From graduation, prom, job interview, to first dates, meeting the parents and weddings, women have these big days that are monumental for her life. In each big day, we always want to be our most beautiful self – but without looking over the top. In the spirit of the love month, we at Calyxta feel the need to share with you the most appropriate makeup looks that will make you stand out (without feeling uncomfortable) during your first dates, and hopefully until your nth!
The First Date Look
For the first date, it’s always good to play with a less-is-more approach. Though, it wouldn’t hurt to show your date that you’ve got great eye shadow skills by playing with a little taupe and shimmer. A fresh clean look like this one from Miranda Kerr will score high on the date meter.

The Moving Forward (Second Date) Look
After you’ve shown your potential partner that you can go all simple, now show him your sultry side by playing with either a bold lip color or smoky eyes (just not both at the same time). Like these two options, bold lips from YouTube beauty guru Teni Panosian or smoky eyes but nude lips from Modern Family star Sarah Hyland.

The ‘It’s Getting Serious’(Third Date) Look
It’s time to bring it down a bit but not by too much. A gorgeous popsicle-stained pout is guaranteed to make your date want to give you that lingering goodbye kiss.
