Gearing up for Superbowl Sunday? If
you’re not quite set on painting your face in team colors, we’ve
got beauty tips straight from the pros to looking gorge without going
overboard. Promise, it’s not as tricky as winning a game in
overtime.
Kick off the game with some glow
“You don’t want to doll yourself up
in products and colors you wouldn’t normally wear. You have to be
true to you…just magnified,” says celebrity makeup artist
Kristopher Buckle.
Brush on some blush, (we like CoverGirl
Cheekers Blush) on your cheeks for a hint of rosiness. For an
illuminated glow, dab on a light shimmer powder on the high parts of
your face (cheekbones, tip of your nose and chin, and on your
browbone).
>>Show your team spirit: A
temporary tattoo on your temple is a cute and low-key way to show who
you’re rooting for.

Bring out your eyes
Keeping it kind of simple is the way to
go while you cheer for the game. You don’t need anything but
mascara for gameday, says Buckle. “Also remember a sheer, fresh
colored lip color,” he adds.
>>Show your team spirit: Choose
liner and shadow in blue (works for both teams!). Wanna show Giants
pride? Add a deep red lip.

During London Fashion Week, Pantene
Global Ambassador Sam McKnight worked his charm to create a modern
ponytail with soft curls for one of the models. You can get that look
with a few cinchy steps.
Create curls
Use a medium barrel curling iron to
curl the bottom half of your hair and clip those locks in place to
make the curls stay. Heated rollers also work to get this look.
Unclip curled hair and run a brush through your tresses. Using a
comb, make a side part starting from the spot that’s closest to the
arch of your eyebrow to the crown of your head. Bring your tresses
over the ear on the side opposite to the part and secure ‘em with
elastic to get a low ponytail on the side.
>>Show your team spirit: Tie a
blue or red ribbon around your pony, and you’re set! Go team!
