Its spring time and high school kids are looking for their fabulous prom looks. "Red Band Society" actress Ciara Bravo shows us how it's done in a fun stylish and quirky way! For this shoot, i asked Ciara for guidance in creating these looks based on how she would like to wear her hair, and the trending make-up looks she likes if she was going to prom. This fabulous actress was obviously too busy working to actually attend high school or go to prom, but if she did, she would have been rocking one of these looks!

FOX TV has a new show coming later this year called "REDBAND SOCIETY". It's a "dramedy" about teens/young adults in the terminal ward of a California Hospital. Although that may sound depressing, it's more like high school in a hospital, or as Ciara puts it "This isn't a show about death, It's a show about life."
I met Ciara for hair and make-up on a press tour for the show, but first she and fellow co-star Nolan Sotillo visited real sick teens in Hospitals in LA. They hung out talked, and cheered the kids up, while listening to their stories about what life is like living there. Apparently they get up to all sorts of things you'd never imagine!
Ciara attended the Summer TCAs, doing interviews and shoots for Access Hollywood, ET, Hollywood Reporter, TV Guide, etc. Then she spoke with the rest of the cast on a panel about the upcoming program.
This young actress has a fantastic attitude towards life, work and family. She is always polite, poised, and smiling. I did her hair and make-up for this as well as the after party at SOHO House.
For the day time, we kept her beautiful long hair down with soft waves. In the evening we decided on slightly smokey, but still soft eyes. I used MAC Cosmetics Powerpoint eyeliner in ENGRAVED, Christian Dior eyeshadows, MAKE UP FOREVER HD Blush, STILLA lipgloss and MAC Cosmetics Mineralize Skinfinish Natural Powder.
Earlier this summer I collaborated with Beverly Hills based fashion photographer Benjo Arwas, and stylist Franzy We shot some stunning looks for Bravo that you will see soon. Here's a little sneak peek. All I can say, is I'm looking forward to what comes next!
