How to apply perfect special occasion makeup?

Special Occasion Makeup Tutorial

Looking flawless for your special occasion, whether its a wedding, prom or party, is a really important part of getting ready. Any woman's outfit would not be complete without a well made up face, but it is so easy to fall into a makeup rut, that sometimes you will need a lot of helping out and inspiration.

Getting a flawless complexion is as much about great nutrition and fabulous skin care, as how you apply foundation and concealer. So drink 6-8 glasses of water each day, and eat your five portions of fruit & veg.

Occasion Eye Makeup

Eye makeup for a special occasion should be a lot bolder than your regular everyday eye makeup. That way you can make a statement, just by the amount of eye shadow you wear, it doesn't even have to be about the color you use. Go to a Body Shop or Mac counter for some advice and test of different products and colors.

How to Apply False Eyelashes

Fake eyelashes are not always obvious. Individual lashes, when applied correctly look invisible whilst giving the lashes extra volume and visibly opening up the eye.Firstly, you'll need your glue and your lashes. A local Sally's will have these, and short black or brown is probably the best type to choose for a natural look. Lay a clump of lashes on top of your own, and glue it to your lashline. Wait for it to dry and cover them with mascara.

Luscious Lips

Find a lip plumping gloss with peppermint extract for a real boost. And don't forget to choose a delicious lipstick shade that will compliment your skin tones, try out reds and pinks to work out which best suits you, one shade will pop and the other will be a subtle blend. The latter will be more complimentary, and is the appropriate shade for you!

Oh, and don't forget the perfect special occasion hairstyle!
