For make to last for a long time on the wedding day here are few of
the basic tips, which might help:
Tools of the Trade
Some special tools you will need, in addition to your regular makeup
supplies:
Water-resistant eyeliner and mascara
lipstick
Eyelid primer
Face Primer
Sheer loose powder
Washcloth
Lipbase
1. Foundation
A base of Face Primer under your foundation will ensure that the
foundation stays for a long time. Always see that the foundation match’s your
skin color perfectly. Blend it properly throughout the face. If the
color is not right then the foundation does not blend properly with
the skin color. Also you could add a dot of shimmer cream into the
foundation before applying for extra glow or shine. There are glow
gels available in the market, which helps the foundation to stay all
day long.
2. For dark circles
The easiest way to hide them is apply
the opposite color from the color applied as base. Also you could
apply light pink shadow in case you have darkness, which is gray.
Make sure the eye shadow color is light in shade and matte. Use a
soft eye shadow brush to dust lightly over the dark circle.
3. Concealer
Concealer is easier to use when you have the perfect
shade. For the concealer to stay for a longer time mix the concealer
shade with a drop of foundation and then apply. This will also make
your skin tone appear in even shade.
The basic trick is to always apply foundation and then blot the
foundation to remove oil. Then set with pressing powder to keep the
make up on for a long time.
4. Powder
Never apply too much powder, as it will make your skin
sweat and also appear oily. So apply lightweight oil free powder,
which does not make you sweat a lot.
5. Blush
Apply blush with a brush that is the size of the apple of
your cheek for perfect application. Slowly blend back the blush
towards the temple. When you done applying, take a clean sponge to
blend and remove the excess. Make sure not to apply too much of
blush make it look natural.
In case you have applied too much, slightly dampen a sponge and
clean off as much as you can. You can either use moisturizer or
water on the sponge, which will remove the excess color.
6. Long Lasting Lipstick
For the lipstick to last all day, applies a lip base or
chapstick, then powder your lips before applying lip pencil filling.
Also if you have crack then, apply foundation on your lips first
then the lipstick. The foundation helps to fill in cracks to form an
even base. After applying lipstick remove the excess by blotting.
Once finished, apply a light coat of lip-gloss, if desired in the
middle of the bottom lip right before you walk out the door.
7. Eyebrows
Incase you have light eyebrows, brush and fill
with shades that are one or two shades lighter than your natural
eyebrow color. Use a toothbrush afterwards for more natural look. If
you want you eyes to glow use a shine gel to set your eyebrows.
8. Eye Makeup
An eyelid primer is a great way to ensure that your eye makeup lasts
really long. Follow it with eye shadow. After doing your eyebrow apply a soft
shimmering cream or white on your brow bone, and inner corners of
you’re eyes, both above and below the lashes. This highlights your
eyes. Take mascara and an eyeliner brush to lightly line the eye
with the mascara. Make sure you use waterproof mascara and curl your
lashes.
For touch up during the day, carry a little bit of your loose powder
and press into a powder puff. Store it in a zip lock bag along with
gloss. This will help you with touch ups during the day.
