What are some things that dimish the look of BRACES?

Question

i will be getting them off in a half a year.

i have medium-full lips and medium-small size eyes so i guess that draws attention to my mouth. i haven't worn any lip gloss or color, just BALM, for the last year. i wear a little bit of eye makeup, and have focused on cleansing, exfoliating, toning, moisturizing my skin (which is clear) so my llook is cleaner.

anything else i can do

Answer 1

Perhaps try learning some deeper eye makeup effects (smokey eye, brighter shadows) so it draws people's eyes even further upward from your mouth?

IMO braces show you care about your appearance & are doing something proactive for your life, but I know how school can be!

Hang in there & good luck!

Answer 2

I thought they my braces would be everyones focus on me. But if you get a light color (I have lavendar) it doesn't stand out that much, so don't get like orange or hot pink or anything. And if you are that concerned about it then yes, bring the attention to your eyes.

Answer 3

earrings and eye area makeup

Answer 4

Where really ugly shoes to distract people from your mouth, lol. Or make your hair look really nice. Spend lots of time on it so people notice the hair and not your mouth. Braces really aren't that bad though,for every person I've seen get braces (except me) I think it makes them look better.  

Answer 5

well i think i the worst thing about braces is yellow teeth and if u can prevent that u'll look fine.

Answer 6

Distract the attention by wearing really nice eye makeup or having really nice hair

anyway, braces are not the end of the world and i didn't really care when  i had them because everyone was going through the braces phase as well....and i got mine off before a lot of other people as well

you just have to be confident in yourself and know that it will pay off in the end - you will have really great teeth!!
