As temps soar and the party invites pile up, keep it cool with these ready-made makeup looks.

1. SULTRY
SOPHISTICATE

Keep the nightlife shuffle steady with this jet-set take on Studio 54–era Bianca Jagger: shimmering skin, standout eyebrows, long lashes and bold lips.
COP IT For a vintage feel, makeup artist Roxanne DeNobrega says don’t blend. Aim for a three-toned shadow — dark for that smokyeyed effect and a sweep of gold on the lid for added star power.
WE LOVE M.A.C. Eye Shadow in Goldmine, $17. Gold earrings from REVE jewellery (www.myspace.com/revejewellery); 1920s gold-and-silver beaded necklace from MiMi + You (www.mimiandyou.com).

2. HYPER COLOUR
What goes best with that Marc Jacobs Eve Flo Ranna pouchette in acid yellow? Nu Rave neon and sorbet florals, of course, whether it’s for that stroll through Kensington Market’s Pedestrian Sunday or that late night Shark Versus Bear (www.sharkvsbear.com) photo op.
COP IT Let loose and be playful with any combination of colour, suggests DeNobrega. Keep it balanced, though, with muted lips.
WE LOVE Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss Reflect Lip Gloss in Ultra-Girly, $24.50. Earrings, stylist’s own.
