A Big Day

[Intrigue]

What do you do when you have something big coming up? I mean do you do a ritual with your makeup or anything? Are there certain things like stuff you do so you don't look tired, so your face is in tip-top form for that day? Anything????

 

[katrosier]

There are make up rituals?? I just do some meditation?

For a big day, I try and get lots of sleep, but it's always impossible because I'm super excited about whatever is going to happen. I try and do new hairstyles, but that never works out either. Most of the time when I plan for big days, I seem to ditch it at the last minute.

I'll practice new makeup looks ahead of time (if I want to try a new look) so that I'm not super-stressed on the day of. I try to get as much sleep as possible (hah!) and eat well. If I start getting anxious, I do some deep breathing exercises. Oh, and in the lead-up to the big day, I try to be perfect with my skincare.

 

[Retro-Violet]

i just take my time to make sure its all perfect (or close to perfect).

Hhhmmmm...I also try to get enough sleep. But. also I usually give myself a facial a couple days before. Not THE day before in case there is any redness or irritation, and I pay special attention to my eye makeup.

 

[Princess6828]

Um...pretty much just try to get enough sleep - which never ever happens if I'm excited about something. Other than that, I try not to plan things too much because that never usually works out either.

Lots of sleep and lots of time to get myself together..

 

[Jesskaa]

Loads of sleep & i drink water.

 

[jeansguyokc]

Lot's of sleep....ya right. Do microderm the night before, and use my new hightlighting pen especially around my eyes, and bronzer.

 

[monniej]

for me it's water, water, water for a couple of days before a big event. my skin seems to dehydrate very quickly as i get older and can look dry and chalky instead of dewy and moisturized. i want to be radiant for all special occasions.

 

[Little_Lisa]

Try to get a good night's sleep

Have a facial or microderm treatment days prior

Do something special with my hair

Allow plenty of "gettin' ready" time

 

[Aquilah]

Hmmm... I normally just spend more time than normal making extra sure I look good...

:dito:

I usually don't try anything new on that day, but will try it out several days prior (whether it be new MU look, hair style, etc). I tend to eat up extra time just doing normal things on that day, so my hubby gets me started WAY earlier... lol :rotfl:

 

[Shelley]

It depends.. I usually try to get more sleep a few days before, plan on what I am wearing, makeup etc. I exfoliate and use a moisturizing mask the night before to make my skin glowy.

 

[StrangerNMist]

I try to prepare everything I need the night before, then I make sure that I get to bed early so I can get plenty of rest. I want to make sure that I feel good and that I'm well rested before I start the day.

 

[PerfectMistake]

I usually do an all day thing, starting with straitening my hair down to painting my toe nails!
