Even if you’re usually a keep-it-simple, nice-and-neutral taupe or nude eyeshadow person for 11 months of the year, December is the time to trade it in for something significantly more statement.
The only drawback is that as it’s a once-a-year treat, our eyeshadow application skills are as rusty as our sparkly palettes and best eyeshadow sticks are dusty, so whipping up a statement or smoky eye can be quite time-consuming. It’s worth it though – but only if it stays put past the starters.
