How to Apply Powder for Prom Makeup

Video Transcript

"Hi! This is Hollie and on behalf of Expert Village we’re going to talk about your final stage of your makeup which is powder. Powder really sets your makeup for the day so it’s about the last step that you’ll want to do when applying your makeup for your special occasion. You want a nice big fluffy brush the softer the better, when you dip in you’re always going to shake off the excess amount, with your eyes closed start at the top of head and you’re just going to brush downward across that forehead and it’s just a full all around the face, make sure you go down along that jaw line, down into the neck and even across your ears where you have a nice blend with your makeup over your ears especially if your hairs going to be pulled back for the night and then go back across the face in a more horizontal pattern. Where we put that blush on in a previous clip you want to make sure that you blend your powder over the top of the blush so the blush blends in like it’s a natural color to your face, you always want to have makeup look like you were kind of born with it and that will set your face for the night."
