I am going to this huge state event for a youth organization as state staff and state secretary of a board. I will be interacting with many people and I have no clue what makeup to bring. I am set on foundation, eyeliners (black and blue), brow pencil, bronzer, and blush. However, I am weary on what eye shadow and lipsticks to bring.

Tuesday I am wearing a white button up, Wednesday is a deep teal shirt with a black coverup, and Thursday is an orange shirt. I will be alternating each day with khakis and black pants. (Sunday and Monday are practice days, so I will not be all dolled up)

I have tanned skin, blonde hair, and hazel eyes.

Please help! Thank you

To keep it professional, I'd stick with warm brown eye shadows. And as for lipsticks, red with a tiny bit of dark undertones to match the hue of the teal(maybe in a matte shade?) for Wednesday, a baby pink for Tuesday, and a clear lip gloss for Thursday. I hope this helps a bit! :)

Thank you! It does help! Normally I take single eye shadows and some palettes and just do whatever I feel the day off

Yay! You're welcome :) Practicing with looks can help you decide which eye shadows you need to take. So you don't have to take everything and have the risk of loosing/damaging products. I had to learn that the hard way lol
Have fun at the convention! :)
