There are a lot of employers who’ve begun to adjust to the changing social norm by allowing piercings and body art to remain in full view during the work day.  Some of us aren’t lucky enough to work for one of those companies though, so when you want to head out for happy hour without wasting time by stopping at home to get ready, what do you do?  Well, if you have one minute, you have no problem.

What You’ll Need:

clear bioplast shafts

clear and black replacement balls

stick, cream, or liquid cheek tint

black eye liner

Here’s what to do:

1. Start by tidying up your face really quick by splashing with cold water and patting away any oil from your t-zone with a dry paper towel.

2. To take your makeup from day to night, all you need is a little refresher and a bit more glow.  Pat and blend some of the tint into your cheeks, the outer corner of your eyelids, your lips, and a little at your temples.  Rosy pinks with a little opalescence or shimmer are fabulous for this.

3. Wear the clear body jewelry to work as a retainer. Then when you leave to go out, keep the clear shaft in and switch out the clear balls for the black ones.  Now your piercings are visible, instantly put together, and they match whatever you wore.

4. Draw a thick line at your upper lashline with the black eyeliner (it doesn’t have to be perfect) and smudge with your finger.

Depending on how meticulously you apply your eyeliner and tint, the whole thing can be done in about 90 seconds.  Now you’re ready to go!
