Subtle Blush
Jewel Tone Lips
Jewel tones are the it hues for winter, and they look especially great with your subtle flush and foundation. Try Cargo's Essential Lip Color, which is deeply saturated with long-lasting pigment. It's rich and hydrating, and will make your lips noticeably plumper. We like the shade Napa, a deep berry.

Lip Stains
If you want deep color without deep drama, go for a lip stain. It's got slightly more sheen and transparency than a regular lipstick, and the By Terry lipstick will make you look like you've just been kissed by Jack Frost.

Smoky Eyes
Another big trend this winter is the smoky eye. It's incredibly easy to create: Just apply lots of dark gray shadow and thick black liner, then smudge. This kit by Too Faced gives you everything you need for the look.

Lilac Eyes
The other big trend for eyes this season is much lighter and more suitable for daytime. With a stylish lilac shadow, you'll feel that spring is on the way—even if you're in the midst of a polar vortex. Estée Lauder Pure Color Gelée Powder Eye Shadow has a fabulous metallic sheen, and goes on very smooth.

Long Lashes
Balance out your subtle makeup with long, luxurious lashes coated in a mascara that will last all day without clumping or smudging. Benefit's They're Real mascara is an award-winner that works.

Thick Brows
Cara Delevingne is known for her thick, shapely brows, and has made this trend more popular than ever. A flawless brow will always make you look polished, and Jane Iredale has a terrific Bitty Brow kit with color, brushes and transparent wax to keep everything in place.
