Winter Formal Makeup? Help? With a red dress i would suggest a silver and black smoky eye. I wore this for my holiday party at work with a red dress and got soooo many compliments. Good luck
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? Im not feelin the hair its gonna look a lil wierd with the dress if its short. But anyway:
Eyes:
Smokey, everyone is doing a smokey eye with almost everything its the new black dress
Lips:
Get like a almost pink but red lip stick, coat it with a pink lipgloss
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? try to get make up that fits your skin moisture and your color. go to a professional for advice. have fun!
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? Schedule a complimentary consultation at a local makeup counter and have them do your makeup for you for free. Buy the lipstick just so you have it (and so the cosmetologist gets some sort of commission out of it).
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? first of all, love the hair!!
You need make-up that will be simple yet glamorous. I would go with a golden /bronzish glow. Accentuate the eyes, but don't overdo it. Use a mix of gold and bronze eye shadow and wear mascara and a little eye liner. Add bronzer to the outside of your face along temples and tip of cheek bones (make very light) and apply healthy blush to cheeks. Go for a bronze-burgundy lipstick with maybe some dark gloss on top. You will look beautiful!!
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? Since everything is pretty simple I wouldn't do much with the make-up,
Maybe just a nice foundation and a lot of mascara.
No need to do anything spectacular. and no worries everything will be great.
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? i luv how you're doing your hair its so hot! i think you should go with light amkeup becasue you have such a bright dress. Or just really accentuate your eyes- do a smoky eye look ,and then keep the rest of your face really light- like do really light/pale pink lips
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? Maybe like a blueish silverish whiteish color for eyeshadow. and black mascara and black eyeliner Hope all goes well
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? Winter Do #1: Goodbye Helmet Head The less done your hair looks, the more 'in' you'll look. You'll notice trendy hair this season looks loose, wavy %26amp; fresh. To mimic it, throw out the hairspray, use a light mousse instead of gel to add texture %26amp; don't be afraid to let your roots grow out, just a bit.
Winter Don't #1: Grow nails long %26amp; finish them with a French manicure Short, round nails are hot for this season. Skip the long-taloned manicure %26amp; instead, paint your nails dark.
Winter Do #2: Don't throw out the self-tanner yes, we love Nicole Kidman's porcelein skin too, but there's nothing sexier than a bronzed glow in the dead of winter. You'll always look as if you just got back from the tropics.
Winter Don't #2: Layer on the foundation A fresh face -- admittedly hard to get in winter if you live in the cold climes -- is key this winter. But to look fresh, you must take it easy with the foundation. No one needs to slather on foundation all over her face. Stick to your bad zones, typically around your eyes, your nose %26amp; on your cheeks. You don't need foundation on your forehead or even neck. Another tip: Skip foundation altogether %26amp; use concealer around your eyes %26amp; nose.
Winter Do #3: Go smoky on the eyes, pale on the lips To get perfect smoky eyes, use brown shades if you're blonde, dark brown if you are brunette %26amp; deep purple or black if you have black hair (the best black is 'la femme hollywood'). Start with eyeliner, moving on to a dark eyeshadow, lightening as you go up the lid. A bit of shimmer on the inside corner of the eye %26amp; on the browbone gives you a super 'awake' look. Try Benefit High Brow ($18 at benefitcosmetics.com). Oh %26amp; don't be afraid to pile on the mascara. Applying multiple coats really does thicken.
Winter Don't #3: Avoid red lips Red lips %26amp; pale skin are a classic look that endures. Dior's rich, red shades are favorites of stylists. Just be sure to lay off the self-tanner if you're going for red lips.
Winter Do #4: Layer your favorite fragrances Sarah Jessica Parker created her own unique scent by layering 3 fragrances -- one super cheap, a man's musk %26amp; a fabulous rich scent. The result isn't her new 'Lovely' but she swears she's still trying to mimic her favorite scent. Parker's right on to a hot trend of the moment: layering two fragrances to create a new scent. How to do it? Take your favorite scent %26amp; layer a new one atop it. Try out several versions until you find your favorite mix.
Winter Don't #4: Ignore your feet Yes your feet are all covered up during the winter, but it's such a treat to keep them groomed. Either treat yourself to pedicures or do them yourself. Also, keep a buffing stick in the shower %26amp; slough off that nasty dead skin. A great one is Feet First Buffing Pad ($4 at purebeauty.com) used in combination with a sugar rub. Try Pure Fiji Sugar Rub ($32 at purefiji.com).
Winter Do #5: Moisturize after every shower Skin left unmoisturized will itch, and itching (especially done when you're not paying complete attention) can cause scabs, which in turn can scar. In the shower, make sure you exfoliate your body thoroughly with a loofah. I like wearing those loofah gloves. Then when you get out %26amp; dry off, slather on the moisturizer. My favorite? Kiel's.
Winter Don't #5: Pooh-pooh fake eyelashes Trust us, Jessica Simpson has gorgeous eyes because she slaps on the falsies. There are all sorts of false eyelashes to try these days. Don't want to be too obvious? Try the individual lashes.
Extra tip: Don't let the winter scalies take over your lips this winter. Nothing is nastier than dead skin on your lips. So why do we get chapped lips in the cold season? Your lips are susceptible to drying because they contain no oil glands. Plus, when the cold comes, frequent lip-licking doesn't help. This winter steer clear of matte lipsticks which tend to be drying while also showing off scaly lips. Instead, try lip gloss. A great gloss (like MAC's lipglass) will prove more moisturizing. Don't want to mess with a gloss? A great hydrating lip balm is Blistex Lip Infusion. it contains lanolin which keeps the moisture in.
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? um considering the color of your dress i would suggest a black eyeliner make it a thick line and a longer tail at the end of your eye and just thin black line on bottom get to different toned silvers one lighter and the other darker and put the lighter color on your eyelid and up right by the eyebrow and the darker color put in the arch part of your eyelid.. like right above the part you put with lighter and below the part you put with lighter...i dont know if i explained that right but if you do it right it should look hot....
Winter Formal Makeup? Help? i like the comment on golden/brownish tones on the eyes. you can wear red lipstick just remember you have to go light on the eyes. when it comes to dramatic make up, its always either one or the other; dark eyes or dark lips, but not both, it looks trashy.
You know, you can get your make up done for FREE at a make up counter. If you do, MAC is your best bet. If there isn't one close to you, try Chanel, Estee Lauder, or Shiseido.
I'm so excited for you!! I'm sure your boyfriend will love the way you look. Don't forget to apply lip gloss before you take pictures, and get them done right away before everything gets frazzled.
