Every year, SeneGence releases something special for the holiday season. Sometimes it’s a special holiday makeup set sometimes it’s a collection of holiday scented glosses (2021).

But this year we were surprised with TWO full holiday makeup sets AND they are mini tubes, making them less expensive and perfect gift options for the holidays!

This look is created with the first set, “Merry & Bright,” which is a pink makeup palette that is so pretty even beyond the holiday season.

Tell me what you think!

The Merry & Bright Collection

Both of the 2022 holiday makeup sets from SeneGence contain 2 ShadowSense colors, 1 LipSense color, and 1 Gloss–all in mini tubes. That is a full makeup look in each set! But don’t let the names stop you from wearing these awesome shades all year long because they are so perfect for an everyday look.

Base Face

As always, I am using Medium Color Correcting Tinted Moisturizer as my base layer. But if you prefer fuller coverage, then you could use the MakeSense Foundation in your shade (email me if you need help color matching).

Color Correcting Tinted Moisturizer: Medium

MakeSense Foundation: Tan

ShadowSense for Eyes

How to Apply ShadowSense for an Ombré Look

Step 1: Apply the lighter shade as the base layer by dabbing with your finger all across the lid and up to your brow.

Step 2: Using the darker shade, add a natural smoky eye by applying to the outer corner and then bringing the product inward by dabbing with your finger.

If you are new to using LipSense the process might seem a bit overwhelming, but remember, this color is going to last ALL DAY! And after you have applied it a few times, you will be a pro. 

How to Apply LipSense for Long Lasting Color:

Step 1: Clean your lips and dry thoroughly.

Step 2: Shake LipSense tube well.

Step 3: Open the tube and wipe off any excess product from the applicator wand.

Step 4: With your lips parted place the applicator on one corner of your bottom lip and use a sweeping motion to brush the product on all the way to the other corner. DO NOT sweep back and forth.

Step 5: Use the same technique to apply the product to your top lip.

***Allow lips to dry for 5-10 seconds in between coats***

Step 6: Repeat steps 4-5 two more times (3 coats on each lip).

Step 7: Apply gloss all over lips to set in your gorgeous new color! (Apply gloss as often as necessary)
