The Christmas season has finally arrived, and it comes with absolute confidence to adorn our eyes with glitter. It is useless to discuss it; it comes with the season. Luckily, there are fancy ways to apply highlights to your eyes that look grown-up and gorgeous. Below we have shown different examples of creating glitter eyes.

The first look is a subtle look at the season’s smudged shimmer finish around the eye rims.
