Got a Christmas shindig to shimmy to but barely any time to beautify? We have a makeup look that you can achieve while you’re sitting at your desk if you’re that pushed. Nothing beats the soft glam of a gold smoky eye, and if you pair it with a red lip, you’ll be set to slay at any seasonal party. We asked Nyla Hélène from @kulchicbeauty to show you how it’s done…
Smoke it out
The perfect smoky eye is all about a deep and smouldering crease. Achieve this depth by buffing the central shade from the GOSH 9 Shades To Rock Down Under Palette through your crease, then layer with the top middle shade to darken. Finish your crease by adding a black eyeshadow from the Revolution X Tammi Tropical Paradise Palette to the outer corner.

There’s a gorgeous golden shimmer shade in the GOSH palette that we used to add some Christmas sparkle – totes apprope for party season.
