Hey Guys,
So I've got my school ball coming up, I was just wondering whether anyone has any ideas for makeup? I've got a blue dress, well it's two-toned. It's white/sky blue/dark blue. c:
Anything would be helpful! Thanks. x

I really like the classic liquid liner with red lips look. Try doing a cat-eye (trend this spring) with black liquid liner and if you really want to get festive, get some fake lashes. You want these to be fuller lashes so anything with lots of volume. I'd keep the face very, very neutral. Not a lot of bronzer or blush, maybe a very light pink blush in a barely-there way. And for lips, I'd do a red color (also very in style this spring). If you want to see what I recommend in terms of red for your skin color and hair color, see my tumblr! Here's the link:

Let me know if you like this idea & if you don't I can always think of something else!

No problem! I do, actually...I have these three favorite products of mine that I layer all together to create the most gorgeous combination of bronzey shades.

First I use Clinique's touch tine for eyes in 06 nude sparkle, then I put some L'Oreal HIP pigment in 848 Tenacious from the inner corner to the eyelid's midway mark, then I take Bare Minerals glimpse in Saucy and I blend the two colors in the middle of my eye and take this color to the outer corner of the eye & blend into the socket to create some depth. I'll take a little of the excess "saucy" color under my eyes. Then some seriously black mascara and you're good to go!

I love these colors together and wear them quite frequently, today included! Let me know what you think!

Emily! Sorry it took a while to get back to you! I decided to film a video on it and post it to my YouTube channel because I love the look so much!
