Makeup Choices for my wedding?

Question

I don't know what brand of makeup to use for my wedding day! I have used Bare Minerals and now I use TrueMatch for everyday makeup.

I have sensitive, combination skin so something that is light and healthy is what I'm after. Something that isn't going to wash me out of pictures bc I'm completely pale( no i dun want a tan :) )
I'm kinda looking at Maybeline, but I dont know and I can't just try them all! (I wish I could!)

So any ladies that have the same skin type or have been married, let me know what you think (and name) of the makeup you wore/wear. Thanks!

Answer 1

I have sensitive skin, and have always had a bad reactiion to Maybeline makeup. Now is not the time to change brands. Experiment with how much, and which colors to use in the brands you know don't cause you problems.
For a wedding, and wedding photos you should apply jusst a little more color than usual. People will be seeing you at a distance, and the flash of photos will really wash you out.
Try some photos from a disposable camera, if you don't have another one. That will help you see how you will look on camera. Also, get as far from an indoor mirror as you can, and see if you can still see your eyes and other features. You can also have friends look at you from a distance to see what they think. Have a great wedding, and an even better life.

Answer 2

If i where u, i would call a local store that sells make-up, and make an appt with them for your wedding day make up (like a week before your big day) That way, if you dont like it, u can go somewhere else and try again, and are not stuck with a look that u could possibly not like. just remember that the makeup is going to be kind of heavy, and that it doesnt wear off during the day..

good luck!

i really imagine determination one for makeup is tremendous. Charlize Theron's makeup seems organic, yet nevertheless very glamorous. The eyes in this image are subtle, yet nevertheless smokey and horny. As for the hair, i imagine that option for 4 is acceptable. recommendations 2 and three look slightly busy. option 4 seems stylish, yet nevertheless exciting because of the curls. i imagine a small tiara also seems useful and makes the coiffure look extra formal. sturdy success, and characteristic an awesome wedding ceremony! i'm hoping my suggestion helps :)

Answer 4

I use Mayebelline Dream Matte Mousse when i do where foundation and i love it it feels and looks so natural on your skin. You don't need a lot to cover and it will last all day, it will cover but it will look so natural, they also make blushes and shadows in the mousse that are also good. They range from about six dollars to eight dollars and that is with tax included. Hope this helps.

I would suggest you go to MAC the makeup specialists help you decide there. If you don't know how to put on make up they draw step by step on a board. They teach you how to do it and then they draw it so you can do it yourself at home. I know you will look beautiful at your wedding because every bride is the star of that day.
