Makeup & Skincare - Prom make up


Expert: Tyla Smith - 5/5/2009

Question
Hey Tyla,
I was wondering if you can help me to choose my make up for
my prom evening. I will be wearing a summer midi silk dress
in pale, soft yellow color, and I really have no make-up
ideas. My skin tone is very pale, my eyes are brown, and my
hair is light-brown with a soft auburn-ish shade. What make
up, in your opinion,would suit me best?
Thanks in advance,
Anna

Answer
I would recommend a light smoky eye with either brown or grey tones only on the top lid to make your eyes appear bigger.  Go with a nice cheek gel for color and longevity and a pretty pale long lasting lip gloss, so as the night goes on if it comes off it wont be super noticeable.  On the brow bone use a highlighting eyeshadow to make your brow bone pop.

Good luck- hope this helps!!
