The holiday season is a time for celebration, joy and time spent together with our loved ones. It's also the perfect opportunity to express your style and add a little extra glam to your everyday look. Whether you're attending a family gathering, a romantic date night or a festive gala, your holiday hair and makeup can make all the difference in how you look and feel. Here are some holiday hair and makeup trends and ideas that are in style this season.

• Effortless waves. Soft, romantic, effortless waves are a timeless and classic choice for any holiday event. Start by using a curling iron. Once the curls have cooled, brush through them lightly. Finish with hairspray to keep them lasting all night.

• Sleek ponytail. For a chic and elevated holiday look, consider slicking your hair into a ponytail. This is the perfect style if you are looking to show off your statement earrings or high neckline. This style looks best with straight hair.

• Add a bow. An easy way to get a ‘holiday look' is by adding a bow to any hairstyle. Bows are in this season!

• Add Glitter. Tis' the season to sparkle. If you're going to embrace glittery eye makeup, the holiday season is the time to do it. Shimmery eyeshadows and glitter liners in festive shades like gold or silver can add an extra pop. Keep the rest of your makeup understated so that your eyes take center stage.

• Bold Lips. A bold lip can instantly transform your look for the holidays. Deep reds are a good choice to add a touch of sophistication. Pair it with a neutral or subtle eye makeup to balance the overall look.
