Choosing your wedding make up: What you need to know
Choosing the look of the perfect bridal makeup can be difficult and overwhelming. If you plan to make up for your wedding, it's best to choose your inspiration in advance. We’ve asked the pros at Orchid Blush Bridal Team and here are their proven tips:
1. Choose a theme for your wedding
Are you going boho, rustic, classic or will you be having a winter wedding? Consider if you are also having an indoor or outdoor wedding. Will it be during day or night? Every factor should complement your look.
2. Save inspirations and create a dream wedding make up board
A lot of times you aren’t sure of what you really want. Search for your red carpet inspiration from celebrities or look into Pinterest and create a board for your desired wedding look. Will you go for a smokey eye or a natural look?
3. Consider your wedding dress
Your wedding dress can influence your wedding look. For example a glam wedding ball gown goes best with red carpet make up, whereas a casual wedding dress goes best with natural bridal look. No matter what your preference is with your look, plan it with your wedding gown.
4. Consult a professional bridal team
When you have No.1 – No.3 all planned out, it’s time to consult a professional bridal team as early as 6-8 months before the wedding. Book a trial and see what make up look best suits you. Specify what you want to look and what you don’t want. It’s better to see your look beforehand and make some changes rather than being nervous during the day. If you are still unsure of how you want to look, seek advice from the bridal team and they will show you their previous work.
