How should I do my make up for Semi Formal?

Semi formal is only a month away and I'm so excited! I'm thinking about how I should do my make up and I can't decide. I'm wearing a little cute black dress and I'm doing my hair in curls. I have black hair, natural red lips, and fair skin. I'm also asian...if that helps lol.

My choices are

a)Smoky plum purple look is subtle but still sweet with a sheer lipstick and semi dramatic mascara on top lashes only.

b) The natural make up is sheer beige eye shadow, some mascara and deep red rose lips think christmas red.

have you ever thought of going with golds and pinks? or even a brown/gold smokey eye. If your dress is totally black...id suggesst going with a brown/gold smokey eye. Its not that difficult but you'll need atleast 3 different shades of brown and a shade of gold.

1) Use a base color on your whole lid. This could be a goldish brown or even a copperish brown. apply it all over the lid and a bit into the crease of your eye.

2) then take a lighter creamy brown and apply it from the corner of your eye closest to your nose to around the middle of your eye.

3) after that, use a dark brown near the end corners of the eye blending it into the middle.

4) apply a shear gold color into your crease and up near the eyebrow...as a highlighter.

5) If you want use a little bronzer on your cheeks with a rose colored blush. blend it together.

6) Then use a light pink on the lips for a finish.

Trust me this looks really good if u have the right brushes and colors. Ive done it before and i also matched gold accersories with it...so everything blended in.

ok so..

im in the fashion business.

so im an expert in this field.

you dont want to overpower your black dress.

the black dress is a powerful statement. agreed?

since you do have nice red lips.

you should go subtle yet glamorous on

the eyes.

ill give you some makeup instuctions for the big semi.

(this look was also used by christian dior!)

the look is bright peach lips and structured brows.

fill in lips with a nude lip pencil

this is to make your gloss last.

then sweep on the peach gloss

use a brow pencil to define your arches

and brush brown or black mascara on your lashes

and a shimmery coral blush on the apples of your

cheeks pulls the look together

TA DA!

beautiful for semii!
