Hello you guys, James Charles here and welcome back to my YouTube channel. Prom season is upon us and never fear. I am here to make sure that you don't look ugly for your 2026 prom. If there's anybody that has the credentials to walk you through the perfect prom makeup, it's going to be me. Unfortunately, this is what I looked like at my prom. My prom photos have haunted me for the last 10 plus years of my life. So by the end of today's YouTube video, my goal is to make sure that you don't make the same makeup mistakes that I did. Now, if you'll remember, we actually uploaded a natural prom makeup tutorial last year because all of you guys requested it, but I had no idea it was going to end up going so viral. Thousands of you followed that prom makeup tutorial, uploaded your videos to TikTok showing me your beautiful makeup looks for your special night, which made me so, so, so happy. And all of you guys have requested that we do it again in 2026. Now you'll see we have the painted backdrop behind me. Usually we pop this baby up whenever we have a new product launch. Our lip balms literally just launched last week. Thank you guys so much for all of your love and support. Officially our biggest launch ever. I do not have a new product for you in today's video, but I do have a brand new bundle to help you out during prom season. Last year, I provided the tutorial, but this year I want to provide the product. So I talked to my Painted team and I'm so excited to announce that we have added a Painted prom bundle to our site and TikTok shop where you can get some of our best-selling products for a massive, massive discount. We have combined our basic canvas, 24-shade neutral eyeshadow palette, all the masks that you could ever need for a prom look and shimmers that will literally have your eyeballs twinkling and shimmering in all of your little Canon G7X photos or underneath the disco ball, along with any shade of our Painted blush duos. And yes, I made sure every single shade was back in stock for this bundle, including Snuggle and Ginger Snap. So you get to select whatever color you think is best gonna match your glam or your dress. And this bundle also includes our best-selling Painted accessories, our dual-ended J15 blush brush, so you can apply your Painted blush or cream contours, foundations, whatever you need in your base routine, and our oversized Painted sponge, perfect for foundation, concealer, cream contour, bronzer, and making sure your entire base looks flawless.

So grab your Painted prom bundle because the four products will definitely work no matter what look you create. But if you're looking for a more natural prom glam, check out last year's video. But if you want a full coverage, full glam Painted prom look, keep on watching. If you guys are excited for our 2026 prom makeup tutorial, you guys already know the drill, thumbs up, subscribe down below if you haven't already, click that notification bell so you get notified just like this every time I upload a brand new video. I'm not gonna waste your time, I know I've already yapped long enough. Let's get right into this, starting off with skincare and skin prep. The first thing that I want you guys to grab in your makeup routine today is going to be a toner. We are gonna start with skincare. Usually I just go right into primer or eyeshadow or just starting on the base routine because I'm usually pretty chill about skincare. But if we're going full glam today, I wanna make sure that your beautiful faces are prepped, primed, and hydrated underneath all the makeup so your glam is gonna last all night long. Now, I do wanna do a disclaimer, aside from the painted products, of course, I'm not being sponsored or paid to include anything in today's video. I'm gonna give you guys a lot of recommendations and if anything sounds fun, feel free to try it out for yourself. But what I don't want you to do is go out and buy every single thing that I recommend in today's video, especially not skincare, okay? Do you hear me? Everyone's skin is super, super sensitive, especially when you're in your teenage years. So I don't want you guys to go out and buy a full new skincare routine because God forbid one of the products breaks you out, God forbid you're allergic to something, or God forbid it just doesn't sit well underneath your makeup. I want you to use products that you know work for you, that way there's no surprises that you're not stressed out when everything goes super, super smoothly on your special day. If you do wanna try out anything new, what I would always recommend is get all your products a week early, put on your little dress over the weekend, and try out your makeup look that you're gonna do in advance. That way you can see what you like, what you don't like, you can make any changes, or if you love it, you can just replicate the same exact process on your prom day so that there's no stress and everything goes super, super smoothly. Doing a toner first just to get the skin nice and hydrated, making sure any dirt or excess makeup is completely wiped off. And this is gonna do a little bit of exfoliating in the process to make sure that your base is super smooth. I'm gonna let my skin dry. Then I want you guys to go in with some sort of milky, glazy toner. Okay, I know everybody in their makeup collection has the RODE Glazing Milk. I frickin' love this. I use this almost every single day in my skincare routine. POV has their Drench It, so whatever you wanna use, just add a little bit of hydration into your skin. We're gonna put that right on top. Just gonna do a couple little drops right in my hand. Then I'm just gonna go ahead and apply. Make sure your hands are nice and washed, too. Ya nasties. Wow, honestly, I'm gonna be real with you guys. I don't do toner before my makeup routine nearly enough, but my skin already feels as soft as butter. Slam! Oh, gorgeous, all right. Bring it down the neck as well. I know if you're watching this tutorial and you're going to prom, you're probably a teenager, but it's never too early to start preventing wrinkles, okay? Next, we're gonna do a little bit of moisturizer. I'm gonna use the Charlotte Tilbury Magic Cream. If you do have a couple of different moisturizers in your collection, what I would definitely recommend is finding one that has a little bit of a thicker base. I know a lot of you guys have kind of a lightweight water cream moisturizer. That is fine, too, but something that is a little bit thicker in body is gonna really sit nicely underneath your makeup and provide all day long hydration. See how my skin is already looking like glass? Like, bitch, you can literally see your reflection in my cheek. Okay, that's what we want, especially because later on we're definitely gonna be doing some more full coverage glam. We wanna make sure that they kind of are balanced out. And then last but not least, I'm gonna grab some under eye patches. These are from COSRX, but any under eye patch will work. When you put on a full coverage base routine, especially concealer, there's gonna be a lot of product under your eyes. So you wanna make sure that it goes on super smooth and doesn't get dry or creasy throughout the day. So I'm just gonna grab my little under eye patches, just like this. And then we are going to apply. Right underneath the eyes, just like so. There we go. Okay, now I'm gonna go ahead and zoom you guys in. We're gonna do the eyeshadow while these patches kind of sit on the face and let that skincare really seep into the skin. That way by the time we get to the base routine later on in the video, the hydration has penetrated the skin barrier and we are ready to turn into vanilla cake. Come closer. We're gonna get started on eyeshadow first. I'm just gonna grab any concealer that you might have in your makeup collection. I'm gonna grab my Tarte Shape Tape just because it is my tried and true. She's literally never done me wrong. And what I'm gonna do is place a couple of little dots of this concealer right on my eyelid. Now, if you do have an eyeshadow primer that you absolutely love, you can use that instead. But concealer is gonna work just as well and you probably already have it in your makeup bag. So we're gonna do that instead, okay? Then I'm just gonna take a dense little concealer brush and use this to start patting it in to my eyelids. Bringing it out to my temple as well because there will be some eyeshadow out here and I wanna make sure that everything has a super smooth base. Obviously the brows are not done yet, but we're gonna get to those later on. And see how we now have a super even base for the eyeshadow to be applied on top of? That is what we are looking for. Now, of course, I'm gonna grab our basic canvas palette. As I talked about, this is in our brand new Painted Prom Bundle. This comes with 24 beautiful neutral shades that you guys can really use for any prom makeup look. Now, I know that you guys have requested full glam for today and I'm gonna give that to you, but we will try to keep it somewhat universal. Obviously you can switch up a little pops of color or little shimmers depending on the jewelry that you're wearing or your dress, but I'm not gonna sit here and teach you guys how to do a blue smokey eye for prom, okay? We need to be serious for a second. So we're still gonna keep it neutral inside of this palette, but we'll definitely make sure it's elevated from last year's look. Let's get right into it. Starting off with a big fluffy brush. This is our Painted J14. I'm gonna dip into a little bit of Cookie Dough. It is this cool tone light brown shade right in the top row of the palette. And I'm gonna use this as a really, really, really light wash of color in the crease. Now, Cookie Dough is pretty close to my natural skin tone, so it's not gonna look like I'm doing a lot during this step. You'll see a little bit of dimension added to my lid right here, but that is on purpose. I wanna start getting this concealer set with a little bit of shadow. That way everything blends really beautifully on top of it. See how it just kind of looks like a natural shadow? That's what we want. Then I'm gonna use a smaller crease brush. This is our Painted J11, and I'm gonna dip into Oak. Now, Oak, similar to Cookie Dough, is a cool tone brown, but it's a little bit darker. And we're gonna use this and pop it right into the crease in little windshield and circular motions just to add a little bit more dimension. And I'm just keeping the tip of that brush focused right underneath my actual crease and brow bone. Now, if you don't know where your natural crease is, what I want you guys to do is just look right in your mirror and then just move your head back and forth. Wherever that natural fold forms is right where your crease is. See how you can see? Right there. There's your crease. There it is. Where'd it go? There it is. Okay, so you're just gonna shove your brush right in there, and you're just gonna wiggle it back and forth so the most pigment and darkest part of that shadow is right in that natural fold. But then the wispier brush here is blended out with that lighter shade just like that. Then I'm gonna grab a small little rounded fluffy brush and dip into Treehouse. Now, like Cookie Dough and Oak, it's also a cool tone brown, but you'll notice we're getting progressively darker as we continue to layer up shadows. Everyone has their own personal preferences on how they like to layer eyeshadow. Some people always start off with their darkest shade first, which, weirdly enough, is what I do with colorful makeup looks. But if I'm using neutral colors, I always do light first and work my way down. It's a lot easier to add darker tones than it is to take them away. With the darker shade on this brush, what I'm going to do is start wiggling this right in my outer corner of my crease. So again, that natural crease line where your eyelid naturally folds, but also bringing it into the outer corner. Just wiggling this back and forth right in my outer corner. Then once majority of that pigment that was on that brush tip is already placed on the eyelid, I'm gonna tap off any remaining excess. Then with a really, really light pressure, I'm gonna use that same brush, but not pick up any more shadow. And I'm going to really, really, really lightly just do light circular motions on the outer corner. Using super light pressure, I'm like barely even touching the brush to my actual skin. And I'm just gonna start lightly pulling any excess shadow left over on the brush outwards towards my temple. If you need kind of a guide of where to put the shape, I want you guys to kind of imagine a triangle, right? See how like the bottom of my lid kind of starts a line here? So you wanna imagine that line follows the same angle towards the outer edge of your face. And then the eyebrow is gonna go the opposite direction. So you wanna blend any eyeshadow up within that triangular region. Now, just like we blended that excess eyeshadow outwards, I'm also gonna take any left that's in the crease and bring that inwards. At this point, there should barely be any pigment that's being added, but just a little bit of that darker shade will still help add a dimension to the eyelid. This is how you get really beautiful, seamlessly blended eyeshadow looks without them ever being harsh, patchy, or blotchy. Just like that. See how gorgeous that looks? Now I'm gonna grab that same fluffy brush from before, but I'm gonna dip into a little bit of UV Index. Now UV Index is still a transition brown shade, but it has a little bit more warmth to it. I'm gonna tap off any excess. Then I'm just gonna go right in, in that same exact place where I put that oak shadow. Oh, see how smooth that is? If anything ever gets too harsh, feel free to just grab a fluffy brush as well and go right over those edges to make sure that it's all fully seamless and smooth. There we go. See how smooth that is? Exactly what we're looking for. Now that we have the shadow kind of mapped out, what we're gonna do now is choose what color goes on our eyelid. Now obviously for the sake of today's YouTube tutorial, I can only pick one color, but for you guys, I want you to select based on one, whatever you feel most drawn to, but two, you're gonna make that decision based on the color of your jewelry or the color of your dress. There's a couple of really great options in this palette, and I'm gonna walk you guys through all of them so you can make your best decision. Here's a rough guide. If you are pale, if you have cool undertones in your skin, or if your dress is a cool color, so think black, think cool tone brown, think navy blue, a deep purple, a light lavender, a light sky blue, we have two really great options for you. If you want shimmer, you're going to use Finnegan, this shade in the upper left-hand corner. It is a beautiful cool tone champagne shade that is going to twinkle and sparkle on your lids. It's a very light shadow, kind of similar to ring light in the OG James Charles palette if you have that in your collection, and this is gonna really flatter cool tone. If you want a more matte look, maybe you're not into glitter, maybe you're not into sparkle, again, just like we use on the brow bone, you can also put sugar on your eyelid. This is gonna give you a more 90s sort of look, but it's gonna be really, really beautiful. Now, if you have medium skin with warm undertones, if you're wearing gold jewelry, or if your dress is a warm color, so think red, think maroon, think orange, think yellow, think emerald green, you're gonna wanna use any of the shimmers in the second row. Obviously, we have Gold Coast, this beautiful, vibrant gold. This is gonna look so frickin' stunning on your eyelid. You could also use Movie Night if you want a little bit more of a bronzy look. This one is gonna look so gorgeous, especially if you have a deeper color dress, or if you wanna really get smoky with it. This shade Soul right here in the right-hand column, for a really beautiful brown, deep, smoky eye, this would look super, super beautiful, especially if you have a light eye color, like light blue, hazel, or green. Last but not least, if your dress is pink, please, I beg of you, use the pink shades in this third row. They are going to look absolutely stunning. If you have a cool tone pink, or a baby pink dress, use Cloud Nine. If you have a more peachy pink dress, you should absolutely use Champs, this beautiful color right here, or if you have a deeper skin tone, or have a more kind of red-toned pink dress, you can use Redstone, and it's gonna look absolutely beautiful. Now, obviously, this is your prom day, not mine. If there's a shade in this palette that you feel super, super drawn to, feel free to shove it all over your eyelid, put it on your lips, put it on your cheek, put it wherever you want, it's none of my business, okay? For the sake of today's video, I think I'm going to use a little pink on the lid. It's fun, it's a little pop of color, and if you guys wanted full glam in today's video, that is what I'm going to give you. So, what I'm gonna do is grab my little finger, and I'm gonna dip right into Cloud Nine. This is super beautiful, pale, baby pink shade. Oh my God, it's literally so icy and beautiful, even on the fingertip. And instead of using a brush, I'm just literally gonna go right in and pop this onto my eyelid. God, see how stunning and reflective that is? It literally looks like molten, sparkly metal on my eyeball. Like, are you kidding me? You guys, look at that. You can leave it just like this, but one pro tip that I would love to give you guys, right? Obviously, light baby pink and a dark, cool-toned brown are nowhere near each other on the color spectrum. So, what I love to do is apply another little shade right in between these to help them blend together. So, I'm gonna grab a little bit of Shamp's, the darker medium-toned pink in that palette, and I'm just gonna place this with my finger right over the edge where those two shadows meet. Now, I don't wanna overlap the entire lid because I really want that super bright baby pink in that inner corner, but using this medium-toned pink is gonna help blend them together and create a more seamless transition, just like that. Gorgeous. Then, last but not least, I'm gonna grab that small little fluffy brush that we used in our crease and dip into a little bit more of that medium-toned brown. Oh, and I'm just gonna wiggle this right in between that super dark brown in the outer corner and that pink shimmer to blend them together and make sure there's a perfect transition between these two, just like that. Then, with a little pencil brush, I'm gonna dip into the same shade that we put on the lid. So, in my case, it'd be Cloud 9, and I'm just gonna dip into a tiny little bit of that, and I'm gonna put that right into my inner corner for a beautiful highlighter pop that's gonna bring a lot of attention to your eyes, just like that. And then, I'm gonna take a square flat liner brush. This is our Painted J3, and I am going to lick it, okay? Sorry if it's nasty. I just need this to be wet, and I need the bristles to be as stuck together as humanly possible. Then, what I'm gonna do is dip into a little bit of Treehouse and a little bit of Lava Cake, our super cool-tone darkest brown. And then, what I'm going to do is just start wiggling the very tip of this brush right along my lash line. Now, I don't wanna do a super, super, super thick winged liner because I don't wanna cover up all the beautiful eyeshadow work that we just did, but I do wanna add just a little bit of darkness directly to that lash line because, of course, we are gonna glue on some false lashes, and I wanna make sure that there's a little bit of darkness here for those lashes to be grounded. You need it all to blend together, and the easiest way to do that is by adding a little bit of darkness right along that lash line. Then, with whatever's left on the brush, I'm just gonna use that J3 to drag out a really subtle and skinny wing. Just like that. Again, we don't want anything too crazy. Just gonna pull out that line. Then, using that same brush, I'm just gonna drag it right back in, connecting it to the eyelid for a little bit of dimension. Super easy, right? Now, obviously, our shimmer shades are crazy and glittery, so what I want to do is grab any thin black brush tip liner and use that to just go over the very, very base. Again, we are not drawing on a super thick, full wing. I do just wanna tuck this right up against that lash line just to blend the lashes together and add a little bit of dimension into that eyeliner. There we go. Ooh, look at how gorgeous that looks. Look at that, you guys. Look at that. All right, now we're going to peel off our eye masks. Our under eyes are beautiful and hydrated, and they should be pretty dry at this point. Oh, well, I guess I can keep on this one. I haven't gotten to that eye yet. And what I'm gonna do is just grab any old makeup wipe, and I'm gonna clean up any fallout from those shimmer shades, and I'm gonna just stick my nail right up against that liner, pull my skin on my temple just like this, and I'm gonna trace the bottom of that liner with the tip of my nail inside that makeup wipe to make it nice and sharp. Nice and sharp. Ooh, look at that, perfect. Now, at this point, this eye is pretty much done, so I'm gonna go ahead and do the one off-camera quickly, and I'll come right back when we glue on the lashes. We're back. Both eyes are done. Now it's time for lashes. Now, what I'm going to do first and foremost before I actually put this on my eyeball is take a little makeup wipe. This is the same one that I used to clean up the shadow, and I'm going to go in, and I'm going to clean my eyelash curler. I feel like some of you nasty hoes that never clean your makeup sponges probably never do this either, but if you want your eyelashes to stay gorgeous, healthy, long-growing, and make sure that you don't mess up your eyeshadow look that you just spent 30 minutes on, clean your frickin' lash curler. Just gonna go in. I'm gonna let this dry for a few seconds, and then we go in and we give them a nice little curl. You wanna make sure you have all of your eyelashes in there, especially those pesky ones in the outer corners. Make sure that they are too lifted and gorgeously curled. There we go. Same thing on the other eye. Now, we're going to use mascara. Now, you guys know that I love to tease the painted mascara. It's coming, hopefully, later on this year, but I lost it. Ooh, fuckin' lost it, you guys. I was just on a trip to Lake Tahoe for a fun little family ski trip, and I left it at the cabin, so I can no longer tease my painted mascara until my lab sends me a new sample, and I don't know when that's gonna be. So, you can use whatever mascara is your personal favorite. I like to use the MAC Extended Play. It is a really, really great small wand because we are definitely doing some false lashes in today's makeup look, okay? If you're looking for natural, soft glam, no lashes, just mascara, bitch, you're on the wrong video. Go watch the cute little natural one from last year, okay? That's for you. This is for the full glam girlies, so we already know we're gluing on a fake lash, and we need to make sure that we have at least a little bit of mascara on our natural lashes first so that everything is nice and blended together, and this is a great, great, great mascara that'll make sure your lashes are black, coated, lifted, but not super crazy voluminous or spidery. We are gonna do bottom mascara and bottom lash shadow, but that'll be later on after the base routine, so ignore that for right now. Same thing on the other eye. Again, we're just doing a really light coat here. Then for lashes, I'm gonna use anything that's shaped like this. We just did this gorgeous shadow with the darker outer corner and the wing, so I wanna make sure the pair of lashes that I'm gonna use match that shape. I love a lash with a tiny, short little inner corner, but then longer wispies that are kind of winged out on the outer edge. It's gonna be super, super flattering on anybody's eye shape to really snatch and pull your face. Just gonna grab a little bit of lash glue. My personal favorite is the Duo Brush-On Adhesive, and I'm just gonna paint it right on that lash band. That glue goes on neon blue, but you're gonna let it dry for a couple of seconds before you actually put it onto your eyelid. That way, it's a little bit stickier and you don't have to do so much adjusting. Now, if you wear lashes all the time, no worries, just pop them on. If you are new to lashes or if this is your first time wearing lashes, no problem. Prom is a perfect first occasion to wear lashes, but it is not the time to try them out for the first time. If you are going to be wearing lashes, if you are going to be gluing them on yourself, do not! Under any circumstances, wait until your actual prom day to try them out, okay? Buy two pairs if you need to. Buy or glue a week in advance and practice, because I'm gonna keep it real, this ---- is not easy. Even as a beauty guru who has been doing this for 10 years, sometimes I still struggle with gluing on my lashes. Practice makes perfect. The more you do it, the easier it does get. But please do not leave your actual prom day to be the first time that you try this out. Grab a tweezer or a lash holder just like this and grab a small compact with a mirror, okay? If you buy the Painted Prom Bundle, use your painted blush. I'm going to hold this blush component below my face, right? So I'm looking downward, but my eyes are still open. That way, you still have access to your whole eyelid and you can see what you're doing. So I'm holding the mirror below my eye and I have the lash pinch with my tweezer and I'm gonna start up and I'm going to drop them down onto my lash line. That way, my curled eyelashes don't get in the way and you can easily access and get those lashes as close to your lash line as humanly possible. It should go on nice and easy and then you can just use those tweezers to make sure that the lash band is fully connected to your lash line. And because we let that glue sit for a couple of seconds, it should stick right away instead of having to adjust it over and over and over again. See how easy that just glued right on there? So you're gonna take your makeup wipe and clean off your tweezer or your lash holder. Sometimes there'll be excess mascara that is sticky or lash glue and the worst thing you can do is go in to pinch your eyelashes together and then all of a sudden, you accidentally glue your ******* tweezers to your eyeball. I've done it before, not fun because it's gonna rip the eyelash right back off. So once that is fully clean, you're gonna go in and very, very, very carefully, again, holding this mirror below, you are going to pinch together the newly glued on false lash with your natural lashes. Once they are pinched together and because of that black liner that we put on earlier, it's going to look like these lashes are actually growing out of your lash line. Then I love to just take my little finger and press the outer corners upward to make sure that they're nice and lifted and then last but very much not least, you don't have to do this, I personally like to take a little bit more of that mascara, the tiniest bit. I'm gonna really wipe off any excess on the top of that mascara tube. Then I'm just going to literally go in and tickle the outer couple of spiky lashes with the tip of that mascara wand just to get them coated in that black and to blend together any of those natural lashes on the outer corner. This is going to not only emphasize those little spikes on the end, but it's also gonna make your eyes look super, super lifted and pulled. Ooh, like I'm sorry. I'm sorry, look at that. And once that's all glued on there, the very last step that I like to do is grab that black ink liner one last and final time. Gonna take the cap off and again, looking down into my mirror, I'm just gonna use the very, very, very tip of this liner to paint over that lash band. That way, if this is your second or third time using the eyelash and there's any excess eyeshadow on it, maybe some of the eyeshadow from the twinkle shades might have fallen onto the lash band or if any of the glue isn't fully dry, this will fully help blend it all together and make it look like these false lashes are literally growing directly out of your lash line. Ah, it's so beautiful. That is one glued on. Let's do the other one quickly. And look at those beautiful prom eyes. I feel like this is the perfect level of full-on glam without it looking like you're going to prom in drag. If you want to, be my guest. But I feel like this is a great balance. At this point, it's time to zoom ourselves out and let's get started on this base routine. Time for our face and our perfect smooth base. I got a lot of questions from you guys asking, how do we make my skin look literally perfect? Again, last year's tutorial was all about keeping it a little bit natural. Today, we are going full-on glam, okay? So what we are going to start off with is a pore-filling primer. This is from Milani. It is Conceal and Perfect Blur Out Smoothing Primer. Use whatever primer works for you. For me personally, I have pretty big pores on my cheeks and in my nose. I'm just gonna grab a good chunk of this primer on my finger and I'm gonna really start pushing it in to any places that have a little bit more pores and texture than the rest of my skin. This is kind of like a putty consistency and the goal is to really fill in any of those excess pores so we get a super smooth base with anything that goes over top. Once that primer has all sat in place and dried a little bit, it is time to either spot conceal or color correct. Now, I don't know what has happened, but by some miracle, knock on wood, my skin is looking really clear right now, which is great for me. I have a cute little photo shoot tomorrow. Let's say a prayer and I will cross my fingers for you that your skin is equally as clear on your special occasion or prom day. But in the event of a pimple or a breakout or a blemish, it happens, right? I'm on camera all the time. My skin is never looking perfect. There are a couple of things that you can do to correct it. If you have any darkness underneath your eyes, you're gonna use a little bit of a peach color corrector. My favorite ones are definitely from Huda Beauty. They have a ton of different shades you can choose from depending on how deep your skin tone is. I personally use Pink Pomelo and you can just use a little bit of this color corrector in any areas that have a little bit of darkness. So if you have dark circles underneath your eyes or any sort of discoloration on your eyelids or around your mouth, this is gonna be the step where you put on just a little bit of product. I'll put a little bit on my mustache area. I just had a laser appointment last week, but it's growing back. I hate that, so I wanna make sure that I am fully color corrected, just like that. Then with a small little concealer brush, I'm just gonna lightly tap over this color corrector. I do not wanna blend it all the way out. Obviously, the whole point of color corrector is to target color correct specific areas. So don't go in and start blending this all over your face. Okay, you don't want it. You wanna keep it concentrated where you need the most coverage. See how just tapping over this literally erases any of that darkness? Now my under eye just looks perfectly flat. Exactly what we want. Once you are color corrected, if you have any blemishes that you wanna cover up, like a red pimple that just will not go away, okay, don't fear. I promise we're gonna take care of it. It happens to everybody. My favorite concealer on planet Earth to use is the NARS Soft Matte Concealer. Okay, this is like 30 bucks. I know it's a lot of money for this tiny little jar. It sounds like a scam, but I promise you, this is worth every goddamn penny, okay? I've had this for like a year now. I'm not even close to going through all of it. This is literally the best concealer in the world because it is so, so self-full coverage, but it never looks cakey or nasty on your skin. I have a little bit of redness down here. I'm just gonna go in and tap right over top of it. Literally, God. This is literally the perfect product to cover up any sort of redness, any pimples, any blemishes underneath your foundation so it'll truly be undetectable. And it is kind of like self-setting as well, so you don't need to do a whole routine. You literally just put it on, let it dry for a couple minutes, and you are good to go. I know that was a lot of steps to prep the face, but I promise you, it's going to be worth it when you see how beautiful this foundation looks when it's all together. Now it is finally time to cover all this ---- up. For foundation today, I would like to use the House Labs Triclone, whatever the ****, Skin Tech Foundation. This is such a beautiful, gorgeous product. It is definitely medium to full coverage, but still looks like your skin. Okay, obviously this is full glam today, but I will not let you guys walk into prom looking like nasty textured vanilla cake mess, no matter how much I love vanilla cake. And I promise with all the color correction and the prep work that we've done, this is gonna be the perfect amount of coverage. Now obviously, if you have a perfect foundation that you use every single day, it is your absolute favorite, use it. Be my guest. Just giving you guys the best recommendations, okay? I'm gonna squirt a little bit out onto my little mixing palette here. I do fear that this color is a little bit more tan than me, but I know a lot of you guys love getting a cute little spray tan or a self-tanner on your skin before prom day. So we're just gonna pretend like the rest of my body matches, okay? I'm gonna go in with my Painted Oversized Sponge. This is included in your Painted Prom bundle. What you're gonna do is take this out of the box and you're gonna bring it to the sink. Get it nice and soaking wet, but then you wanna wring it out as hard as you possibly can. You do not want any water left in the sponge. See if I squeeze like this, nothing comes out. It feels almost dry, but when you add water to this, it doubles in size. That way you get the softest and fastest application. I'm gonna go in with the butt end of the Painted Sponge and dip right into the foundation on my mixing palette. And I'm gonna kind of bounce it around as well. I want the foundation fully distributed into the butt end of the sponge, just like that. Not concentrated in one area because I wanna make sure that when I'm applying this, it's giving even coverage all throughout. Then what I'm just gonna do is start lightly tapping. Oh my God, this is way too ******* dark for me. James! Again, we're pretending like I have a spray tan, okay? You know what? Actually, we're just gonna do my neck first. So it looks like it's a perfect match, okay? I don't wanna hear any of you bitches leaving me a nasty comment. Now we go in with the butt end of the sponge and we tap, tap, tap in. Make sure it's nice and distributed and we start going right in on the skin. Oh my God, perfect match. I'm so talented, look at that. We're just gonna go in. We're gonna tap lightly over top of those color crafted areas, that concealer, and see how this foundation is so beautiful, but it's still a little bit radiant. It looks like your skin, but perfect. Like full on airbrushed. We'll do this cheek as well. Right over the chin, right over those pores, and I'm not gonna go all the way up to that inner corner or the corners of my eyes, but I am gonna do a little bit on my nose. With any excess, I'm just gonna put it right onto my forehead. I always like to save my forehead for last because it is always the place on me personally that sweats first whenever I'm hot. Obviously, depending on where you are located, if you guys have prom in Florida or California, it has literally been 94 degrees here in LA the last couple of weeks where I personally live, and obviously it's just gonna keep getting even hotter as the summer progresses, so I don't want you guys to sweat off your makeup. Even if you're in a slightly colder climate, sometimes, I don't know where your prom is being held, if it's at your high school gymnasium, I don't know how good the AC is in there. It might get hot with everyone dancing around and having a great time, so regardless, you wanna make sure your makeup is gonna last all night long, and the more face makeup you have on, the greater chance you have of cracking, creasing, or melting, so I like to keep the forehead a little bit lighter in coverage to prevent that. Now, when you're blending your foundation, don't forget your ears, okay? Ears also get really red when it gets hot, so you wanna make sure that those are fully covered, and you also wanna make sure you get right behind your ears at your jawline because this is also an area that some people miss when they're doing their foundation, and it is super, super obvious if you don't have a perfect color match, so just blend some foundation back there, and nobody's going to ever know. Now, you might think the next step would be concealer, but instead, I'm going to do a little bit of contour first. The reason I like to do contour is sometimes you can get a little bit too crazy with chiseling out your face, so I like to kind of go too far first and then fix it with a little bit of concealer afterwards. It'll all make sense, just trust the process, okay? Now, for contour today, I want you to grab a cream contour stick. Any contour stick will work. I'm sure a lot of you guys have one in your makeup collection. I'm gonna use the Lunar Beauty Bronzing and Sculpting Stick in the shade Medium Sky. There's the Fenty Beauty contour sticks. House Labs has some really great contour sticks as well. Anything that can add a little bit of dimension into your skin, and then what we're going to do for our cheekbones, okay? We're gonna draw a small line from the upper corner of our ear, right over here, down our cheekbone, just like that. Okay, now, if you don't know where your cheekbone is, feel it. I want you to literally take your finger and feel the side of your face, okay? It's not called a cheekbone. For funsies, there is an actual bone there, so you will feel where the bone is, and you're gonna place that contour line right above it, so just right above that cheekbone, just like that. Same thing on the other side, corner of the ear, right above that cheekbone. Then I'm going to take the butt end of my sponge that has a little bit of that foundation on it. I'm gonna give it a little squeeze. Then I'm gonna start blending this contour upwards, okay? You just put that at the base of your cheekbones, so the last thing you wanna do is start blending it downwards. That's gonna create a nasty-looking, like Lord Voldemort, weird shadow on your face. It's gonna look like a beard, okay? So we're gonna blend this upwards, and that's basically going to give the illusion of lifted, higher cheekbones, and see how this paint and sponge literally blends it out in like seconds? Oh, so good, okay? You wanna make sure you blend it out in your hairline as well, just like that, and then same thing on the other side. Blend, blend, blend, lifting it upwards as you go. Oh, look at that cheekbone, do you see that? Oh, so good, okay? Now, we put a little bit on our jawline. Right there, right there, back there, and back there. Gonna blend that right out, and it's gonna create the illusion of a super snatched jaw. Now, we're gonna do a little bit on the forehead as well. Obviously, if you have a larger forehead like me, you can apply a little bit more. I'm not being mean, we're just being honest, okay? Us five heads have to stick together. I need a little bit more help than some of the other girlies that have a gorgeous, tiny little rounded forehead, so I'm just gonna do a little bit in the outer corners, just like this, and then once again, I will blend it in using the butt end of my painted sponge, just to add a little bit of dimension and make sure everything is fully evened out, just like so. Last but not least, we will do the nose contour. Now, I'm gonna go ahead and zoom you guys in a little bit so we can really get into the details of the nose contour. I'm gonna grab a small, angled, fluffy brush, just like this, and I'm gonna dip into that same contour sculpting stick, and what I'm going to do is paint on some lines on my nose, okay? Now, when it comes to nose contouring, see how when I look straight at the camera, you can see the natural shadows of my nose. It's here, and it's right here. That is the anatomy that I was born with. I do not have a rhinoplasty, I'm just very good at faking one using nose contour. What you don't wanna do is draw on those nose contour lines on your actual nose anatomy. That's just gonna make your nose look wider. What we wanna do is fake it so it looks like you have a super tiny nose bridge. So instead of putting this brush all the way out here, what I'm going to do is basically hold this on the top of my nose, just like this, and draw it directly downwards. See how I completely ignored my actual nose anatomy, which is out here, and it's on the top of my nose instead? I'm gonna do the same thing on the other side, on the top of my nose. And see how I left this really thin negative space right in the middle of my natural skin color? That is what we are basically tricking the eye into thinking is our real nose bridge. You can pay a plastic surgeon a lot of money for this ----, or you could just follow the James Charles tutorial, okay? Then, with whatever's left on the brush, you are not gonna leave it here. Flip the brush upside down, and we're gonna drag a little bit more of that contour up and rounded into the front of our eyebrow like that. It looks a little crazy, but this looks crazier, right? This is all our nose, including this area up here, so you wanna make sure that contour is seamless and is actually connected to your real bone anatomy, just like that. See? Perfect, okay? There's nothing left on this brush, right? So what we're just gonna do is use this and really lightly tap over that lower edge of the line that we drew to make sure it's nice and soft and blended out. We don't want it to look harsh, but we do wanna keep that pigment there, otherwise we lose the contouring work we just did, right? So just tap, tap, tapping right over that edge to softly blend it out. And see, all of a sudden, my fat nose is looking so tiny! So frickin' tiny, okay? Now, it's concealer time. I'm gonna grab the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Airbrush Concealer. I've been really, really enjoying this recently. I am in the shade Too Fair, for anybody who is a shade twin to me. I'm gonna grab a little bit out of the tube. I'm gonna wipe off any excess, because we don't need a ton. And what I'm going to do is place this right in my inner corner. Just gonna do a little triangle, just like so. And then I'm gonna put a little bit in this outer corner, too, right up against the bottom of that liner. With the pointy end of my painted sponge, I'm gonna start going in, and I'm going to tap, tap, tap this concealer. Now, I'm gonna focus on the outer edges of that kind of little blob that we put on there first, because I wanna keep the most coverage in this inner corner, right? So I'm gonna tap, tap, tap, and I'm gonna bring up any excess concealer right up to my lash line. Now, keep in mind, we didn't put any actual foundation up here, so it's gonna keep it nice and smooth when there's only one layer of product. Then, when I get to this outer corner, I'm gonna keep the pigment up against that line, and I'm just gonna blend out this lower edge of that concealer. That way, it's gonna trick the eye into thinking that your face is super, super lifted and snatched. Like, oh, oh! You guys asked for full glam, you're getting full glam. Then, with any excess left on the tip of that sponge, I'm gonna go in, and I'm gonna put this concealer onto the edge of my nose, going right up against that contour line that we put on earlier. This is gonna, again, trick the eye into thinking that you have a really, really, really tiny nose bridge. I mean, come on. Look at the difference! Look at the difference, Diva. Ooh, so good, okay? Now, we're gonna do the same thing on the other side, right up against that nose contour line into the inner corner. Then, any excess concealer is gonna be brought right underneath the eye. Ooh. Ah! I mean, hello? Like, I can barely ******* breathe. I'm so pretty, and you will be, too, if you follow this prom tutorial. Now, with a little bit more of that concealer, we're just gonna do a tiny little dot right on the center of the chin and right in the center of the forehead, just to bring a little bit of brightness back to the face. Nothing too crazy. Blending that in. And then, any excess concealer, I'm just gonna put right underneath that contour, just like that. Look at how *******, ooh, so good. Same thing on this side. Now, our base is looking perfect. It's time for blush, which is, again, part of our Painted Prom bundle. When you do the bundle, obviously, the J15, the sponge, and the palette, you get what you get. But part of this bundle means you get to select your favorite shade of painted blush. I'm gonna use Pink Drink and a little bit of Snuggle, which is finally back in stock, our super light baby pink shade that you guys have all been obsessed with. But obviously, again, depending on your jewelry, the color of your dress, or your skin tone and undertone, buy whatever blush shade you think is gonna look most flattering on you. I'm gonna grab my J15 dual-ended blush brush. There are two ends to this for a reason. This fat end up here is for the cream formula, and the fluffy end down here is for the powder. I'm gonna dip, dip, dip right into this cream formula first. Warning, if this is your first time with a painted blush, welcome to the family. These are extremely pigmented. So before you go right into your cheek and turn your entire face pink, do a couple little taps of that formula off onto your hand. That way, it doesn't overload. You can always add more. It's a lot harder to take it away. Just gonna do a cute little smile, and you're gonna focus this blush right on the apple of your cheek, right in between that bronzer and that concealer. You gotta kind of think of your blush as like a transition shade. And I'm just gonna lightly tap all around, and this brush, as you can see, literally does the work for you of blending out that blush. Oh, look at that. So beautiful, okay? Same thing again. Tap, tap, tap. And then right in, just right in between that contour and that concealer for a beautiful transition and a little pop of pink. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. And then, if you really wanna take it there, I frickin' love using Snuggle as a further transition shade between my blush and the concealer. Okay, think of like Neapolitan ice cream, right? So, I'm gonna grab my Snuggle, and I'm gonna grab another J14, a really small, fluffy brush, and I'm gonna tap into that cream formula once again. And I'm just gonna put this right underneath my eye, blending together the pink drink blush and my under-eye concealer. This is gonna give you that super lifted baby pink cheek. Oh my God, like, I'm sorry. Look at how gorgeous that is. Right here, right under the outer corner of my eye. It just looks so beautiful and really helps kind of meld everything together for that stunning pink under-eye. It is time for powder. Let's finally set this face in place, okay? Best powder on planet Earth has to be Huda Beauty. I don't know what Miss Huda put in this fuckin' formula, but it really is the best of the best. Personally, I love, love, love, love, love, love the Cherry Blossom Cake, especially if you're going for that super, super glam look. That very slight pink tint really just takes the glam to the next level and helps blend together that pink blush if that is the color that you happen to choose. They have plenty of other colors that you can use as well. If you have a lighter skin tone, they have Sugar Cookie, which is like the kind of white, translucent one. They also have plenty of shades for deeper skin tones too. If there's any product, aside from the Painted Prom bottle that I think you need to get, it really would be this. It's that good. I'm going to grab a powder puff, just like this, okay? We're going to tap into that powder, but you are not going to go right into your face. You are just going to push that powder puff into your skin. Of course, a little bit of the powder will leave, but what this is basically doing is making sure that the powder is evenly distributed throughout that puff. So when you go in and apply it to your under eye, it is a perfect, smooth, even coverage all throughout that gives you the exact amount of powder that you actually need to set it in place. I'm just going to start by tucking this right up into my lower lash line, because that is where I need the most amount of powder. And then any excess that is left on that puff, I'm just going to start tapping all over my face. Now, obviously this is our full glam tutorial. So if you've made it this far, I'm assuming you're not afraid of makeup, okay? We both know you need to set your face with powder. I had to do a whole caveat in last year's video because I know a lot of girlies out there don't like to use setting powder. If you are wearing this much makeup, you need it, okay? So we're just going to make sure that everything is super, super locked in place, just like that. And already off the bat, look at how smooth and airbrushed this side of my face looks in comparison to this one. That literally looks like I have a ******* face tuned in real life filter. So good. Now, before you set your forehead or your under eyes, if there's any light creases, you just want to go in with the butt end of that sponge, tapping over them, because the last thing you want to do is lock a crease in place, okay? So smooth it out, then go in with your setting powder and set it while it's smooth for the best amount of coverage. Then last but not least, set your neck in place, okay? If you had to blend your foundation all the way down your neck, which I hope that most of you will to make sure that it really matches your entire body, you need to lock this in place too. Especially if you're living in a hot environment, if it's going to be hot, if you're dancing, make sure your neck is also locked in with powder, okay? The worst thing you could do is your face is fully matte, gorgeous, locked in place, but then all of a sudden your neck starts ******* melting all over your dress, okay? Get a little bit more setting powder, pat it in. Then with a giant fluffy brush, we're going to grab just a tiny little bit more powder. Okay, trust the process. Then I'm going to tap off any excess. You don't want anything too crazy. Then I'm just going to use this to brush off any excess powder that is left on my face. We want to make sure this is fully locked in and fully smooth, but we don't want too much. Just enough so the foundation and base routine that we just worked tirelessly on don't move around. Gorgeous, okay? We're almost there, we're on the home stretch, okay? Now that we've set our face in place with powder, obviously we have lost a little bit of that dimension. So what I'm going to do is crack open my basic canvas one more time. Luckily, there are a lot of really great shades in here that you could also use as contour, bronzer, and blush. So I'm going to grab a fluffy brush and a little bit of cookie dough and UV index just to briefly go over some of those contour and bronzing areas to make sure that they are still fully defined. Just a little bit at the cheekbones. Ooh, like that, perfect. Very subtle, very subtle. Little bit underneath the jaw. Of course the forehead as well. And then last but not least, a little bit on that nose contour as well to make sure it is still fully chiseled out and rhinoplasty-ed. Then I'm going to grab just a little bit of my favorite powder foundation. This one is MAC Studio Fix, literally the best of the best on the market. If you don't have this in your makeup collection, don't go buy it, okay? I wish that I could recommend this to you. They have completely changed the formula and the new one ******* sucks. They removed the talc, which is literally why this is such a good, beautiful airbrush setting powder. If you do have this, great. If you don't, I don't know what to recommend you instead, honestly. This is literally the best one ever. Oh, oh, I know a lot of you guys have the Charlotte Tilbury under eye powder. That's a really good one. We're just going to do a couple of little circles right inside that powder. Tap off any excess. And I'm just going to use this right underneath the eyes in that inner corner to brighten them up and right up against that nose contour line to add a little bit more coverage and a little bit more snatch. Ooh. I will also say be careful, okay? Because this is the one step that's going to take it from looking like glam makeup to full-on drag. And I am guilty of doing that. I'm going to fix that. I'm sorry. You asked for full glam. I'm giving you what you asked for. A little bit on the center of the forehead as well. And the chin. Bitch, I am ******* hated. Like, hello? Hello? Ooh. Okay. Now I'm going to grab my blush again. Okay, the other end of the J15. So the fluffy, powdery end. We're going to dip right in. A couple of little dips. Tap off the excess. And we're just going to put this again right on that same cheekbone area just to reinforce the colors. So beautiful. A little bit on this side as well. Then a little bit of snuggle just on the very, very top again to blend everything together. Oh my God. Like, I'm so sorry. Ugh! Ooh. Now we're going to do a little bit of highlighter. Okay? You guys know we're working on some painted highlighters. They're going to be gorgeous. They're going to be stunning. Launching, hopefully, later on this year. Who ******* knows? What I do know is I want a little bit of glow. Nothing too crazy. But I'm just going to grab a little fluffy brush and I'm going to dip into a pale champagne-y pink shade just like this. House Louds makes great highlighters. Oh, Rare Beauty makes great highlighters. I'm just going to put this right on the very top of my cheekbone. I don't want a ton. Okay? Just right here. Just a little bit. See how that creates a beautiful glow? Same thing on the other side. Just a little glow. Okay? Then my favorite hack. Now I know that you guys don't have this in your collections yet, but if you happen to have a highlighter that is like this color, it really looks like a blush. It's like a shimmery blush. Okay? I love dipping a big fluffy brush into a shade like this and using it as a transition between that champagne-colored highlighter and the pink blush. This is almost like a transition shade between them to help blend and meld it all together because this is going to add a bit more radiance to your cheek without it looking like full-on glitter. It just adds like a little bit of reflection and radiance. It looks so healthy. Then, last but not least, I'm just going to grab a little bit more of that same shade, kind of mixing them together for a little highlighter cocktail. Tap off any excess, and I'll put a little bit right above my brow bone for just a little glow on both sides, a little bit on the chin, and then down the nose. It's so beautiful. So freaking stunning. Okay? There you go. Now, we'll dip back into the basic canvas. I'm just going to grab a little bit of Finnegan, and I'm going to use this to highlight the center of my nose bridge. You're going to focus this right in that negative space between the two contour lines to, again, fool the eye into thinking that you have a rhinoplasty. Ooh! So creamy! Right at the tip of the nose, just like that. Now, let's finish up that lower lash line shadow. I'm going to grab a little bit of Cloud 9 and Finnegan, and I'm just going to wrap this right around that inner corner of my eyeball to make it nice and bright. I love adding just a little tiny bit of shimmer right underneath that inner corner of the eye because it really does bring other people's eyes directly to yours. With the same fluffy brushes from before, I'm going to grab a little bit of Oak, tucking this right up against that lower lash line. We're going to keep it very soft, not going too crazy. We're going to leave the inner corner of the eye blank. You're only going to put the shadow from like here to here. Then, with that same liner brush, I'm going to use a little bit of Treehouse, and I'm going to tuck this right up against that lash line. And in the process, I'm going to connect it to the bottom of that winged liner, and that's going to really help everything be super cohesive. Look at that. There we go. See, very, very subtle, but just kind of ties everything together. Now, I do want to add a pencil into my waterline. Now, here you can choose. I got a lot of questions from you guys. How do I make my small eyes look bigger? Or how do I make my big eyes look smaller? Two very easy answers. If you want small eyes to look bigger, line your waterline using a white or a nude eyeliner pencil. If you want big eyes to look smaller and super sultry and sexy, you can use a black or brown liner. Personally, I would recommend a brown, I think a black liner for prom. Little overboard. If that's your vibe, no problem. I would not recommend. White, nude, brown. Pick one of the three. For my look, I always like my eyes to look a little bit bigger, so I went with white. I just used the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk, and you guys can see, before, after. Huge difference. Literally. Finally, just a tiny little bit of mascara right on those lower lashes. We are so close to being done. Okay, I'm gonna zoom you guys back in one last time. We're gonna do the eyebrows. Now, normally, you guys know, I always do my eyebrows kind of right before my eyeshadow, but I've noticed when I save the eyebrows for a little bit later on, it helps put some guardrails around them so they don't get too big or too thick, because when you already have the eyeshadow on, it balances everything out and makes you realize that you don't need a really thick, bushy brow. I'm gonna use the new Anastasia Beverly Hills Archer Brow Super Slim Pencil. Gonna gel them in place. I'm gonna use a little bit of my favorite brow gel. This one is from Painted, launching later on this year. God, it feels so good to be able to say that about so many products. This brow gel is like ******* glue. It's so good. You guys are gonna be obsessed with it. Just brushing them through to lay the hairs exactly where I want them. I'll let it dry for a couple of seconds. While those are drying, I'm gonna take a little makeup wipe, and I'm just gonna clean off my lips, just because I'm gonna have to do it eventually, so might as well do it now to save some time. And now we get to do the eyebrows, okay? I'm just gonna start off by filling in a little bit of the tails, just extending them out a little bit to balance the eyeshadow, and then just tracing the very bottom line of that brow just to give it a little bit of dimension and separate it from the eyeshadow look. But honestly, that's kind of all I really need. Obviously, you guys can see I have very bushy eyebrows, so I don't need a lot. If you do need to fill in your brows, feel free to continue doing so. But personally, I think that I'm gonna stop there because I want the brows, again, to be a little bit more natural looking so they're not so big and bulky. The look is already glam. We don't need to convince anybody, right? I mean, gorgeous, right? Like the brow is, oh, this one needs a little bit of work. I lied. We're so close. Last step. Thank God. Lips. Let's finish this off with a bang. Starting off, lip liner, okay? Always need a little lip liner. I'm gonna grab just a cute little kind of toasty brown shade and I'm just gonna go ahead and line my lips, okay? So what we're gonna do, we're gonna overline a little bit in the center of the Cupid's bow. But then I'm gonna connect it down to my actual lip corner. Okay, like that. Same thing on the lower lip. Overlying just in the center, then connecting it up to the actual real corners of the lip. You can use your finger to smudge it out. Beautiful, okay? Just like that. Then I'm just going to carefully clean up the edges of that lip liner with a little bit of concealer on a flat brush. Then for the very center of my lip, ah, I present to you vanilla batter cream. Ha ha! Our painted lip balms just launched last week. Thank you guys again so much for all of your love and support. I cannot believe how many of you came onto the site to shop and have added these to your collection. Your order should be arriving to your house within the next couple of days and I literally cannot wait to see what you guys think of the painted lip balm formulas. Please, if you do any sort of unboxing or reviews, tag us at Painted so we can see, repost, comment, like, share your beautiful faces and your gorgeous hydrated lips. For me today, I'm going to use vanilla batter cream lip balm because it is the perfect shade of slight baby pink that I think is going to flatter this makeup look absolutely stunningly. The reason I'm choosing a lip balm as well instead of a traditional bullet lipstick is because at a lot of proms you might be eating or of course you'll be yapping and talking all night long so doing a regular lipstick could get kind of crusty and nasty whereas a lip balm you could easily touch up or reapply all throughout the night and never have to worry about it. So, perfect product for your prom makeup routine. Oh, and it tastes absolutely amazing. I don't know if there's a dessert table at your prom but with this lip balm on, it tastes like you're eating vanilla cupcakes all night long. Last but certainly not least, we're going to do two setting sprays today, both from one size. Okay, starting off powder melt setting spray. I love this ----. It is a really, really, really beautiful setting spray because we have done full coverage glam today. A lot of powder, a lot of products, a lot of layers. This setting spray not only locks your face in place but it really helps to melt everything together for a little tiny bit of that natural kind of radiance. Okay, it's still going to be full coverage obviously but it'll add just a little bit of shine back to your skin, which we love. Going to let it dry. This looks like I have ******* like a Facetune filter on. You know what I want to do as well? I just thought about this. Sorry, I'm going to take a little bit more pink drink on a finger. Yeah, yeah, perfect. Pinkier, still tastes like vanilla buttercream. There we go. Okay, last but not least, I'm going to use the Until Dawn setting spray. This really is one of the best setting sprays on the market. This is going to lock your ---- in place all night long. If you're dancing, if you're sweating, if you're eating, if it's hot outside, this is going to be a great setting spray to actually keep your prom glam on no matter what happens. Hold your breath, close your eyes. That is my 2026 How to Not Look Ugly at Prom Full Glam Edition all complete. I know this has been a long video so I'm going to keep this outro short. I really, really hope you guys enjoyed the super in-depth glam prom makeup tutorial. Again, we did this last year. It went so viral. So if you decide to follow this tutorial or recreate it for your prom day, especially if you have the Painted Prom Bundle, please make sure you tag me and at Painted because I would love to see your beautiful, beautiful faces. Please remember, I know this feels so serious and you want it to be perfect and I'm hoping and praying for you that it will be, but there'll be many other special events in the future. Don't put too much pressure on yourself to have the perfect night. Just have fun and really, really enjoy it while it lasts because you only get one. On that note, you guys, I love you so much. Thank you for watching today's video. Please give it a big thumbs up if you enjoyed or if you want more in-depth makeup tutorials like this. Leave me a comment and let me know what your prom is or how your prom went if you've already had yours. Also, if you have not already, make sure to subscribe. A lot of you guys are coming back every single Friday at 12 p.m. PST but are not actually subscribed. Come join the family. It is completely free. If you're watching on your TV, you can swipe up with your remote and join the family that way and also click that bell icon so you get notified just like this every time I upload a brand new video. Our TikTok is at painted or Instagram and website where you can shop the brand new Painted Prom Bundle is painted.co. Thank you so much for watching today's video and I will see you in the next one. Goodbye.
