The first red carpet event of the year is happening tonight at 9PM EST.  Hosted by the 2 Broke Girls starlets Beth Behrs and Kat Dennings (I'm a fan of Max lol), the People's Choice Awards has a star studded guest lists, which would mean that there will be some major beauty moment on the red carpet.

Celebrity Makeup Artist Amy Nadine forecasted that will be 3 major makeup trends:

1. The Metallic Sparkle Smudge

As Amy puts it, this is a reverse sparkly smoky eyes, so all the drama happens on the lashline and add the shimmer eyeshadows on top.  This look is simple to do too and she suggested to use the following COVERGIRL products:

T to B: COVERGIRL Clump Crusher Mascara, Flamed Out Shadow Pots in Molton Black (shown here, or try Melted Gold), Ink It! in Black Ink (shown here, or Liquidline Blast Eyeliner in Black Fire or Brown Blaze)

Still trying to figure out what to wear to tonight's countdown?  Well, my go-to last minute festive look is always bold eye liner and lips.  Check out a few of my picks:

Eye Liner

Stila Art of the Fine Line Stay All Day® Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner Set

Want to have some fun with your eyeliner and make sure they stay all night long?  This Stila set comes with 4 of their bestselling felt-tip eye liner along with a look card to help you achieve the party look you're looking for.  You'll have the choice to try out the midnight blue, the dark brown, and the moss green shade out, or all of them together. And Stila knows a black liner is every girl staple, so this set comes with a full size of the black shade.

RiRi Hearts MAC Superslick Eyeliner

Loose glitter might be messy to deal with when time is tight.  A better alternative might be glitter liner.  The RiRi Hearts MAC Superslick Eyeliner in Pisces Persuasion is a option.  Unlike traditional glitter liner, it comes with a felt tip applicator, which offers a greater coverage in this one swipe.  Like its name suggests, the formula is super slick that it glides on smoothly with very fine pearlescent glitter.  It's perfect to make your eyes pop.

L to R: Stila Dark Brown, Moss, Midnight, Intense Black & MAC Pisces Persuasion

If you live in the GTA, it's very likely that you have heard of or been to Luminato.  Luminato is a Festival of Arts and Creativity that happens every year in June for 10 days in Toronto, Ontario.  This year is their 6th anniversary and it is happening right now (June 8 to June 18)
