It's that time of the year where our calendars are getting filled with social activities from festive dinners and buffets to parties. After getting gifts prepared and outfits planned, you might just be all out of festive spirit to think what makeup to wear. Well, we've done the thinking for you! Here are some cute and dreamy Christmas makeup looks to try this year:

P.S. Pair the eye makeup looks below with aegyo sal to make the eyes look bigger and for bonus kawaii points. Find out how to accentuate this under eye fat in a natural-looking way here.

#1 Santa's Hat Eye Makeup

Let's begin with a classic Christmas icon - Santa's hat. Start by priming your lids with a thin layer of eyeshadow in a neutral shade. This will help the colours pop and stay in place all day long. Next, apply a cosy brown shade to the outer corners of your eyes to add some depth.

Black eyeliner can look a little too bold for this soft girl aesthetic, so go for dark brown eyeliner instead. Create a thin winged line on your upper lid and line the bottom too for added definition.

Now, it's time to draw on the Santa hat. Grab a white eyeliner and carefully draw a short and thick line on top of your winged liner. Then, using a red eyeliner, draw a triangle shape just above the white line. To complete the look, add a "pom pom" at the top of the triangle. Finish off with curled lashes and your favourite mascara, and voila, you're done!

#2 Gingerbread Man Eye Makeup

If you want something even more playful, try this adorable gingerbread man eye makeup makeup look.

First, apply an orange shade on your lids and blend in a brown shade at the outer area of your eyes. Dab some gold glitter in the middle of your lids and in the inner corners of your eyes. Then, draw on a brown winged eyeliner. For a subtle festive touch, add a red liner on top of the brown liner and apply red glitter along your lower lash line.

Now, it's time to create those little gingerbread men! Start by drawing the outline of a gingerbread man. Fill in the shape and add eyes and buttons using a contrasting colour. If you feel like something is missing, draw a couple of snowflakes around your eyes by making a '+' and 'x' shape, then adding a 'v' on each line.

#3 Reindeer Eye Makeup

For a whimsical, fairytale-esque look, try this reindeer-inspired eye makeup look.

Create the base of this look by using a reddish-brown shade as both eyeshadow and blush. Apply it to your lids, the top of your cheeks and the sides of your nose. Pat on some gold glitter in the middle of your eyelids, along the middle of your lower lash line and in the inner corners of your eyes.

Next, grab a fine-tipped brush and dot on some concealer on the areas where you applied the blush. This will mimic reindeer spots and give your look an extra touch of whimsy.

Finally, with a medium brown eyeliner, create a winged line on your upper lid. To complete the reindeer theme, draw little "antlers" on the top of your lids.
