I love winter mainly because of 2 things! 1. Because I don't sweat as much as I do in the summer lol and 2. because of all the cute things I get to wear! Here are my picks for what I think is in for this holiday/winter season! From the mittens to the type of face moisturizer good for winter, these are the must haves!

Cranberry and red lips are perfect for the winter time! Matte smokey eyes are also great paired with those dark lips or just alone. You can sculpt the face with some matte mauve blush.
