Quick Fixes for Common Holiday Makeup Mistakes | Elena Rachitskaya

Contact | PR Inquiries [email protected] Holiday makeup isn’t about trends — it’s about understanding why something doesn’t work and knowing exactly how to fix it. In this video, I’ll show you the correct application step by step. This is perfect for you if you: Have hooded eyes Struggle with smoky eyes making your eyes look smaller Tend to apply too much foundation or concealer Aren’t sure where to place blush or bronzer Want bold holiday makeup that still looks balanced Prefer education over trends This is my last YouTube video of the year, and I’d love your feedback. Tell me what you want to see more (or less) of next year: tutorials, mistakes & fixes, comparisons, recreations, skin prep - or something completely new. Drop your wishes in the comments!
