waking up/looking good for pictures?

Question

okay so I didnt go to sleep tonight and I have my senior pictures to take tomorrow. stupid I know, but I was so nervous about finding the right outfits and straightening my hair I lost track of time. Im going to be tired tomorrow, with the bags under my eyes, and all that great stuff :[
does anyone know how I can look good for my pictures, and not so tired?
These pictures are a big deal and It was stupid to stay up all night, but I don't want to look worse then I have to....

Answer 1

put 2 spoons in the freezer and then put them over your eyes. the same thing happened to me last year. lol. also, use concealer. anyway here's some steps to getting away eye baggage slash puffiness (i used it)
STEP 1: Gently tap the swollen area with your fingertips to encourage fluids to flow elsewhere.
STEP 2: Apply a cool, soothing substance to your eyes for 5 minutes to reduce fluid retention. Try cucumber slices; a refrigerated gel mask; damp, chilled tea bags; or a damp, cold cloth.
STEP 3: Drink plenty of water. Water retention, which causes bloating, occurs when the body has too much salt and not enough fluids to flush it out.

also, if worse comes to worse, with the technology there is now days, the photographer can probably just photoshop/edit it out to make you look even more flawless than you probably already look!

i hope they go away! =)

Answer 2

water. and lots of it. don't drink anything that will dehydrate you such as coffee, redbull,etc. tempting when you need to stay awake tomorrow but being dehydrated will make your face look awful.

put something cold under your eyes to get rid of the bags and reduce the swelling. a cold cucumber works great. you can also try ice that's wrapped in a washcloth. just don't apply the ice directly to your lids or bags.

if you have a good make-up artist, they'll cover everything else up and make you look flawless. think about all those hollywood stars and rockers that party all night then perform the next day. tip that makeup artist real damned good.

Answer 3

You may think this answer is stupid but I heard on TV by one of the Supermodels that she puts on some preparation H under her eyes to reduce the swelling.

Answer 4

take an ice cube and run it all over your face (untill it melts) not only will it wake you up but it will make your skin flawless and take the bags out from under your eyes

Answer 5

since you've been up all night, try washing your face with icy cold water...if you have cucumbers slice them and place them on your eyes....take some cold orange juice and dab with a cotton pad on your face.....or try making a face pack with almonds and milk...apply for 15 min and wash. you'd look radiant.. don't forget some good eyeshadow which compliments your outfit.
