Your New Year's Eve Makeup Essentials Covered
Before you apply any makeup, we recommend prepping your skin with a hydrating face cream. This will help make your makeup last longer and give you a fresh glow. We also recommend priming your skin beforehand with a couple of spritzes of setting spray.
Best Party Makeup Products For New Year’s Eve
Hourglass
Veil Hydrating Skin Tint, £ 49,00While it’s tempting to opt for a medium to full coverage foundation on New Year’s Eve to ensure your makeup lasts as long as possible, we recommend opting for lighter layers. Not only do formulas like Hourglass’ Veil Hydrating Skin Tint have impressive staying power, but they leave your skin looking and feeling fresh all night long. Leave it to your setting spray to fix your makeup in place.
