If you’re a long-time follower of this blog, you’d know that I did my cousin C’s prom makeup last year. It wasn’t any different this year.
Ms. Dindin was her consultant and MUA of the day.
With the Clinique ladies, there always has to be a wacky pose!
And of course, Dindin taught C this pose.
Last year, I decided on a whimsical fairy theme that’s why she had blue, green pink and purple in her eyes. This year, now that she’s a bit older, I concentrated on the pinks and browns that will complement her dress. I did more mature makeup on her but still keeping with the sweet pinks associated with teenagers.
I used the Naked Palette for this look.
1. Pat SIN all over the lid.
2. On the crease, I applied HUSTLE
3.On the outer v, I applied TOASTED
4. Next, I put SIDECAR on the center of each lid. Just light feathery strokes from the bottom, to the right and up will do.
5. For the highlight, I used VIRGIN
6. Finally, I lightly patted HALF BAKED all over her lids (not including crease) for the golden shimmery effect. This last step was perfect. It made all the colors shine.
C was also with me during the Clinique Mini Makeover Workshop.

When I was a teenager, I didn’t like makeup. I only had face powder and lip balm and I was happy with that. I was a late bloomer when it comes to makeup. It was only when I first started this blog that I became serious in studying, collecting and writing about it.
I like kids to be kids. I like to see them wear appropriate clothes. I cringe whenever I see a 5-year old kid wearing boots and halter/backless tops. What ever happened to sailor dresses and maryjanes and fairy/princess outfits? The same goes for teenagers. I don’t like seeing teenagers (high schoolers) in their school uniform wearing too much gunk on their faces. I think that a face powder, a subtle blush and tinted lip balm is enough for everyday use for a high school student. C is starting to develop a love for makeup so I guess she will be exploring this world more when she goes to college this June.
What about you, what is your take on makeup for teenagers?
You did a good job with her makeup E! =)
ReplyDeleteI think there are people who can pull off wearing makeup and those who can't. ;)
