Getting ready for the big day

On the other hand, most choose to hire the services of a bridal makeup artist. This figure, in addition to having the experience and ability, can also advise on the technique and style that best suits you and goes according to your tastes and the event itself. 

In this type of services it is very important to have constant updates. For this reason, these professionals must be at the forefront and have completed a quality bridal makeup course

Natural wedding makeup options 

As we have already said, the natural look is here to stay and it is not in vain that it is one of the most followed trends when it comes to wedding makeup. The goal is undoubtedly to achieve an elegant and flattering look, but minimalist. 

Whether it's a daytime, evening or nighttime event, outdoors or in a salon, natural wedding makeup is the answer. Take a seat and we'll show you how to do your wedding makeup.  

Natural wedding makeup for evening weddings 

We have the false belief that, being at night, it should be overloaded and it is quite the opposite, for these cases, the option of no makeup is the right one. 

First of all, you should perform your cleansing routine and then prepare the skin, using primer, moisturizer and contour. Next, apply a foundation, preferably with a modulable coverage. Now correct dark circles under the eyes with the help of your favorite product, this will make that area look much brighter. 

Next, apply some bronzing powder with a thick brush and apply it to the cheekbones, chin, temples and finally the décolleté. Next, it's time for blush. Here, you can go for a peachy tone on the cheek area and finally close with the highlighter, just above the blush. 

As for the eyes, gold shadows are a good choice. They add an extra touch of sophistication, perfect for the evening. Then, apply mascara and define the eyebrows with the help of a little gel. 

As for lips, nude tones are your best option, but you can add a touch of gloss. Another option that is also flattering is to opt for a black eyeliner and finally contrast with satin red lips. 

Natural makeup for daytime weddings 

If the wedding is during the day, natural wedding makeup makes even more sense than if it is at night. 

Here, after preparing the skin, use a fairly light foundation but with glow finishes, with a touch of shine, which will give your skin a natural but quite radiant tone. 

Apply translucent powder on the so-called T-zone, i.e. nose, chin and forehead. Follow with a little blush on the cheekbones, but very well blended, this is essential. 

Now, for the eyes, the best choice is pastel shades, depending on the color of your dress you can choose between lilac, turquoise, green, blue and pink shades. You can also complement with an eye pencil and of course, mascara. Don't forget to define your eyebrows, this is important. 

For the lips, also bet on a nude color, but creamy or if you prefer a pink tone. 

Strengthening the eyes 

Yes, the eyes will always be the protagonist of any look. Here you can take advantage of playing with different tones in both shadows and pencils and finally seal with mascara. If you want to reinforce your natural look, earth tones are the right ones. In addition to the fact that they flatter all women, regardless of age, they enhance the look in an elegant way. 

You can combine several shades from this palette, both on the mobile and fixed eyelid. Opt for matte finishes if the wedding is during the day. If it is at night, the satin ones are your best option.   

Pencil eyeliner tends to give a more natural touch, compared to pen eyeliner. For daytime events we recommend brown, while black is for evening weddings. 

Regarding the eyelashes, curl them first and then apply mascara. Be very careful not to leave clumps, as apart from looking too heavy, they tend to stick together and give the opposite result to the one we are looking for. 

Last but not least, define your eyebrows well. Try to fill in any gaps you may have and with the help of a gel, fix the hairs well, so they will always stay perfect.
