Soft and Natural Bridal Make-up

Posted on July 23, 2008 in Latest News

As said in the previous post, natural look doesn’t mean a no-makeup look. It means nat-look11.jpghaving a look that enhances your natural beauty and glow. If you have decided this to be your style for your d-day then try these simple tips to try this look.

Foundation – Start with a clear washed and moisturized face. Then apply foundation with a foundation brush. Make sure the foundation is slightly darker if not the exact shade as your skin.
Concealer – Concealer should be a shade lighter than your foundation. It is good to conceal your under-eye dark circles, and blemishes. Apply a coat of a translucent powder.
Brows – Use a soft brown eyebrow pencil and simulate the arch of your eyebrows. We are using brown instead of black in order to avoid any form of exaggeration.
Eye Shadow – Bridal eye shadows should be slightly shimmery. For a natural look you can use shades like pink and peach. Dusky skinned women can use bronze and slightly brighter shade of pink. So take a shimmery pink eye shadow andnat-look2.jpg sweep it across your entire eyelid. Use a frosty highlighter right under your brow.
Eyeliner – Take a brown/ natural black pencil eyeliner and apply it over your upper lashes. Make sure you keep the line close. In fact line within your lashes to create an illusion of thick eyelashes. Apply a subtle line on your lower lashes too.
Eyelashes – Curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler. And apply a coat of black mascara.
Cheeks – Use a very light shade of pink as a blush and sweep it across your cheeks. Dusky girls can use a darker peach color on their cheeks. Use a highlighter over your cheekbones to make you look a glowing bride.
Lips – If you are fair you can use a nice rosy pink color on your lips. Dusky girls can go for plums, or slightly neutral pinks. Peach would also look good on you. I suggest you avoid wearing a lip-gloss on your wedding. Instead try staining your lips with the color lipstick for completing the soft natural look.
