Getting the Holiday Look with Mary Kay® #MKTrend

Are you ready for the holidays?  Do you have your picture taken for Christmas cards?  If you said yes to either one, you are in luck with the great new looks from Saucy Glossie blogger Lindsey and Mary Kay that brings back that vintage, classic look.  I love all the looks ranging from Flapper Chic to the White Hot Suit to Silver Screen Siren.  Check out all the vintage holiday look with Mary Kay here.  I received a really nice complimentary Mary Kay make up set to inspire my interpretation of the look.  I had all the tools I needed to recreate while adding my own flare to the favorites.  I can honestly say that I wished I had somewhere to go for the Silver Screen Siren look but nothing says I have to go anywhere to achieve the look.  Luckily, I have an older daughter that I was able to apply my "creation" on her with a vintage Flapper Chic style for her Christmas card pictures she took.

For starters, I had her use the Mary Kay® make up remover which is wonderful because it's non-greasy unlike others that I've used.  We used the Mary Kay® Foundation Primer Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15* to protect her skin. It went on smooth and helps your make up stay one longer.  Next, we started with the Mary Kay® Translucent Loose Powder.  I loved the container because it allowed you to twist the top open to shake out the amount of powder you want to use while being able to re-close it.  This is always nice so you don't have powder going everywhere when you open and close the lid.  I used a great blend of shades in dark hues highlighted in white with the Mary Kay At Play™ Baked Eye Trio in Tuxedo.  To complete the smoldering look, we outlined the tops of the eyes with Mary Kay® Eyeliner in Black, and finish with Mary Kay® Lash Love® Mascara in Black.  We kept the eyes for the pictures less smoldering since they were taken in the daylight.  She normally wears darker eye make up and with just an extra amount of eyeliner around the rims and darker shades on the lids, she could wear this out on the night.

Mary Kay® #MKTrend - Subtle but natural look

To accentuate her eyes while not taking away from her cheeks and lips, we used Mary Kay® Mineral Cheek Color in Shy Blush and Mary Kay® NouriShine Plus® Lip Gloss in Café au Lait.  The best part of all was the brush set as my daughter was just saying how she wanted one.  They are soft where they need to be soft and harder for application such as lining the eyes.  The Special-Edition Mary Kay® Lash Spa would make a perfect stocking stuffer or gift for your loved one.  There wasn't one product that I didn't like or love. Here is my look using the same products and hues.

My Mary Kay® #MKTrend Look

I'm still trying out the Mary Kay® Lash & Brow Building Serum® so I'll have to provide a later update on how it works but I can say compared to a couple of other brands I have tried, it does not irritate or blur my eyesight so that is a huge plus!  It's easy to apply and can't wait for the results.  I also like the Mary Kay® Lash Primer and Mary Kay® Lash Love® Mascara in Black as it really added volume and depth to my eyelashes.

A few of the other products I fell in love with and that completed the package are the Mary Kay® Eye Primer, Mary Kay® Lip Primer and Mary Kay® Makeup Finishing Spray by Skindinävia.  This is the most amazing package of 'make me beautiful' products I have received and I'm sold on Mary Kay®.
