Answer 1

Don't go overboard! It sounds like your dress is very bold so don't let your face clash with it!

Try wearing a light foundation and bronzer (to brighten up pasty skin) and minimal eye makeup. I wouldn't wear any bright colours with such a bright dress, try either a natural beige or taupe with a darker brown eyeliner (ABOVE your lashline NOT on the inside of your eye) or a warm grey eye shadow. I'd go for a peachy nude lipgloss or a sparkly nude lipstick to keep the minimal look. If you want to add a bit of extra drama to your eyes, don't do it with colour, try false eyelashes. They can look really glamourous if you keep everything else simple and natural, especially with a glamourous red dress like yours!

Answer 2

the first step is to use a foundation that match your skin.

then you start with an pink eyeshawdon, and maybe a brown or black mascara.

you can put the eyeliner on the lowerlid.

you can put a light pink and red blush.

maybe a lipgloss if your lip is kind of red. if not, then put a lipsticke then lipgloss.
