Get Holiday Party Ready With These Glittery Beauty Products

Holiday parties are right around the corner and we cannot think of a better reason to add some shimmer to your shimmy.

Holiday parties are right around the corner and we cannot think of a better reason to add some shimmer to your shimmy. For twinkle toes (and fingers) try Sephora by OPI's Merry Me! ($9) or Flurry Up ($9). Mix a little loose glitter like Make Up For Ever Glitters ($13 each) into your lip gloss, or apply over your lipstick to make lips look fuller. A glistening shadow over lids, such as Victoria's Secret Glitter Eye Gel ($20 each) or Nyx Glitter Cream Palette ($6), are both great for creating sparkly effects on the eyes. Just make sure to avoid a major beauty blunder through careful application and delicate removal. As for your hair, treat your updo with a glitter spray, like this one ($10) from Sephora Collection. And if your holiday ensemble bares a little skin, give it the diamond treatment with a lotion like Urban Decay Midnight Cowboy Body Shimmer ($28).

Reader Review of the Day: Nexxus Maxximum Super Hold Styling and Finishing Spray

Finding an extra hold hairspray that doesn't look too stiff or flaky can be a challenge.


Finding an extra hold hairspray that doesn't look too stiff or flaky can be a challenge. Reader Lbirk has been one busy reviewer these days. Thanks for submitting all of your opinions, lady! Here's what she had to say about Nexxus Maxximum Super Hold Styling and Finishing Spray ($13.50).

Even though Nexxus uses descriptions like "Maxximum" and "super hold," which conjure visions of helmet head, this fine mist spray provides a really touchable hold with lots of shine. It doesn't flake if you need to brush through it for a style refresh during the day, and it doesn't build up. Very nice.

Reader Review of the Day: Aussie Catch the Wave Sprunch Hair Spray

If you have curly hair, it's probably taken you a while to figure out your perfect beauty regimen.

If you have curly hair, it's probably taken you a while to figure out your perfect beauty regimen. Reader Ineedcaffeine uses Aussie Catch the Wave Sprunch Hair Spray ($3.30) in her daily routine, and here's why:

I have very curly hair, and I am very particular about my whole process. I often use different shampoos/conditioners/products each time I wash my hair, but Sprunch Spray is the only thing I use on a daily basis. I use it after I unwrap my hair from a t-shirt, before I go to bed, and before I leave the house in the morning. Just a couple of spritzes, and I get some serious body, hold, and delicious smell. I cannot recommend this product highly enough.
