Color Guard Show Makeup & Hair

Each member will need to provide $20 (cash or checks made payable to TCMB) before our first contest for hair and makeup this year. This will cover:

Gold Eye Glitter $5
Bronze Eye Glitter $5
Glitter Stick $5 (used to apply the glitter around the eyes)
Small cosmetic bag
Make-up brush set (needed to apply glitter)
Gold or Bronze Braided Headband $4
Lip Gloss $1

Because we are buying such a large quantity, we are receiving a $3.75 per item discount on both the glitters and glitter pen, typically all of these items would cost over $31.


Messy Bun Instructions LINK

Your competition hair should look like the picture to the left. We will be wearing headbands similar to the one in the photo, you will need to backcomb your hair before you create the bun to achieve the height in the hair between the headbands.

1. Gather your hair into a mid ponytail.
2. Make sure the ponytail is loose in order to obtain the wanted look.
3. Make a simple bun, and pull out about 4-5 hair strands out of it. (Each about an inch wide)
4. Take each strand one at a time and loop them into your rubber band. (This will make a flower effect to your bun) Don’t make it too perfect, it’s a messy bun.
5. Loosen the hair around your ponytail (at the top of your head and around the neck).
6. Add hairspray!

If you want to save on bobby pins, Goody makes a new hair tool called Spin Pins that work really well to keep a bun in place (you need hair that at least goes past your shoulders). They run about $6 at drugstores and discount stores like Target and Wal-Mart.

Eye makeup and lip gloss will be purchased for each member. We are using eye/face glitter this year and what is being purchased is safe to use around the eye area and for those members who wear contacts.

In addition to our eye makeup and lips, each member needs to provide the following items on their own (most of which you probably own already):

Foundation (even if you don’t typically wear foundation, you need it)
Face Power (translucent or foundation-style is fine)
Concealer (optional)
Black or Black/Brown Mascara
Brown Eye Liner
Blush
Eye Shadow Brush (you must have this to apply the glitter, they will come with the makeup)

You will also need to bring to each competition:
Hairspray
Rubber Bands (please get some that are close to matching your hair color)
LOTS of Bobby Pins (that match your hair color)
Comb or Pick (to tease/backcomb hair)
Brush
Curling Iron or Flat Iron

Makeup remover and cotton pads or makeup remover wipes are optional, but a good idea.
