You can't pull of a rockabilly look with clothes alone. Here's how to get the makeup and hair to complete your look.
NATURAL-LOOKING FLAWLESS FACE
Start with a face base.
Use a cream-based foundation that matches your natural skin color.
Use a brush to apply foundation and blend it into the hairline, along the jaw line, and onto the neck to avoid a makeup line.
A darker shade of foundation can be used as a bronzer; apply with a brush lightly where the sun would normally hit the skin – cheekbones, nose, forehead, and chin.
Finish off the flawless face look with Moister Surge Face Spray by Clinique.
CLASSIC CAT EYE
Start with a cream eye base to keep the shadows and liner in place.
Use a flat-tip brush and use small strokes to apply the eyeliner.
A Q-tip can be used to correct any eyeliner mistakes and can also be used to blend the color into the corners of the eye.
Use black, waterproof mascara and apply 2-3 coats on the tops and bottoms of the lashes.
POUTY RED LIPS
Use a lip liner that matches the lipstick you're using and only draw along the natural lip line.
Use a lipstick with eight- or 12-hour wear.
Finish off the lips with a high-gloss lip shine.
CLASSIC ROCKABILLY POMPADOUR
Start with day-dirty hair; it will be easier to style and work better with the products.
Separate the hair into three sections and pull the last two sections into ponytails. Clip the top section up and out of the way.
Smooth a small amount of pomade on the sides of the ponytails to eliminate frizz and bumps.
To hide the hair bands, wrap a chunk of the ponytail around the band and secure with a bobby pin.
Spray the hair with a quick-drying hairspray and spray farther away from the head to keep flakes from forming.
Rat up the top section of hair by taking half-inch-thick parts and brushing down to the root. Spray with hairspray, smooth back, and secure with bobby pin.
The pomp height can be determined by adjusting the bobby pin.
