After a long day at work, there’s nothing more enjoyable than meeting up with friends to clear your head. Here are our tips and a few essential items to keep handy so that you can go from a professional look to an evening look in just a few minutes.
Before touching up your makeup, quickly freshen your face using a wipe and Caudalie’s Eau de Beauté, which helps smooth features and tighten up pores for a more radiant complexion. You can also use it as a setting spray after applying your makeup.
Next, apply a compact powder, or better yet, a bronzing powder such as Lise Watier’s Havana, to give your skin that sun-kissed glow. You can even use the powder as blush to define your cheekbones.
The light golden hue of this talc- and paraben-free Bronzing Powder gives a beautiful sun-kissed glow to the face and décolleté, or simply accentuates a natural tan. It enhances the skin's radiance and provides an instant healthy glow, without the risks associated to sun exposure. This product has won the 2016 Elle Canada & Elle Québec Beauty Grand Prix for Best Prestige Bronzing Powder.
Use a highlighting pen, such as L’Oréal’s Lumi Magique, to correct dark circles and wrinkles and lighten under your brow and the outside corners of your eyes.
Make your eyes pop with a pearl finish shadow, black eyeliner and lash-lengthening mascara. For your lips, be daring and apply a rich, deep colour for a night on the town. Jouviance’s Le Stick is available in six shades. This coloured lip balm is comfortable to wear, has an ultra-glossy finish and provides long-lasting hydration.
If you have an oily complexion, don’t forget to slip a few blotting tissues, such as Personnelle Cosmetics’ S.O.S. Sebum Oil Blotting Sheets,into your purse. They instantly remove excess sebum, are 100% natural and come in a handy 50-sheet packet.
Say goodbye to shiny skin! Personnelle Cosmetics 100% natural S.O.S. Sebum Oil Blotting Sheets instantly absorb excess oil on your face. They eliminate shine without ruining your makeup or leaving powdery residue. Keep them in your purse to have them when you need them!
Spray on some dry shampoo to add some volume and shine to your hair, or freshen up your locks using a quick spritz of hairspray. You can also throw your hair back into a sophisticated updo or messy bun.
As for your clothes, simply switch up a few of your accessories (handbag, jewellery, heels) to transform your work attire into evening wear. For example, Khloé earrings with Swarovski crystals are the perfect touch to brighten up your outfit.
