Tip 1 – Blot and Mist

Use blotting papers or a piece of kitchen towel to absorb oil, then spritz a hydrating mist to revive your base. If needed, press a little powder foundation around the T-zone. The key here is to blot gently so that you’re not swiping  your makeup off.

You don’t need a full redo –  just revive what’s already working.

Tip 2 – Swap Your Lip Colour

A bold lip is the quickest shortcut from meeting-ready to merry-ready.

The easiest way to spice up your makeup look is by switching from a nude day time lip to a pop of colour for whatever festivities you may be enjoying after your 9-5.

Trade your nude office lip for a confident red, berry, or deep rose shade to instantly elevate any look.

This seasons hottest lip trend is a glossy lip paired with a liner this delivers hydration and dimension.

Tip 3 – Add a Touch of Sparkle Dior backstage glow

Use a  shimmer shadow or highlighter to amp up your look. These formulas reflect light and will add the perfect touch of glitz to your makeup in no time.

Placement ideas – tap onto your eyelid, arch off your brow and the inner corner of your eye to create a quick and easy holiday ready eye makeup look . For your cheeks – tap your highlighter on top of your blush for the most beautiful glow from within look.

Top tip – Skip glitter- think glow, not disco. You want to glow under the party lights, not compete with them.

TIP 4 – Festive Press On Nails
