As summer approaches, our social calendars will slowly but surely fill up. For those working from offices, transitioning from the office to evening plans can be tricky.
When it comes to makeup, we have all the tips you need to ensure the transition will be smooth and look effortless.
Here’s how to modify your look for each environment:
1. Flick the lashes
All you need is an element of fun to your normal lash flick. A colourful shade is party-perfect, while a subtle brown shade is ideal for work. Don’t forget to curl your lashes and groom your brows to finish off your look.
2. Metallic eyes
If you’re looking for extra glamour, try the gold or bronze eyelid. This will lighten up your face and throw in a sultry touch to your look. For best results, start with an eyeshadow primer, then apply the eyeshadow using your finger. This everyday work look is easy to do.

3. Red lip
Red lipstick never goes out of style; it just keeps on coming in different shades. Try matte, satin, or even glossy lipsticks for a subtle yet on-trend look. Define your lips by drawing your cupid’s bow using a lipliner before adding colour
4. Pastel accents
Pastels are all the rage this summer! They bring an air of the ’80s era of glam with a modern twist. Besides creating crisp lines on your eyes, try pastels on your nails or lips. One-colour manicures are fashionable – however, if you want a dramatic effect, you can mix and match different colours.
Wear a lilac lip gloss for a sheer purple tint. A matching inner corner highlight would take your look from normal to being runway-worthy. To try the ombre nail tips trend, dip a small ombre nail sponge in your favourite pastel nail polish and press this over the tips.
