face and enhance the natural beauty of our features, bringing out the eyes, lips and cheekbones, using soft, neutral colors.

    What better way to glow during the warmer season than by choosing a flawless looking skin screaming naturalness and health? Natural makeup was seen on numerous spring/summer 2011 fashion shows with eyes barely brought out by a soft coat of mascara and sometimes by a light beige or brown eyeshadow.
