Your Head-to-Toe Guide to Sexy

Makeup

The key to really sexy makeup is not overdoing it, according to Maran. “Avoid putting on too much powder or bronzer, or else it will look caked on all night,” she says. “Instead, apply some light, tinted moisturizer and then sweep on some illuminizer. This will give you a fresh faced and romantic look.” We like Smashbox Sheer Focus Tinted Moisturizer, $30 and Clinique Up-lighting Liquid Illuminator, $23.

Draw attention to your eyes with a simple swipe of black eyeliner, you can also wing out the ends a bit to make it more of a cat eye. Maran says it’s “so ‘Hollywood.'” And don’t forget plenty of mascara to make your eyes really pop.

And as we mentioned earlier, you can try a bold lip look to bring attention to your mouth. Maran suggests a jewel-tone shade for maximum irresistibility.
