The Only Things You Need For Perfect Wedding Day Makeup

By  | 

The centerpiece of every wedding is a stunning bride who glows from her head to toe. Naturally, as a to-be-bride, you too must research the right products and styles that will help you look radiant on that day.  Today we are presenting some tips to help you achieve that perfect wedding day makeup:

For brides on a limited budget

If you are on a limited budget and do not wish to hire a wedding makeup artist and hair stylist, you must at least research some cosmetic products available at big malls. Many stores also offer testing services and sample makeup trials that can help you select the right look and colours for the day. Brides must ensure investing in quality makeup brushes, applicators and tools to perfect their DIY wedding makeup look.

Accentuating the eyes

If you decide to play up your eyes a bit, make sure that you try on false eyelashes as well as the right eye shadow which matches with your wedding attire. You must definitely go for eyebrow shaping at a professional’s and even enquire about eye tinting. If you are planning on using pencil on your eyebrows, make sure you have some experience in that department; else the effect could be overwhelming. We recommend L’Oreal‘s super gel eyeliner that lasts 24 hours.

Eyeshadow

Slightly on the higher priced range, this kit is an ideal starter kit for eye makeup novices. It contains a compact eye-pencil and mascara and also has the perfect shades for everyday use as well.

Foundation

These days you can buy mineral foundation with natural light reflecting properties which give a satiny smooth finish. If you have normal to dry skin, you could use low-to-medium smooth coverage that can make your skin look healthy and radiant. Stick foundations also glides rather easily for a flawless finish.  We recommend this foundation stick which has full coverage with SPF.

Lip Gloss that plumps

You could consider the lip gloss with plumping action available from Bourjois. We have covered tips for choosing the right lipstick shades for our brides here.

If you have a makeup artist coming in for the day, make sure they have the latest products in their kit. Choose a professional who is up-to-date with the emerging trends. For example, spring 2015 brides can look forward to bronze, honey or copper tones. If you are fair skinned, you could choose berry tones for the lips and keep the eyes toned down. Many makeup specialists also offer hair styling services and you can browse through this section on hairstyles to come up for the one you can wear on the day. Be creative with the hair accessories-there is so much variety out there- you can choose from Mughal inspired pieces to traditional or regional favourites. Hair extensions can also help you transform your everyday tresses into the dream locks you want for the occasion. Do not forget to keep beauty essentials handy on the day for touch ups, especially if your stylist/makeup artist will not be with you all day. Carry a small bottle of hair spray as well –just in case! Now relax and enjoy the wedding!
