Are You Red Carpet Ready?

So you have a major event happening and you want to look like your favorite star on the red carpet. We know that everyone doesn’t have a team of professional waiting to get them glammed out for an event, but who says you can’t be red carpet ready? Have you ever wondered how your favorite star always looks perfect when she hits the red carpet? We have a few fail-proof ways to get you read carpet ready for your next special event.

Face Forward Prep

Celebrity skin care expert, Nichola Joss once said, "There's no point putting on a beautiful gown if the face is not matching the body,” and we couldn’t agree more.  The prep for your special event starts weeks before. Get a star studded glow with our Brightening Duo kit. The combination of our famous Advanced Botanical Brightener and new Moroccan Mineral Mask leaves skin with a smoother texture and an overall radiant glow. 

Perfect Planning

The best way to be prepared is to plan for your big night. It would be horrible if you can’t get an appointment with your favorite stylist or get in with your regular nail technician. Make your appointments well in advance so you won’t be flustered on the day of your event. Take some time to plan your outfit and take pictures for reference points. Inspirational boards with your favorite fashion looks, colors, or hair styles are an awesome way to get an idea of the direction you want to go in.

Tailor Made

Finding the perfect outfit – one you are comfortable in and makes you feel like the belle of the ball – doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Remix what you already have or give new life to an amazing thrift store find with a tailor. Don’t have a tailor? Don’t worry, check out your local cleaners because they often have one in-house (just do a little research first). A new hem line and a little tightening could bring new life to a forgotten treasure. You’ll be the envy of the ball with your one of a kind frock.

Take time to K.I.S.S

A fail-proof way to look your best: Keep It Simple Sweetheart. When it comes to special occasion fashion, less really is more. If your dress is a statement piece all on its own pair it with simple jewelry or none at all. If you have a more classic dress pump it up with bold accessories. Because let’s face it, nobody wants to be upstaged by their own outfit.

Pose for the Camera

You have radiant skin, you’ve made your appointments, tailored your fit, and edited your look, and you’re all ready for your big night, right? Wrong! The best way to see if your fit works is to take a picture in it. See it all together on you. If possible get pictures from all angles so there will be no surprises. This is also a great time to perfect your pose and find your most flattering angles. You may not be walking the red carpet but when a camera appears you’ll be ready to strike a pose.
