Prom help. ha

Guest

Alright, i'm Cara. I've been a lurker for like ever, joined before then I got deleted, but now I need haaaaalp.

So prom is in two weeks, and I have no clue what I should do for makeup, or hair even

This is my dress:

And I'll have silver accessories to match my date.

My face and hair: That was taken a while back, my hair is aboutttt almost an inch longer, and never that perfect looking.

Buuut my hair is naturally curly: (also never that perfect looking)

So, i'm really looking for some fun makeup and something cool for hair. Pictures would reaaallyyy help.

Mucho thanks in advaaaance.

I think the hair would look super cute if you curled it, like, more than your natural curls.. and then maybe your bangs clipped back a little with the silver clips?

Okay, first, your eyes are gawgeous! I especially love the color in the second picture. Second, that's a really cute dress. Third, I agree with Gina :]

Your hair is fine as is when curly. It would stand out among all the sleek haired, over-tanned skanks. If you have clips, just pull your bangs back and you'll be right as rain.

Why not try a subtle smoky eye? like, barely even enough to be thought of as smoky or too OTT. Just a little taupe on the lid, a dark brown or black in the crease and smudged under a bit, a nude shimmer as a highlight, and lastly, flicked liner. then a sheer pink lip, maybe? and, if you want, you can wear bronzer in lieu of blush [I think you are in you first pic? if so, it looks very nice].

I can never find good pics demonstrating that, I'd do it for you myself, but I'm still trying to make sure my eyes don't fall out after that allergic reaction I had. if you like, I'd be happy to give it a shot this weekend. :]

I agree with Puff for the makeups. And I would say that you could even throw a little of that sea foam greeny color into the eyes somewhere to pull it togehter and to make your eyes pop a little more.

PS. You're super gorgeous. Like Alexandra said, you have gorgeous eyes. Come out of hiding and join the forum, girly. Smile

I think a pinkie-orangey lip would look adorable,
like
MAC's new High 90's Slimshine.

You're right Jay, an orangey [almost apricot] shade would look really nice with that dress - it wouldn't clash, and it would totally stant out.

Aw thanks for the replies ladies. Smile

I'll definitely do some test runs of your suggestions.
But examples and such would be rockin'

Cara you have the most beautiful eyes!
I agree with veronica, a pomp would be lovely, maybe with the rest in a high pony tail, all curly..I think that'd look cute and girly.

That would be amazing! Smile

I would just like to say that I love your dress and that you're the prettiest little thing ever.

I'm liking the curly hair and bangs back idea.
I reckon a subtle smokey eye but like... with a forest green in the crease?
And either an apricoty lip or a nudey kinda pink.

Wow, this girl did the makeup for me. And I didn't even realize til I was about to do it. >.<

But yes! Something like that! And the best part about this eye, is that you can always change the crease colour if you wanted to...so if you didn't want black, it could be...purple, turquoise, whatever!
