We all know that when we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/beauty\/prom-hair-ideas\/\">look good<\/a>, we feel good; but the other way around is just as important: When we feel good, we look good. Take this day to pamper yourself so that you may radiate health and happiness&#8211;and have an amazing night to remember! Whether you&#8217;re planning on amping up a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/fashion\/black-prom-dresses\/\">black dress<\/a> or taking a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/fashion\/2020-prom-dresses\/\">colorful look<\/a> to the next level, scroll on. This prom makeup tutorial&#8211;featuring bright <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/beauty\/beauty-how-to-new-years-eve-eyeshadow-tutorial\/\">eyeshadow<\/a>&#8211;is fun, edgy, and unforgettable!<\/div>\n<div>\n<h2>Prom Makeup Tutorial<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Skin Prep:<\/h4>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236781\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/makeup1.jpg\" alt=\"prep skin before makeup\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1420\" \/>\n<div><strong>Step 1:\u00a0<\/strong> A quick way to refresh skin is to use a light exfoliant. My favorites are\u00a0Peter Thomas Roth Firming Peeling Gel,\u00a0Charlotte Tilbury Goddess Clay Mask,\u00a0and\u00a0Tatcha Violet- C Radiant Face mask. These masks are quick and make the most difference while applying makeup. (Always patch test in your inner forearm to make sure you&#8217;re not allergic to any ingredients.)<\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 2:\u00a0<\/strong> Moisturize your skin with your favorite moisturizer&#8211;and don&#8217;t forget your sunscreen!<\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 3:\u00a0<\/strong> Apply a light and luminous primer to catch the beautiful evening setting and lighting of prom. Here, I used Charlotte Tilbury Wonder glow\u00a0primer.<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> Finish your face with a light foundation, conceal where needed, and set your face with a light loose powder to keep the center of the face shine-free.<\/p>\n<h4>Eyes:<\/h4>\n<p>Prom is a perfect opportunity to dazzle with your eyes&#8211;so let them do all the talking on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/fashion\/quiz-prom-dresses\/\">big night<\/a>!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/2.jpg\" alt=\"purple eyeshadow for prom\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1497\" \/><\/p>\n<div><strong>Step 5:<\/strong> Prep eyelids with your foundation or concealer and set it with your loose powder. This will give us a blank\/ bright canvas to work on making the pigments and colors pop. I chose a shimmery purple to make my model&#8217;s blue eyes pop. This would be a wonderful color for green eyes as well. A warmer pink or purple would be stunning on brown and darker eyes. I&#8217;m in love with the Viseart Eyeshadow palette&#8211;it has so many options and the colors are just stunning and so easy to work with. Apply this color all over the lid and also run it through the lower lash line. Buff out the edges with a clean brush to soften the colors.<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236770\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/3.jpg\" alt=\"eye makeup prom tutorial\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1471\" \/><\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 6:<\/strong> Use a lighter shimmering pink to highlight the inner corners and brow bone. This brings dimension to the look.<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236774\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/6.jpg\" alt=\"eye makeup tutorial\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1498\" \/><\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 7: <\/strong>Skip lining the lids with any dark colors thereby keeping the color used as the focus. This also helps the look remain fresh. Line the waterline with a white eyeliner (I used Sephora Collection Glide liner in White Snow).<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236776\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/7.jpg\" alt=\"mascara step in prom makeup tutorial\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1534\" \/><\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 8:<\/strong>\u00a0Add lashings of mascara to help open the eyes.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<h4>Finish the Look:<\/h4>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236772\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/5.jpg\" alt=\"highlighter step tutorial\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1493\" \/><\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 9:<\/strong> Apply your favorite nude blush on the apples of your cheek. This will help bring color to your face without overdoing it. (I used Hourglass Ambient Light Blush in Mood Exposure) Highlight the tops of your cheekbones, bridge of nose and cupid&#8217;s bow with a highlighter (such as Dior Face glow palette).<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-236779\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/9.jpg\" alt=\"pink lips in beauty tutorial\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1573\" \/><\/div>\n<div><strong>Step 10:<\/strong> Fill your lips with a beautiful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lulus.com\/categories\/4000\/rose.html\">rose pink<\/a> color, or if you&#8217;re feeling daring, wear a bright magenta like our model.
