| Prom Beauty Tips |
Eye Shadow
Choose a color that compliments both your eyes and your dress. Select 3 shades in the same color family - light, medium, and dark.
 | Apply the lightest shade on entire lid from brow to lashes. |
 | The medium shade should be applied from the lashes to just above the crease. This shade should bring out the color of your eyes and dress. |
 | The darkest color should be applied close to the lashes. |
Eye Liner
Choose a well-sharpened black pencil. Start with a very thin line at the inner corner and let it widen slightly as you get to the outer edge. Practice makes perfect!
Eyebrows
Don't forget the eyebrows! Always choose an eyebrow pencil that closely matches your hair color. Using light short strokes, start at the center and work outward. Make sure brows are properly shaped using tweezers, although the "natural" look is in fashion and tweezing may not be necessary.
Mascara
Whatever type you choose (waterproof, flakeproof, thickening, etc.), make sure it is black. The only exception is if you have very white brows and lashes, choose brown. Make sure it is on perfectly before you apply mascara. Apply mascara with upward and outward strokes. Don't use too much or lashes will become matted, and you don't want that to happen!
Blush
There are many techniques to apply cheek color. Here's a very easy way: choose a color that closely matches your desired lip color. Apply a dusting of color using small circular movements to the cheekbones. Blend to hide edges.
Foundation
Believe it or not, the use of foundation is not really necessary for a finished appearance. A good moisturizer is essential though, to keep your skin radiant. However, if you do want or need some additional coverage, make sure the foundation is applied lightly, so as not to clog pores or look like a mask. The shade of foundation should closely match your existing skin tone. Natural is key! Your best bet is an oil-free product with SPF protection. Lightly set make-up with powder.
Lipstick
To achieve lasting lip color, apply a light layer of foundation to lips and allow to dry. Color should be applied to center of lips and move outward. Blot with a tissue. Reapply a second layer of color. This will ensure color that will last the entire prom evening!
Remember! A natural look is best. The more comfortable you feel with your make-up, the more confident you'll be in any situation.
All hair care products don't always work well on all hair types (dry, oily, permed, colored, normal). Chances are what works for your best friend may not work for you. Products really do help style hair, hold a set longer, give lift and protect your hair. It is important to read labels!
Try several brands to determine the product that makes your hair shine and feel great!
Did you know that bangs are in style again? To ensure picture-perfect bangs, try this:
 | For large features, have bangs cut wider. |
 | For delicate features, narrow or wide bangs will work. |
 | To style, mist bangs with a volumizing hairspray and blow smooth with a paddle brush. |
