GET THE LOOK: PROM




 So I've been trying to come up with something to write about that would be helpful for people going to prom, sort of like a get ready for prom look. So, my prom was last week and personally I find the whole getting ready to be the best part. Creating different looks, and creating that flawless base really makes you stand out from the crowd on the day. 

So, for those of you doing your own makeup ( like I did) then here is a little step by step guide to creating the look I wore below. 

(Excuse the overgrown eyebrows, I'm trying to keep the fuller look)

Tips for keeping your makeup in place all night- 

1. Use a primer such as Nivea's primer which provides a soft base. 
2. Avoid powder unless you have oily skin as a dewy finish compliments the look.
3. Use a lasting foundation such as Estee Lauder Double Wear which lasts all night. 
4. Use a setting spray such as NYX or Urban Decay
5. Prime the eyelids to prevent creasing especially if using dark colours 
6. Apply less makeup but blend well. Its a common misconception that the more foundation you apply the longer it lasts. 
7. For fuller coverage, apply little and layer on. With Estee Lauder its best not to layer as it is a full coverage foundation. 



If your going to prom, then these tips will ensure your makeup stays in place & you look flawless all night long.
