Step By Step Glitter Makeup Tutorial*

By Hollysbeautybox @hollysbeautybox
With Christmas right around the corner, we're all in need of a step by step glitter makeup tutorial, which is why I was more than happy when House Of Fraser asked if I wanted to collaborate with them to show you how to use some of their products to create a festive glitter tutorial.

So, let's get started!
As we're going to be working with glitter, I'd recommend priming the skin but otherwise leaving the rest of the base until after the eyes are done.
Moving straight onto eyes.
I prime my eyes by using my concealer all over the lids and blending using my fingers before moving onto eyeshadow.
I was sent the Bobbi Brown Evening Glow Eyeshadow Palette to use. I first used the bone color (lightest shade) all over the lid to set the concealer, before working the gray shade into the crease. I built up the shade before placing the black into the outer corners and blending the two shades together.
Using a clean brush, I then used the light bone shade all over the lid again and then went back in using the original brush to blend it all together.

Next up is the fun part - GLITTER EYELINER. I'm using the Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner in 'Midnight Cowboy'. It's Christmas, it's the time of year when we can go a little crazy with glitter, so I'm embracing it by doing a winged glitter liner!
First off, I'm using a black liquid liner to create a dramatic flick, followed by applying a thin line of glitter liner on top. It can be a bit fiddly, but as you can see, worth every minute!
Next up, I applied some mascara and some falsies before moving onto complexion.
I'm keeping it pretty glowy and bronzed on the skin, so I'm using my normal foundation (Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation) and using Benefit Hoola Bronzing Powder instead of blush. I'm not necessarily contouring with it, but I have blended the contour areas and worked it in a bit.

Add a sweep of highlight (the one I've used is Bobbi Brown) and I've put on a red lip which is essential for the festive season. I've used the Bobbi Brown Art Stick Liquid Lip in 'Rich Red'.
Et Voila! I hope you like the look and have enjoyed this post! Check out House Of Fraser for the products I used.
