Tone Down The Shimmer This Season With Matte Grey Makeup Shades

Say so long to pearlescent gunmetal and chromed-out silvers -- matte grey is the hot beauty shade for the chilly season ahead! Matte nails have already taken the beauty world by storm, but now other makeup products are following in hot pursuit! From soft stone gray to rich chalky charcoal, there's something about matte grey that gives the face an unexpected warmer look than the more common frosty silver shades. While I've noticed that grey shadow seems to bring the best out of green peepers, it's hard to find someone who can't pull off a dark slate eyeliner in place of your basic black. Plus, mattifying your lids leaves room for shimmer elsewhere (ie: cheeks or lips) and helps ensure a balance so that your face doesn't end up looking like a shiny disco ball! Watch the slideshow for a series of grey shades to consider adding to your cosmetics collection!

Shine This Holiday Season With Frosty, Shimmery Makeup!

Every girl likes to add a little more sparkle to her makeup during the holidays! And why not? The key is to not make yourself look like you should be hanging next to that tacky metallic ball on the Christmas tree! Think subtle shimmer, not big specks of glitter. Also, it's best to stick to one feature to glimmer up, like lips or eyes. Try out this crazy shiny Dior lip gloss or this Laura Mercier frosty cream eye shadow. If you're following the mineral makeup craze, pick up Bare Escentuals Feather Light Mineral Veil - it's a fantastic finishing powder that has a slight shimmer and works on all skin tones. And don't forget your body - pouf a little Benefit Kitten on any patch of bare skin to complete the look! Check out the SLIDESHOW for our picks from the Hive, and have a little fun with frosty makeup this holiday season!
