Day To Evening Makeup 💄✨️

[Mellmars1185]

This thread is inspired by an event I went to recently. I had time to come home in between the day and evening portion of the event and I ended up redoing my makeup for a slightly more bold look! Post all of your day to night makeup looks, products or advice here!

I don't really change my base, but I try to bulletproof it with skindinavia and Danessa Myricks Beauty Yummy Skin Mattifying Water Powder Serum with Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid 1.01 oz / 30 ml as much as possible.  If it really needs a touch up, I use a tip I've learned at a Sephora class back in the day.

1. Use a mist to melt down my make up
2. Go in the areas that need a little love with a concealer
3. Buff in a powder foundation
4. Hit in again with a mist to keep it from looking cakey

This usually works pretty well, and I do this in the daytime, too if I have to mask at work and need to touch it up.

Another thing I usually do is change my lip color, especially if I wore a matte lip.  I apply a gloss over the leftovers and voila, day to night.

If I'm too lazy to bring products, I might go to Sephora.  I've gotten a feature focus service to bulletproof my base once and it was great.  The feature focus is like a piece of a makeover, you can pick something to bump up, I usually go complexion because it's more bang for your buck.  Another thing is get lashes, which definitely adds "oomph", plus you get to keep the lashes thereafter.

@Mellmars1185 ! Finally , so sorry! Life. 😭😘 A few of my thoughts when I have to manage this!

First choice is to at least wash my face if I can’t do eyes too and at least redo that. If not I usually do this little routine:

Refresh my face with a very light application of a tinted moisturizer or tint like DIOR Forever Glow Star Filter Multi-Use Complexion Enhancing Booster or DIOR Forever Glow Maximizer Longwear Liquid Highlighter 017 Nude or any highlighter. I also probably need a light sheer concealer touch up. Bobbi Brown Skin Color Corrector Stick gives a dewy fresh look. 

At this point I probably don’t have blush on anymore so I reapply a tint like HUDA BEAUTY Blush Filter Soft Glow Liquid Blush Black Cherry as the first layer. (If I do then I probably just add a pop of cream blush.)  Then I go in with a cream blush like MERIT Flush Balm Cream Blush Apres over that. (More is more at this point?! 🥴🤣) If I really need to drive the point home I then add a powder blush like Kosas Blush is Life Baked Talc-Free Dimensional + Brightening Blush Hype or a light touch on top of cheekbones with Westman Atelier Super Loaded Tinted Cream Highlighter Peau de Rose . 

For the eyes, I probably have started out with #charlotte tilbury sophisticate palette (don’t see on Sephora- oh no is it gone?!) as a neutral base. DIOR Diorshow 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette 669 Soft Cashmere is another great neutral one. As it’s so neutral I can layer Charlotte’s Rock Chick or any grey palette over it and it still works for a smoky look.

As I use a brown linerILIA Clean Line Gel Eyeliner Dusk during the day it works to then just go over it with black smudged out as a smoky look or navy liner to make my eyes pop more. I am loving the new DIOR Diorshow On Stage Crayon Kohl Liner 254 Blue and YSL Lines Liberated 24 hour blue liner. Blending is a must with all of this so it doesn’t look too messy but I also don’t like too much of a precious smoky look vs a smudged one. Next comes a fresh layer of Iris&Romeo Mini Lash Up Peptide Volumizing, Curling & Lengthening Mascara Friesian Black . I really love it because you can add to it any time during the day and the way the brush ends works to push up lashes I never need a curler. 

Lastly for lips- always a red even with a bold eye - go big or go home 😆. I probably have remnants of a stain from daytime red- Givenchy Rose Perfecto Hydrating Tinted Lip Balm & Gloss 37 Rouge Grainé or MERIT Signature Lip Lightweight Matte Lipstick Power . So I usually add a balm, wipe it off, then apply something like ILIA Lip Sketch Hydrating Lipstick + Lip Liner Crayon Night Bloom which has amazing staying power, or DIOR Rouge Dior Refillable Lipstick 964 Ambitious or the new TOM FORD Lip Color Lipstick Unzip for a vampy look. A less precise but helpful liner over it all helps seal it all in and give a polished look too. Kosas Hotliner Hyaluronic Acid Contouring Lip Liner Extra is very comfy or for filling in all over , over a balm as well. 

A light dusting of powder or highlighter powder is the perfect finish. Givenchy Prisme Libre Illuminating & Color Correcting Loose Powder 03 Voile Rose or Givenchy Prisme Libre Illuminating & Color Correcting Loose Powder 02 Satin Blanc gives a sophisticated finish to it all. 

(If not needing a dramatic evening look I would just reapply the same day shades over the Dior Star Filter Booster and some fresh lip!) 

For the hair I may spritz some water, refluff/ dry and add styling cream or spray like amika Rising Star Hair Volumizing Finishing Spray 5.3 oz / 185 ml - it’s so light and nice even for short hair . Quick spritz of perfume and done! Voila! Usually only takes about 15! 💞

@Sunnysmom Thank you so much for sharing! I like that your whole day to evening transition takes about 15 min! The Huda Beauty blush shade looks beautiful. I really want to try that formula! I am curious if you are able to apply the Iris & Romeo mascara over the mascara you already have on? 

[Sunnysmom]

It really does just take about 15 @Mellmars1185 ! Phew. Lol. Yes I can layer this I & R mascara over any of the ones I normally wear or if just over more I & R. It’s almost like that mascara revival idea from MAC I think it is? That’s so good too. I forgot about mentioning that one but I prefer to use this one to get more color added. 😊

Now I just need more places to go so I can do this little bit zhuzhing up! 🤣

I love this thread idea! Although I recently saw a meme (of course. Can’t find it now) that said something like: 

“Magazines in the 90’s convinced me that skills for day-to-night makeup was going to be a much bigger necessity than it actually is!” And I thought, that’s so true!

Thanks for the tag, @Mellmars1185 !  I don't go out much.  When I do, I touch up what I have on and I may switch out my lipstick. 

[Cissy63]

I recently was a guest at a wedding I made some adjustments for a bolder look in the evening.

Evening

Spoiler

When I got home after the ceremony I changer my eye makeup. For the day I used the lighter shades in the HUDA BEAUTY Empowered Eyeshadow Palette .
In the evening I used PATRICK TA Major Dimension III Matte Eyeshadow Palette and then went in with the deeper shades in the same Huda palette. I used a brown/red shimmer shade on the eyelid from the Pat Mcgrath Celestial Nirvana Palette

I also switched up my earrings! I had too much fun getting ready ☺️

[Titian06]

Wow, you look stunning, @Mellmars1185 ! 🤩
