Girls, what is that one thing that gets noticed immediately as you arrive, even before you’ve reached your friends and actually entered the party? Your dress! Well, if you’ve been seeing the trend internationally of late, the LBD is pretty much a big style mantra as always, the only refreshing change being that the LBD is now not restricted to being just black, it’s turned to being green, blue, purple or red. The secret is to make sure the fit is perfect, not too tight and not drooping down at any areas. You don’t need to spend a fortune on the dress, just buy smart, look around for end-of-season sales and pair up your dress with a great pair of heels and a matching clutch.
Before you do your makeup, make sure you’ve dampened your sponge. This will help absorb less of the product and give your face a dewy look. If you’re not using a sponge, you can get the same effect by spraying your face lightly with a face mist, or even regular water.
Tip – Once you’ve applied the foundation and a little blush, dust your face with translucent powder. Spray a little rosewater and put on a tissue for just about a second. This will make your skin look fresh and flawless.
So, when was your last dentist visit? We don’t mean to scare you, but if you’re looking to flash those pearly whites at the event, it’s a good idea to visit your dentist about 1-2 weeks in advance. Once you’ve got your teeth cleaned, make sure you stay away from tobacco, caffeine and wine. Also, if you want to retain the whiteness, try taking a pinch of sodium bicarbonate and rub it over your teeth. Rinse out with regular water.
Many celebrities swear by the steam treatment. Once your entire makeup is complete, pop into the shower and take a hot steam or a bubble bath for about 10 minutes, of course without letting any water come onto your makeup. The steam from the hot water will help set your makeup and the moisture will make your face look fresh and dewy.
Drink lots and lots of water if you already aren’t, especially from a few weeks before the event. This will give your hair, skin and nails a boost of health.
A great secret to make your curls better is to take a hair dryer to your eyelash curler a few seconds before using it.
Get your eyebrows waxed or threaded 7-10 days before the event. This will give it enough time to grow in perfect shape by the time the event happens.
You may have the perfect dress, but unless you have the right lingerie underneath, it’s just not good enough. Get yourself a good bra that lifts up your assets and a panty that doesn’t show lines from beneath the dress. Also, you may try and get yourself a tummy corset that helps tuck in the inches.
One easy trick to get that cat eye liner look easily is by using the spongy eye shadow brush that comes with the palette. Blend in, add a little black eyeliner on the inside and you’re set.
Remember, no makeup is enough unless you adopt a healthy eating lifestyle. Having healthy fruits and vegetables is also a great way to get in shape to fit in nicely into that dress. So make sure you don’t diet your way to fitness, but instead, have good food and lots of fresh fruits and vegetables and make them a part of your everyday diet. So don’t wait to try these red carpet make up looks.
