While winter is known for classic Christmas festivities, these traditions shouldn't be applied to your looks, as this is the best time to go bold with makeup. As we've shared in our LBD Makeup Tutorial post, a pop of color to your eyes can complement even the simplest of outfits.

This is why a chic chunky-knit sweater is great paired with bright eyes. Winter is a great season for experimenting with your eye makeup, as you get to explore the various colors of your palette to partner your knitwear for every occasion.

For instance, lively blues go well with neutral-toned knits while mesmerizing metallics are perfect for sweaters with striking colors. Need a pro-tip? Lavender is a universal eyeshadow color that looks lovely on practically anyone.

Look #2: Flushed Cheeks + Cozy Coat

The cool winter temperatures might have you looking pale or even washed out without you knowing. Thankfully, you can achieve a fresh and warm-looking glow this season by giving your cheeks a faux flush.

Charming flushed cheeks go especially well with different textures on your winter layers since it's a natural look that can work well with them.

Whether it's a classic dusty rose color or a vibrant coral hue, you can make layering extra fun this season by playing with different blush shades to match your favorite outerwear pieces.

Look #3: Cat Eye + Knee-High Boots

There's nothing more alluring than a classic cat-eye look. This winged eyeliner technique has been tried and tested for decades, and anyone who wears it looks ten times sexier with minimal effort as well.

Plus, its quick application is perfect for the cozy cold winter. However, what makes cat-eye liners a must during this season is that they can make you look irresistibly captivating even while bundled up.

Although there are a lot of clothing options that will keep you covered out there, the perfect match for cat eyes this season is bold knee-high boots.

Whether they are worn with a pair of jeans and a sweater or even a knitted jumper dress, a pair of these sleek boots will not only harmonize with your cat eyes, but it will help you catch everyone's attention with your overall stylish look.
