'Rock Chick' wedding make up?

DarkMoomin, 7 February, 2012 at 14:31 Posted on Planning 0 6

Hi All,

I'm struggling to find pictures for inspiration for my make up trial.

The day has a 'vintage glamour (pirate, geek)' feel, but I am not doing strict vintage int erms of look, its more a distressed vintage inspried look. And at heart I am a rock chick. What I definitely do not want is the oh so natural glamour princess type standard wedding make up. I also don't think the 40's 50's vintage style is appropriate either.

I usually wear pretty heavy eye make up and eyeliner so this won't be out fo the norm for me... I just can't find suitable pictures... most things are way too much, or just 'normal' wedding makeup.

Can anyone inspire me?

Thanks all!

    This is a bit more dramatic than the norm, is it the sort of thing you had in mind?

    Hi Guys,

    Thanks so much.

    Jenny - your one is still a bit to pristine and pretty... if you see what I mean? not quite rough enough.

    The Rocknrollbride site looks great - I feel a lost evening coming on, I have spent ages on offbeatbride and indie bride but not that one! Thanks.

    I think the makeup fo the girl; on the front cover of the makazine is probably closer, but not making me shout YES! yet!

    Cheers! x

    I'm exactly the same! I've asked one of my bridesmaids if she'd help with my make up (she's worked on beauty counters in Debenhams and Selfridges doing makeovers so not all amateur) as she knows what I wear on a day to day basic so will hopefully be able to help me with something similar.

    Everyday I wear heavy black eyeliner and feel naked without it!

    If you have any ideas or find any images please let me know - R&RB didn't help too much for me but it is a good blog! Rock My Wedding is a nice one too!

    Ooo those are good NicolaGrimshaw and Lurvly....

    Think I may want some glitter eyeliner in there (but worried about going over the top for a wedding day...). Oh I'm so indecisive!

    I know what you mean about Rocknrollbride - its very colourful! tho haven't fully looked for makeup inspiration.

    TYhanks guys - I'm waiting for a pinterest account... so once I have that I shall get pinning!!

    Thanks!
