How to Transform a Day Face into an Evening Face with a Special-Occasion Makeup

To who it didn't happen that after a long day of working, to get an invite for a dinner or a date ? Many women might hesitate because of being tired and feeling not ready or extra enough for an evening out. But, I will show you some tips how to transform your makeup quickly into an evening one, so you don't have to miss that event or date anymore. Few women have the time or energy to clean the face at the end of the workday and redo their makeup for a night out. Instead, they just want a few simple and quick tricks to make a transition from office to evening. Since lightning is often softer at night and the occasions are dressier, the idea is to make the face look a bit more dramatic than during the day.

Tricks

• Start with a touch of eye cream to smooth out existing concealer. Reapply the under eye concealer as needed. My favorite ones that cover my dark undereye circles are shown here.
• Apply foundation as needed to cover any blemishes and even out skin tone, especially around the nose. I would suggest that during the evening, you can even dare to use a darker tone of foundation.
• Use a blush that is slightly brighter than the one used for daytime look. Use it alone or as a pop of color just on the apple of cheeks.
• If skin is showing on the neck and chest, make it glow with a light sweep of bronzing powder.
• Use shimmer on lips, eyes or cheeks, to make the face look dressed up. Highlighter is such a perfect makeup product to be used during an evening out or a date. It makes you look so extra and glowing, but be careful not to overdo it.
• Switch to a darker shade of lipstick. If during the day, you like using a nude lipstick, during the evening you can dare using a red or burgundy lipstick. It will definitely add drama to your look. But be careful, when wearing a red or a dark lipstick, I recommend keeping your eyes simple. You can check for makeup tips when wearing a red lipstick here.
• Add drama to your eyes, by sweeping on a darker shadow as a liner or applying plenty of black mascara. False eyelashes would be a great choice for a night out. Also, smokey eyes are always sexy for night looks, but it fits better with nude or brown lipstick. ❗You can choose either a dark lipstick with simple eye makeup or smokey eyes with a nude glossy lipstick.
• Take care of your brows so they can look defined. You can follow some tips here. Also, applying white highlighter under the brow bone is also a great evening look.
• Pair shimmery bronzer with smoky brown eyes, bronze cheeks, and copper lips. Bronze makeup is my favorite look, especially during summer when you got a tan. Add shimmer to either lips or eyes, not both.
• Look playful with bright pink or orange lips. Combine it with a pale pink or apricot blush, and soft eye-makeup with several coats of black mascara.
• Use an oil-control lotion on oily areas of the face to keep it shine-free.
• Finally, Spritz on a warm, sensual fragrance, and put on a great pair of earrings or other accessories, such as hair clippers which are super in style this season.
