Get a head start this season on creating your holiday eyes. Taylor Swift sure knows a thing or two about smoky eyes, even at such a young age. She also knows that having the right tools to create them is a smoky eye must. Taylor’s shimmering smoky eyes were created using the BFF Eyeshadow Palette from Get in Line, which also includes a set of stencils for a smoky eye and cat eye.

To accent your eyes with a shimmer, try applying to the inner corner of each eye and blending towards the middle. Use a smaller brush to keep the color in place, and press into lid as you apply. Use a shade in slate in the crease, and for added drama a touch of charcoal, but make sure to blend really well. You can also add some shimmer underneath the eye, and clean up any that has fallen with a Q-tip and a little eye cream before applying your concealer.

Get Smoky eyes that look their very best with the Get in Line  Eyeliner & Stencil Kit. The smoky eye stencil fits any eye shape and lets you create sultry smoky eyes, and cat eyes in minutes. To finish the look pair your smoky eyes with a soft lip in a nude or peach.

Happy Holidays!

It’s that time of year again, and the holiday parties are a perfect reason to have some fun with your make-up. Why not wake up your eyes with a silver shimmer shadow on the eyelids, and a darker shade to contour the crease when doing a smoky eye. Jennifer Lopez got it just right with her extremely smoldering eyes, finished with a strong black liner, and a few lash clusters applied to the ends of each eye.

To keep your eyeliner put, try using a black gel eyeliner instead of a pencil and line along the eyelids extending out at the ends. And of course no smoky eye would be complete without a well groomed brow, to get them, try Anastasia’s Brow Ex-Press Kit, $38 at sephora.com. The best eyebrow stencils for creating gorgeous eye brows. Keep your lips and cheeks on the soft side to avoid overpowering your eyes. A pretty neutral nude or pink lip color is perfect.

And there you have it! A beautiful look for the holidays, or any special event that’s sexy, sultry, and best of all easy to do.

Apple Cinnamon Scented Tin Candle by Glade

Bayberry Spice Holiday Scented Candle by Glade

Here are some tips on how to create your own holiday haven with new Apple Cinnamon & Bayberry Spice candles by Glade.

• Subtly Set the Mood: When entertaining, set a scented candle in the foyer to welcome guests with a unique fragrance and create a friendly first impression. Select a comforting scent, such as the Glade Scented Oil Candle in Apple Cinnamon, which has a soothing blend of spiced cider and homemade apple pie. Personalize each room by featuring a different scent.

• Lower the Lights: Dim lighting creates an intimate atmosphere for holiday gatherings. Turn lights low and use candles to create the desired effect. Line candles along the mantelpiece or the living room end table to achieve this look effortlessly.

• Trim the Table: Make fragrance your centerpiece. Create a stunning centerpiece with materials you already have on hand. Find a theme that matches your desired scent – candy, fruit, greenery orpinecones – and fill small vases with related items. To add holiday cheer, incorporate taller vases with bright ornaments, gingerbread cookies or peppermint sticks.

• Ready the Guest Room: Show guests you care about their comfort by preparing the guest bathroom ahead of time. Make it welcoming and peaceful with a candle from the Glade® Candles Holiday Collection. Help guests refresh from traveling with a set of towels and scented bath salts.

Candles run around $3.49 each.  They make fabulous house warming gifts or a thoughtful gesture to say “thank you” to friends & family:)

Glade Holiday Scented Candles are available in Grocery Stores in the air care aisle, Target, Walmart, Drug Stores & many more.

Happy Holidays…
