During the holidays, we all reach for that extra dessert, bread, pastry, sugar cookie or our favorite drink! The extra sugar and processed foods promote bloating and that lovely red/pink blotchyness from drinking or the extra foods usually trigger extra hormones and...Ta Dah! Our skin breaks out.
Most of us don't enjoy putting on extra makeup or trying to cover up pimples & redness. A few extra steps, to make you feel less "cakey" or fake and my personal favorite, looking slimmer!

To look slimmer - contour those cheekbones! Add a few extra swipes of bronzer underneath your cheek bones, chin and across your forehead. Finish with blush and a setting powder to hold it all day and night.
Pimples and Redness - These two go hand in hand.
First, DO NOT pop the zit. It's so much easier to conceal when it's not popped.
Next - Use primer. I prefer a green based primer to help even out the skin tone.
Put on your favorite concealer. Try using a cosmetic q-tip, brush or beauty sponge to help covering the pimple/blemish.
Lastly - Apply a warmer or yellow based (undertone) powder to help hold on the concealer.
Remember, highlighting never hurts either ;)
Finish with your favorite lip gloss, mascara and you'll be feeling fabulous for any holiday party!
