2The the fact is, he won't know. He won't understand how many hours you spent get yourself ready for the date. He won't know how many dresses you tried on and decided against. He won't understand how much time you put in the gym. He won't know of the nights you spent getting advice from your friends about how to act. He won't realize that you already decided what you would eat before he even looked at the menu.

But there's something he will know, and that is how great you appear.

If there’s something women have over men, its access to some good makeup, along with a little know-how about using it. If you’ve looked after the first, we’re likely to take care of the second. Here are some strategies for easy night out makeup looks.

Natural Look

The look: feminine unfussy. Hair: tousled. Your makeup: Sheer. Your date: We'll need to inquire about this later.

It doesn't have to consider a lot of effort to make something look effortless. Ditch our prime shine red lipstick (keep in mind that stuff?) and merely use sheer tint around the lips and cheeks. Cream blush is the easiest to apply and fewer pigmented lips mean it's not necessary to worry about ensuring he doesn't wind up wearing more of the lipstick than you're.

Bring curl to your lashes by using a curling mascara rather than a lash curler. It's quicker and it won't crimp your lashes. Grab a smoky black pencil, line your vision, and give it a little smudge; remember, you probably did just wake up like this.

Words of Advice: Perform a quick blot test before entering the restaurant. Candlelight may be flattering, however, you might want to save greasy for the meal.

Smoky Eyes

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Here’s one step by step no-fail method to make sure your date is smokin' hot.

Primer: It’s very easy to visit in the smoky eye look to the raccoon eye look. One false move and you've got gone from hot to hot mess. Do damage control by applying an eyeshadow primer. It will hold your shadow in position and prevent creasing and smearing.

When you have dark shadow in your eyes, the last thing you want is dark shadows beneath your eyes. Eliminate under eye circles having a creamy concealer. For best results, choose something with a thick base, when compared with a liquid one. Use your ring finger to apply.

The dark shadow: No, this is not the Dark Shadow as in the American Gothic soap that aired in the 60's, nor is it the movie starring The actor-brad pitt based on it. This is actually the dark shadow that's going to make your spouse swoon in your date.

When you are looking at picking the “dark shadow”, it does not have to be black. It can be gray, plum, dark blue or forest green. Just choose a dark color from your palette and sweep it across your vision. Then apply shadow for your lower lash line using a small angled brush.

Smudge: Here you are the artist. Smoky eyes should not have any harsh edges, so you want to make certain your smudge is perfectly shaped. Use a Q-tip or smudger brush to combine the cisco kid in to the crease of the eye using the windshield wiper motion. Then arrange it into your bottom lash line as well.

Definition: Now that you've got the color down, it's time to provide some definition. Take your smudgiest black pencil and drag it across your top and bottom lashes, making sure there is no exposed skin peeking through. If you're feeling extra hot, line your inner bottom lash line to have an even more sultry look.

Nighttime Lip Effect

It's exactly what the pros are calling the “nighttime lip.” It's seductive, its alluring, but you might want to make sure you wipe them back before you decide to hit the sheets.

To obtain the nighttime lip effect, buy a colour of your choosing (dark and seductive, preferably) and a lip pencil to complement. Prep lips using the pencil, making sure to stipulate and complete the mouth therefore the dark pigment won't budge. Top lids with shimmery gold shadow and define the outer corners of the eye with a sable brown color. Finish off with a heavy-handed coat of mascara and get lippy.

Charming Blush

Nothing just like a hint of a blush to create out your girlish charm. Although blush is used on the cheeks, it is the eyes which are the real stars from the show. See Ashley Grahame for inspo. The key to creating the perfect blush is understanding how to work with your eye shape.

The road to the softly flushed look begins with smoky eyes. When applying shadow, avoid getting it over the crease, and don't allow it to extend outside your brows. Then blend the perimeters with wild abandon. FYI: This is not a one brush job. Try a small and densely packed brush for sweeping on the powder and fluffy one for softening the pigment around the edges.

Winging It

Cleopatra first applied the cat eye to ward off evil, but now it appears as though its stirring up more than its warding off.

Sometimes, it isn't by what you need to do, it's about the various tools you've within the box. If you're living in a perfect world the eyeliner, it will glide across your vision within a few minutes, with perfect precision and stay on through the night.

In a far more realistic world, you may make a wicked cat eye by drawing a triangle at the corner of the eye and filling it in. For best results, draw three dots and connect the dots when creating your triangle. It'll keep your fail step to the absolute minimum. Remove any excess with a cue tip, and you've got cat-eyes that Elvira would be proud to put on.

Peach It Up

Orange you glad the times of orange glow makeup are over? These subtler monochromes are proving the peach is the new orange.

The trick when applying peach makeup is to keep it sheer, rather than saturated, which means blending colors over the eyes using neutral tones of peach and apricot. Bring it plus a coral lipstick along with a muted peach blush around the cheeks and you will have a peach of a date.

Jeweled Lids

Looking for a sexy eye that with a pop of color? Smokey eyes needn't be black. Tones of amethyst, sapphire, and emerald can seem to be lighter and look more romantic. Apply color all over the lid and also the lower lash line. Intensify the colour along the lashes using a pencil liner of the same color.

Fringe Effect

When it comes to false lashes, long and thick is going to do the trick.

When applying, don’t look straight into the mirror, instead, place the mirror up for grabs so you’re looking down on it. This way you’ll have the ability to see what you're doing, and also the strip will fall right on the lash line.

Mascara Massacre

Lash glue dried up? Got mascara? You don't always need falsies to visit big in your lashes. Ensure that it stays real. Dusting them with a coat of translucent powder and topping it with two coats of mascara can produce a web of seduction. Declump with a lash comb and balance with bold eyes, neutral blush, and gloss.

Light it Up

How think the Hadid sisters obtain glowing cheeks? It may be genetic, but we think it's more prone to be highlighting powder.

To obtain the Hadid look, with no genetics, shade the tiniest corner from the eye and brush on mascara. Add a little definition under the cheeks. Use a silver powder along your tear ducts, and a streak of pearly highlighter down the bridge of your nose.

Blend until smooth as well as your lit!

How Lo Are you able to Go?

Want the reduced recorded on J.Lo's look? J.Lo has the golden tones that define sexy. If you are lucky enough to have the J.Lo complexion, here's the how-to on how she does it.

Start by covering your lids inside a shimmery neutral, go heavy around the black liner and apply half a tube of mascara. (LOL, but we mean don't apply with caution.)

Dust some bronze along your cheeks and select a gloss in the caramel/toffee range. Now, that you have J.Lo's signature look down, all that you should do now is learn her dance moves.

Are You Blue?

Do you like a blue hue? Brilliant blue eyeliners have existed for since the beginning, it’s only now that people dare to put on.

One benefit of blue eyeliner is it speaks by itself. You don't need anything else to make a statement.

In to cop the Janelle Monet look, take a darkly pigmented black liquid liner and trace it along your top lids. Incorperate your turquoise/ blue/ aquamarine/ lapis Azul eyeliner (gel, liquid or pencil) and trace it all the way in which across your lower lashes, from cornea to corner. Finish it with a ton of a mascara, a light dusting of rose gold blush and your lips sheer.

Rosy Gold

If peach is the new orange, rose gold may be the new peach. Here the color is the star, so you don't have to do much to make it look great and there's a spot for it on every part of your body. Dust it on eyes, use it in a pencil, highlight your cheeks and drag it across your lips, go by helping cover their a dazzle.
