Prom 2018 Makeup, Hair & Outfit Ideas!

Prom 2018 Makeup, Hair & Outfit Ideas!

 

For most girls, prom is the most highly anticipated event of the year! Let's kick off this season right with all of my favorite hair & makeup trends for 2018! I will be including fabulous deals for $100 or less!

 

1. Sequins!

 

Sequin Gown $89.90 -

Sequins have to be my favorite trend this prom season, or any occasion that you can pull off a stunning gown like this one! Look for a sequin dress in a fun color, such as emerald green and you will be sure to stand out!

When it comes to wearing a gown with sequins, the rest of the look should remain simple and balanced. An easy style for the makeup & hair is to go for a matching matte eyeshadow and a messy bun.

This palette is a great match for any dress that could use a more simple, and easy eyeshadow look. The Mad for Matte Palette from e.l.f. is also a great staple for every girl's makeup bag, including a variety of soft neutral options perfect for blending out the crease!

 

2. Two-Piece!

 

A two-piece gown is a perfect way to stay in trend this season and keep the look sophisticated & flawless. If you are wearing a black gown, incorporate in pops of color with shoes & accessories to make it all your own!

Hair & Makeup Inspiration -

My go-to for any special occasion is always the little black dress, it provides me an opportunity to have some fun with my makeup. Give a sparkly glitter liner a try, or a vibrant fuschia lip color to finish off this look!

Apply this product with an angle brush in a cat eye shape, allow it to dry down fully. Then apply a dark black liquid eyeliner over the top to achieve this look, for best results go over the black liner twice.

 

3. Velvet!

 

A one sleeve dress has always been a style that I love, but in velvet, this is even better! Look out for bold colors, textures and unique asymmetrical cuts this season!

I see a velvet dress, I instantly get Hollywood movie star vibes. Playoff of this glamorous trend this season with a romantic side-swept hairstyle and a bold eye look to match!

( Pro Tip: Add some highlighter to your collarbones & shoulders to finish off any of these looks with the perfect glow! )

Apply this product on top of the eyelid with your finger to create a long-lasting base for your eyeshadow to stick to. It will give any color put over the top a more pigmented, smooth finish!

 

4. Lace!

 

For all the bohemian babes out there, I hope you fell in love with this lace dress just as much as I did! This dress has a beautiful, romantic feel that I just can't get enough of this year!

Neutral Clutch Bag is available @Nordstroms for $79.95

Hair & Makeup Inspiration -

This dress would be perfect to incorporate flowers into your hairstyle. I love a loose beach wave, or a sexy side braid to pair with this dress. Don't forget to finish off this look with a pastel shade eyeliner to really stand out!

( Pro Tip : Spraying a texturizing spray is perfect way to finish off this beautiful bohemian hairstyle! )

 

5. Mermaid!

 

I had to save the best for last with this stunning gown! This is nothing short of a show stopper, so be prepared to tone down the rest of the outfit and accessories using neutral tones.

Hair & Makeup Inspiration -

Try a sultry brown smokey eye, and a dramatic lash to complete this look. I would let the dress be the main attraction, keep the hair simple and pull it back into a sleek ponytail!
