Day to night in 30mins

This weekend I had a few (read 10) of my uni friends coming to stay so it was quite hectic to say the least. As we were out all day on Saturday I had about 30mins to change and freshen up before going out. So here is my tried and tested day to night turnaround.

During the day I kept the makeup super simple with some foundation, blusher and bronzer on the skin, and mascara with a little black khol pencil smudged along the lashline.

For the evening I quickly changed into a short burgundy dress from ASOS with black tights and patent leather heels (not seen).

Instead of styling my hair I clipped in a couple of wefts of love hair extensions in different colours to add volume and dimension, then quickly curled the ends with the babyliss conical wand to blend them in.

 

For makeup I touched up the skin and then added drama to the eyes with an exaggerated winged liner set with sparkly black eyeshadow (I used a chanel one, but MAC black tied would work just as well) and of course false lashes from e.l.f.
I then added some deep pink blush from Sleek and finished off with MAC's creme d'nude lipstick.

All in under 30 mins... mainly to stop the guys from whingeing that I always take too long to get ready. What are your tricks for getting ready in a hurry? xxx

  1. I'm a big fan of simple make-up both for day&night, I loved this post!!!

    My #1 choice would be a bright rosy lippie, lots of mascara and eyeliner and a darker pink blush. It's so easy and quick but still looks polished ;)

  7. Very nice 'day to night transformation'! The black eyeliner and e/s defines your eyes so nicely. I don't wear falsies myself, but the e.l.f one of you looks awesome!

    Love your daytime look too! ;)

    Cheers,
    Jess
