Quick Glam Makeup for the Holidays

By Celthia Corsino

Looking for quick glam eye makeup for the holidays? Here are some tips for cutting time and looking fabulous (with or without the mask) with some of our favorite products!

Laura Mercier Grand Overture Mini Caviar Quartet 

This limited holiday edition set comes with four highly pigmented cream eyeshadow sticks in both shimmer and matte finishes. Apply easily and effortlessly with a brush or finger, building to desired intensity. Lasts until the party’s over – at least up to 12 hours!

Kevyn Aucoin Precision Liner 

From a natural defined eye to a glamorous winged cat-eye, this smooth, skip-free, waterproof liquid liner stays put until you wash it off. It’s perfect for tight-lining and adding drama any time of any day! Just press vertically on top of lashes in dashes from inner to outer corner to form a straight line. Flick out and voila!

Kevyn Aucoin Eyelash Curler

This award-winning lash curler delivers beautifully curled lashes. Suitable for all eye shapes and easy to use, it also comes with a replacement silicone cushion pad. This should be a staple in any complete kit. Curl up, then lash out pro-style with mascara!

Esqido Mink and False Eyelashes 

These lashes are a favorite among celebrities and pro artists alike. Easy, comfortable, natural, and reusable. Enhance your eyes with these beautiful high-quality lashes. They are the perfect finishing touch!

These make great stocking stuffers and fun little gifts, too. Enjoy the season!

I have been a beauty junkie for what seems like forever, but before I did anything about it, I went to law school. (Yes, my life is a little like the reverse of Legally Blonde.) Then, I worked as a prosecutor in Sonoma County after which I moved to the DC area with my husband in ’97. I served as Majority Counsel to the Senate Banking Committee followed by a year-long stint at a lobbying firm. You get the picture. It was then that I decided to act on my dream of becoming an entrepreneur. Finding my favorite beauty products proved to be impossible without stepping foot in a mall–the horror. So, I decided to bring my favorites to Alexandria. A few trips to New York and a flight to France and Bellacara was born in March 2000.
