5 Night Out Makeup Ideas That You Can Easily Slay

Night Out Makeup - Five Night-Out Makeup Ideas with Maybelline India



Girls’ night out means an endless evening of fun, and ‘whine and dine’ aka gossip and gorging on lots of lip-smacking delicacies. If reading this makes you want to plan one with your girl gang, now is the time as we’re here to help you create a look that is beyond stunning. While you can take care of your dress, location and activities, allow us to guide you in wearing the right night out makeup. Wearing an amazing outfit makes you feel confident, but the right night out makeup look will help you steal the show. Whether you want to go for the classic ‘no-makeup' look or want to go bold with glittery, mysterious eyes; your next night out makeup look will definitely help you dazzle like a star. All you have to do is grab your pen and notepad and start taking notes with these five night-out makeup ideas.  

1. No-makeup’ makeup look

If you want your makeup to look natural and minimal, you can go for the classic ‘no-makeup’ look. Start with a dewy primer to add a luminous glow, fill your pores and create an even texture. We recommend skipping the foundation and going straight in with the concealer for a natural night out makeup. To get that flawless base for this night out makeup look, you need a foundation and concealer that's your perfect match, and the Maybelline Foundation Finder tool can help you find the right one. Next, give your skin a natural pop of colour by adding some blush to the apples of your cheeks. Keep your eye makeup simple and almost bare. You can apply a mascara to add volume to your eyelashes. Complete your simple night out makeup by applying a tinted lip balm or gloss to enhance the natural colour of your lips.  

2. Make your makeup glow

For this look, keep your base makeup simple and amp up your eye makeup by adding lots of shimmer. To create a mesmerising night out eye makeup, start by shaping your eyebrows. Next, use shimmery shades from the Maybelline City Mini Eyeshadow Palette to colour your eyelids. Then, define your eyes using a kajal and eyeliner. Finish off your glam night out makeup with red lipstick.  

3. Experiment with vibrant colours

To create this look, do your base makeup as usual. Then, create a show-stopping night out eye makeup by using vibrant shades such as green or orange from the Maybelline New City Mini Eyeshadow Palette. If you wish to go a mile extra, use a blue eyeliner on your lower lash line. Pair this look with fuchsia lipstick and have fun with contrasting colours.  

4. Go retro

It’s time to bring back the 90s. Once you are done doing your base makeup, start your night out eye makeup with the Maybelline Colossal Bold Liner, and Maybelline Colossal Waterproof Mascara. Once you’re done with your eye makeup, it’s time to pick a lipstick. Brown lipsticks and dark shades, in general, were all the rage back in those days. To create a blast from the past, apply a brown lipstick shade that suits your skin tone and undertone. And voila! This night out makeup look is now yours to flaunt!  

5. Flaunt a glam look

After your base makeup, use a highlighter to add a dazzling shine and glow to your glam night out makeup. Apply it on your cheekbones in an upward motion, and then, apply it to the bridge and tip of your nose and on your cupid’s bow. For the eyes, use deep brown and black shades from the Maybelline Nudes Eyeshadow Palette and create a smokey eye look. Add intense drama to your eyes by outlining them with kajal. For achieving thick and voluminous lashes, go for the Maybelline Hypercurl Waterproof Mascara. To complete your stunning night out makeup look, opt for dark to deep lip shades such as maroons or dark brown.  


Now that you are aware of the night out makeup ideas, let’s look at how you can ace the base with ease.
