How to do Bridal Make up at Home: Step by Step Tutorial

It’s your day today and all you want is to look perfect without spending a lot of money at the local spar. Stop panicking; I have a few tips on “How to Make Bridal Makeup at Home” for you.

 

1.      Make sure that you choose a simple and neutral  but glamorous look.

2.      You have to get your facial a few days before your big day in case you get any skin irritations.

3.      Your mascara should be waterproof since you will probably cry half of the day.

4.      Your foundation should match your skin tone and be able to last all day. I recommend  Smashbox-Liquid-Halo-Foundation available at www.Amazon.com.

5.      Your finish up powder should be translucent. My favorite is Mary-Kay-Translucent-Loose-Powder which costs about $12 at Amazon.com.

6.      For you not to have a shiny face and have a natural glow on your wedding day, apply a high lighter on your cheekbones, near the tear ducts, and just under the brows. My favorite high lighter is the MAC Mineralize Skin finish which costs about $41.00 at Amazon.com.

7.      Make sure you wear glitter and shimmer makeup moderately. My favorite is Eye Candy Beauty Treats Glitter powder by NYX which costs about $10.00 at amazon.com.

8.      Use a concealer because it hides skin imperfections. If you have dark blotches or blemishes you can conceal them.

9.      The face primer fills in pores, makes the skin look smooth, and the makeup to last longer. My favorite face primer is MAC-Prep-Prime-Face-Protect.

10. Don’t forget the eye primer so that your eye shadow lasts longer when you cry. My favorite eye primer is Mary-Kay-Eye-Primer.

11. Wear blush on the apple of your cheeks to bring color to your face.  A shade of peach-like pink color goes well with all skin tones. The best blush ever is my love Sheertone-Shimmer-Blush-Peachtwist.

12. Choose a lasting lip color. Lip stains work really well and red is always great because I feel It adds that sexiness and boldness.

 Finish with a lip liner since lip liners prevent the lipstick from bleeding. My favorite and recommended lip stain costs about $14.00 at amazon.com. Smashbox-Limitless-Stain-Color.

13. If your dress shows a little bit of skin use a little amount of soft shimmer so as to add a little sexy. There is absolutely nothing wrong with a sexy bride.

 Get yourself a smash box shimmer powder for $22.00 at Amazon.com. Try the Smashbox-Soft-Lights-Shimmer Powder.

 

14. An easy way to enhance your eyes without using too much makeup is to wear artificial lashes. They are so easy to wear.

 Some brides even get themselves lash extensions for their big day. Get yourself a Mac pair online at Amazon.com, MAC-Fake-Eye-Lashes at $23.00

If you are doing a bridal facial at home, below are the steps on how to do it.

 

This will save you money and time more than you could ever know. This is so that your skin will be clear, smooth, and ready for makeup.

 

Step 1

 

1.    Cleanse your face with a face cleanser of your choice.

2.    Put a few drops of your facial cleanser on the palms of your wet hand.

Make circular movements on your face until you are satisfied that your face is clean.

 I recommend  MAC-Mineralize-Charged-Water-Cleanser which you can get online at Amazon.com for $26.00. My second recommendation is Mary-Kay-3 in 1-TimeWise-Cleanser which you get online at Amazon.com at $16.99.

 I also recommend a cleanser called Regenerist-Luminous-Brightening-Cleanser. Get it online at Amazon.com for about $19.99.

 

Step 2

 

3.    Now it is time for the toner.
4.    Grab a cotton ball and apply a little bit of your toner on it.
 Make circular movements in your face while your face is still wet.
5.    Rinse and dry with a clean and dry face cloth.
 By the way, a toner is good for restoring skin PH level and removing excess dirt.
6.    After that use a clean and soft dry face towel to pat dry.

Step 3

7.    Now apply a moisturizer of your choice and wait a few minutes for it to sink in.

 I recommend Mary Kay Time Wise Age Fighting Moisturizer which costs about $12.00 at Amazon.com.
