01 Oh, Darling!

This is a classic look that makes a statement without the NYE glitter and shimmer that we are use to. I love the silver to black ombre eyeshadow paired with a dramatic red lip.

02 Subtle and Shimmering

Here's to new beginnings! Let's toast to this beautiful brown eyeshadow layered with champagne glitter. It is all about the eyes here; champagne glitter eyeshadow with a nude lip.

Singing, "Dance! Boogie Wonderland". This is giving me 70's glam for sure. Silver glitter on top of a black smokey eye with a dark mauve lip.

07 Cutting it Close

If you're looking for something unique and edgy, try a crease cut with black liner. And yes, those are crystals under her brow bone. Gorgeous!

It's the wing for me! I love a neat and crisp eyeliner wing and giiiirrrrl she is serving.

One of the newest makeup trends is finishing off your eyeshadow with crystals. If you're looking to be extra without using glitter and shimmering eyeshadow, this may be the look for you.

Be bold this New Year's Eve, and venture beyond the traditional black, gold, and silver eyeshadow. Vibrant colors like hues of blue are perfect for an evening look. Dare to be different in 2021!
