Most people think they can just add more make-up and they are done with their evening look. I’m sorry this is not the case. The major reason for this difference is lighting.
Throughout the day we are subjected to different light sources, whether it is at work where most of the light is fluorescent lighting or in our homes where there is incandescent lighting. The nature of the light sources causes these differences.
Fluorescent light is a blue light. This will affect people differently. Asian ladies generally have more yellow in their skin which will be accentuated under blue light. As you can start to understand this is what is affecting the look of your make-up.
Incandescent lights are going to have different affects because the light is yellow or red in tone. This red light tends to soften all colors, like when a photographer does a portrait they use soft light or warm light to hide imperfections and make the photograph appear flawless. This is why you need to change your cosmetics for each case, or for the light source you will be under at that time.
Evening makeup can be more dramatic, especially if you are attending a party or function where the lights will be dim. Don’t be afraid to wear bold colours and experiment with new products. If you love to wear the latest makeup trends, this is the best time to wear them. Pick your best feature and wear the boldest colours. If you love your eyes, wear two coats of mascara and bold eyeliner. Your evening lipstick shade can also be bolder than your daytime lipstick shade. However, even though you can wear darker colours and a more dramatic look in the evening, it is possible to overdo. Day makeup and evening makeup differ because you can wear bolder colours and a more dramatic makeup look in the evening. If you need help choosing colours and looks for different occasions, consult with a makeup artist or other expert for advice.
