Mr Right has asked
you out on a date. In the excitement, read first-date butterflies, many ladies
fall into the trap of going overboard with their makeup. Looking like the
joker, out of a batman movie will definitely not help your chances of getting
to the second date.
Crafting the perfect
look is easier than it sounds. Here are a number of tips that should help you
along the way.
1) Focus on the occasion
Consider
the time and place. Wearing a dark Smokey eye look can make you appear over the
top for a brunch at noon yet will turn heads at an evening cocktail.
2) Go for what you know
Never try a new look
on a first date chances are it could go very wrong blame it on Murphy’s law.
Same goes for new
products.
3) Pick a good powder
A
good powder will help you look natural and keep your face from shining bright
like a diamond. Use high quality powder that sets in well with your skin tone.
4) Magnify your lashes
Guys
like girls with pretty eyes, so go crazy with the mascara. Feel free to wear 23
coats to make your eyes pop.
5) Check your teeth
Make
one or two steps to the bathroom to make sure you do not have any lipstick on
your teeth.
6) Touch up discretely
Keep
touch ups relegated to ladies rooms only. Powdering your nose in front of your
date destroys the illusion of “natural”-
can seem a little high- maintenance. Let’s face it, we want the guy to
think we rolled out of bed this morning looking all dolled up. Remember,
getting your make up right and looking good is more for you than for your date.
Looking good will do wonders for your confidence and reveal the beautiful warm,
fun to be with the person you are.
