Glimmer & Shine is not just for the dress. Add a sparkling touch to your eyes by first layering on a shimmery cream shadow and then carefully pressing glitter onto the lids of the eye.  Another route -- Marc Jacobs Beauty Tonight Lights Glitter Dust or Sephora Collection's Glittering Eye Duo seen below.

New Year's eve is the perfect excuse for some serious red lips.  The secret to keeping this look chic and not messy -- line your lips with a red lip liner, then fill in the entire lip.  Layer over with your favorite classic red lipstick or red gloss.  Finally, blot to remove excess color with a tissue. 
Voila!  Sultry red lips to last you all night long. Our favorite reds:

Once again, New Year's Eve is a great night to take that extra step with your makeup.  Why not!?  Haven't tried a smokey eye? Give it a go with Benefit's Smokey Eye Kit found at Sephora and seen below.  We love this dark and shadowy eye look best when paired with a nude or pale lip.
