Day 9: On the ninth day of Christmas, my beauty ed. said to me, “If you’re going dancing, get inspired by Gatsby!”

The Look: ’20s Flapper

Get It: To get the vampy eye, makeup artist Gucci Westman layered cream and powder shadows for a “saturated, metallic color” then finished with a touch of gloss to add some shine. Keep playing up the drama by tweezing eyebrows into distinct arches, but don’t go full-out Garbo. Try Maybelline New York’s Brow Define & Fill Duo by Eyestudio, a wax pencil to help shape and powder for a naturally filled-in feel. Create the equally dramatic pout by using a chocolate-colored liner topped with a dark cherry lipstick and coordinate your polish. Dab on a little cheek stain and some skin illuminator for a slightly flushed look that says you’re ready to dance all night. Then pin your hair into a faux bob and actually do it!

Day 7: On the seventh day of Christmas, my beauty ed. said to me, “Here’s seven shades as deep as the sea!”

The Look: Jewel Tones

Get It: Take a bold, glam stance this holiday and like mods did at Monique Lhuillier’s Fall show. Makeup artist Val Garland said this blue and burgundy eye was a nod to Kate Moss’ 30th birthday party theme, The Beautiful and The Damned. Start with a rich purple shadow, brushing outward to the edge of your brows. Then add layers of a complementary blue shade to the inner eye, blending for an ombre effect. Heavily line your bottom lid and smudge for a more rock ‘n’ roll vibe à la Moss. Finish with a few coats of a volumizing mascara. Opt for a shiny teal polish, or top off your favorite color with a silver polish for sparkle.

Get It: To create the tousled look at Rodarte’s Fall show, hairstylist Odile Gilbert scrunched strands by hand, then used a curling iron to add a bend to select pieces. She followed with a spritz of salt-water spray like John Frieda’s Sea Waves, then dried with a diffuser. To finish and secure, cover with a light mist of flexible hairspray.

The Look: Crowning Glory

Get It: A simple way to up your holiday glam is with an ornate hair accessory.

To complete this angelic look without making it too precious, add a Bardot-esque cat eye with liquid liner.

The Look: Dramatic Eyes

Get It: Add a four shadow quad to your beauty arsenal to create a strong smoky eye for cocktail hour. Dark glittery hues – blue is a fresh take on black – make for a knock out statement.  Layer the darker shade building it up gradually to the lower lids and under eye and finish with a dust a of silver at the outer rims. Finish with lashings of black mascara and keep the lip neutral.

Day 3: On the third day of Christmas, my beauty ed. said to me, “How about updating your classic French mani?”

The Look: Graphic Tips

Get It: While everyone is donning the typical snowy white tips, play up your nails with a statement (and easy to create!) French edge. Apply a coat of a clear or natural shade base like Essie Mademoiselle. Then make a reversed “V” shaped line in the middle of each nail using one coat of a bold-colored polish (like the berry red, above, seen at Rebecca Minkoff’s Fall show). Recreate the same line using a coat of black or even white polish depending on how you want to offset the colorful shade or match your festive attire. Finish with a top coat to seal, and voila!
