When it comes to clubbing makeup, the crazier the better. Because clubs tend to have very dim lighting (and lots of girls dressed to the nines hoping to impress), your ordinary nudes and natural makeup simply won't show up.
Is this how a modern geisha would look like? We don't know about that, but this avant garde makeup look sure is inspired by the simultaneously refined and intensely hued colors of geisha makeup.

If you've ever been to the Harajuku district of Japan then you know that nothing is off limits to Japanese girls (and sometimes guys) when it comes to makeup.

It's funny to us that so many Victorian makeup looks done for Halloween emphasize heavy, dead makeup with lots of deep plums and reds because the Victorians wore little to no makeup (women were basically considered whores if they wore rouge).
Poison Ivy is one of our favorite female antagonists from "Batman." Sure, girl was a little crazy about her precious plants, but she was hot as hell and wore cute, skimpy outfits that flaunted her bodacious curves. She was also pretty damn gorgeous, all the more perfect for ensnaring her victims.

"Clockwork Orange," Stanley Kubrick's oddball crime film, features several teenage characters whose intentions are...questionable, to say the least. After all, Alex DeLarge, the main character of the story, sociopathically rapes a few women in his youth, runs around with a gang, and takes drugs.

Take it from us: Shimmery makeup is REALLY easy to go overboard with. While fine, minute shimmer flecks are easier to handle, thick, coarse glitter that's evident even when you look in the eyeshadow or blush pan means it's going to make your face light up like Christmas morning...in the tackiest, most blinding way possible.
Traveling often is super fun, but sitting through 13 hours on the flight from California to Bangkok is killer on your skin, especially since the airplane recycles air and therefore dries out your skin.

We all love our go-to neutral makeup colors: they're the basis of our makeup collection and, like an LBD, look good no matter how bloated we feel - and look - and no matter what the occasion. But as Cyndi Lauper famously said in her song, sometimes "girls just wanna have fun."
Neutral, universally flattering colors should be the bread and butter of both your makeup collection and makeup routine. Not that we're not a fan of bright and bold hues; it's just that neutrals like taupe, ecru, and smokey grays make every gal look fantastic, no matter her skin tone or eye color.

Natural makeup looks good during the day, at your business meeting (so you look gorgeous rather than tacky), at the gym (if you're one of those gals who refuse to leave the house without makeup), and at the club (if you switch up your nude lipcolor for a more vibrant one, like coral or blue red).
