*First, your make up
Repeat after us: Don’t start from scratch. Instead, layer bold eye makeup over whatever you’ve got on. “A deep shade adds drama,” says New York City makeup artist and hairstylist Paul Podlucky. Smudge a gray or brown into the creases of your lids; go daring with chartreuse or electric blue on your lids. “The key is blending,” says Podlucky. [1] Urban Decay Smoke Out Pencil (urbandecay.com) makes the job easy with its sponge tip. Or try a good-proof cream that you can sweep across lids with a finger, like [2] Guerlan Soft Colour Cream-to-Powder Eye-shadow (800-815-7720). Next, comb lashes to remove any mascara flakes before applying a fresh coat. [3] Shiseido The Makeup Distinguish mascara (shiseido.com) separates each lash while adding smudge-free fullness.

Tackle dry patches on cheeks or under eyes with moisturizer. [4] NARS Hydrating Freshening Lotion 9888-903-6277). Instantly softens, plus it gently exfoliates to reveal brighter skin. Then touch up with a light-reflecting powder; [5] Christian Dior DiorSkin (dior.com) gives great glow minus shine.
