Question I have prom this weekend and would like my makeup to be perfect. I was wondering if you had some simple tips to help me out. Also if you had tips for a smokey eye in particular, or any other eye makeup.
Thanks =)
Answer The best thing to do is accentuate your eyes and keep the rest light so your eyes pop. Tips for a smoky eye... stay away from black, try either silvery grey or purple maybe depending on what color your dress is. Find pictures of smoky eyes you like and then practice in the mirror until you are happy with how it turns out. Try a really nice nude or simple sheer pink on your lips so that when it wears off you wont really notice.
