BRIDAL MAKEUP: How to Do Your Own Wedding Makeup


Bridal Makeup

It is every girls dream to become a bride. You want to look your best because your wedding day is the most important and happiest day in your life. All you want is a radiant, fresh looking, flawless skin and a young healthy glowy look! 













  


If you like the idea of doing your own bridal/wedding makeup,  here you will find the tips and tricks on how you can do it yourself.

What you will need is:

- Moisturiser
- Makeup primer
- Foundation
- Concealer
- Face powder  (2 shades: light shade for under-eye, darker shade for the rest of your face)
- Blush
- Lip liner
- Lipstick
- Eyeliner
- Eye pencil
- Eyelash curler
- Mascara (preferably waterproof)
- Eyeshadow primer
- Eyeshadow
- Brushes and sponges








1. Start by washing your face. Get rid of the excess oils off your face.












2. Apply moisturiser. Dry skin will make the cosmetics look uneven on your face. Wait a few minutes so that moisturiser penetrates the skin. 









3. Apply primer. Makeup primers are essential for such events. They prolong the staying power of your makeup.







 

4. Apply your foundation evenly, preferably with a brush or a wet sponge.






 

5. Conceal your under-eye area, or any imperfections on your face. Use a concealer brush or a sponge.













6. Apply light-colored face powder generously over your undereye area with a sponge.










7. Apply the darker (which fits your own skin color) face powder all over your face, skipping under-eye area.












8. Apply eye primer so that your eyeshadow will stay put and will look more radiant.













9. Do your eye makeup. Don't forget to highlight your brow bone.











10. Curle your lashes.













11. Apply your eye-liner and/or eyepencil.










12. Put on your mascara. Water proof mascara is much better on such events as there is a possibility you will cry.












13. Brush on your blush on the cheek bones. You can highlight above the cheekbones.









14. Apply lip liner, then your lipstick.











15. Finish with a makeup fixing spray. (optional)

GOLDEN TIPS AND WARNINGS:

- Make several trials. Practice.
- The key is to look like yourself, only better. 
- Most important thing is your skin tone: choosing your foundation. 
- Use makeup primer and eyeshadow primer to make your makeup stay longer
- Pluck your eyebrows and remove your facial hair the day before your wedding: Allow time for any redness or irritation to lessen.

French tips with glitter or gorgeous nail polish colors can be the easiest way to a stylish nail art design. You can use guiding strips to help you create a perfect line which you can purchase or create your own using scotch tape. Use your favorite color and glam-up your nails using glitter dust or flakes, depending on personal preference. Soft lines and dots created over the French tip can give that high dose of sophistication that grabs all the attention.

Flowers can also be a perfect alternative for a chic nail art design and there are a variety of techniques which can be used to create floral nail art designs.

If you're not too skilled at doing your own nail art designs and wish to start easy, you can apply a nail polish and use nail art stickers to give that sophisticated touch to your nails. Always seal your nail art design using a clear top coat as this can really make a difference. Allow the nail polish to dry completely before applying a top coat to prevent the nail polish from blending and smudging. 













Pay attention to details and your nails will definitely capture everyone's attention.
