Chilly weather, snow on the streets and white chocolate mocha at Starbucks. You know what this means? The winter is here. Start marking your calendars : Advent, Christmas and the New Year are just around the corner. So while we are on the hunt for presents and decorations, let's not forget to look our best. Here are our picks of make up trends and tips for the winter.

MOISTURIZE YOUR SKIN.

This tip isn't for the winter only it should be applied all year around. In the winter, however moisterizing your skin is even more critical due to the harsh cold weather and the outdoor and indoor temparature changes. Something light like BB cream is a good to apply before putting on your make up.

COPPER AND SHIMMER EYESHADOW PALETTE. 

This fall make up trend also works great in the winter! A shimery eyeshadow of any color will give your look " a magic touch" If you are feeling brave, put on deep colors such as blue or purple. If you are person that likes a more subtle look then go for a cold tone like grey.A make up artist based in London Yasmin Khan, demonstrates how shimmery copper eyeshadow works wonders!

GLOSSY LIPS

If your make up is casual, glossy lips are a great way to turn a casual look into a festive one.

USE WATERPROOF PRODUCTS:

Anything waterprooff is your best friend in the winter!  Again Due to the temperature changes we don't want our make up to melt of smudge. 

A LIGHT TOUCH OF BLUSH ON YOUR CHEEKS

A warm peachy color on your cheek will give your face a nice subtle pop of color.
