How To Look Your Best for Special Occasions!

I’m headed to a blogger conference tomorrow and wanted to share My Best Tips & Tricks for How to Look Your Best for Special Occasions!

The goal is to have no surprises so you feel confident and beautiful!

Hair

  • Get grey roots colored no more than 1-2 weeks before the event & make the appointment far enough in advance to get your favorite stylist
  • Bring your regular shampoo/conditioner/styling products & hot styling tools.
  • If you’re having your hair done, arrange for a trial run with the hair stylist so you have time to find another if you don’t like what they’ve done. If you like it, snap pics to refresh their memory.

Injectables:

  • Get Botox/fillers topped up at least a month before the event so any bruising/swelling has time to heal.
  • If new to injectables get them 3-6 months before event & err on the conservative side to be sure you like how it looks.

Makeup

  • If you’re doing your own makeup & are a pro at it, bring your holy grail products & plan makeup to coordinate with outfits
  • If you’re doing your own makeup but you don’t normally wear makeup, start practicing 6 months before event & try on lots of different products until you find some faves
  • If you’re having your makeup done, bring pics of makeup looks you like + pics of your outfit and hairstyle for the event if possible.
  • If you’re wearing false lashes but don’t normally wear them, use individual lash inserts instead of full strips.

Outfits:

  • Try on outfits 1-2 weeks before event with undergarments, shoes, & jewelry so you have time to get anything you need.
  • Snap pics of all outfits and use the pics to pack so you don’t forget anything (you can also send to friends if you’re torn between 2 outfits & need another set of eyes)!

Packing:

  • Take the good stuff! You’ll feel your best if you bring your favorite makeup & styling tools.
  • Pack 2 suitcases: one to carry on & one to check.
  • Medium size checked bag will ensure you’re under the 50 lb weight limit and you can bring all your lotions/potions/hair/body/face products (& lots of shoes).
  • Carry on bag should contain valuables like jewelry & designer bags/shoes, makeup, outfit for 1st night + jammies/undies.

I hope these tips & tricks help you to look and feel your most confident and beautiful at your next special occasion! xo ~Angie
