I'm a little bit useless with makeup so I'm having it done professionally for my senior ball tomorrow (or prom as a lot of you call it :p) apparently its a good idea to bring pictures/have an idea of what you want, but I have no idea!
I have blue eyes, quite light skin, and long brown hair which will be curled to one side. my dress is flowy and very, very light pink... any suggestions? :D
Maybe get a neutral eye with a pop of pink? I do that pretty often and the neutrals (browns, ivories, etc.) make blue eyes pop while the pink is to add some color (and it will match your dress!). Good luck and have fun!
Well I would suggest the baby pink colored eyeshadow ( its only slightly tinted so it doesn't appear to dramatic but it has a lot of sparkle) it looks beautiful on! I got a set of 6 from Claires and they are great for formal events. You could also do a brown smokey eye, it would bring out the little bits of brown in your dress and complete the look :) I'm sure you'll look great... have fun!
