a mom’s advice:
a dad’s advice:
Let your girls know
they are your treasure and
that there is no dress that can
make them any more beautiful
than they already are.
They are enough.
-Ruthie Carlson,
I invite my daughter’s date to
breakfast to get to know them and
let them know my expectations
(mainly no drinking!). If they
had anything in mind, this would
generally stop it.

DETAILS
Use a face primer and lid primer
before applying makeup. Put a
mirrored powder compact and
lipstick/gloss in a clutch to
freshen up throughout the night.
Help your kids plan and be ready for their big night. We asked
the experts at L’Esprit Salon Da’ Spa in Montgomery for tips,
tricks and the timing for skincare services.
skincare treatments
A Teen Facial will help clear any skin problems
and give glowing skin for the night of the
dance. Plan ahead! Book facials two weeks
prior to the big day. Schedule Brow Waxing at
least one week prior and Airbrush tans should
be scheduled two days before.
The shape of the face determines whether
or not you should wear your hair up or down.
For square and oblong faces: wear your
hair half way up or down with loose curls.
For oval and heart shaped faces: wear
your hair up.
If you are wearing your hair down, do
loose wavy curls or curls that look natural.
If you are wearing your hair up, wear it
loosely pulled back with soft curls, or even
in a low elegant bun.

makeup tips
Make sure to keep your makeup balanced. The
heavier the eye makeup, the lighter you should go
on your blush.
Choose your lip color wisely. If you use a
smokey eye, choose a less vibrant lip color. This
will allow your eyes to stand out more.
Use a bronzer to contour the shape of your face;
follow with a shimmer dust for a more glamorous
appeal.
