CREATE AN EXPERIENCE

"Make putting on your makeup an experience, not an afterthought."
Allotting a bit of extra time for pre-party primping can get you into a sexier state of mind - and keep you from looking like you just threw your makeup on last-minute, explains Ford.
To do: Plan out what makeup you intend to wear well in advance of a bash, much like you would your outfit. On the day of the event, cleanse and moisturize before applying your makeup and be sure to sweep on setting powder to give your look staying power. And don't forget to toss a shimmer powder into your bag for touch-ups.
