Make Time to Freshen Up Before a Date

If you’ve decided to go to dinner after work, leave enough time to clean yourself up. You should never go into a date without making an effort to gussy yourself. Take a shower, shave, put on your special perfume or aftershave, and really look the part. You want to make an effort and not look like you just crawled out of the office where you sat for the last 10 hours.

You may think sparkle eye shadow will make your blue eyes pop, and perhaps, they will, but you’re going on a date, not to Carnival in Rio.
