Re: Wedding Day Makeup! Please PIP!
I don't know what I want yet, but I need to decide soon!
Part of me wants something that will pop, kind of like this:
But I don't know... I'm a little worried that if I cry a lot, that would be more likely to look terrible than a more neutral look would.
I can't decide about false lashes either. I think they make a huge impact in photos, but my FI hates the idea of them, and I don't want to scare him with them! I am undecided.
l,
Definitely no false eyelashes for me. Just mascara on the top, eyeliner and gray eyeshadow. For lips, a light pink or nude lipstick with gloss.
I realized that all of my photos from my trial are kind of tiny, but I went with just slightly more than natural in terms of makeup.
Here's a photo:
PS - I HATE MY HAIR MORE AND MORE NOW!! hahaha
[QUOTE]here's me after my makeup trial (ahh first post with my actual picture in it!). I'm going to ask for a bit less eyeliner under my eyes for the wedding. Most indian brides wear dramatic makeup so I think this is a good compromise. <strong>I let my fiance see me after and he though my makeup was a bit much (only because he loves me with no makeup on).</strong> I have fake eyelashes on in the picture (my first time wearing them). I took them off later and took another picture. It totally made a difference in photos (in a bad way) so I will be wearing fake eyelashes for the wedding. I might just take them off after pictures though because I feel like I could catch an bug with them!

I am afraid my FI would say the same, so I'm scheduling my trial for a day that I'm not going to see him! I think your make-up looks perfect, definitely not too dramatic at all!

Thanks! I didn't have a problem with him seeing me. I actually wanted his opinion, even if I wasn't going to agree with it. At least he knows what to expect. But either way, I'm sure he'd still like the way I look. It would be fun too to surprise him like you are doing!
I usually just were the pretty plain ones, but I think I am going to try these http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P114418&categoryId=B70
and sexier looks with more intense and unique eyes, like this;
(only with more purples instead of pinks)
or this:
(only with not as much black).
I also love when skin has the "dewy" finish to it, like this:
I just don't want dewy and pretty to translate into sweaty looking and gross later on....
I also FOR SURE need false lashes! I wore them in our engagement pictures and LOVED them...except for a few super close-up shots and a shot that our photographer took from above our heads, looking down, where you could tell they were fake. I just glued on a simple strip of them, and I think the single lashes like bridetobe was talking about can be used to look a LOT more natural, while still giving the effect of much longer lashes.
