Knowing
your teeth are white and your breath is fresh will boost your confidence and
keep you smiling—which is the prettiest accessory you can have! Nowadays there
are plenty of products that freshen and whiten instantly, but
we suggest stashing a travel-size tube of Supersmile Quikee polish, which does
both with just one swipe across your teeth, and you won’t be stuck with trash
or gum afterward.

2. Face
Although most women believe a smoky eye or statement lip is essential for sexy
date makeup, most men think less is more. So stick with a natural and simple
look: a layer of waterproof mascara, a swipe of duo lip and cheek tint, and
neutral eye shadows. Unlike dramatic makeup, this wont require touch-ups or get
smudged.

3. Nails
Squeezing in a manicure is virtually impossible when you are running on
borrowed time. But luckily the latest nail stickers don't need to dry and come
in a slew of shades so you can select the right hue or print for your outfit.
If you can't spare five minutes for application, just use a polish-removing
towelette to make your nails look fresh and clean.

4. Hair
If you don't want to wear your hair loose, go with a ponytail. Side-swept,
messy, or high, not only is the versatile style the easiest 'do to master but
it is also the quickest way to mask a bad hair day. Plus, the loose ends can
still give you a flirty, carefree vibe. Just be sure the style you choose
matches the outfit—and in turn, the evening—you have planned.

Ponytail Holders
Just like your
wardrobe, you can hold on to items for years and not use them. But unlike
clothing, beauty products can go bad, and when they do, using them can be
unhealthy and even harmful. The best way to avoid this is to keep from hoarding
multiple products with the same purpose at the same time. But if it is
unavoidable (don’t worry, we do it too!) stay on top of each item's expiration
date with Beautylish’s helpful guide.
