Bold, dramatic, or natural makeup?

Maren, on November 27, 2018 at 4:05 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 34

Is a bold red lipstick or dark smokey eyeshadow your style? Or will you be going more natural when you’re all dolled-up on the big day?

What is your wedding day makeup style? Which inspo picture is your favorite? Bold, dramatic, or natural?

    I think my look is more glam.

    I don’t really think any of those fits my make up look.

    I'm going super glam for my wedding. But then, I always wear bold eye makeup, so if I went more subtle/natural, it wouldn't look like me. But I won't do lipstick, probably just gloss. I don't wear it often and will surely smear it all over my face if I wore it on the big day.

    Hi Kenisha! How would you describe your makeup look? Do you have any inspo pictures? Smiley smile

    Natural, because my hubby hates a lot of make-up. If we had a two-day event though, I would have worn a dramatic makeup look on a 2nd night! Or, I wish I could have afforded to have the MUA stay so after my ceremony I could have done a dramatic look.

    I can't decide! I love a bold lip for special occasions/date nights, but I don't wear a ton of make-up day-to-day and I still want to look like myself.

    I usually pick a more natural look with a subtle Smokey eye for my go to formal makeup look, and will be DIYing my makeup and wil probably stick with that, as I love how it looks and makes me feel! I will just add falsies to make the eyes really pop!

    That's great, Stephanie! Smiley heart The combination of a natural look with a smoldery, smokey eye sounds absolutely lovely! Smiley heart I am so happy to hear you feel so beautiful this way! You're going to look stunning on your wedding day and we are so excited for you!

    Because our wedding is during an early summer afternoon, I will have a natural make up look. Most days I don’t wear make up and when I do, it’s rarely a bold look!

    I'm hoping for natural with a bolder smokey eye maybe like this?
    Eyeshadow/mascara is really the only makeup I ever wear so it will be right up my alley.

    Me too, Claire! Smiley heart I am always more natural when I do wear makeup, which isn't super often either!

    I'll definitely be going with pretty natural looking makeup! I almost never wear any makeup so I want to keep my makeup to a minimum. I'll definitely wear some though.

    Thanks Maren. You know that I'm having a peacock themed wedding so I do want to play up my eyes but I'm a little worried that it may be too much since my wedding will be held in the day time.
