As your big day is approaching near, you are making big plans to look your best on the day, with your gown, your jewelry, your shoes, and of course, your wedding makeup. When makeup is concerned, brides often think of wearing a lot of makeup because the day is so special. But hold on! Don’t make that mistake! Loading your face with makeup can make you unidentifiable! You may look prettier than ever, but what if your would-be significant one doesn’t recognize you? He might even get an impression that my wife doesn’t really look that pretty, when she doesn’t wear makeup. So, remember that while wearing makeup for your wedding, you should keep in mind that you should look like yourself and not some fairy, landed on the earth from the heavens! You should just have to enhance your looks with the makeup. Take the examples of Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian. The former is inclined to soft makeup, while the later is a makeup junkie! But both of them looked like themselves on their respective weddings, because they took the aid of makeup just to enhance their looks and not overdo than usual. Having said that, let me tell you what can you consider to enhance your looks on the nuptial.
Your Skin – the Most Important Component of Your Face
Even though you are the owner of heart-throbbing eyes or lips, if your skin is oily or blotchy, you cannot look your best on the big day. So, you should give utmost importance to your skin health and tone. You need not be distressed thinking that your skin is not good. Even big celebrities need to remove flaws in their skin regularly. This is because pollutants, allergens, wrong eating habits, stress and many such factors affect our skin continuously. Here are some quick tips to hide the skin flaws if there are any. Apply a moisturizer or primer before you apply foundation. Also apply a concealer before foundation. Regarding foundation, apply “full foundation cover” ONLY IF NECESSARY; otherwise, avoid it and apply only where necessary. While applying foundation, blend it properly. Choose an appropriate color.
Either Eyes or Mouth
Remember to highlight either your eyes or your lips. Don’t ever highlight both! It may make you look like a clown. If you focus on eye makeup, use only a light pink lipstick or gloss for your lips. If you would love to make lips full, apply light makeup to the eyes.
Do Use A Highlighter Pen
Though it is officially called a concealer, actually it is a highlighter and if you want to look the best, do invest in this product. Nothing else can brighten up the face like it. Apply it a little under the eyes, above brows, in the creases along nose and under chin. Pat softly with your finger. Here’s a master tip – while applying it, look in the mirror with the chin down.
Blotting Sheets – Great for Skin Oils
You might keep on patting your face with a face powder puff; it is good to keep skin oils at bay. But over-powdering is not good either. Instead, consider bloating sheets. They soak up the oil without disturbing your makeup.
Taking the help of a professional is always good for correct makeup tips. Instead of applying your own ideas, which may not be correct, better to go as per the advice of professionals and look really the best on your big day.
