Bridal Makeup Tips
Wedding Day is the most important day in the life of a woman and every young girl desires to look at her best on this blessed day in her life. Here are some tips to make you look as gorgeous as a queen.
- Use heavy-pigmented cream foundation and layer it with powder foundation to make the skin look smoother.
- Use powder foundation on neck, ears and chest too so that you don’t seem to have a painted face.
- Use a concealer shade similar to the foundation and blend both well.
- Learn some camouflage makeup tricks and buy its products to use on your big day.
- If you have combination skin, use water based foundation and a dry sponge.
- Hide the under eye circles by applying concealer. Blend it towards the nose and use downward strokes.
- For a perfect eye shape, use a small brush to blend a medium tone color from just below the brow arch downwards in a semi-circle motion.
- Use light peach eye shadow as eyelid base.
- Choose lip liner that blends easily with lipstick for that soft glossy look that looks good in photographs too.
- Place the focus on the face either on eyes or on lip and underplay the other with neutral pink or brown shades.
- Thin and small lips look more sensuous with light lip colors while fuller lips can use deep shades.
Eye Makeup Tips
Eye makeup needs more skill than the rest of the face, as eyes are often the focus when we look at a person. Here are some tips to make it easier for you.
- Eyeliner is meant to add depth to eyes and give definition to lash line. To do so, hold the eyelid skin taut with fingertips of one hand and draw as fine a line as you can very close to the lash line with the other hand. Your hands should be steady for the purpose.
- For the soft smoky look, smudge the edge of the line with the smear end of the eyeliner pencil.
- For added natural beauty look, extend a very fine line to the innermost part of the upper lid.
- Lining the lower lashes add the dramatic effect to your looks. You can do so by adding tiny dots to lash roots and a fine line on the outer half of the lower lash line.
- Liquid eyeliners give more glamorous look but require more skill too.
- Use slate, blue, grey and plum eye shadows for brown eyes, pink, salmon, mauve and brownish pink for green eyes and brown, camel and taupe shades for blue eyes.
- Curling lashes open up your eyes. Do so by squeezing them with a lash curler from lash line to three fourth way toward tips.
- Stick to dark colored mascaras such as navy blue or plum for they look more natural.
- Apply two coats of mascara, sweeping the wand from roots to ends. Wiggle the wand a little as you move upwards to detach the lashes and make them stand out.
