You can totally use these tricks between work, after-hour work functions, and beyond!

Get that glow
You can NEVER go wrong with a glowy complexion. Mix in a little bit of an oil-free luminizing gel, like Make Up For Ever Uplight Face Luminizer Gel in Sparkling Golden Pink ($30) to your foundation or tinted moisturizer for an ultra-natural glow.
Glam up your eyes
Give eyes an extra pop with a shimmery eyeshadow palette that includes natural-looking shades like pretty pinks and bronzing cafés. I like Smashbox Love Me Eyeshadow Palette in Admire Me ($34). It creates just enough of a flirty flush that’s still appropriate for the daytime.
Pretty up that pout
For luscious labios, try a long-lasting lip balm, like CoverGirl LipPerfection Jumbo Gloss Balm ($8), that will keep your pout smooth while providing a hint of color. The Coral Twist shade looks especially gorgeous on medium and dark complexions.
Get toner looking legs
Short skirts and dresses are a definite no-no when it comes to the office or church. But that doesn’t mean you can’t show off a little bit of your stemss. Keep them looking smooth under your spring-friendly pencil skirts and vestidos with a sunless tanner that creates natural-looking color, like Jergens Natural Glow Daily Moisturizer ($9).
Keep your nails polished
Paint your nails with a soft pastel polish, like Essie Nail Color in Go Ginza ($8). You’ll feel instantly pulled together!
