I understand that this day makeup may be too much for some, but in this post I am going to show you how I take my makeup from day to night. There's not a huge difference, but there's a few main factors that can change your makeup from 'work' to 'night-on-the-town'. Depending on how much makeup you like to wear, of course. I don't always have natural makeup for the day though :D
In this first pic I understand that it just looks like different lighting (which it is, day time [left] is natural, while night [right] is artificial light). You will probably see in the full face pic the differences. The main things I like to do to change it up is 1: add more depth with darker colours, & 2: adding more eyeliner/ mascara or falsies. I only used individual lashes here so it's not a huge difference.
And of course, if you wear a tinted moisturizer or a light foundation during the day, you can add a heavier foundation for night time, especially if you are going to be taking pictures and you want your skin to look flawless. (This is the main reason why I love my Australis Paparazzi Foundation - I should do a review for any aussies out there if your keen). More blush & contouring/ highlighting is another big thing. Of course if you want to keep the eyes easy, a bold lip is great for night as well.
Day: I used the Urban Decay naked 1 palette. It was very loosely based off this look by Samantha Schuerman that I did by memory, lol. Except mines not as 'clean' :(. I had quite a bit of blush on but a fairly light base (my everyday base) & nude lips which are Makeup Geek lipstick in Shy. You can just wear bronzer during the day if that is what you prefer.
Night:

I find you do not need to take your makeup off and start from scratch- as long as you used primer during the day you should be fine. This is even the same for my foundation- because I only set it with a tiiiny bit of powder it does not turn cakey (but I use a primer to ensure that it will last)
You can also easily bring a few extra makeup items to work if you don't have time to go home & do your makeup for your night out.
