A glamorous and incandescent mouth

There, it's too much: at the beginning, everything was perfect but, after an hour, holding this red between a sip of champagne and a kiss is a miracle. And then these colors frank, it ages, right?

We adjust the shot: Rule # 1, if you decide to dare ruby ​​red, your mouth should be perfectly smooth and smooth under pain of taking ten years. So you have to hydrate it all day long with a nourishing stick and, if you do it at the last moment, leave a thick layer of balm for 5 minutes.

The secret to holding the color? Powder her lips and coordinate the red stick to a lip contour pencil . Draw around the edges to prevent the color from spinning, then completely color the lips with a pencil (Phyto-Lips Gloss, Sisley, 22 €). Then you can set the color. Bite a paper handkerchief, let it dry a few moments, then repeat. Skeptical on the red? A pretty satin pink or a real fuchsia will be just as sexy, the freshness more.

Display a grain of skin and a perfect complexion

There is too much: bad lighting or too heavy hand? In any case, nothing goes: foundation too thick, notorious abuse of free powder and excess of blush. You are not going to spend all evening with this leaded mine.

The shot is corrected: to find a fresh and transparent complexion , split a tissue paper and apply it like a gauze all over the face pressing on the forehead, cheeks, chin, temples, in order to remove everything which is in excess. Then apply two drops of moisturizing serum to restore skin tone and "dilute" the excess pigment. Another smart option: play the brush with this "magic" treatment (Instant Shine Brush Top Secrets, Yves Saint Laurent, 44 €). Its smoothing and unifying properties give a beautiful shine, even over the make-up.

Unconditional powder? Have a light hand! Long live the big brush to sweep gently. Above all, remember that to keep a facial complexion the whole evening your face must be perfectly hydrated and oxygenated: do not hesitate to do beforehand a scrub and a moisturizing mask in order to have a skin soft and bouncy.

Adopt the glitter attitude by focusing on the glitter

There is too much: not easy to manipulate, the glitter has, in addition, an unpleasant tendency to migrate where you did not expect: on your hands, your clothes and even your table neighbor ... At the end of the evening, you will be nicknamed the garland, then, react!

One corrects the shot: first thing to know, the glitter is not of the most beautiful effect in the center of the face or under the eyes . On the other hand, they are a magnificent magnet with light on the bombs of the body : eyebrow arch , hollow shoulder , cleavage , instep ... To apply them easily without putting everywhere, choose a very fine powder , aerial Diamond Powder, Make Up For Ever, 19 €), rather than confetti glitter, heavier. Moisten the area with a thermal water fogger . Allow to dry for a few moments and apply with the pulp of the finger . So fixed, they will not move, promised! For the legs or shoulders, put a little in a bowl, mix with a large brush and sweep forming large circles for a harmonious distribution.

You have put too much? A cotton impregnated with clear or very clear clear powder will "grab" them in the blink of an eye.

Daring an extravagant bun

There is too much: you have been busy for almost two hours without success on a banana bun with a lot of lacquer, crepe and other pins. Assessment: your hair is shaggy, dry and sticky, in short, unbearable.

We correct the shot: instead of going back through the box shampoo, opt for this trendy B plan, spotted on the catwalk: the woolly effect. After generating a stripe in the middle , apply generously spray or spray (Glamor Queen, Osis Schwarzkopf Professional, 17 €, in salon) over the entire hair and crepe each strand vigorously with a small comb . This will give them a vaporous, sparkling, romantic, fairy-like texture. Then, it's up to you to see: reassemble some wicks in a loose chignon style, let them loose if they are half-long or square ... In final touch, for even more magic, pare the whole of a few spangles , with strass hair or, why not, a pretty tiara to play the princesses to the end.

Providing a provocative look with false eyelashes

There is too much: after three attempts, still no eye of doe, but glue full fingers. And if, fortunately, you succeed in holding the fringe of eyelashes for more than two minutes, it is too heavy, it bothers you and narrows the look. Why is it so beautiful about others?

We correct the shot: the false eyelashes are always sold very long . To avoid the cocker eye effect, it is best to cut them with scissors depending on the size of your eye. Place them on the back of the hand with a little glue and, using a box stick, coat the eyelash fringe . Place it at the level of your real eyelashes, starting with the center of the eye and then, with the help of the stick, press lightly on the outer and inner corners to make it adhere.

Another option: easier to pose and really bluffing effect, small "clusters" of eyelashes at the outer corner of the eye, for a cat eye effect (False Eyelashes Individual, Shu Uemura, 12 €).
