FOR BEGINNERS, A STEP-BY-STEP PARTY MAKEUP LOOK

Even complete beginners may master this step-by-step party makeup look.

Dressing up in a stunning gown and applying some fun party makeup may instantly put you in the mood to dance the night away, whether it's ladies' night at your favourite club or your best friend's sangeet. You won't need to rush to the nearest salon for a makeover, either. You'll be ready to rock the party in no time with this simple party makeup regimen.

1. Even simple party makeup styles call for a lot of shimmer and glitter on the eyelids, which is why we suggest starting with the eyes. This allows you to easily dust away any eyeshadow smudges without ruining your base makeup.

2. Begin by using an eyebrow pencil to fill in your brows and define your arches.

3.  After that, prime and set your eyelids, then crease with a brown shade from The 24K Nudes Eyeshadow Palette. Apply dark brown to the outer part of the crease to make it stand out. Apply a golden or gold shimmering eyeshadow hue across your eyelids with your finger, then add a dab of black eyeshadow to the outer corner of your eyelids for added drama.

4. Use bold liquid eyeliner to define your upper lash line and create a dramatic winged eyeliner to take your party makeup look to the next level. For a smudged-out eyeliner appearance, smudge some black eyeshadow across your top lash line. Smoke out the dark brown eyeshadow on your lower lash line with a flat angled brush, and then use a dark black kajal on your top and lower lash line for added drama.

5. Add a coat (or three!) of your favourite volumizing mascara to finish off your party eye makeup.

6. The key to nailing any party makeup is to have a perfect face. Fill and blur pores, smooth skin texture, and extend the wear of your foundation makeup with a primer. Choose a long-lasting full coverage foundation to avoid fading throughout the night, and then use a concealer to mask your dark circles as well as any blemishes or dark spots.

7. Carve out your cheekbones and define the perimeter of your face using a powder or cream contour product, then set your products in place with a setting powder, and your base makeup is complete. Because you'll most likely be photographing your event with flash, make sure your base makeup items match your skin tone exactly. Answer a few questions on the Maybelline Foundation Finder tool to determine your perfect shade match, and you'll never end up with a base makeup product that's too light or too dark for your skintone.

8. Now it's time to use a blush and highlighter to add some much-needed colour and glow to your face. Apply a generous quantity of colour to the apples of your cheeks with your favourite blush hue. To give your complexion a naturally flushed look, swipe your brush across the bridge of your nose. Party makeup looks are the ideal opportunity to shine like the Gods, so go all out with a brilliant gold highlighter, but not too much. Apply shimmer to the bridge of your nose, under the arch of your brows, your temples, and the Cupid's bow on all high points of your face. For the utmost shine, dab a small bit of highlighter in the inner corner of your eyes.

9. Now it's time for the most exciting part of any beauty look: the lipstick! Before you begin your lip makeup, line your lips with a lip liner to ensure that the lipstick does not fade or feather outside of your natural lip line.

10. Because there will be a lot of talking, eating, and drinking at your party, you'll want a waterproof, smudge-proof, and transfer-proof lipstick. Keep your lips as the major feature of your face, even if you're wearing light makeup for your party, to create a statement without going overboard. The Superstay Matte Ink Liquid Lipstick Pinks Edition in the shade Ringleader has just the right amount of to complement all complexion tones and undertones, making it ideal for people who like a simple party makeup look without a lot of dramatic colours.

Don't forget to fix everything in place and lock in your party makeup with a few spritzes of a setting spray once you've finished your party makeup. And there you have it! You're all set to party all night...
