For bold eyes tote black liner, cream shadow If it's a strong eye look you're going for "take your black kohl liner of choice and rim all around the inside of the eyes," says Wade. "Then, opt for an easy-to-use cream waterproof shadow like Make Up For Ever Aqua Cream, $22 in the color of your choice. I personally love shades #1 and #14 for a good night look," she says.

"Dip your ring finger in and blend from the lashline up towards your crease, and then, with a Q-tip (in the spirit of space saving), 'tickle' a bit into your lower lashline. Voila, in just a few simple steps, you have a smoky eye," says Wade. Finally finish the look with a "swipe of clear or champagne-colored gloss on the lips." Try La Prairie Cellular Lip Colour Effects in Cocoa, $40.

I look like picture number 1. I never "enhance" anything. I should I just don't feel bold enough

Those are definitely good products to keep for makeup touchups! I don't like the sephora wipes though--they feel just like baby wipes and don't remove my makeup well.
