A Christmas-themed makeup look for every zodiac sign

Christmas Eve is getting closer, and it's time to check off the goals we set for organizing these festive days. The gifts are wrapped, the trees are decorated, and, along with your fabulous outfit, we're sure you've also chosen tablecloths and ceramics for your holiday table. But is there perhaps one thing missing from this list? We're talking about makeup because, as we know, a good look must be complete in all aspects. If you haven't decided on the makeup to flaunt for the most sparkling holidays ever, no problem; there's a solution for everyone, or better yet, for all zodiac lovers. This is not the day to give in to Mercury retrograde, which, like a chess piece, is trying to throw a wrench in our plans. Choosing our beauty combination ahead of time will help us distract ourselves and face parties, dinners, and events with an extra boost. From "Dark elf makeup" to "Frosty makeup" to "Xmas eyeliner," here's a guide to not be unprepared for these festivities.

Aries: Winter Spice Makeup and Hot Cocoa Vibes

There's no noteworthy Christmas movie without a scene where the characters sip hot chocolate, perhaps near a tartan tablecloth or while wearing a cozy Italian-made sweater. These are the vibes Aries should seek during the holidays, strong and intense like melted chocolate. The most suitable beauty look for them could be the winter spice makeup, characterized by warm and enveloping tones, just like tree bark or a gingerbread house. To recreate the look, you'll need a contouring stick, a bronzer to blend on the cheeks, and a strictly brown lipstick. For the eyes, a nude palette, such as sand, taupe, or dark brown, blended with a lighter color, perhaps a shimmer, on the eyelid, and you're good to go! With these shades, you'll undoubtedly do justice to the energy of the fire sign, and this "hot cocoa" style will give you the right boost to achieve your goals.

Taurus: Sugar Plum Fairy Makeup

One of the numerous keywords of Christmas is undoubtedly sugar, in all its shades. Who better than the pink of candy canes can represent the planet of love? Taurus, ruled by Venus, is eager to revamp its wardrobe for the Xmas season, but maybe it's time to lend a hand in the beauty department. The sugar plum fairy makeup is one of the latest trends on TikTok for the holidays. It literally means "confetto fairy makeup" and is characterized by a super glowing finish. The dominant color is pink, preferably light and delicate, just like cotton candy or confetti. Let's see the steps to recreate this look. We recommend a light and moisturized base, enhanced with a liquid or powder blush in "antique rose" or "Barbie pink" tones. To be true fairies, the sparkle of magic powder is a must. Use a glittery gloss blended on a nude pencil for your lips. As for the eyes, go for a super glittery pink eyeshadow. A romantic and impactful look, just like those born under the sign of Taurus.

Gemini: Dark Elf Makeup

Gemini is the zodiac sign that best knows how to reinvent itself, and the holidays are no exception. We're not talking about a simple smokey eye or a more traditional Christmas outfit, but rather a bold and strong makeup, ideal for lively and curious personalities like those of the third sign of the zodiac. The dark elf makeup is a look that suits them perfectly, characterized by the use of dark and mysterious shades, such as emerald green, burgundy, and metallic gray. The beauty look we're proposing is inspired by the fantasy world and elves, with dark tones reminiscent of enchanting forests and moonlit nights. To achieve this makeup, you'll need a green eyeshadow palette, a burgundy lipstick, and black eyeliner. The secret is to blend the colors well and create a harmonious and mysterious effect, just like Gemini.

Cancer: Frosty Makeup and Silver Star Highlights

Cancer is among the most emotional and sensitive signs of the zodiac, and its ruler is the Moon. For this sign, the ideal makeup should be delicate and ethereal, just like a Louis Vuitton spring breeze. The inspiration comes from the frosty makeup, characterized by icy and pearly shades. The keyword is luminosity, which we can achieve with a highlighting powder or a creamy illuminating product. To recreate this look, we recommend a silver eyeshadow, a pastel-colored blush, and a lip gloss with glittery reflections. The secret is to enhance the cheekbones, eyelids, and Cupid's bow to give a radiant and fresh appearance. If you want to go the extra mile, add small silver star highlights applied with a small brush. A makeup suitable for the most sensitive souls, ready to shine like stars during the holidays.

Leo: Xmas Eyeliner and Gold Glitter

Leo, the fire sign par excellence, must not go unnoticed during the holidays. The Christmas look for them must be bold, radiant, and able to enhance their regal and magnetic presence. What better way to do it than with a touch of Xmas eyeliner and gold glitter? The eyeliner becomes the real protagonist of the look, adorned with golden details that recall the magic of Christmas. To achieve this makeup, you'll need a black eyeliner, gold glitter, and a volumizing mascara. The focus is on the eyes, and the liner can be applied following the natural line or with a cat-eye shape. The touch of gold glitter can be added above the eyeliner, on the inner corner of the eye, or on the entire eyelid for a more intense effect. The result? A look that captures the attention, just like Leo likes it!

Virgo: Xmas Eyeliner

If you were to imagine a black belt person in Christmas gift-wrapping or the best cookie decorator, that person is undoubtedly born under the sign of Virgo. Precision is indeed their strength, but is it also reflected in their makeup? The best way to find out is to dedicate yourself to creating the perfect Xmas eyeliner. Running out of ideas is not a problem to consider because there are plenty of inspirations. From candy canes to colored lights to mistletoe with red berries. Before creating these designs, we recommend creating a base with black eyeliner. It's time to unleash all your creativity.

Libra: Frosty Makeup

Aesthetic, beauty, and elegance are the key elements to delve into the air sign of Libra. But what is the perfect trend for those ruled by the fantastic Venus? From Washed Denim to denim eyeshadow in full 90s style, you can't escape this icy look. While some prefer the warmth of wood and hot chocolate, ice and its silvery magic still hold their charm. Frosty makeup, also chosen by Kim Kardashian for one of Skims' numerous campaigns, is the best alternative for this sign. The look is very easy to recreate! Just use a bright silver eyeshadow and blend it with a cool blue, then trace a super thin black eyeliner line. As for the lips, our advice is to use a brown pencil for the outline and a rosy nude shade. But be careful not to freeze everyone with your gaze after creating this super makeup.

Scorpio: Red Lips and Golden Eyes

Powerful and contrasting feelings are in store for Scorpio, but what could be more powerful than a pair of red lips? We often think that novelty and the search for something "out of the ordinary" give us an extra edge, but we must remember that classics can still surprise us. From Mariah Carey's music videos to the Mean Girls stage, red lipstick and golden eyeshadow like champagne bubbles remain the most iconic timeless combo. If you don't have a nice "Christmas" red in your makeup bag, no problem, NARS' "bad reputation" could be just what you need to create this timeless look.

Sagittarius: Purple Party Makeup

Green and red are not the only suitable colors for Christmas; some prefer a stronger and bolder touch to face the holidays. Electric purple is the star of the purple party makeup, the perfect trend for Sagittarius, characterized by a flexible, changeable, and extremely expressive nature. To create this look, all you need is a mesmerizing purple eyeshadow, such as "violet blueté métalliseé" by REM beauty, and a black or forest green pencil to blend into the lower eyelid. Stick to neutral tones on the lips, perhaps with a lovely greige lipstick.

Capricorn: Red Wine Makeup

"Uvas de la suerte": that's the name of one of the most appreciated Christmas traditions. It involves eating 12 grapes, one for each stroke of the midnight countdown bell. If some prefer this game, there are just as many who prefer to toast with a good red wine to celebrate the new year and promise to keep to their goals. Capricorns belong to this category, so perhaps it's an excellent starting point for their beauty look. Red wine makeup fully encapsulates these vibes. To bring it to life, simply choose a burgundy eyeshadow and apply a super glossy cream gel on top to give it a wet effect. As for the lips, they recommend finding a pencil in the exact same tones as the eyeshadow and using a cherry-colored tint in the center of the lips.

Aquarius: Snow Lashes

One of the main colors associated with Christmas is undoubtedly "white," which refers to the idea of purity but also to snow, an iconic symbol of this holiday. The stars advise Aquarius to give a chance to something that makes us wrinkle our noses a bit and suggest taking a risk to see what will happen. A great opportunity to take on the "challenge" in our makeup is Snow Lashes, the whitest lashes ever. This super trendy look resembles the aesthetics of the Snow Queen and can be recreated with a simple product—the white mascara, which you can find at MAC Cosmetics. If you're not afraid to dare, you can complete the eye makeup with white eyeliner to win the title of "zodiac trend-setter."

Pisces: Duochrome Eyes

The artistic, dreamy, and romantic vein of Pisces does not wait even during Christmas. Just like the scales of the animal from which this sign takes its name, a winning beauty tip for them could be to recreate the viral Duochrome Eyes seen all over social media. The only product you'll need is a Duochrome eyeshadow, a shifting eyeshadow that, depending on how the light hits it, reflects many different shades. A perfect example is the rarity trichrome by Layla Cosmetics. This almost dreamlike effect will give you the right boost to turn your dreams into reality. The holidays have just begun, but we're curious to find out what your Christmas beauty secret is that you recommend everyone to put under the tree.
