 Berry hues are having a major moment, and burgundy steals the show. These rich hues bring drama and sophistication to any look, almost like a power suit for your face. Burgundy can overwhelm easily so to ensure you create a look that's equal parts bold and wearable, follow these steps for your makeup. Pair a deep burgundy lip with soft berry accents on your eyes. It's one of those lipstick trends that never goes out of style. If you want to add depth and dimension to the lip, use a bright red lip liner. Keep the eyes simple, a slight wash of colour or a soft-smokey eyeliner in the same colour family works best. Get the look:

Pink is playful, fresh, and flattering on most complexions. Add some glitter to the mix and it elevates that look to party-ready status. Did I mention that it photographs beautifully? Think matte pink shadow to glittery eyeliner, the possibilities are endless. Opt for a pink gloss instead of matte lipstick for a youthful, plump lip look. Get the look:

 For those of you who love experimenting, think festival makeup but chic. A holographic liner or a duo chrome eyeshadow adds an ultra-modern twist to traditional eye makeup trends. They reflect light beautifully, creating an ethereal, multi-dimensional look making them perfect for those low-light selfies and videos. Don't be afraid to try a graphic liner instead of a conventional winged eye. Pair it with a subtle nude lip to keep the focus on your eyes. Get the look:

• Eyeliner: Lakme Glitterati Collection Shine Eyeliner in Invincible Purple
• Lips: Lakme 9to5 Overtime Shine Tinted Lip Oil in Everyday Nude
• Eyeshadow: Lakme Rouge Bloom Eyeshadow Pro-Palette

• Mix duo-chrome eyeshadows with a setting spray to create your own holographic eyeliner.
• Use lavender eyeshadow as a base to make pink and purple shimmers pop.

A sharp winged liner paired with glossy lips is minimalism at its finest. Perfect for bold outfits, this combination ensures your makeup is understated yet impactful. Add a touch of bronzer to your lids and cheeks for extra warmth and dimension. Get the look:

• Eyeliner: Lakme Ultimate Glam Eye Liner in Black

• Lip Gloss: Lakme 9 To 5 Matte To Glass Liquid Lip in Salted Caramel

  Pro Tip : Line your lips with a colour that's close to your lip shade and apply your gloss just to the centre of your lips for a fuller effect. Which one of these makeup looks for New Year's Eve made it to your list?
