5 makeup must-haves to be a winter ice queen

Winter is the perfect time to mix up your beauty stash! The days of super bronze and festival glitter are over for now. It's time to let Princess Polly transform you into a total ice queen with their amazing beauty and makeup stock from brands such as Jeffree Star Cosmetics, Becca and Benefit! Plus you can save 10% on all of these gorgeous products with your UNiDAYS membership.

If liner could kill

There's nothing more killer than a seriously sharp liquid eyeliner flick, am I right? Get it nailed with L.A. Girl Cosmetics Black Fineline Liquid Eyeliner. Go fierce and bold with a statement flick or keep it short and sharp for a girlier take on the look. Make sure both eyes are equal and you keep those lines sharp! Hello, gorgeous eyes.

Liquidate your assets

Liquid liner is perfect for all seasons but especially in the incredible pale colours that Jeffree Star Cosmetics produce. This shade, Daddy, is seriously nude, pale and interesting. Ice queen vibes, here we come. Move over brights and bolds, it's all about the barely there lip.

Nude hues

Nude is the perfect place to start for your ice queen look. Get the base and then build up with glowing products! For a stunning shimmering base, use the Shimmering Skin Perfector Liquid Highlighter by Becca Cosmetics which gives a dewy, natural and sheer glow, mix with foundation for more coverage. Then, cover any blemishes with a great concealer and set with powder.

Up next for some serious shimmer is the Eclipse Skin Frost by Jeffree Star x Manny MUA Collaboration. When we found out that these two beauty powerhouses were collaborating we were more than excited. Let's talk about this be-e-a-u-tiful product right about now. This highlighting powder is "extremely pigmented, so get ready to glow like a lighthouse"! I mean, that's what we're talking about. Next, in line, the shade Mannequin is another perfect nude lipstick. It's described as "Nude's younger, darker sister. She's cool toned and looks amazing with a dark liner or by itself."

Bye, bye, bronze

Well, not completely. Obviously, we can't 100% give up on the bronze life but during the winter months, it can be time to tone it down and be a little more sculpt and a lot less tan. The Benefit Cosmetics Hoola Quickie Contour Stick is the perfect tool for getting sculpted, contoured cheeks at the same time as a little colour. Plus, it's seriously easy with the stick formula. Just swipe under your cheekbones and blend, blend, blend!
