Prom night: 30 days of beauty preparation

With just one more month before prom night, your beauty mission is to take care of yourself. Here’s a program to ensure you don’t forget anything.

Pamper your skin

  1. In anticipation of the big night, add a gentle exfoliator to your beauty routine to smooth and purify your complexion. Choose a scrub to polish the surface of the skin, or a peel, which chemically dissolves dead cells. Apply the product once or twice a week, depending on your skin's sensitivity. Be careful! As the exfoliation has an abrasive action, it can alter the hydrolipidic film - the thin layer of water and natural oil that protects the epidermis from aggressions. To allow this protective layer to regenerate, it is essential to use a nourishing facial mask adapted to your skin type after each treatment.

Take on more colour

To get an idea of how your tan will look on prom night, test a few areas of your skin.

  • For a natural-looking tan that lasts five to seven days, try a classic self-tanner in cream, gel or spray form. A self-tanner serum, that you can mix with your daily moisturizer, is also a good option, as it allows you to create a more subtle or more defined effect.
  • For a subtle tan that can be washed away with water, choose a powder that gives the face, neckline and legs a tanned look.

Which makeup should you choose? Make some tests!

Do you need a makeup primer? Which shades of foundation and blush are more suited to your complexion? What is translucent powder used for?

If you have questions like these, don't hesitate to ask the cosmetics team at your Jean Coutu for advice. Our beauty specialists will help you find the right makeup products for the look you want, and can even give you tips to achieve it at home.

 

Where can you get your makeup done for the night? Is it easy to find someone?

If you’re not comfortable doing your own makeup, no worries: set up an appointment with your Jean Coutu beauty specialist to have your makeup done on the day of the prom.

 

Freshen up your hairstyle

  1. See your hairdresser for a cut and to refresh your hair colour. Note: now is not the time to experiment with a new look you might regret!
  2. At home, try out your prom hairstyle and the styling products you’ll be using that night.

2 days before

  1. Pluck your eyebrows to properly define them and frame your look. By doing this in advance, you’ll avoid redness on the big day.
  2. Remove hair with wax, making sure to moisturize your skin when you’re done. If the skin is irritated, apply a soothing aloe-based lotion or argan oil. Avoid sunlight and scrubs for 48 hours so as not to irritate your skin further. If needed, touch-ups can be done with a razor on the day of the prom.
