"So now we want to add a little pizazz to our face because we're going out on the town and we're getting ready for night time. Obviously we want different make up for night time to enhance those eyes. So the first step is taking a liner to the top of your lid. I like to use a very dark brown, because black tends to get chalky and fall down in your face. I'll take a dark brown, and what you're going to do is take a very thin brush like so, and you're just going to line the top of your lid. And it's going to bring out your eyes tremendously, especially with the mascara. Now you can use a liquid liner as well, but I like the powder because you can build on top of it. Oh yes, look at her eyes. It brings it out so much. I'm going to do one eye (close again). So we do that, and what we're going to do is pair it with a color that brings out that dark, so we're going to take another brush. And then we're going to pair it with a really pretty eye shadow. Now depending on what you're wearing that night, you can pair it with anything. I like to put a little hint of color of what I'm wearing in my outfit, maybe in my dress, if there's a green, I'd put some green on my eyes. So right now, we're going to mix in some purple, because that's a pretty night color. And we're going to do that on just in the corners, and like I said, use your finger to blend it in, especially at night because you want to make your eyes more smoky. So blend that as well. Very pretty. And you always want to put a light color on the top of your eye. So you need to pair it with something that you like. Don't get a white color, get more of like a cream, because when you're in the light, you don't want the white to stand out. So just line the top. That's really beautiful on you. So you're just going kind of to rub it in with the rest. Basically the idea of having an eye, is to have everything blend. So you don't want to look like you're wearing three different colors. You want everything to blend, so like I said, blend it all over like that. Then you have the mascara, let's see, very beautiful. And then of course at night, if you want to use a darker lip color, what I would use is a lipstick first, and basically take this with a brush, don't put this on just like a lipstick, okay. Take a brush, put some on your brush like this and then just kind of dab it on your lip, because you don't want your whole lip to have too much lipstick. You don't want that to take over your face. You want your eyes to really pop. So we're going to do that, and then to finish off the look, we're going to put some lipgloss over it. And again, the secret to making the color last, is if you put lipbalm over the whole thing it will make it last longer. So we're going to take our lipgloss and just kind of dab it over the lips. Okay, so blot together really well, and then always have the color that you're using in your purse so you can reapply at all times. Because when you're having a cocktail we all know that the lipstick comes off. And that's going to be your night time look."
