When looking at prom dresses and the variety of colours that they are available in, you will immediately be able to deduce which ones are popular choices. On top of the most commonly chosen colour for prom dresses is red. If you’re one of these women who are going to dance the night away in red, then you’d want to plan out your entire prom look now.
Yes, red is a truly glamorous choice for gowns and it can make quite a statement. Just take a look at the red prom dresses for 2019 at Peaches Boutique and you’ll see an array of the most desirable gowns you’d want to wear to prom. However, because of its bold quality, you should also be careful with how you intend to wear a red gown. Accessorizing can be quite tricky. What pieces of jewellery can you wear with it? What shoes will look good with it?
Makeup will also be a challenging decision to come up with. What makeup look works best with a red prom dress? Below are some attractive makeup ideas that you can try to complement your eye-catching red dress:
1. Red Lips
Nothing can be bolder than choosing a red lipstick to wear with your red dress. Yes, that is one of the main concerns of people who are afraid to wear red on red. When done hastily, it can look overdone. But, when done right, the bold red lipstick is true beauty as it channels old Hollywood glamour. If you’re confident enough to pull this look, then you’ll surely be a sight to behold.
When you do decide to wear bold red lips, make sure that all other features are kept simple. Wear only a light eye shadow and simple cat’s eye to avoid a heavy or overdone look.
In deciding which shade of red lipstick to wear, look for ones that best suit your complexion and matches the hue of your dress. If you are unsure, go for the bluish red-shades, which generally suit most skin types.
2. Nude Makeup
If you aren’t up for the red on red look, you can always opt for nude makeup. Many celebrities have worn a nude glow with their red gowns, which means that this makeup look is a sure winner. By showcasing your skin’s natural glow, you allow both your facial features and your fancy red dress to share the stage without overpowering either one.
To achieve this look, use a tinted moisturizer in lieu of foundation and put on some glow powder on your entire face. On the apples of your cheeks, apply shimmer and bronzing powder so that it creates a glowing appeal. Go for natural, matte, or black eye makeup. And complete the look with a sheer or nude lip gloss or lipstick.
3. Smoky Eyes
Apparently, there are now many versions of the smoky eyes. From the classic black to the metallic smoky eyes, you can create a dramatic effect that complements your fiery red dress.
For example, if you’re wearing a long red dress, you can opt for smoky eyes and a sleek cat’s eye. When you opt for this makeup look, the rest of the face should be kept simple. Just wear a thin coat BB cream or a tinted moisturizer and add some peachy or pinkish highlighters on the cheeks. Cap this dramatic look with a nude lip.
Or, you can be adventurous and try your own makeup looks to pair with your red prom dress. Just make sure you’re comfortable wearing that to prom.
