Frosted & Flawless: 7 Winter Makeup Looks To Maintain Your Spark
Winter—cold, dark, and always surprising us with little frustrations like your bag slipping off your shoulder constantly and tangling in your hair or your socks getting wet. Yet even in the chilliest of months, putting in a little effort to feel beautiful can help us reconnect with ourselves—and even have a little fun.
In the spirit of maintaining our spark, here are some playful makeup looks to try this winter:
Frosted Lids & Glittery Liner
Add icy blues or silvers to your eyelids, and finish with a swipe of glitter liner, almost like a snowflake!
