New Year’s Eve calls for the kind of celebratory dressing that’s as effortlessly cinematic as it is camera-ready. Luckily, Gucci’s decades on set as an editorial makeup artist have armed her with a running list of big night tricks that hold up to the occasion. Here, her 3 tips for your easiest New Year's Eve makeup prep yet.
For Eyes That Smolder (Subtly!) in Black Kohl....
Trace pitch black pencil—like the limited edition kohl liner in the Eye Love You Edition—around the waterline and right along the upper lashes for subtle, smudgy definition that wears in perfectly as the night goes on.
For Lipstick That Lasts Past Midnight...
Sweep on your favorite matte lipstick—Gucci uses Tomato from the Les Rouges palette here—then dust a fine veil of Vital Pressed Skincare Powder in Translucent to set pigment before applying a final layer of color. If you like a glossy finish, slick on a bit of tinted lip balm for a subtle hydrating sheen.
