Going out for dinner is always such a lovely thing but sometimes I don’t want to look too polished and I prefer a more casual vibe. That said, I still use a few products! However, I love makeup that looks like it is barely there, portraying a more natural appearance. You may have seen my Subtle Makeup Look blog post and whilst this is a perfect low key daytime look, the elements in the look below elevate it to the evening. I always enjoy using my Urban Decay eyeshadow palette and I just don’t think you can go wrong using the array of shades from it. Pairing the Nars Honolulu Honey lipstick with the Waimea Lip Liner worked really well and it created a soft peachy brown nude colour. I also always use a setting spray just to make sure the makeup lasts throughout the meal.
