Pageant Makeup Guide

July 14, 2022

Pageant season is upon us! Whether you are someone who is new to this, or a seasoned veteran, you know the importance of a good physical first impression when competing. If you hire someone to glam you up, or if you do it yourself (you go girl), it’s always good to keep a good makeup kit on hand for touch-ups or a change of look! Here’s our current favorite staple pieces we think would be perfect for any pageant girl.

Eyes

The eyes are the windows to the soul, and when competing, they show our emotions and confidence! These are our favorite products to help accentuate just how confident you are.

Natasha Denona Glam Eyeshadow Palette

Versatile and gorg! This palette has all the neutral shades you need to go from personal interview to on-stage glam. A must have!

Lilly Lashes 3D Faux Mink – Rome

Adding false lashes adds the perfect amount of definition and really completes any look. These are a staple anytime!

Diorshow Brow Styler 

Eyebrows frame the face, so this product will allow you to enhance your brows and give your eye look that finishing touch.

Face

Your face is your best asset! You always want to show off your bone structure and highlight your most beautiful features. Here’s some products we know will withstand the stage lighting and long hours of rehearsals and photos!

Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer

A good primer is the key to a long-lasting base, and this one is essential to any makeup artist’s kit! 

Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze & Glow Duo

Adding definition to the face is key when being under the stage lights. This bronzer & highlighter duo is perfect for that radiant and chiseled glow.

Fenty Beauty Pro Filt’r Setting Powder

Set. It. All! A good setting powder is a must in the pageant world. We want to be able to keep our look locked in place and this one from Fenty Beauty offers a beautiful, skin-like finish.

Lips

The most important part of any look. Whether you’re smiling, smizing, or talking, having a good lipstick helps accentuate the most expressive part of our face and adds character. Here are our essentials!

Patrick Ta Percision Lip Crayon

Having a good lip liner helps keep the rest in place. This gorgeous formula lasts all day and the various nude colors fit all skin tones. A must have!

Armani Beauty Lip Power Lipstick

Lipstick is always key. This one provides a satin, moisturizing finish with many colors to choose from. A nude and a red color are a staple to switch up your looks on and off stage.

Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Lip Luminizer

A cult favorite, for a good reason! This lipgloss comes in various shades and looks beautiful on virtually anyone. Use this to top off your lip combo for the ultimate glam!

Extras

Makeup application tools make all the difference. Here’s a few that we know will help make creating your pageant look a whole lot easier!

Laura Mercier Velour Puff

This puff is perfect for setting your face (with that fab setting powder) and touching up any areas throughout the day. Pro-tip: use this on the hand that tends to rest on your face to prevent you from smudging your makeup.

Riki Light Up Mirror

Whether you’re doing your own makeup backstage, or want to make sure your look stays good all day, having a good travel mirror by your side is a huge help. This one has LED lights which help mimic stage lighting which is also a huge plus.

Caboodles Makeup Case

Now, you’ve got all the makeup essentials, but where are you going to put it all? This chic makeup case is perfect for organizing and storing your makeup and is ideal for traveling.
