Icy Girl: Top 3 Winter Glam Products

The crisp cold air is starting to give way to the wintery season ahead of us. I updated the ‘icy girl’ look for this year to reflect the subtle shift in trends. Last year’s ’icy girl’ look can be found here if you’re interested. Wondering what ‘icy girl’ means? Well, it is a look to reflect the shimmering & cool tones of winter. With glistening snow & rosy cheeks on the way, here are some of best products to get the ‘icy girl’ look this season:

Colourpop Stone Cold Fox Eyeshadow Palette ($35)

A cool-toned palette that fits the wintery-tones of an ‘icy girl’ is Colourpop’s Stone Cold Fox. There’s a total of 30 cool-toned shades filled with mauves, neutrals, & greys with a mix of mattes & shimmers for endless possibilities. Colourpop’s formulations are among the best in terms of pigment & blending, which is why I highly recommend this palette. The versatility of the palette can also be used year-round as it is an overall staple cool-toned neutral palette.

NYX Cosmetics Buttermelt Pressed Powder Blush ($11)

Winter tends to bring out rosy & pinky cheeks. I love the NYX Buttermelt Blushes because of the range of pinky shades, & the slight shimmer built into the formula. The formula definitely earns the ‘Buttermelt’ name because the blushes are buttery smooth & layer seamlessly on top of other products. For a bold blush look, I love layering the Buttermelt Blush over a liquid blush for the ultimate rosy cheeks. 

Lipglass Air Non-Sticky Lipgloss ($25)

Glossy lips are a must to finish the iconic ‘icy girl’ persona. The winter air is drying on the lips, so the right lip gloss will add a juicy & moistured look. MAC’s Lipglass Air Non-Sticky Lipgloss line is perfect on its own or as a lip topper to keep your lips shining. Also, it’s non-sticky property helps prevent the windy air getting any of your hair stuck to your lips! If you ask me, that’s a win-win for the cold winter air. Want the gloss to stay on-theme to winter? Try out the shade ‘Frozen’ for a sheer shimmery pink.
