School Ball Season

from Christian Louboutin Cinderella Collection



It’s nearing the end of May which means school ball season is upon us! If you haven’t already booked your makeup and hair appointments, now’s the time to do it. However, there’s also a few steps you should take care of before the big day.

Skin: Prep your skin by drinking lots of water, eating fresh foods and getting a good amount of exercise every day. Stay away from sugar as much as possible and start the day with a cup of hot water and lemon to cleanse your body.



Tan: If you plan to have a fake tan for your ball, it’s a good idea to test it out beforehand. A tan is relatively inexpensive and well worth it to prevent looking like a patchy orange in your photos (trust me, they last forever).

Hair: Book in a cut (and colour if you regularly get it coloured) 1-2 weeks before the ball to ensure it’s fresh but a little worn in. Also, keep up the conditioning! A great inexpensive product to use is coconut oil. Apply at night and focus on the lengths and the ends to keep them in great condition.



Now that you’re all prepped, let’s look at what you’ll need to have with you on the night to stay looking fresh:

  • Gloss - it’s the easiest way to touch up your lips
  • Hair Pins - just in case
  • Powder - or blotting papers to remove shine
  • Cotton Buds - great for touch ups

Have a great time at your school ball guys!
