Make-Up

Just have lots of practice seesions! i'm paying someone to do mine and my hair as I am hopeless. I don't have the patience to do it properly

I doing my own, I reccommend:

and

https://www.youtube.com/user/MakeupAdikt (Shes indian but her makeup looks amazing and is probably still very effective on lighter skin)

I think Im going to treat myself to a MAC trial which is £25 redeemable on products

I'm really stuck what to do about make up.... ?....

Where are you going for your mac trial steelgoddess? I'll maybe try something like this and get some new products to help my makeup last longer.

Thanks SteelGoddess looks good I love watching the make-up tutorials Im sure with enough practice I can master it, might be trekking to the local MAC counter soon to stock up lol

I'm getting a professional cos i'm pretty rubbish and very inconsistent with my makeup. sometimes i do a good job sometimes i look crap. no chances on the big day! sounds like u have enough experience, i'm sure you'll be fine! you could try this person for different techniques, or just search for 'wedding makeup tutorial' on youtube.

Glad its helpful, oh also try www.makeuptalk.com i used to post there and alot of the ladies there are MUA's

Am ging to do teh same as you steel goddess! iv wanted a mac trial for ages and could buy myself a whole new make up set with teh cost it would be to have my make up done! getting my hair done prfessionaly though!

probably not a whole new set at MAC prices, more like 2 items ? but it is worth spending a bit more on MAC make up as it lasts for ages and the colours are ace.

NARS is also brilliant.

As long as you are confident and comfortable with doing your own make up I'd say go for it! Just practice lots and invest in some new make up products to play around with. I'd also try and take photos of different make up and looks you practice so you can take a look back at them and see which you really like/dislike - particularly nearer the day as your preferences might change!

Allow plenty of time on the day for doing your make up. When I did mine time seemed to fly and I was a bit nervous so it took me ages. But I didn't really feel like I spent all the time I wanted to perfect it!!
