Happy New Year!

If you're like me, than chances are you're probably going to a club or a party for New Year's Eve. The last thing you want however is a makeup meltdown! So just follow these steps to look gorgeous all night long and into the New Year!

1. If you plan on wearing glitter on your eyes, try to keep the rest of your makeup matte. This way the attention is focused on your eyes and you don't end up looking like a disco ball.

Note: be sure to clean up any excess glitter with scotch tape

1. Remember that glitter and shimmer show up really well on camera, so don't apply it where you don't want it! Overapplying it will make your whole face look shiny and that's not what you want for good pictures.

2. To keep your lipstick lasting throughout the night, be sure to line your lips, then apply lipstick, blot, and apply a second coat. For extra long lasting power, after applying liner, place a tissue over your lips and lightly dust on loose powder before applying a second coat.

3. Prevent your eyeliner from melting by applying a matching eyeshadow on top to seal in the liner.

4. If you have oily skin, be sure to carry blotting papers with you to blot off the excess before taking pictures.

I hope you all have a safe and Happy New Year! See you in 2010!
