As the song goes I'm every woman, it's all in me and yes, we wear a variety of hats and work in a variety of professions. Whether we're all business all day, running a business from our home or the executive director of our household and the local car pool coordinator, we are likely to have events that we must attend which require evening makeup. If you have enough in the bank to hire a professional make-up artist to apply your makeup, you're in luck because it can be a tricky and intimidating chore. If you're like most women, you'll be left to do it alone.

So, how do you manage the darker and dramatic shades that bring your features to life at night? Before you get too nervous, relax. Fortunately, the most flattering evening make-up also happens to be the easiest to put on. Try just one of these easy makeup tips to make you appear relaxed and pretty for those party pictures.

For your eyes, you can try a jewel tone eyeshadow like Teal Jewel or Sheer Aqua, or you can simply line your lids with an eye pencil in Emerald, Mint or Smokey Green. Color on the eyes are always refreshing, regardless of the time of year. ...
... Rich shades like Enchanted, Indigo, and Steel Blue Ice are both flattering and eye-catching; and as an added bonus, they compliment all eye colors. To create a smokier look, skip the shadow and simply line your lids with our Eye Perfect Automatic Liner in Ebony or Nautical, or simply use our kohl eye pencil in Onyx. Follow either of these with a few coats of Super Lash mascara and your party perfect eyes can be done in 5 minutes flat.

Moving on to your lips, swipe a coat of our very popular super gloss in Rhubarb for an ultra-brilliant transparent shine, or choose a deep lipstick shade like Ingrid or Janine and layer with super gloss in Femme; it's really up to you. Either option is quick and easy. Gloss does double duty by not only dressing up your lips, but keep them moist and sexy looking. It only takes a little to get the effect. A deep lipstick is dressy and the right shade will enhance your overall evening look. If you're not sure on the color that will compliment your look, then it's a good idea to consult with a makeup artist at the beauty counter who can assist you on getting the right shade you'll be happy with.

Rosy cheeks make you look happy and really bring a light to your face. With your powder and blush brush, you can wake up your skin and look flushed and exhilarated with minimal effort. To highlight your cheekbones, stick with softer shades like Kiskadee or Jacamar blush on the apples of your cheeks which adds a sheer rosy highlight. You can enhance the look by lightly dusting your face with a loose or pressed powder appropriate for your skin tone. If you'd prefer to go without powder, just brush on the blush of your choice on your cheeks and head out the door.

These quick and simple tips will ensure that you look great all night long. They are easy and anyone can use them.

Makeup artists have long been designing retractable lip brushes. For a quick touch-up during your night out, swipe your gold retractable lip brush over your lipstick before you leave the house and then pop it in your purse; no muss, no fuss. Use a matte lipstick like lip velvet in Jasmine or a long-wearing formula lip gloss like Royal Plum lip lacquer if you want to avoid the touch-up all together.

With the worry of sun damage on everyone's mind, bronzers have come a long way. Wearing a bronzer will give you that sun-kissed desired effect, and you are in control of how much you wear. As a quick fix, apply on your cheekbones, nose and chin and add lightly on your forehead. Choose a shade such as Bronze Berry if you have a dark complexion, Tropical Tan if you have a medium complexion and Sun Touched if you have a light complexion. You can lightly brush on some loose powder over entire face if you so desire to balance it off. Use it all year long so you'll have color in every season.

Lastly, stock your makeup bag with our Invisible Blotting Powder to keep the shine away as the evening wears on.
