Quick Tips for a Linda Navidad

Disclosure: this is a sponsored post in partnership with Target for the #LindaNavidad campaign. All thoughts, opinions and glitter body rolls are purely my own. It's been a long and stressful month already, and as a busy working Mami, I look forward to a fun, festive, and most importantly easy holiday season. The last thing I want to worry about is what to wear (y'all know my struggles).

I have found that sometimes, the simplest looks such as a little black dress works wonders during the holidays especially if worn with a fun, holiday inspired red lip. I'm not much of a makeup person but like most women, I love to dress it up whenever I can and find a beautiful lip to be the easiest and yet the most impactful look.

When Mexican beauty queen-turned-TV host, Ana Patricia Gamez, sent me this beauty box on behalf of her partnership with Target, I was excited to see a few lip colors right up my alley.

Here is my version of how to make you gloss really stand out. Because I love the simplicity and the shine of a gloss, I decided that this would be my go to look. I have to admit that Jai and Yanira were right about me needing more lippies. This is my new fave. Sheer berry.

The best way to jazz this up for an evening look is to dab a sparkle shadow (pick any, I like the night lid in the Pixi palette, check it out below!) and gently dab over the gloss with your finger. This not only adds sparkle but alters the color depending on the shadow color you use. It takes just seconds to do and looks finished.

Seriously, I can throw on some makeup now as I'm running out the door and look a little put together. This makes me happy.

Do you know what parrandas are? It's the Latino version of Christmas carols with a little louder music and a bit more dancing. So, in the spirit of the holidays, join me as we go on a parranda and visit my friends to learn more about these beauty tips. Because Lord knows I can use them!
