Wedding makeup for guests
A wedding is always a significant and memorable celebration, and not only the bride is going to it for several months. In no case should we forget about such important people as mother and bridesmaids, sisters, aunts and other guests, who should also look beautiful and impeccable. Many people wonder what kind of makeup guests should do. Not everyone knows how not to overdo it with bright shades and not look too vulgar, and also how not to outshine the hero of the occasion with false eyelashes.
Makeup Features
The wedding makeup of the guests, as well as the bride herself, of course, should not be very catchy and defiant. A wedding is a magical celebration with moderate colors, usually in a delicate color palette. Of course, no one has canceled bright accents in makeup and eye-catching lipsticks, but there should be a measure in everything.
Today, themed weddings and those where all the guests use the same colors in outfits have become very popular. Either these trends came from the West, or they arose by themselves - it makes no sense to understand, but they are very popular. Such celebrations involve not only the same or similar dresses for the bridesmaids, but also make-up in the same style, which will not make all the twins at all. Makeup artists bring a touch of personality to every lady.
The main question that worries mom, witness and girlfriends is who to give preference to when creating makeup for such a serious event. If you are planning a joint gathering on the wedding day, where mom and bridesmaids will be present, then a makeup artist would be a great option. He will easily make everyone beautiful - for a certain and predetermined time. In addition, if all the ladies gather at once, then the makeup artist will be able to help with all the little things in the make-up and even make the same or similar makeup - if necessary.
If you still decide to get together "everyone", then do not forget to practice in advance with the makeup that you will have at such an important event.
Make up for mom
One of the main guests of an important wedding celebration, of course, is the mother. I would like to note right away that makeup for the mother of the bride must endure all day - tears, laughter, possibly temperature changes. Such makeup should be created using professional and waterproof cosmetics.
Of course, it is better to entrust the make-up of the mother of the bride and the mother of the groom to a professional, because on such an important day the hand can tremble, and nothing will come of excitement.
Whomever you entrust wedding makeup for mom, herself or a makeup artist, be sure to pay attention to the following points:
- Makeup should be in harmony with the color of the hair, eyes and outfit..
- If the wedding ceremony takes place in the summer or you know the weather will be hot, then it is better to give preference to light makeup that will not let you down throughout the day.
- For mature ladies, it is recommended to use fluid tonal products.to avoid wrinkles.You can choose light tonal creams with an anti-age effect and special pigments (for natural skin radiance and visual reduction of signs of aging).
- For mom, it is best to use a pastel palette of shades in makeup., dark colors are recommended to place accents.
Summing up, we can say that wedding makeup for mom should be light, festive and reduce a couple of years from her age.
For the witness
Most often, the bride and the witness do makeup at the same time, and this is not surprising. They will be with each other all day, which means that their make-up should be in harmony, but not be the same. A few helpful tips:
- If the bride has a gentle make-up in pastel shades, then it makes sense for the witness to choose colors a little brighter, but not too defiant.
- You can make not very bright smoky eyes.
- At the same time, the girl's skin should be perfectly even..
- Fluffy eyelashes are welcome (but not huge false ones), as well as delicate lip glosses and discreet matte lipsticks.
- If you do not use the services of a makeup artist, then carefully select the color palette to create a make-up at home. It should be successfully combined with hair, hair color and skin.
For sisters and girlfriends
The bridesmaids and the witness should know in advance what makeup the bride will have. If it is made in bright and moderate shades, then it makes sense for girlfriends to perform contrasting and muted make-ups. It is worth considering the following recommendations:
- Since this event involves long photo shoots, the skin of the bridesmaids (as well as herself) must be perfect.An excellent option would be to use tonal products from the professional brand Smashbox, whose products are just focused on numerous photography. They definitely won't let you down.
- Don't forget about eyebrow shaping. Their forms should be clear, and the hairs should be laid.
- Powder is better to use mineral or transparent, a great option would be to use highlighters and illuminators to give a natural glow to the skin of the face.
- Eyes can be covered with plain delicate shadows (or in a combination of several shades, between which there should be smooth transitions).
- Eyelashes should not be so long that they touch the eyebrows. It is better to stay on voluminous mascara and not be too zealous.
- A great option would be to use transparent voluminous lip glosses or matte lipsticks..
We can say that makeup for bridesmaids and bridesmaids should be moderate - and not defiant at all. After all, this is not a party in a club, but a solemn event, which has its own limits of behavior, because guests of all ages gather here.
We paint at home
If you still decide to do makeup at home, then the following instructions will help you to perform the make-up step by step:
- Stock up on durable cosmetics and makeup fixer.
- Prepare your skin first, clean it and apply moisturizing and nourishing creams.
- Then you should use the base for makeup (primer) or base. Dark circles under the eyes can be corrected with a concealer.
- In the next step, apply on the face foundation (if necessary, use powder - to fix the effect).
- If you are good at sculpting - do, but in no case experiment on your wedding day.
- Convex parts of the face can be emphasized using a highlighter (nose, area under the eyebrows, above the lips and above the cheekbones).
- Apply blush or a not-so-bright bronzer to your cheekbones. Delicate shades can emphasize the "apples" of the cheeks, this will refresh the face.
- Eye makeup can be done using a variety of shadows or in a monochromatic design. You can complement it with elegant French arrows and adding accents with the help of a brilliant pigment.
- Lipstick color to choose focusing on the brightness of eye makeup. If it is made brightly, then give preference to delicate cream lipstick or gloss. If the eyes are not very catchy, a good option would be to use a contrasting lipstick. Don't forget to outline with a pencil.
A few weeks before the celebration, it is better to go to the beautician and do a facial cleansing. In addition, you need to try to improve your diet.
