Get the Look: Day-to-Night Eye Makeup Tips

The makeup routine you’re rocking during the day just isn’t going to pack the same punch once the sun goes down. Celebrity makeup artist and Canadian beauty authority, Grace Lee, knows how to take your look from day to night – and makes achieving fabulous eye makeup from sunrise to sunset a cinch with these simple tips.

Tips for Day:

Get mind-blowingly flawless day-time eyelashes every morning with this sometimes forgotten makeup bag tool. An eyelash curler is an easy way to make your eyelashes look instantly fuller and thicker. “Don’t ever leave your house without curling your eyelashes and adding a few coats of mascara,” recommends Lee. “It’s the fastest thing you can do that will have the highest impact on your appearance.”

For a softer day look, reach for a brown eye shadow to line your eyes instead of eyeliner. This helps to blend the colour more seamlessly into the lashline and skin while still providing some definition to the eyes. Elevate your eyes even further with a warm eye shadow or coloured contact lens. “The contrasts of a rich, dark brown shadow and AIR OPTIX COLORS Honey contact lenses results in a look that’s fresh and modern,” says Lee.

Tips for Night:

To achieve a sultry nighttime look go for a classic smoky eye. When you’re getting decked out for a major night on the town, nothing adds drama quite like this. The best part? The smoky eye doesn’t have to be black. Try grey, navy, plum or forest green to dial up the sexy and add a level of surprise. This is another great way to #LiveInColor.

Use metallic shadows to add drama and intrigue to the eye. Compliment this metallic palette with the addition of AIR OPTIX COLORS’ Sterling Gray contact lenses. “This offers fashion-forward beauties a bold, new way to enhance and redefine their look, complementing their already vibrant style and highlighting one of the first things people notice – their eyes,” notes Lee.

Never be afraid to #LiveInColor with a new beauty routine.
