Finally celebrating again in an informal way with your loved ones: Christmas is the perfect opportunity to dress up again. Still looking for inspiration for the right make-up? This year, make-up is very much in line with the skinimalism and clean girl look beauty trends, which means: Less is definitely more!

Christmas make-up is particularly beautiful this year when it looks as if you have just returned from a winter walk in the snowy forest. To achieve this look, only a few simple steps are necessary.

In the first step, clean the face as usual and massage the day care into the skin. The skin is then prepared for the further make-up steps with a moisturizing primer. The primer offers the optimal basis for the light foundation, which is then worked into the skin.

The perfect foundation for this look feels light – like an extra layer of skin – and has a matte finish. If necessary, rework with concealer, for example to cover up dark circles or skin imperfections. This ensures a flawless, even complexion. Apply a few generous dabs of pink blush to cheekbones and nose and blend. Finally, use a shimmering highlighter on the cheekbones, bridge of the nose, lip arch and in the corners of the eyes.

The eye make-up can be a little more subtle with this Christmassy cold girl look. To complete the make-up, simply apply some mascara to the tips of the lashes and emphasize the eyes with some bronze-colored eyeshadow if necessary. A creamy, matt lipstick with a slight shimmer in cranberry or a rich shade of red rounds off the Christmas make-up. The fresh glow makes your face shine – no matter what gifts are under the tree.
