Ice Ice Baby
Imagine you are an ice queen, wearing a sparkly long gown and adoring icy blue eyes. Blue eyeshadows are always a favourite when it comes to winter makeup. And the best part is that there are so many shades of blue you can experiment with on your eyelids. It is fun and flattering and instantly changes the vibe of the whole look. If you are not into bright shadows, go for a subtle stroke of a light hue. Pair it with a blue eyeliner over the lid and a silver one under to enhance the icy beauty.
Berrylicious Everything
Even though berries are a fruit of summer, the colour is insanely flattering for winter makeup. It’s one of the few colours that looks equally good on almost every skin tone. Just find the right shade for your undertone and you are good to go. Eyes, cheeks and lips–all berries are the way to go this winter. You can wear an easy and subtle berry winter look for a casual day out as well as a whole glam berry look for partying with your girls all night–there’s a way to go all berry on every occasion.

Espresso Shots
Rich, warm and edgy–just like a perfect shot of espresso. This winter makeup trend is for the baddies who like it understated. The shade of brown is wearable in all seasons, but in winter it works like a charm. Especially the earthy vibe of it suits the frosty romantic vibe of a winter afternoon. Go for an espresso-toned smokey eye look for nighttime winter makeup. A deep brown shadow with a little bit of it smudged below finished with a bronze shimmer–now that’s a winter moment we will talk about.
Bejewelled Lashes
Ditch your basic black lashes for the glorious jewellery tones this winter. If you want to experiment with colours for winter makeup this new year, the most fun and exciting way to do this is to use jewelled tones of mascara. The best part? You don’t need to learn any additional steps or any new skills to master this fabulous look. You only need to replace your mascara with a colour like emerald green, royal blue or cranberry purple. Keep the lashes lush and full and not chalky for a perfect look.
Frost Glazed Eyes
A trend that resurrected from the early 2000s, frost-glazed eyes are the winter makeup trend we are thankful for. This trend screams Y2K, with a modern and mature twist. Frosty tones like icy blues and shimmering silvers dominate the colour palette as if you have just wandered Queen Elsa’s castle. And don’t be scared to flaunt this shimmery wonder in front of people. Embrace the shimmer with confidence and let them admire you.
