Here below are given some tips like how to enhance your best features.

To look fresh on prom night you need to give special attention to your skin. Do not forget that it is a very long occasion and your skin should be lively till the event finishes. Drink plenty of water to flush out impurities, and embark upon a thorough cleansing, toning and moisturizing regime. Start doing facial some months before prom to keep face clean and fresh. Before the night avoid cleansing as that tends to irritate the skin and produce a red rough appearance. While choosing foundation, choose the one that matches your skin tone. To do this, go for foundation shopping in natural daylight. The skin on your hands won't necessarily be the same color as the skin on your face, so make sure you don't make this common mistake! Apply a couple of shades on your face near your jaw, take a mirror and head outside to double check the perfect color to match your neck. Next, research that your foundation matches your skin type. If you have oily skin, you'll want to select a matte foundation that will soak up extra moisture; if you're lucky enough to have dewy skin already, a light, shimmer foundation will be all you'll need.

While shopping for an eye shadow do remember to choose the one that suits your skin, hair and eye color rather than your dress. A shimmer eye shadow with just a hint of glitter can help add a little glamour to prom makeup. Another nice prom makeup expression is to draw your eyeliner over your top lid for a sexy, starlet look.

You need to keep your lips smooth to the big event so apply plenty of lip balm. On the night itself, make sure your lipstick lasts by bringing your foundation down over your lips first, outlining with lip liner and then coloring in the lips themselves with the same liner. Now add your lipstick to your prom makeup scheme, blot once and powder, then apply and blot again. Your lipstick should last all night, but carry a little extra in a small makeup bag for those necessary touch ups. The most important factor that should be kept in mind is that a natural makeup looks great with a classic or trendy prom dress. The Prom night is the most fashionable and glittered night whose memories you will cherish throughout your life. It is important to have a good normal base of makeup to work with so you don’t end up looking too made up or not at all like yourself.
