All women want to look and feel their best on date night, don’t they? If you look good, you feel great, and this will help you to be confident throughout your date.

In this post, we are going to talk you through some of my favorite date-night products, as well as giving you some great tips on having an amazing first date!

LOOK INCREDIBLE ON DATE NIGHT

Looking great on your date is important. And no, not because you want to wow your date with your looks! Yes, we’re sure you want to achieve that. However, it is more important because of how you feel. You will feel great within yourself, and that makes a huge difference. So, we will talk you through some products you can always rely on, which can give you that beautiful, natural glow, which will allure your date.

Cream Gel Tan Maximizer

This is a non-oily cream gel for the body and face, which helps to counteract the skin signs of aging, as well as prolonging, preparing, and intensifying your tan.

In just a few days, you should be able to notice a deeper tan, so you will need to prepare for this product ahead of your date. Not only this but your tan will last longer while your skin will be protected in the process.

The dry touch texture of this product means that it is easily and quickly absorbed.

There are a number of active ingredients in this product, including acerola extract, acetyl tyrosine, and biomimetic peptide DNA-defense. 85% of the ingredients used are of natural origin.

How to use

Rouge Tint

Rosy cheeks and alluring lips, what more could you want on date night, right ladies? This 2-in-1 tint beautifies your complexion in a subtle manner.

Not only does it help you to create a more vibrant complexion but it is enriched with Camellia extract, which is famed for its powerful antioxidant properties.

This aqueous formula, which consists of oil microcapsules combined with pigments, dresses your cheekbones and lips naturally with a gorgeous red shade, leaving a stunning and professional matte finish.

How to use

For use on the lips, apply directly with the applicator like you would if you were using a regular lip gloss.

For use on the cheekbones, apply a pearl of the product on to a beauty blender or sponge and use dabbing motions to blend into the skin.

GALifornia Mini

GALifornia Mini transports you to the sunny beaches of California. This golden pink blush gives you a natural glow, and it is small enough to fit in your makeup bag.

The powder itself features notes of pink grapefruit and vanilla. It blends bright pink and shimmering gold, perfectly capturing the warm glow of Californian sunshine. It comes with a mirror and a rounded blush brush, providing a soft and diffused application.

B.B. Cream All In One 

B.B. Cream All In One Make Up provides skin care and makeup in the one product. It is a multi benefit cream which protects, conceals, moisturises, tints, and primes the skin in one simple step.

A hybrid between skin care and makeup, you can use this IsaDora product as a primer under your normal foundation. It protects the skin with SPF 12, which is vital come rain or shine, and is suitable for all skin types.

The new airless pump tube makes the product easy to apply and ensures less waste.

How to use:

Apply to your nose, forehead, cheeks, and chin in dotes

BB Cream

This is another one of my favourites because it is all about natural beauty! Creating the illusion of a perfectly naked complexion has never been easier. This BB cream delivers flawless skin thanks to the combination of five important actions: correction, radiance, protection, hydration, and complexion.

This cream fuses with the skin in an intimate manner, shaping and smoothing it to perfection. The secret behind this is the Bio-Fusion micro-mesh, which is a combination of natural and synthetic polymers.

The product also boasts a delicious yet delicate floral fragrance. The first note is sparkling and fresh – a mixture of peach with vegetal. You are then hit with a beautiful mix of jasmine heart, raspberry, and rose, which is enriched with white must and a powdery benzoin balsamic base. Skincare never smelt so good.

How to use

Use your fingertips to apply this BB cream to your face and neck.

Blend from the centre outwards until you achieve the perfect look.

Enhanced with SPF 20, Erborian BB Crème Au Ginseng Clair is one of the most popular products from the Erborian skincare collection and one of the options to consider when looking for BB cream. It was cited as “the best BB cream I’ve yet laid my hands on” in an issue of Vogue.

This cream features a highly concentrated collection of herbs that have been used conventionally in Korean skincare. It blends a lightweight appearance with all of the benefits of restorative skincare.

The high-tech formulation offers a velvety touch, nourishes and moisturises, and conceals imperfections by unifying your skin tone.

The beneficial active ingredients include titanium dioxide, which is a sun protector, and ginseng, which revitalises and tones the skin. Ginger and liquorice are both anti-inflammatories, acting as a powerful defence against free radicals and detoxifying the skin.

The cream comes in a range of shades and sizes and is even ideal for the lightest skin tones.

How to use

Apply a fine layer to your face either after or in place of your moisturiser

Moisturizer & Sunscreen In One

For flawless looking skin in one quick step, try a moisturizer and sunscreen in one, like DECLÉOR Hydra Floral Mini BB Cream 24hr Moisture SPF15 Medium. Suitable for all skin types, this award-winning BB cream combines foundation with a 24-hour protective moisturiser. Ensuring you have perfect, fresh, and hydrated skin all day long.

Labelled as a 5-in-1 cream because it offers five benefits in one product. After use, skin is moisturised for 24 hours and your complexion appears even and illuminated. The formula corrects blemishes and refines the skin’s texture. It also contains SPF15, which means your skin is protected against UVB and UVA rays.

Grapefruit essential oil is a key ingredient, which fights muscle aches and fatigue. Helping to protect the skin from pollution, the product is enriched with moringa oleifera micro-proteins. You will also find mineral pigments in this BB cream, which are used to create realistic skin tones for concealers and foundations.

How to use:

Apply this product directly to your neck and face

Light massage product into skin

SOME OTHER TIPS FOR GETTING DATE NIGHT RIGHT

There are some other things you can do to ensure date night goes well. This includes the following:

• Don’t talk about your ex-partner. Yes, you may be in the middle of a messy legal battle right now, but does your date want to know the ins and outs of child support in high net worth divorces? Probably not! If you feel it is important to be honest about your current situation because you carry baggage, that’s fine, but no dirty details are required!
• Make eye contact. I know, it can be difficult, but try to maintain eye contact with your date when talking, otherwise it can become awkward.
• Pick something you feel comfortable with. You don’t want to go on a date where you’re worried the entire time.
