"You know that feeling when you've done a great job with your makeup and you're instantly, like, ten times more confident? Multiply that by a thousand\u00A0for the night of your homecoming dance. To help you look\u2014and feel\u2014like a million bucks, we're calling on the pro behind some of the prettiest red carpet looks you've seen. Kayleen McAdams preps stars like Emma Stone and Lily Collins for their big nights, and now she's helping you get ready for yours. Read on for the CK One Color global makeup artist's\u00A0most important tricks, like how to completely cover a blemish and what trends to try that will make you stand out amongst a sea of smoky lids and glossy lips.\n\nMake your look last by starting with a base.\n\n \"Use a primer before you put on your makeup,\" says McAdams. \"CK One 3-in-1 Oil-Free Face Makeup is a primer, nourishing serum, and foundation all in one bottle. It will make your look last so much longer.\"\n\nGo crazy with colors, not foundation.\n\n \"A lot of teens with acne or confidence concerns start with too heavy of a base. You really want to do something sheer and let your own skin to shine through. And play with fun colors! Don't be afraid to stand out and be different from your friends. Try a purpley lipstick or a jewel-toned eye look\u2014they're so big for fall! You can even play with a colored mascara. If you don't like it, just wash it off.\"\n\nYou can match your makeup to your dress, but you've got to do it right.\n\n \"I think this can really work! Celebrities often pair a red dress with a red lip, which is really fun, but keep everything else very sheer. With eyes, do a little less. For example, if you're wearing an eggplant dress, try something subtle, like an eggplant liner instead of a full-on shadow.\"\n\nBronzer isn't just for summer.\n\n \"Apply a sheer layer with a really fluffy brush so it won't look too heavy. You don't want a total tan. The goal is just to appear a little sun-kissed. Pick one with a bit of shimmer in it to illuminate your skin.\"\n\nDon't panic if you wake up with a bad breakout on the big day.\n\n \"Put a creamy concealer on a really tiny brush and apply it directly to the blemish. Then pat it with your finger. Do a couple layers of that and set it with a little powder. You really need to work the product into the blemish as best as you can. If you're still not feeling great about your skin, try a beautiful eye or a red lip. Play up your other features!"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
