January 26th, 2017 at 2:00am

With cold weather and finals all slamming you at once, you will begin to feel the pressure of being a college student in the Northeast. Most students during finals week are drowning themselves in coffee and pulling all-nighters in the library. However, this beauty decided that she needed a break. When she is overwhelmed, she does her makeup to feel confident and ready to tackle on the day. If you need the perfect look to help you get through finals and ready for the holidays, then you have come to the right place!

For this look, she used Touch in Sol metallist liquid foil in the color Adelio as a base for her eyes. Next, she blended the colors Red Ochre and Venetian Red on the outer lid and blended through the crease. Then, she added Primavera on the lid and finished it off with Vermeer on the inner corners. All four colors used are from the Anastasia Beverly Hills modern renaissance palette–a must have! These colors perfectly accent her beautiful hazel eyes and makes them pop against her fair complexion. To brighten up her already glowing face, this Fashionista used BECCA in moonstone and champagne pop to highlight her cheekbones. Finally, she used MAC viva glam in the color AC5 on her lips to add the final touch.

This Long Island native is used to the harsh winds and freezing temperatures of New York, but she overcomes the winter chill in a white knit sweater and a bright red Michael Kors vest. In her monochromatic red outfit and makeup, she is ready to sleigh all winter long!

Don’t forget to study hard, stay warm, and look hot!
