No matter what age you are when get your braces on, it will surely affect your makeup routine. At first, you may be hesitant to draw attention to your mouth because you are self-conscious about your braces. It can be hard to know what beauty look will work best when you aren’t used to braces, so here are a few tips to keep in mind.
It may seem counter-intuitive to put a bright color on your lips while wearing braces, but it will make your smile look brighter. The right shade of hot pink or true red for your skin tone may take a few tries to find, but it will be worth it when you walk out of the house feeling as confident as ever.
You want to make sure the colors go on smooth and don’t bleed to create a sleek and put together look. Mac Pink Pigeon and NYX Pink Lust are both good pinks to try out while Melted Ruby and Wet n Wild Hot Red are a good starting point for reds.
To add some drama to your beauty look, try a smoky eye. This will draw attention away from your mouth if you’re feeling self conscious and bring it to your eyes instead. Pinterest is the perfect place to find the smoky eye that works for you. There are tutorials for hooded eyes, blue eyes, brown eyes, and more.
For more of an everyday style that enhances your braces in a different way, try out a glossy look. This look on Polyvore is the perfect example of using a gloss to put the focus on your colorful bands.To achieve this look, fill in your entire lip with nude liner to prevent bleeding and keep your color in place all day. Two glosses to try are Kylie Cosmetics So Cute and Urban Decay Liar.
All in all, these tips are just to help you have fun with your makeup routine while you’re experiencing a big change like braces. You’ll have to get comfortable and used to the temporary change to your appearance, and that comes from experimenting with new techniques and colors.
