Gals who wear glasses on the regular may be considering wearing contacts for prom, but if your specs are a part of your signature style, you'll likely be looking for prom makeup for people who wear glasses.
If you fancy a change, contact lenses are an awesome way to mix things up for special occasions, but of course, you should always stay true to yourself and never feel peer-pressured into doing anything you don't want to — that includes ditching your glasses for prom. It may seem like a silly thing to mention, but your parents, friends, or even your date may suggest you wear contacts for the big day. But, don't cave in if you love your glasses! A pair of awesome glasses can really make an outfit and speak volumes about your innate style. Just like any other garment or accessory, your glasses may make you feel like a million dollars, so don't be dissuaded from wearing them by anyone.
With that in mind, you've probably begun thinking about your makeup for prom. The eyes are (apparently) the windows to the soul so you'll want to choose a makeup look that emphasises this, as well as complementing your frames.
