by Alisa Gafur After reviewing all the new holiday lines that have come out, we've noticed several trends that define what's hot for the season. Here's an overview of some of the looks that will have you looking superfly for those office and family parties! For the Neutral Woman in all of us: We see a lot of neutral tones which can easily transitioned from day to night. A common theme, was golden or silvery highlights mixed in with these neutrals, to give a little extra something to your eyes. The accompanying look was a glossy neutral lip color for day (light pinks/plums and skin tones), which can easily be changed to a deeper rich red, wine or brown lipstick for a night look. Suggested products: Givenchy's Prismissime Eyes 9 Colors Eyeshadow in Tempting Chocolate ($53.00US). Gorgeous shades of brown with varying golden or bronzed highlights and Rouge Interdit ($26.50US) in Nude Shine (shimmering beige pink) and Rose Shine (shimmering rose). Too much? then go for Urban Decay's Sustainable Shadow Box ($36.00US): this eco-responsible bamboo boxed eyeshadow palette, has 10 best selling shades, with a great selection of neutral shades. For lips, try MAC's Passionately Red ($22.50 US/$27.00 CDN) in 3 Cool Lips:Lighter neutral to pink tones For the Drama Queen in all of us: Rich hues of grey, black and dark chocolate on eyes, all highlighted with bronze, silver and gold. Lips are clear, pink nude or beige nude and shimmering for day, and deep brownish reds and plums for night. Suggested products: Armani's Crystal Palette ($98.00US), Silver black, silver white, golden beige and golden white, you'll have everything you need. Pair this with the Armanisilk Lipstick #56 ($25.00US) a deep reddish brown, and you're ready for your night out!
