office to party beauty

1. One word here – bronzer. The best places for application; forehead, nose and chin. Creates a natural instant glow, gets rid of the pale, drawn-out colour.

 

 
2 For sexy lashes, a heated eyelash curler is a must. When combined with a good mascara it creates a dramatic effect. Try: ModelCo heated eyelash curler; this is a global phenomenon for a reason.
3 No time for perfect eyeliner application. Don’t worry, try drawing several dots along the top of your eyelid, then smudge them into a continuous line using a cotton bud or your finger.  The result is smouldering party eyes. Apply more or less, depending on the look you want to achieve.
4 Do not neglect your hands and feet. Frequent manicures and pedicures are a must. Clean your engagement ring and any other jewellery you will be wearing.
5 For last-minute versatile grooming use age-old Vaseline. This tried and tested product has been used by generations. Our grandmothers knew what they were doing here, it can used just about anywhere – glossing lips, tidying eyebrows, add shine where you want it to, and if you run some along your calves, it catches the light and creates an illusion of slimness.
6 Varnished nails make you look instantly better. Try the latest fast-drying polish to complete the look. It can be done and dry within 10 minutes so perfect to do on your break at work.
7 Nothing beats bad hair days than an ‘up-do’, and it works a treat in transforming a daytime look into night. For speedy style, working from the crown, simply take random sections of your hair, backcomb a little at the roots, use a little spray at the roots, and smooth out the rest, pin hair back where it suits your style. As this is a loose modern look, so don’t worry about making it perfect. The result should be sexy-stylish.
8 Another idea is to try the ever so popular dry shampoo which hit the market about 1 year ago.  Spray it on, and wha-la. Style as desired.
9 Rosehip oil works wonders for brightening the complexion, and try using a bronzing cream – lasts the night, but beware if you are prone to breakouts and use wisely.
10 Desperate measures: Most work places have shower facilites for staff but if you are crunched for time or no facilities available freshen up with a couple of baby wipes, a squirt of deodorant and scent. If you forgotten your toothpaste, chew gum or chew on a couple of mints for instantly fresher breath.
