Here are a few, affordable cosmetics I picked for you, for you more natural beauties out there, to get the Jessica Biel’esk look!

Add some drama by sculpting your brow. Try Maybelline NY (color match to your brow).

Next, naturally darken your lips! Try out Color Sensational The Buffs Lip, also by Maybelline. I recommend the color “Espresso Exposed” for your holiday party! Remember, rich colors look impactful, and appropriate!

“The Dancing Queen”

Julianne Hough


Here is a snap of the Dancing Queen herself…. I’m really loving Miss Julianne’s Grammy-glam look from a few years back for some 2014 holiday makeup inspiration! It’s totally fine to take inspo from the past – gorge always looks gorge – right?!

This Past week, I worked some hair and makeup magic for Julianne and Derek Hough’s mom, Marriann (blonde on the right), as well as Mark Ballas’s mom, Shirley (brunette on left), for the show Dancing with the Stars! Talk about real life dancing queens!

Here are a few my top choices to pull off your inner dancing diva this Holiday season! One of my absolute favorite colors trending in makeup this season is a gorgeous plum hue! I just think it’s Plum Perfect!

Smoke-out your eyes with this palette using the Black on your top and bottom lash line, and then blend in the purple and pink for your smoky vixen eye! Two of the hottest colors this season! To glam it up even more, check out MAC cosmetics Glitter Mix Pigment.

I used this on a bridesmaid a few weeks ago for her eye makeup, and then added a little to her lips! How much more sparkly and festive does it get?
