Take your Daytime Makeup to Evening Time in 5 Minutes

Tis the season for those after work holiday parties!  It’s 5 o’clock and it’s time for a holiday party got to run by the liquor store and pick up a bottle of “something” , run down to your local Kroger or Central Market for a nice bottle of wine or pick up that fruit and cheese tray because no one likes to be empty handed at a Holiday party.  It’s all about “Giving”.  So give yourself 5 minutes to turn your corporate American daytime worker bee look into a nighttime festive diva!
During this time of hustle and bustle make sure your little makeup bag in your purse has these essentials to go from day to night. 
2 lip liners: 1 natural color (MAC sublime culture, whirl etc.)  And 1 a deeper clay earth toned color (MAC spice, 80%)
1 Mascara any kind but I love zoom fast black its extra black
2 lip glosses: a nice peachy pinky natural color and a nice plum or a dark reddish tone
1 blush in soft pink I like MAC mineralize in Super Duper Natural
1 Black Kohl Liner
1 Eye shadow quad with 1 dark 1 medium and one light color and a highlight/shimmery shadow
Here is your five minutes:
Daytime

Daytime

line outer corners of eyes

use your QUAD & Mascara

With your Kohl Liner add a v shape to the outer corner of your eye on the top and bottom lid.  Blend the line so it gently fades naturally.  Take the darkest color on your eye shadow quad and apply it to the outer corner of your eye.  Then take the shimmery shadow and add a bit to your lid and to the arch of your brow bone for a natural glow.  Now grab your mascara and apply a couple of nice heavy coats to your top and bottom lashes. Take the kohl liner and line your top and bottom waterline.  Add some more blush and top with a darker lip liner and gloss and your all set!!

Final look

Ready to party
