Deluxe New Year: to toast to 2022, make-up is gold, red and black

Let’s start from the end, since, we know, every end is also a beginning, like the one we celebrate on the night between December 31st and January 1st all our life. So let’s say goodbye to 2021 forever and say “welcome 2022” with a beauty Post Scriptum: glitter, glitz and glamor they are not exclusive to New York, London, Paris or Milan but we can take a piece of them wherever we are. We also emphasize that we firmly believe that makeup on New Year’s Eve it shouldn’t be relegated to just one night of the year, especially considering we got robbed of last year’s partying. So, for those who intend to fully experience the holidays, here’s what to do to get in the right mood right away.

Gold, red and black for an elegant and deluxe make-up

First of all, the watchword is luxury, even if you stay at home, what has to emerge through the makeup is the inner diva that we all have inside. He confirms it Simone Belli, famous make-up artist of the stars, whom we met on the occasion of the Christmas Beauty Day he organized in the splendid setting of Palazzo Nainer in Rome (and which was attended by many celeb friends of his): “As far as make-up is concerned, this is the year of theatricality. We want freedom, today women have become better at putting on make-up and managing even the mask so they do not give up on eyes and mouth dressed in the colors of luxury: gold, black, and red, the nuances that are the absolute interpreters of the holidays, of elegance, of sensuality, of sunshine ».

But how to balance these three shades strong and obvious to create a beauty look that is impressive but sophisticated? “Gold is the absolute protagonist with illuminants to be applied on the cheekbones, temples, nasal septum, Cupid’s bow to enhance it, and also on the eyelids as eye shadows. In short, à gogo and in all shades, from yellow to bronze to accentuate that brightness that we have so much lacked. Since there is a lot of light it needs to be balanced with a lot of mascara nero, intense and material, to create a contrast. Go ahead too to black eyeliner between the eyebrows and perfectly drawn eyebrows ».

Hot lips

And the mouth? “Absolutely extreme and red. Of course, the red point changes according to the complexion. The Mediterranean ones can also dare a more burgundy, dark red, which increases the mystery and theatricality, the lighter ones focus on pure red. What is certain is that red lips transform in an instant and give a crazy allure. We gave up on it for a long time but now lipstick is back in the women’s clutch bag. A tip? If you don’t like extreme precision and have plump lips, smear the lipstick directly on the lips with your fingertip. You will get a “nibbled” effect taken directly from everyday life. When the lipstick goes away during the day, in fact, you spread what remains of it with your fingers. And the catwalks have immediately taken up this style which is very beautiful! », Says Belli who also gives a tip to make the eyes even more feline. “A little trick easy to lengthen the eye is to cut the final part of the false eyelashes and apply only the tail at the end of the eye ».

Once again, and more than ever, the makeup becomes an interpreter of the mood and, at the end of this particular and difficult year, we really want not to go unnoticed. So, let us all be guided by luxury to toast the new year full of beauty and hope.
