Evening Look in a Quickie!

All tired from the office but still have a party to attend?!
Who has the time and energy to go through all the makeup? Not me, that's for sure!

Here's a tutorial which can transform you from a zombie to a glam look in a jiffy. 
This is how I look after coming from office:
Yup it does look like I am the sole person in the office with all the work load, LOL!

First and foremost step, remove all makeup using a good makeup remover.
I use Baby Oil for removing face makeup and Body Shop's eye makeup remover.
After that I moisturised my lips and face using a baby cream and Avon Natural's Lip Balm.
Yes I am a big fan of baby products because they don't have any harmful chemicals and keeps your skin non-greasy and baby soft.

You must have noticed that I have pretty gross dark circles under my eyes. I took care of it by using a concealer.
MAC Studio Finish Concealer took care of that. You can find my reviews on this wonderful product here.

I used Revlon's Age Defying Foundation to lighten the redness of my face and don't forget to apply it on your neck.
For the cheeks I used a light pink shade (I used Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse) for that healthy glow.

For the eyes I skipped eyeshadow lined by eyes using a waterproof liquid eyeliner (Revlon's Colorstay Liquid Liner in Black) on the upper lash line and a water proof black kohl (Rimmel) on my waterline.
I used a white eye pencil (Elf) to highlight the inner corner of my eyes, the brow bone, on the cheeks and cupid's bow.

For the lips I used Rimmel's Amethyst Shimmer lipstick and topped it up with Neutrogena's Lip Soother for that glossy effect.

Lastly I used a matte powder for the finishing touch.

Thats it!
 Have fun!!

The 'Red' lips!

So many tutorials on red lips! And I am about to add one more! :-D

This is the quickest and the simplest red lip tutorial that can make you ravishing in just 2 minutes.
Yep you read it right, just 2 minutes.

My lips are very pigmented. Here's what I did:

I took a concealer, mixed it slightly with a non greasy cream and dabbed it lightly on my lips.
This way my lips gave a washed out look.

I then took a red lip liner and lined the outer rim of my lips.
I then lightly filled my lips with the same liner.

Once that was done I took my favourite shade of red and applied one coat of the lip color.

Dabbed it slightly with a powder for the lip color to last long and applied another coat of the color.

This can go great for the day look and it for the night just wait for a few seconds and apply a clear gloss..

Tada...! I am done.

Try this quickie and take your time in choosing your outfit.
