5 PARTY MAKE UP ESSENTIALS

Friday party? Heading directly from office? Make up definitely is an art and requires time, and lots of products too. But there are times when we are short of time or we have to directly hit the club from office and sometimes you are just not in a mood to paint your face...lol ….in fact I would say a balance is more important. Few products in your make up, and that just makes it all to create a “less is more” look.

In this post of mine, I am gonna talk about 5 basic make up products which will suffice those situations. Off course these are not all but these would be enough to glam up just-so-dull look in minutes. In my next post I’ll talk about Saturday party make up essentials when mostly you have ample of time.

1. FOUNDATION – rush to your office restroom and dab few dots of foundation on your face and using just the tips of your fingers spread them evenly on your face in a dab.. dab and circular motion. 

The MAC studio fix foundation, if found correct match to you complexion works wonder. That is very important and also tricky; make sure you get your foundation correctly matched to your skin tone

TIP: Instead of applying it on your wrist, always match your foundation by applying it under your eyes and along your jaw line.

That would be enough in itself without a concealer or pressed powder.

2. CONTOUR KIT- Highlighting and contouring is a newly found fad among all the beauty gurus. You would hear about it everywhere. Well deserved I would say! Proper highlighting and bronzing completely changes, and jazz up your entire make up. I think I would talk about how to highlight and contour in detail in one of next blogs. 

For now just swipe a bit of highlighter in the center of forehead, swiping it down to the temple of nose and a bit below lower lip. For bronzer, start along the hair line, swipe along the cheekbone, and then along the jaw line.

Anastasia Beverly Hills contour kit is one hit for everything. Everything you require. Make sure you have one in your kit. That is all you require for proper contouring.

A cheaper dupe of it can be found here.

3. GLITTER/PIGMENT/EYE SHADOW- Aah! Now these will completely glam up the look. Take som glitter pigment in a bright color and dab generously on your eyelids.

MAC’s glitter pigment in “reflects turquatic” gets thumbs up from my side for this.

4 MASCARS/FALSE LASH- Now all you need to enhance and open up your eyes is two coats of mascara or/and a false lash. Both the products should be chosen according to the type of lashes you have. There are numerous mascaras and lashes that are available in the market; from volumising (for thin lashes) to lengthening (for fuller but short lashes) etc.

MAC’s zoom lash is my personal favorite for now, also I would be soon posting some reviews about some mascaras.

Want a little cheaper than their site. Buy it here. There are just two left.

I would say a bit of glitter and mascara/false lashes and you are ready for the party.

5. BRIGHT LIPSTICK- ohh yeah, my favorite part. Complete your look by applying a bright lipstick like MAC’s “All Fired Up” or Limecrime’s Pink Velvet or anything that is neon/bright or coral.

All Fired up is from their retro matte collection, and is not available now. 

If you still want it, this is where I found it cheapest for now. Get it here

Limecrime’s pink velvet is available for a bit cheap here.

This is my personal favorite make up, as anyways I don’t like applying all the things altogether.   This would hardly take 10-15 minutes, pair it up with you little black dress and bingo! You are all set to rock the party.
