Going Out Face


This is my general going out face...not popping out, not out out...just out! (You know the skit!)

I thought I would give you a brief overview of the products I generally use for going out just to the pub or for dinner, along those lines. 

This is my no makeup, glorious face.

After primer this is what I smother my face in. First a bit of Boi-ing concealer by Benefit to cover any sneaky spots or dark circles. I'm not really keen on liquid foundation, I prefer something lighter, so I use this powder mineral foundation from Avon with a Ruby and Millie kabuki brush. As it's summer I add a bit bronzer just under my cheek bones and some highlighter.

Based. I'm sure I'm not actually this orange...

Next on to eyes. I use a pencil liner on my top lash line and on the outer corners of my lower lashes aswell as inside the waterline. I also use a liquid liner over the top, I find it easier over pencil as I don't have a very steady hand, and although it looks less dramatic it is less messy! I use an eyelash primer to thicken and lengthen my lashes before mascara and fill in my brows with a bit of pencil. For lips, I generally have something in my bag for a touch of moisture and colour throughout the evening such as Barry M Cor Balmy.

There, Ta-da, done! Now hair, get changed and ready to go out...but not out out!
