1. Wrong Shade Of Foundation
Choosing the right shade sometimes can be really hard. We all want to achieve that „natural look“ and don`t look like a ghost or opposite like orange. A good trick for finding the perfect shade is to try it on your neck or on the back of your hand. Another thing, you should try it in daylight, because, the store lighting usually changes colors and you can turn out red.
If you have oily skin you should use light foundation, and oil free, that will allow your skin to breathe. You should also check out foundations with matte finish. If your skin is dry you should prep your skin with moisturizing creams, and choose cream or liquid foundation.
2. Too Much Eye Makeup
This is the biggest mistake that brides make. Too much eye makeup or even wrong eyeshadow color, can lead you to look like a clown. And you don`t want that, right? We recommend shades of brown, earth tones or gold. Blend them well.
3. Wrong Shade Of Blush
Your blush shade is important like your foundation shade. There is thin line between looking natural and looking clownish. How to choose right one? For fair skin we recommend baby pink blush or peach. You can`t go wrong with that. And for olive skin, bronze and rose shade.
Tip: For natural-looking glow, use creamy blush. It is so easy to use, blendable, and your skin will look so soft, dewy and fresh.
4. Unnatural EyeBrows
Eyebrows can really transform the whole look. Remember when Dr. Cristina Yang from Grey’s Anatomy remove her eyebrows, she looked hilarious.
Don`t over-pluck your brows, this was the 90s trend, but not any more. Thin brows will make you look older, so drop the tweezers and let your brows grow out. You should also make sure that your brow filler looks natural and believable, avoid dark colors. Another thing, and we would say rule, you should always blend your brows.
5. Contouring Gone Wrong
Thanks to Kim Kardashian, contouring became a big makeup trend. It helps you to define and highlight your face in most feminine way. But it is not as easy as it looks. Applying to much highlighter or choosing too dark bronzer. The list of mistakes is too long. How to avoid that? Choose bronzer with matte finish that is a shade darker than your skin tone and blend it well for a natural look.
Tips:
- You should always go on makeup trial at least three months before the wedding.
- Test your make up before wedding.
- Ask your family or friends if they can recommend a great makeup artist.
