If you’re getting married and you want to do your own makeup then these tips should help you get a flawless look on the happiest day of your life!

Oh no you don’t! Shut this one down right now; by swapping your usual foundation for a low or no SPF one. Even the ones with very little in them can look bad when photographed and that’s the last thing you want to see when you get the pictures of your special day.

Make sure you don’t end up with black teared stained tracks down face but using a waterproof mascara and eyeliner. Using a waterproof eyeliner when tight lining will also stop any transfer making its way to your water line and lower lash line.

If you want your eyes to be dramatic without looking too harsh or overdone then opt for a charcoal, maroon or navy eyeliner. These colours will compliment most eyes and skin tone and add colour into your look with being too heavy.

Fill in your brows to frame your eyes (even if it’s not something you do on a day to day basis). Use a pencil, powder or pomade that is close to your hair colour for the most complimentary pairing.

Seriously; just keep going until your feels like it’s going to fall off. Cameras have a nasty little habit of picking up on even the slightest make up lines especially around your eyes.

They may look great in real life but you’ll more than likely find that you’ll look wash out in the pictures. So choose something with a pop of colour like pink even if you just put it over the top if your nude option it will still lift the face and create a more dimensional look to your lips.

Once you are done with your make up don’t forget to set it in place with either a powder or a setting spray. This will ensure that your makeup looks fresher for longer.

Now get practising!

Big Love
