Your Perfect Holiday Party Makeup—in 10 Minutes or Less

Skip the smoky eye, and go gold this holiday season! Our beauty director, Kahlana Barfield, teamed up with Birchbox editor, Mollie Chen, to bring you this shimmery, yet subtle new holiday party look that relies on gold and copper hues to make the ultimate statement. "The makeup looks so much more natural than a smoky eye for those girls who don’t want to go all out,” says Barfield. Substitute black eyeliner for navy blue or dark green to set the look together. “It just gives you the impact, but it’s a little more unexpected than black,” she says. Watch the video above for the full beauty breakdown, and then head over to the InStyle Holiday shop on Birchbox.com

to shop all of the beauty favorites featured in the videos and more of our editor-tested essentials.
