So, you’re going on a date and obviously you want to stun! You’ve picked a perfect outfit, shoes, what about make-up?
I’m aware that you want to sweep him off his feet but don’t get carried away. I’ve asked men I know about the look they like best. You will be taken aback by the answers!
Make-up for a date. I know what he’s fond of!
If you want to learn some reliable make-up tips, read on!
- I know you want him to be stunned but remember not to go to extremes changing the look completely. You may easily do too much and leave him in shock, instead of in love.
Getting a drastic haircut or color change isn’t a good idea before a date. Clarifying or exfoliating facials don’t make a good choice either because they leave the skin red and irritated. - Time for make-up. First think what place you are planning to go to. Your make-up should go with the place. For example, you go to the climbing wall or rope park, and you’re wearing red lipstick, black eyeliner and highlighter. This doesn’t seem to match, does it?
Remember that different situations and places, like restaurants, concerts, walk in a park or mountain trail, should have a matching version of make-up.
What if you don’t know where you’re going because your partner wants to surprise you? The answer is: less means more. It’s better to apply subtle make-up with a soft lip gloss and radiance-boosting face serum than look unnatural with camouflage make-up. Delicate, radiant look is always great no matter the situation. - Hydrated skin. Remember that the secret to flawless skin and make-up is in a decent daily skin-care routine: the hydration is the base element. Also, a primer matching the skin type works great if you want your make-up to last. It is going to stay unflawed for long hours. If you like, use a fixer spray as well.
At the same time, don’t forget that moderation is the key word. Applying a few coatings of foundation creates a cake face so you are left looking unnatural and simply ridiculous.
What kind of make-up do guys really like?
NATURAL
Really, guys love our natural charm, femininity which isn’t covered up by tons of products. Your guy is going out with you, not some made-up doll. If he insists that you put on full make-up, he probably just wants to show off in front of his friends. Just don’t get me wrong. I’m not telling you to go completely make-up-free. Just don’t get carried away!
