DIY: Wedding Make-Up

When it comes to wedding day make-up there are a few things to keep in mind. Your wedding day make-up needs to be a more glamorous version of you. You don’t want your make-up to be distracting, but you do want it to look great in photos. It needs to last through all the kissing, dancing, and eating.

Today we put together a few tips to keep in mind when doing your own wedding day make-up.

Moisturizer

You want to make sure your foundation goes on evenly so take it easy on the moisturizer the day of the wedding. Put enough moisturizer on your skin to hydrate it where its needed.

Lashes

If your skipping the fake lashes then make sure you use an eye lash curler. Curl your lashes when they are totally dry–not immediately after washing your face and applying moisturizer. If you don’t wait for them to dry then the curl won’t stick.

Eyes

For an extra-precise wedding-day look, do your eyes first, use a damp tissue to dust your under-eyes and cheeks clean, then follow with concealer and foundation.

Neck

A dramatic neckline will show in your photos. Make sure your neck and face are the same shade. You can either apply foundation on your neck when applying your make-up or you can dust bronzer on the areas that get less sun.

Products

You don’t have to buy all new products for your wedding day look. Chances are you already have the perfect color pallets in your make-up bag. One thing to keep in mind is not to use cream products the day of the wedding. After a while the cream products will soak in and you won’t be able to see your make-up. Use powder blush, shadow and either pencil or long-wear gel eyeliner for the more glamorous you!
