Go from Day to Night in less than 5 minutes

This stunning photo shows a quick way to take your eye makeup from day to night and was created by @theamazingworldofj using Motives Beauty Weapon Palette ! It features nine complementary colors and two shades of lip gloss. If you travel the Beauty Weapon is a must have!! It’s super light weight, has a magnetic cover and is beyond convenient. It also includes an easy to follow tutorial for creating three different looks — intense, natural, and smokey right on the inside panel. My favorite is the olive green with gold shimmer. Which is your favorite?
