How will you shine this Holiday Season...shine on with twinkling eyes!


Try a glitzy eyeshadow or eyeliner!

and Shine On with Twinkling eyes!





Want to sparkle this season...without looking like you’ve just finished doing crafts at the kiddie table?

To spice up your everyday look add a bit of glitz and glamour with a sparkly eyeshadow or glitter eyeliner.


NARS has a new eyeshadow trio called Arabian Nights that contains 3 gorgeous shades: black with red pearls, a black with purple pearls and a black with gunmetal shimmer bold black.


Sultry smoky eyes look gorgeous with a hint of sparkly. We also love NARS Night Breed which is a rich black eyeshadow with sparkly silver glitter. NARS also makes some pretty amazing soft eye pencils packed with glitter.


If you prefer eye-catching glitzy lids...try Urban Decay’s Stardust Eyeshadow which has a sheer wash of colour and delivers an incredible amount of twinkling sparkle.





 

One of the oldies but goodies is MAC’s Vanilla Pigment. Gorgeous on any skintone and has that right amount of sheen and glow.








One of our new favourite sparkly products is Sparklicity Pure by Tarina Tarantino.  This loose pigment has a microcrystalline sparkle pigment with no binder to get in the way of the luxurious and fantastical sparkling effects it creates. Its soft, muted shade layers perfectly with the rest of your makeup to accentuate the arch of the brow, eyelids, and even cheeks. These products come packed with soft opalescent colour, they are free of binders and they are made with reflex glitter that is more dimensional than those traditional glitters of the past.

So fun to play with! but be careful...it's a loose powder that flies around. Use a flat paddle-like brush instead of a fluffy broom shaped brush. You want to press the dust on strategically instead of it flying all over your face.

 For under $20... you can go to Sephora and pick up one of their gel-based eyeliners that pack some serious sparkle. Use it alone if you’d like but we prefer to use black gel eyeliner underneath so that it’s solid (creating some depth) with sparkles layered on top.




We love the eyeliners by Tarina Tarantino as they have colour behind them and sparkle. Tarina Tarantino's sparkling creations allow you to effortlessly indulge in a little elegant shimmer and shine.

We hope you find the twinkle in your eye this Holiday Season!
