Touch up your foundation drawing inverted triangles with concealer.

You started out with perfect foundation, blush, and eye makeup, but now your face makeup needs a refresh.

Here's what to do: draw inverted triangles under each eye and under each nostril.

This is where most of the discoloration and redness occurs, so if you neutralize it with a foundation stick, you'll instantly have even, flawless skin.

Apply it with the edge of the concealer stick or a concealer brush to help get into the creases close to your eye and around your nose

Blend it out with your fingers.

No need for a brush to help you diffuse the formula; the warmth from your (clean) fingertips will meld the foundation stick right into your skin, leaving a seamless finish.

Minimize shine

 If it's your first date and you're nervous and your skin is starting to glow and you don't want it to, blot your sheen with anti-shine balm.

Swipe on a light wash of lip color

A good choice is a coral shade, which adds a pop of color to your mouth and will complement your coral-colored blush perfectly.

Finally, add mascara, and you're good to go.
