Wedding day make up

Stephanie-Ann, on January 25, 2020 at 3:01 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 2 63
So I want people's opinions on wedding day makeup. Should you go neutral and basic or go all out? My theme is red and grey and I really wanted to have my makeup match my wedding colors. Would that be tacky though? Your thoughts please!

    That's what I'm afraid of! I dont want to over do it at all amd take anything away from my dress or the whole attire but I can rock the crap out of some red eyeshadow lol or even just red lipstick.

    Maybe just red lipstick however if you hire a make up artist or know about makeup yourself you would know how to coordinate it reguardless

    I would not mix red and gray in make up but honestly ask your make up artist. I would suggest maybe do grey toe bails and red lipstick like the pp said so you are incorporating your colors. For me I prefer natural wedding make up over glam but each person is different.

    I get it I think I might just go for red lipstick and natural eye shadow maybe a light smoky eye?

    Well I did go to beauty school amd learned how to do all sorts of different makeup and i know it's not traditional to do glam makeup on your wedding day but maybe do a smoky eye w red lipstick.

    A neutral gray with red lipstick would be divine! Unless you’re having a glam or themed wedding, then glam up that makeup! 💋

    I think a light smokey eye and red lips would be nice and still a classic look but a bit modern.

    I did red lipstick, If you go all neutral you’ll look really pretty up close and from far away it’ll be hard to see your features. Wedding day make up 1

    Yes it was worth it 100%. The hardest part was buying all the red mattes at Ulta to find the right fit 😅

    Oh my gosh I know the struggle! I think I might already have a good mate red from ulta. I definitely need to get colors for the grey smoky eye though. I'm oober picky with my eye shadow colors. Plus ulta is heaven lol. Thanks for you response and help!

    My colors are mystic grey and plum. I found a make up way I want to do mine but same boat as you. Unsure if it’s what I want to do. I really do like it. I’m just the basic chick eye liner, base(sometimes lol), and mascara 🤷‍♀️. So my wedding day plan to make it pop

    Yeah I totally get it. I dont wear much makeup now adays so I'd kinda like to go all out for my big day. But I really dont want to look tacky or over done. My aunts going to do my makeup bc were on a tight budget so idk what I should do. 🙁
