Easy! Just intensify your makeup and add a touch of glamour! In this video, I had my neutral mauve day look on and my foundation was mineral powder (watch how I apply my mineral foundation here). I explain more in the video but here is the break down.

EYES

You're going to add intensity (which basically means more color) to your neutral day look. Apply more depth to the outer crease with the same color you used for your day look and use a more prominent highlighting color on your brow bone. Finally, pile on the mascara for super sexy lashes. I explain more in the video.

EYEBROWS

Groomed eyebrows are essential for evening makeup. Most likely you'll be in artificial light, ie, restaurant, theater etc., so don't forget this important part of your face. Empty, hairless spaces will nullify all the work done on your eyes so get this right. Don't apply too much product though, just fill in the gaps. Use a shade that is 1 to 2 tones lighter than your hair color.

FROM DAY TO EVENING MAKEUP



CHEEKS


A little bronzer goes a long way in the evening. Apply it using the slim your face technique and this will instantly add a sun-kissed glow to your face. You can wear bronzer all year round, it's such a versatile product. Just make sure you select the correct shade for your skin tone and don't use too much during the winter.


LIPS

A great lipstick or lipgloss is a must for evening. If you do nothing else, do this. Elegant lips instantly say evening glamour. So, line your lips with a liner (choose a color that goes with whatever eyeshadow you're wearing. I chose a deep rich, matte plum which is perfect for the mauve/plum eyes I was wearing)
and the apply the lipgloss. If you use lipstick, apply a lipgloss over it to add a little evening sparkle.

And that's it. See how easy it is to go from day to evening makeup?
