Hair and Makeup For a Prom
Prom Hair and Makeup Tips
First of all, keep in mind that you can save some money by doing the hair and makeup for prom by yourself. A professional makeup artist and a hair stylist are not necessarily required.
The hair and makeup for a prom are very important. So, before you set your hair and apply the makeup, make sure you read the following tips, for a flawless look.
Classic Look or Soft Look ?
You can choose to have a soft or a classic look.
If the classic one is your choice, line your lash lines using a dark purple powder eye shadow. If you want a cat-eye look, line your lash lines from the inside corner to the outside corner, apply some dry powder (make sure it is the same color) over your lids and smudge. Apply a light pink shadow on the lid from the inside to the center and blend a lavender eye shadow. Next, apply mascara. In the end, apply a pink blush on your cheeks and rouge your lips also using a pink lip gloss.
For a soft look, apply over your eyelids a soft green eye shadow and two black mascara layers. After that, line your inside rim of the lower lash line, using a white eye liner. Next, slightly apply an apricot liquid blush over your cheeks and paint your lips using a lip gloss in the same color.
Cinderella Hair
Like I said before, you should be very careful when setting your hair and makeup for a prom. Decide which of elegant or cascading waves hair styles fits best to you.
For a sweeping updo, rub the volumizing mousse into your roots. If you want to increase the volume, dry your hair so that the heat makes your hair more pliable. Now it is time to create a neat side part. After you have secured the hair into a ponytail using an elastic and teased it, spray your hair with a hold hair spray. Using a flat brush, smooth the ponytail's top layer underside. Next, curl the ponytail and secure it using bobby pins. The unsecured hair should now be pinned into the ponytail, but pull down some strands for a nice look. You decide if you want them curl or straight. In the end, spray with a lightweight hair spray for a resistant hairdo.
Ultra Feminine Curls Are Great
The prom night is an important occasion to show off your gorgeous curly hair. Of course, before doing that you have to prepare it.
First of all after you have towel-dried your hair, comb it entirely, using a wide-tooth comb. After that, blow-dry your hair and curl it carefully with a medium-sized curling iron. Make sure you do not have any straight strand of hair. Next, brush your curls using a flat brush. Not doing that will result in too perfect curls. If you are going to wear your hair down, you should try a light hair spray for a nice effect. If this "hair down" style does not fit to you, part your hair in two side sections and pull them to your head's crown, securing them with bobby pins. Also, you can let some strands to fall around, it will look better. Finally, use a hair spray.
Six Needed Things
Now you have perfect hair and makeup for a prom. It is time to find out what else you should not forget.
Well, a digital camera is often a good choice. You can take photos which will remember you later about all the great moments you had.
You have to look good in photos and not only. So, having eye shadow, foundation and lip gloss ready to hand can help you look good all the time. Keep in mind that you will be dancing and you will sweat. When you seize that your face is a little shiny, reapply some eye shadow and foundation. Beside that, you will kiss a lot of people, so a lip gloss is also needed. In addition to these makeup products, a parfume and a hair spray are useful.
Like it is written above, you will be kissing a lot of people so your breath has to be fresh. A pack of minty chewing gum can help you with that.
Unpleasant things can happen if you take into account the fact that you have to look beautiful, not to feel comfortable. Things like blisters are bothering so you should have some band-aids in your handbag.
Around the makeup products you should have a mobile phone. You can always forget something at home and calling somebody can solve the problem.
Now that you are prepared for the prom, all you have to do is to have fun.
