This is the look I wore New Years Eve, definitely a lot of fun to wear. It was gold and glittery, very festive with tons of black to make it pop even more. Here’s how I did it:

1. I used the MAC paintpot in Painterly as my primer, applying it all over the entire eye. I find this works better when working with glitter as it stays creamy for a little longer which is important when you need the glitter to stay put the whole night.
2. I pressed MAC Reflects Gold onto the lid using my finger. Using your finger allows you to pick up more glitter at a time and doesn’t get glitter all over your brushes.
3. Next I applied Carbon in the eye crease using the MAC #217 brush. I kept adding more and more until I got it really dark.
4. The highlight color I used for under the arch of the eyebrow and the inner eye corner was MAC pigment in Vanilla. I love this color for adding more visual drama.
5. The liner I used was Smashbox Jet Set in Black and on the inner rim of the eye I used MAC eyeliner pencil in smolder.

Now you can use whatever lipcolor you choose, in this case I used Nars Chelsea Girls. I liked it for the contrast it created with a dramatic eye and nude lip. Give it a try, let me know if you have any questions!!
