What makeup are you planning to wear on New Year's Eve?

I always write the QOTDs in advance (usually a week’s worth!),
so it’s not quite close enough to NYE for me to know… My guess is I’ll be working through some of the MUFE eyeshadows–getting closer to the end of testing. I’ll be hanging out at home, so nobody will be surprised at makeup that has no rhyme or reason 😉

First NYE out for me in 22+ years. Going to dinner with my daughter but taking advantage of being out on the holiday so I’m going to do a festive eye look using the glitter shadow I just bought from LA Splash (I’m an affiliate) in Bloody Mary. Straight up true red glitter! Not sure what I’m pairing it with yet but whatever I do, I suspect it will be more subtle against the OTT eye look.

I’m going to a nice dinner with friends, so I’ll probably do something classic like smokey eyes, burgundy lips, and false eyelashes. But I have a bunch of holographic and glitter makeup that I would wear if I was going somewhere dancey. Maybe next weekend!

I’m already wearing some foundation and shimmery bronzer (MUFE Ultra HD and Becca Poured in Topaz) so I think I might do a silvery/blue/lilac/gray eye look! Something about NYE just makes me want to play with icy shades. There’s so many I might use but some of my options are: KvD Tinsel, KvD Ignite, MUG High Wire, Nars Parallax, ColourPop Liberty, or some combo of the above! I was just going to hang out alone at home but then earlier a friend invited me to a casual NYE party, so now I have an excuse to add eye makeup.

I am planning to wear one of my favourite eyeshadow and lip combos – Olive green and gold eye, with ginger lip.
Happy New Year to you Christine and to all of our Temptalia community.
I hope you all stay safe and warm, as even here in Aus, your cold Northern winter is featuring on our news reports and it looks pretty bad.

I am so staying in tonight…it was -5° here this morning and I have no desire to go out in the bitter cold. Figure i’ll do a “pamper my skin” night in and indulge in a sheet mask. Maybe some exfoliation and plucking thrown in for good measure! The highlight of my day was my Steelers won their NYE day game so I’m a happy camper. Gonna make some diner and crawl under a blanket and see if I can find a good movie on cable. Happy New Year to all!!!

Happy NewYear to all! Hubby & I usually celebrate New Years dancing away at a hotel but this year I cane down with a cold and although much better still coughing and congested so decided to sleep iver at moms with my son, nephews and then going for brunch today all together. I wore leggings and sweater nothing fancy as it is usually. Ni heels either. Just cozy and fun. I did wear foundation and the regular process. Experimented one night with my new Nyx delivery and today is Colourpop eyeshadows.

I didn’t go crazy because I wanted to be able to remove it easily at someone else’s house. I used Makeup Revolution Flawless Mattes 32 Palette, elf Aqua Beauty Molten Liquid Eyeshadow in Rose Gold, Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Paaarty, Urban Decay Afterglow Highlighter in Sin, and Clinique Almost Lipstick in Pink Honey.
