Lisa O’Connor is the head makeup artist on Dancing With The Stars so who better to get makeup tips off before you hit the tiles tonight!
With over two decades experience in the industry you can trust her completely with your face.
Here’s hoping with these tips we’ll look as great as the gals (and guys!) on Dancing With The Stars!
1. Do Your Makeup When You’re Sober
“Do your makeup while you’re sober and in good light.”
This sounds so obvious but how many times have predrinks commenced before the basics were done… We’re guilty.
2. Don’t Layer It On
Lisa reminds us that if we put too much foundation on it will melt and our skin can’t breathe.
Always wear powder to help your foundation stick.
If you’re shiny use blotting paper or tissues to get rid of excess oil.
“I love Clinique double powder or studio fix.”
4. Only Bring Out The Basics
“People have more money in their makeup bag than they do in their wallet.”
She warns against bringing our whole kit out in case we lose our bags but also so we don’t get creative with reapplications after a few beverages…
“Always only bring out a powder and lipstick. Never bring eyeshadows, eyeliner, blushers etc. if you’re going out drinking!”
Now go forth and use these tips so your face stays stuck until the club shuts.
