Night Or Day

NIGHT
Bathed In Moonlight
Choose the different shades of the night - like soft blue, sheer silver, powder violet and cold rose.
Face
Start with very clean skin and apply a light moisturiser. If you have oily skin, using your clean fingertip, dot an oil-absorbing liquid foundation onto your skin; blend with a clean sponge.
To set the make-up and prevent shine breakthrough, apply a translucent powder. Stroke the puff against the powder, then press and roll the puff against the skin. Look for a translucent shade that has a tone that matches your own skin tone. Apply a cold rose-toned blush to the apple of the cheeks and slightly back towards the hairline.
Eyes
Stroke a lavender blue eyeshadow stick across the eyelid, from the base of the lash to just above the crease of the eyelid. Go lighter as you get onto the brow bone. Dust a little on the side of the nose bridge. Then, with clean fingertips, stroke a very sheer pale but silver shade on the upper lid, stroking up towards the brow bone. Blend the two colours so there are no hard edges.
Take a little bit of the blue eyeshadow on the tip of an ear bud and press close to the lower lash line. Create a thin line if you don't want to go too radical and heavy. Take a dense blue-black eyeliner pen to line the upper lash line. Draw the line out in a squiggle at the end of the lash line.
Fan the lashes as you apply mascara. First, take the lash applicator and press down on top of the lashes, then stroke the applicator up and through the lashes.
Lips
Outline the lips with a burgundy lipliner. Use a violet-blue liquid lipstick with a wand on the lips. Start in the center of the lips and fill in as you move towards the edges.
DAY
Sun Drenched
This look is all about flaunting skin that has turned to a bronzy gold in the sun, goddess-like eyes and a radiant face.
Face
Apply concealer around your nose, on your chin, under the eyes and just inside the eyes where they meet the nose. Follow by applying a matte foundation all over the face using a sponge or brush. Set that with a light dusting of translucent powder that matches your skin tone.
Apply bronze powder blush to the apples of your cheeks using a blush brush. Sweep the colour up toward the outer eyes. Next, dip your brush into translucent powder, then sweep it over the blush to diffuse it so you won't see where it starts and stops.
Eyes
Take a nude shade of eye shadow that matches your skin tone. Blend with a little shimmer powder and sweep this over the eyelids, going lighter towards the brow bone. Dust a little under the lower lash line.
Using a thin, black pencil eyeliner, line the inside of the lower lash if you want to add a little definition. If you have small eyes, apply a line on the upper lash line.
Fill in brows with a medium brown shadow using a very hard, angled brow brush. Curl lashes and apply mascara twice to upper and lower lashes.
Lips
On your hand, mix a dash of the following shades of liquid lipcolour: Dark gold, taupe, light copper and dark rose. Use your fingertips to apply this blend on to your lips. For a bit more drama, take a spot of gold and just add at the centre of your top and bottom lips.
