I feel nervous about doing my first full face.I'm going to prom and I want to practice my full face. So what are some good tips for doing your first full face?

Make sure foundation is applied correctly... you don't want streaks or splotches. make sure to put it on your neck to. Just blend it! make sure your eyelashes are clumpy. All you can do is practice; practice, practice! and blend?

Make sure to prep your skin before application! Properly cleanse, tone if neccessary, and moistruize really well. Since it's prom you will also want your makeup to last, so apply a good primer. For applying foundation, I think it's easiest to use a buffing brush or Beauty Blender. Blend, blend, and more blending! Make sure there is no harsh lines anywhere. I usually do concealer next. Make sure that is blended into the foundation seamlessly. Make sure to powder your face too if you get oily. If you have drier skin, just powder your t-zone (forehead, nose, chin) and don't skip powdering undereyes. Blush, bronzer, and contour also looks awesome on a full face. They add dimension and a healthy glow. Lastly, invest in a good setting spray. Spray this on your face when your makeup is done to set it all night. Good luck & I hope prom is amazing!

Photo ready means that your foundation concealer and everything else I put on your face won't make a white cast when a picture is taken with a flash

Don't use a foundation with spf if you don't want a white cast.
