2022 is less than 10 days away, and here we are, still processing 2020 *sigh*. How does time fly by so fast? Anyway, keeping the mini-breakdown aside, we all know what the end of a year means — PARTAY! It’s that time of the year when the light’s get dimmer and the highlighter gets brighter. If you are looking for some New Year’s Eve makeup inspo to look like the fabulous queen you are, keep scrolling and don’t forget to thank us later.

1. A graphic moment

Graphic liners are such a fresh and fun twist to a classic eyeliner. They’re not only extremely chic but also one of the biggest trends of 2021. They add a zest to the makeup look — just pair it up with a red lip for up the drama factor.
2. Statement smokey eye

Smokey eye looks are statement-making and look so chic. This look has been a staple for New Year’s Eve and we still can’t get enough of it. It elevates any look and makes it instant high fashion. Just make sure to apply oodles of highlighter with it and you’re going to shine through the night.
3. Classic red lip

Whether you’re feeling lazy or are running super late because of the 3-hour solo concert you had in the shower, a red lip look is here to save the day. Just go for a nude eyeshadow with a subtle winged eyeliner. Brush your brows up and bronze your face for that sun-kissed glow. Grab your favourite red lipstick and highlight it with a gold-toned highlighter. This look is so versatile and can make you look anywhere from elegant to bombshell.
4. Dash of glitter and dew

Honestly, New Year’s Eve is nothing without the glitz, glam and glitter! No glitter is too much glitter on NYE so go for a cut crease glitter eyeshadow for that soft glam look and comp it up with a winged eyeliner. Finish off with oodles of highlighter and a nude gloss. This look is so effortless yet spunky, we love it!
5. Euphoria-inspired eyes

Euphoria is one of those series that deeply influenced the makeup trends this year and this look is one of them. The rhinestone eyes are to die for, so it only seems fair to waltz into a new year with these bejewelled onto our eyes to blind the bad juju of the forthcoming year. You can always add a pop of colour to your inner corners like blue, pink, yellow or green to this look. But honestly, this nude eyeshadow with brown eyeshadow eyeliner and rhinestones on top is all we need to live the extra life! Have a fabulous party, lovelies! xoxo

When I’m not working, you will find me talking about energy cleansing, binge reading books and binge watching Kdramas while trying to select the right shade of lipstick to go grocery shopping!
