There’s nothing better than some play time after a long day of work. The day may have been stressful in itself but not knowing what to do with your makeup right before you head out to the bar can make it even worse. Lucky for you, we have some tips that can help freshen up your look in no-time.
Freshen up your base. Unless you’re wearing the best foundation ever made, your base probably moved a little. Or a lot. Always have in your purse a little sample container of your favorite foundation for times like these as well as disposable makeup sponge so you can apply makeup wherever. Apply a light layer and to the areas where you need it the most.
All about the eyes. Usually when we think of a night time look, the eyes usually come to mind. There probably won’t be enough time to go all out with a smokey eye look but there is time for a cat eye winged liner. If doing a cat eye seems too complicated, just smudge some black liner on the root of the top and bottom lashes for a sultry look. Don’t forget to re-apply mascara as well.
Add a pop of color. You want to look lively after a long day so adding some color to your face is key to achieving the look. Whether it’s red, pink, a Bordeaux color lip, pucker up and wear it well. Take some of the lip color and dab the slightest bit on your cheeks for a natural flush if the lipstick makes your face look drained.
