Prom is here and the dresses are fabulous, the hair is flawless, but is your pout perfect? There are a few secrets that we want to share with you to help you keep your lips looking fabulous all night long.

If you are going for the smokey eye and you want a luscious nude lip, here are some tricks to keep that flesh tone glossy lip look for prom:

1. First, use a bit of primer that you use for your foundation around the outside of your lip. This will help fill in any lines and keep your gloss set.
2. Next, put some concealer around the outside of the lip and on the lip as well. This will take the pink tone out to give you a true nude.
3. Then fill in the lip with a nude pencil that matches your foundation exactly. This will allow your gloss to wear longer.
4. Finally apply your favorite nude gloss and go!

Of course keep your gloss and a small concealer with you because you will want to reapply it of course… it IS prom! Our favorites for the perfect nude pout are:

• Stila lip glaze in apricot, this is absolutely beautiful and will last!
• Bare Escentuals has a kit that will make it simple to get this look and you can find it at Sephora or sephora.com
• My absolute favorite has always been to use M.A.C. stripdown liner, Blankety Lipstick, it has incredible coverage and works amazing with Florabundance lip gloss. This is a fool proof way to get the perfect nude pout for your prom!

Remember, makeup is all about how you want to express who you are. I am a huge fan of the nude lip and if you follow these simple tips and techniques, you will look fabulous in the nude…Lip that is! Have fun!
