Check out 9 tips on how to do wedding makeup at home
1 – Waterproof
There’s no point running away: you’ll cry at the wedding. So to go through all the emotions calmly, without smudging your makeup, you will need waterproof products. Mascara, eyeliner and eye pencil are the ones that most need to be waterproof.
2 – Eyeshadow and lipstick colors
You need to choose the colors of your eyeshadow and lipstick for your makeup days before the wedding. Shadows for daytime weddings are shades such as peach, gold and light brown. For the night, darker tones, such as dark brown and black, work very well.
Nude lipstick looks great during the day, and coffee brown, burgundy or red at night. To top it off, avoid using eyeshadow in the same color as your dress.
3 – Skin preparation
You need to think about skin preparation. Clean it completely, washing and applying products suitable for your skin type, and then apply a primer all over your face, to ensure the uniformity of your complexion.
4 – Eyes before the base
Now it’s time to focus on brushes, shadows, eyeliner, pencils and mascara.
Before applying the foundation, do the eyes. This is because there will invariably be shadow residue that will need to be removed on the sides of the eyes and below the lower lashes.
Then, apply pencil to the waterline and the roots of the lashes, eyeliner and lots of mascara on the upper lashes, to highlight the look.
In fact, a good tip is to opt for brown eyeshadows. They are timeless and suitable for any occasion.
5 – Intense coverage foundation
At a wedding, there are very bright lights because of the photos and filming. That’s why it asks you to opt for an intense coverage foundation. Apply a more intense powder that suits your skin to set the record straight.
6 – Long-lasting lipstick
The lipstick needs to be long-lasting, because after the wedding there will still be a party and you will be wearing it for a long time. Use long-lasting or matte lipstick.
7 – Don’t try to innovate
Innovating is always good, however, a marriage is not ideal for that. Don’t take too many risks and try to do what you are already familiar with and familiar with. If you want to take risks, start practicing long beforehand to master the techniques.
8 – Translucent powder
For touch-ups, use a good translucent powder, without any color. Apply to areas of the face where oil and shine tend to interfere and can be used on any skin tone.
On the other hand, more yellowish and shimmery tones are recommended for dark and black skin.
9 – touch-up kit
Ceremonies are long. Your skin sweats, you eat and wipe your mouth with a napkin, you drink and lose lipstick in glasses and glasses. Therefore, it is important to have a makeup “touch-up kit” in your clutch. Basically, the essential items are lipstick, translucent powder, concealer and mascara.
