A Season of Inspiration - A Beauty Guide to the Holidays

Stand out by looking effortless, that’s what this season is all about! Not only is it time for apple cider and family gatherings, but it is that time of year where it feels like magic is in the air! With all the colors changing, the weather becoming cool and crisp, it is so easy to get wrapped up in it all! Here is how to stay stylish and fashionable without the stress!
Step one, think RED and CLASSIC! With the colors changing, be the POP the world needs. Fashion wise, the colors that are in are red and chocolate brown. For the styles, we are going to a throwback! 1970’s plaid and Victorian style collars are the rage. “But you said effortless, how is THAT effortless?!” Easy! For the Victorian feel, think high collar. With the air becoming chilly, it’s the perfect time to break out those high neck sweaters! For the 1970's look, think classic. Think classic beauty. Think timeless! What fashion icons come to mind when you think of those things?
Step two, NATURAL! We’ve talked about fashion, but what about the makeup?! Have no fear, we've got you. Keeping with the effortless theme, the makeup trend right now is a very clean, fresh face. The focus is skin, which we love here at Poise Makeup Professional. The key to any great makeup is a great foundation. Once your skin looks great, you can go as glamourous with your look as you want. This season, however, think great foundation and a kiss of blush. It’s that simple! If you want to bump it up, a soft smoky eye is the way to go. Don’t forget to finish your look by doing a loose curl, or loose wave, hair style. Like we said, effortless!

Although this time of year is magical, there is an issue that comes up a lot...dry skin. Is there a way to look effortless and fight off dry skin at the same time? How can Poise Makeup Professional help you achieve these looks?
For starters, grab our HD Crème Foundation! This Best Creme Foundation is full of botanical based ingredients, including Vitamin C. Vitamin C helps brighten and nourish the skin, perfect for that clean and fresh look we mentioned. Our #1 Top Selling Foundation plays well with others, which means it is blendable and buildable. Two great colors to finish the look off with blush are Manhattan and Malibu. If you are wanting to bump up your eye look, make it a little more glamourous, try a smokey eye! Our Pressed Mineral Eye Color Palette is perfect to provide you with several options. You can keep it classic with Timeless, Runway, and a pop of Moscato for your highlight color. If you are wanting more of a bronze look, try using Brickell, Whiskey, and Ritz! The options truly are limitless.
