This year metallic is in as a theme and this allows for a dramatic stand out look.
Metallic and smoky eyes have been a big theme on the catwalks and other dramatic colours such as red and plum and electric blue
If you go for a standout colour or you want to be more conservative, the Beauty tips below will help get you noticed.
Make up
1. A great quick beauty secret is some false lashes. You can use alternate short and medium lashes to get a soft innocent look, or look more feline and vampy by using shorter lashes in the centre and medium ones to the side.
2. Eyes are one of your most important assets so make them the centre of attention.
3. Lips should be sexy! If you have pale skin you can use a blackish red lipstick, that will give you a gothic look or another standout colour such as purple.
4. For classy eye make up go for a silver - gold look with eye makeup. It gives an effervescent look and is the ultimate in sophistication.
Nails
Your nails if properly done will always get noticed, so what are the best colours for a party?
1. A French manicure is always classy and a safe choice but if you want to be a bit more daring and metallic crimson reds are a great option.
2. Try and match your lips to your nails. You communicate with both and this will make the upper body frame and make you look chic and sexy.
Hair
For a quick great look try the following - A long bob with a straight parting, which is a classic stylish look. It's extremely easy to do and the parting can be down the side or centre.
You can also tuck one side behind your ear so you can get some glitzy sparkly earrings.
Face
1. Get your face prepared a day or two before.
The reason for this is if you have a facial on the day impurities tend to come to the surface and you don't want that on the night! Do 48 hours before to ensure your skin looks its best and simply exfoliate on the day.
2. Powdered skin always gives a uniform appearance so use concealer rather than foundation which can make your face look tired and mask like.
Body
Relax in essential oils and let them moisturize and tone your skin on the day. Exfoliate the day before (not on the day) to avoid possible short term irritation. Make sure you moisturize all over afterwards.
Fragrance
Use strong smelling fragrances such as amber or musk, as they will give a pleasant scent in any party atmosphere.
Just a few beauty secrets that are quick and easy to do and of course there are many more - that will help you look your best on your big night.
Black Women Beauty Tips
Once Upon A Time, hair fashion moved slowly. A look that was popular in one century might still be just as current in the next. And when looks did change, they did so subtly - maybe the shape of a curl became more pronounced, or the curl disappeared entirely, or an up-do became a bit flatter and migrated from the crown to the back of the head. Today, however, fashion moves at lightning speed. Looks no longer survive a full year; most die after a season. To make matters worse, the changes are drastic. In 3 months, pixies can give way to long shags, only to move in another 3 months to sleek near-the-waist manes. No one I know has hair that grows that fast! So the best advice I can give you, and which has been given to me by countless stylists, is to disregard most of what's happening in fashion.
Staying in style
You probably don't want to ignore fashion totally - nor do most hairdressers want you to. After all, you want to look contemporary. Instead of changing your entire look to mimic what's going on in Vogue, however, try changing an element. Let's say you notice banged bobs in all the magazines - and indeed, you even read several articles on "banged bobs for spring." Perhaps you hate bobs, but wouldn't mind updating your look. The easy solution? After studying trends, choose an element that you happen to like. In this instance, get bangs.
Before you incorporate current trends into your 'do, talk to your hairdresser. For instance, if wispy looks make an appearance and your hair is too thin to carry off the layering needed for such styles, your stylist can create a slight touch of wispiness in your bang area.
Sunscreen
There Was a Time when we didn't know tanning was bad for us. Back then, we'd lie in the sun for hours, slathering ourselves with homemade concoctions such as baby oil mixed with iodine, in an effort to increase that tan. Today, we absolutely know better - there is no such thing as a healthy tan!
What many people forget, however, is that sunscreen is just as important for the body. Daily sunscreen is a must. Opt for a product with high UVA and UVB protection, such as a formula with zinc oxide or Parsol1789 (also called avobenzone).
