We’ve all been there: fabulous party time with NO time to get fabulous! I’d let you in on a secret: after one too many times hearing my husband’s “hurry up! We’re already late!” shouts coming up the stairs, I decided it was time to speed up the “making me look awesome process” before I seriously crippled him!
So, I found myself accomplishing the task in 5 easy steps, looking gorgeous and still having an intact husband. Here goes:
You’re in a rush. Specially after a busy day you want nothing but to look fresh and ready to roll, so...
First things first: Perfect smile. Apply your favorite brightening up lipstick and you will immediately see the washed out look flowing away from your face.
Second: Sparkling eyes. Glitter up. Nothing shouts party more than a few dabs of sparkles. Apply some glitter powder over your existing eye makeup. I found it works best if you just do it lightly over your eye or smudge your lashes. Don’t over do it or you’ll end up having your eyes looking like a blinking neon sign on your face.
So now that you have your pouty mouth all set and sparkly eyes in place, you are on a confidence spin like never before and feeling all pumped up for party time, don’t forget to..
Third: Refresh your base. Best I think is a powder foundation. Don’t go with the cream or liquids because they will just force you to start all the way from scratch to have them looking natural and fresh. Choose a lighter tone of powder than the one you are wearing to add a fresh and brightening effect to it.
4. Fourth: Get an instant glow adding some shimmer powder to give you a perfect polish. If you add the powder on the bridge of your nose, the top of your cheekbones and above your upper lip, it will bring focus to the center of your face and a perfect balance with your sparkling eyes and fabulous shiny lips.
And fifth, deal with your hair. If you have long hair, (and enough time for it) add some extensions to volumise your looks. But, since time is of essence here, grab some hairspray to keep it in check all night long. If you have short hair, you can either try adding a dry shampoo before backcombing it to obtain volume or you can go with some wax to make it look shiny and in spiky (that’s me!). If your hair is wavy, go with some gel to obtain a choppy finish. And if you got curls, mousse will do the trick for you. You’ll have fresh, spunky looks without stepping into the salon at all!
So there you have it. Five easy things that will have you looking gorgeous,
feeling sexy and glamorous and more than ever ready to party!
