You have purchased your prom dress, shoes, jewelry, and handbag. You have decided on whether you will style your hair yourself or go to a beautician. Now you need to decide if you will do your own makeup or have it done professionally. With 2007 prom dresses, it’s all about fashion, and makeup is a part of that fashion statement that will make you shine!

If you are one that does not like to wear makeup, you will need to wear a small amount for your prom. Makeup will bring your features out and cover those unwanted blemishes.

If you have decided to do your own makeup, put on your makeup before putting on your prom dress. This is a precaution to protect your prom dress from any drops or spills that may take place while you are applying your makeup.

There are many tips for applying makeup that can bring out your natural beauty.

Foundation and Concealer

The first step in applying makeup is choosing the perfect foundation. This is done by matching the makeup with your skin tone and complexion. Always make sure the makeup is well blended and there are no foundation lines around the neck. For any visible blemishes or dark circles under the eyes, a concealer can be used. Just dab it on lightly and blend it in good with the foundation.

Eye Makeup

Once your foundation is applied, your eyes are the next important step. You do not want your eye shadow to match the color of your prom dress, but you do want it to compliment the dress. In order to highlight your eyes, you will use a lighter shade or the base color from the lash line to the brow. Use a darker shade as a contour along the upper lash line from the center toward the outer corner, then back along crease.

Many online shoppers have abandoned the garage sales and turned to convenient Internet shopping to find great deals on dresses, lingerie, evening wear and more! You too can find almost any dress style, size, color and material online, and usually at a tremendous discount.

But first, you must know how to shop online. Here are some excellent pointers to finding that perfect dress with the style and price you want.

Find Dresses through Online Searches

If you already know what type of dress you want, you can narrow your search through the search engines by typing in specific keywords related to that dress style. For instance, if you want a large trapeze-style brown strapless dress, don’t only type the words “brown dress” into a search engine. You’ll get millions of results showing all types of brown dresses. Instead, type the entire phrase in quotes to get more specific results. If you want a small red stretch gown, type in the entire phrase in quotes.

Another way to do specific searches is to shop at an online mall for dresses and other ladies fashion items. Many “dress-shop” malls offer a variety of products including dresses, plus size fashions, lingerie, watches, shirts and skirts, underwear and thongs, Capri pants, denim wear, evening wear and more. Some malls even give tremendous deals and have special offers such as a “free panty with a dress purchase” or some other similar discount special.

Here are some great prom tips to get your wheels turning.

Prom Dresses with No Straps or Spaghetti Straps

The neckline can look bare when wearing a prom dress that has no straps or spaghetti straps. A plain neckline can easily be brightened with a beautiful, sparkly necklace and matching earrings. The type of necklace you choose should blend well with your dress colors and fabric. With a prom dress that has lots of lace or sequence, a plain gold or silver necklace will do. Or, maybe even a simple strand of pearls. With a simple satin dress, wear a necklace that sparkles with unique design. Add a charming slide as a bonus.

Gloves and Shawls

Strapless prom dresses also look great with satin or lace gloves a shawl. The gloves and shawl should match the color(s) of your prom dress for a simple, but elegant look! Shawls can be worn around the neck or loosely held around the upper arms.

Half-Jackets

If shawls aren’t your style, try a half-jacket instead. These typically come in satin finish to match the color of your prom dress, or in a lacy see-through style. There are even jackets that tie in the front mid-section to cover the tummy! Pick the jacket that looks best with your body type. Try one on with your prom dress to be sure it offers the look you want.
