Wedding makeup for mother of the bride or groom

A wedding celebration is one of the most important and exciting moments in the life of every family. The focus is not only on the newlyweds, but also on the parents of the newlyweds. People say: "Look at your mother - you will recognize the bride in the future." Mothers at the weddings of their children should complement the impeccability of the newlyweds with their appearance. Absolutely everything is important in the mother’s wedding image: makeup, hairstyle, dress style. During this event, mothers experience the most conflicting feelings, so wedding makeup for mothers is of paramount importance - it must skillfully hide sad emotions, possible fatigue and advantageously shade a sense of joy.

When preparing for the wedding, it is advisable for the mother of the bride to discuss with her daughter all the nuances of her image. The bride, the main character of the celebration, will tell you how she sees the ideal image of her mother. Wedding make-up masters consider the mother and daughter of a common make-up artist to make the best choice, which, taking into account the age and position of women, will withstand one style, while emphasizing the closeness of family relationships.

The mother of the groom should discuss her image with her son. Even if he cannot suggest anything, he will be pleased that his mother is ready to listen to his opinion.

Due to the fact that with age the skin changes, becoming dry and unhealthy, it is advisable to prepare it for such a crucial event by paying attention to skin nutrition (especially in winter) and hydration (in summer). Age nourishing creams and masks will be a good help for this.

With my own hands, it is unlikely that my mother can make a high-quality make-up for herself: the excitement that is natural at this time will not allow the make-up lines to lie evenly and neatly. It is better to seek professional help.

Mom's makeup must withstand the emotional outbursts of this day, when tears of joy and sadness are ready to spoil the efforts of the makeup artist every second.

Tips for a perfect mom look:

• the color scheme of cosmetics should be selected in accordance with the color of hair, skin, eyes, clothes; it is better to give preference to restrained classical tones;
• you should pay attention to the seasonal features of makeup: in hot weather, apply a minimum amount of cosmetics, preventing them from spreading;
• it is necessary to carefully approach the choice of tonal foundation, the best option is tonal mousse;
• eyeliner and shadows of dark tones are used only for the outer corners of the eyes;
• apply classic black mascara, painting over only the upper eyelashes;
• make-up must be waterproof;
• it is important not to forget to pay attention to the eyebrows.

According to the traditional laws of classic makeup, the emphasis is either on the lips or on the eyes. In no case should mom's makeup be pretentiously bright, since against such a background the bride may look gray and inconspicuous.

Win-win combinations of shades of gray and lipstick in delicate pastel colors are considered; make-up eyes without the use of shadows only with the help of eyeliner and mascara in combination with bright red lipstick; bright burgundy lipstick is recommended to be used with shades of pastel beige tones.

It is undesirable to use mother-of-pearl decorative products of purple and lilac colors.

If, nevertheless, you have to do makeup yourself, you need to start it by evening out the complexion, since age-related changes can lead to the appearance of unwanted skin pigmentation and wrinkles. If the tinting cream does not hide dark spots, then a corrector can be applied to them under the foundation. The main thing is not to overdo it. The area near the eyes and near the corners of the lips is especially carefully worked out. When choosing a foundation, warm tones should be preferred, as cold shades emphasize wrinkles even more. It is necessary to be very careful when distributing foundation over the face and apply it in a well-lit room.

With eye makeup, it is enough to give the look openness and clarity. It is important to hide the flaws: lift the drooping corners of the eyes and overhanging eyelids, remove wrinkles, give the eyes a beautiful shape. It is recommended to use natural rather than colored tones. It is desirable that they be in the same color palette, for example, from light beige to dark brown. In order to lift the corners of the eyes, it is necessary to apply dark shadows to the outer corners and blend them towards the eyebrows, apply light shadows to the surface of the inner eyelid. To make a smooth transition between colors, use a dense brush to make shading on the border of colors. It is also desirable to shade the pencil.To do this, make arrows with a pencil, and then shade it with a brush with shadows. This will make the eyes mysterious and expressive. To visually lift the overhanging eyelid, you need to draw a line with a soft brown pencil where the crease should be, and then blend it with an upward movement. The density of applying mascara depends on the preferences of women.

Be sure to pay due attention to the eyebrows. If they are very light and rare, you can resort to tattooing. To paint eyebrows in black is permissible only for burning brunettes. A dark brown or gray-black shade is better. When coloring eyebrows with a pencil, it is necessary to move with strokes that look like hairs from the outer part of the eyebrow to the edge. Then lightly blend with an eyebrow brush.

When making up lips, special attention should be paid to the contours. The contour pencil should be from the same color palette as the lipstick, but darker by 1-2 tones. It is preferable to choose colors that are close to natural.

The most important thing in makeup is that the woman herself should like it, she should feel natural. The makeup of the mother of the newlyweds should be rejuvenating and calmly festive.

It is very important that the makeup is in harmony with the outfit. If the mother's dress is short, just above the knee, then the make-up is done as natural as possible with the least amount of decorative cosmetics. This gives the image freshness and youthfulness.

With a long dress, you can add a small amount of sequins, a tonal base and be sure to make eye and lip liners.

An elegant retro dress will look advantageous in combination with a delicate complexion, clearly drawn arrows and fluffy eyelashes.

A wedding is an event that will be remembered for a lifetime. Prepare for it with full responsibility. There are no trifles in this celebration. Of course, the bride and groom are the main ones at the wedding, but parents should also be on top.
